NIST video showing computer simulated collapse and some brief explanation

Honestly, it looks like their simulations don't reflect the video reality. They show a 2D model of a progressive right-to-left collapse, but the building would have taken longer to fall, viewed from some angle. Strangly, all angles of video footage of WTC7 show what appears to be the same speed even collapse. Support structure that had not been compromised would have given something of a load-spreading effect, causing an uneven collapse. It would be understandable that such an uneven collapse might not be viewable from every angle, since dust and smoke might hide taller parts of the building until they fell, but there's no such video evidence.
Even NIST's own simulations don't reflect reality!
And remeraber, all you "conspiracy theorists" that believe in the government-generated media-parroted conspiracy theory, debris did not cause structural damage. Even in the NIST video above, the debris was only responsible for starting fires on the lower levels of the building. A fascinating improbability, since the same debris didn't seem to start fires in the lower floors of every other building it fell on. Additionally, the fire suppression system was working in part of the building. I wonder if some of the fire suppression system ever kicked on from all the heat and smoke that had been rising through the interior? Not sure we'll ever have that answer.

Anyone else have more building fire / collapse examples?
