Footage of WTC7 falling was what made me investigate further into the entire incident.
Not everything has to be believed, but if anyone comes away from the entire thing with anything other than that there was clearly some fuckery involved, I don't know what to say.
“The principal conclusion of our study is that fire did not cause the collapse of WTC 7 on 9/11, contrary to the conclusions of NIST and private engineering firms that studied the collapse. The secondary conclusion of our study is that the collapse of WTC 7 was a global failure involving the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.”
was a global failure involving the near-simultaneous failure of every column in the building.
That's common. Once some of the columns have failed, the rest now have to carry the weight of the entire building. Often that force is at odd angles they aren't designed for, too. So they fail too.

Definitely. WTC7 still makes no sense to this day. Here's a really good read about WTC7 by a team of engineers:

Here's a quick video clip for those unfamiliar:

Read their report.
These are some of the brightest engineers in the world from two different schools collaborating. You're sorely mistaken.
I decide to skim through the report.
It's pretty bad that they mention almost no damage to the structure of the building at all, despite major structural damage to the building.
I suspect that that wrong assumption probably has an effect on their conclusions.
