Almost all the video & still shots of WTC 7 were taken from the north side of the building. The area on the south side, which faced the towers, had been evacuated for safety reasons. Very few shots were taken from that side, but those few pix show extensive damage over about 20 floors caused when large portions of the south (?) tower struck the south face of #7. The other 4 buildings were also destroyed by falling debris & fire, though none of them collapsed - probably because they were concrete beam supported. As mentioned by others, thousands of gallons of diesel fuel were also stored in #7. Those pictures also show extensive fire & smoke pouring from the side of the building which would not have been easily seen from the north side views.
No skyscraper has ever collapsed due to fire before, so having 3 collapse in 1 day seems a long coincidence. The debate over the heat of oil fires opposed to the melting point of steel was declared moot, however, when that overpass at the SF Bay/Oakland Bridge collapsed due solely to a gasoline tanker fire about 3 months ago. I would have to say it is possible those buildings were brought down by explosives, like so many believe, but it is not the only possible explanation.
The 9-11 Commission Report comes way short of explaining what happened that day. Eight of the eleven Commission members evidently believe the same because they have signed a petition to reopen the investigation, along with many other government & military experts. Sneak a peek at the link below.

The steel structure and supports, involved in the initial impact, melted as a result of intense heat, and as one floor collapsed onto the next bottom floor, a chain reaction occurred. No floor could support the falling floors from above, causing all the floors to collapse, bringing down the walls with them.
The heat melting the steel at impact is why it took a few minutes after impact to collapse.
Those aircraft were loaded with 5,000, or more, pounds of fuel.

It had a great hollow in it and it become on hearth. i've got seen movies of the give way and that i've got seen movies of controlled demolition. there is not any assessment. "BBC suggested development 7 Had Collapsed 20 minutes earlier It Fell. How ought to that have befell?" The logical clarification is that a document that WTC 7 become broken have been given gone with the aid of numerous different agencies and throughout a technique of "chinese language whispers" grew to become "WTC 7 has collapsed". yet you probable do not prefer to pay attention logical motives. what's your option? that somebody on the secret 9/11 coordination centre suggested "hi, we are approximately to explode WTC 7, get me the telephone, I ought to call the BBC"? The development become in complete view of a million/2 the television cameras in great apple. Why the hell might they might desire to tell every physique it had fallen down?

I think debris from one of the other towers may have fallen onto tower 7 causing it to catch on fire which brought it down all together
