That's ridiculously incompetent, but I'd hardly call it a 'tower collapsing.'

As others have said, someone likely did absolutely shit work on the roof.

The 650 year old portions are fine, the roofing that fell off was likely done in the last few years.

'We have ancient Chinese construction at home.'

Unless they’re friends with the CCP. Then a scapegoat is getting executed instead.

Somebody repaired that roof using modern Chinese construction materials and techniques.

They probably used plaster of Paris and chicken wire instead of concrete and rebar.

I like how everyone directly below stays where they are staring up at the roof collapsing on them. Quick thinkers this lot.

The roofing tiles fell off, that's it. There is no structural damage.

If you look at it, you can see part of the roof is already lower than the rest of the parts before it starts sliding down. I think that collapsed
