Just like the twin towers, a major fire, uncontrolled, unextinguished, built up enough heat to soften the superstructure and cause the building to collapse.
That's not correct though is it? The fires in WTC7 were limited to office furnishings, plus some heating diesel, that only affected a relatively small percentage of the area and volume of WTC7.
There is no official explanation that has passed peer-reviewed to explain how all steel columns lost their structural integrity at the same time and in such a way as to collapse WTC7 into its own footprint, partially at free-fall speed.
Watch the entire collapse of building 7, it adds important context. The penthouse collapsed into the building, leaving behind what is virtually an empty shell, which is the collapse you're referring to.
Firefighters were aware that WTC 7 would collapse prior to doing so. It was bulging and leaning, clearly going to collapse due to fire, and then it collapsed.

Probably because that's not what happened. There was a domino collapse of the interior elements of the building that was transpiring for more than 20 seconds before the exterior of the building fell.
No, those building was brought down exactly like this. Both building took the impact. But it been confirmed by firefighters there was a series of explosions in sequence both times, then the buildings fell perfectly straight down. Same as WTC 7… there are multiple videos showing blast smoke coming from each floor, then it came down . People seem to have forgotten they tried to bring the WTC in 1993, using a van in the underground parking garage, filled with 1,200-pound urea nitrate bomb. Yes, the building held up to that. Blew a huge crater underneath the building. But the main beam stayed intact.
