Original Note:
When the WTC towers collapsed, each floor would collapse on top of each other as the buildings came down. This would generate outwards forces to all sides (in this case the bursts pointed out in the picture) because of the intense friction as shown in this simulation: https://youtu.be/4_J7ak_IZXk?si=T9h56abdfctVUWZ2 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collapse_of_the_World_Trade_Center
