Original Note:
The collapse was due to intense fire in Bldg 7 started by falling debris, not a demolition. The BBC reported the collapse of World Trade Center 7 before it actually occurred; however the mistake was due to a reporting error, not foreknowledge or a demolition. https://fullfact.org/online/bbc-world-trade-center-7-september-11/ https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/a-bbc-reporting-error-is-not-proof-the-network-was-part-of-an-inside-job-on-9-11/ https://www.nist.gov/el/final-reports-nist-world-trade-center-disaster-investigation
