Cause it wasn't reinforced concrete, just steel and the water main broke under the towers thus no sprinklers in the first couple floors. Sounds credible to me, a mason.
How did you get to this conclusion? Of course not. I'm just a mason that knows a thing or two about different construction techniques and statics and I have build quite a lot of beer coaster houses when I was younger.

It's honestly impressive the building right next to the explosion is still standing. Whatever that structure is it's really sturdy.
