not to mention radiant heat as a source of ignition for the materials in wtc-7.
Fire may burn straight up and a majority of it's heat goes up as well, but it also emits heat in every other direction.
No wind involved.
try lighting your lighter and holding your hand next to the flame in a room without ventilation.
You won't be immediately burnt as if you'd put your hand above the flame, but you'll definitely feel the heat as it radiates away from the source.
Now imagine a gigantic ball of flaming jet fuel and tell me it only burns what it is directly in contact with.

lol you guys are missing the point....the way in which it fell means the top floors were encountering zero resistance when they were falling as the entire building fell at free fall speed...explosives were used to blow out the lower floors....EZ
btw, haunted there is no hope for you....unless you take physics 101...

No explosves required for that effect.
The damaged floors could no longer support the upper floors.

then it should have taken longer for the collapse....i agree that some of the floors could not handle the weight, but if that was the case, the collapse would have been a lot different- it would NOT have falled at free fall speed.

Titties, drop your ego and a ping pong ball from 6 ft in the air...even though your ego weighs 20 tons, it will hit the ground at the same time as the ping pong ball. Duh.

It took over 15 seconds for the building to collapse anyways, I don't get what you're saying by 'free for all speed' lol..
