Yeah, it was totally an Airplane... For sure.

So it fell nearly perfectly (not folding over) at freefall speed. Maybe the lower floors would buckle, sure, but at freefall speed it means they're offering zero resistance.
What the fuck does this look like to you?

What is "freefall speed?" What speed should a 110 story building collapse at? How much resistance should 90+ floors offer 10 floors above falling over on them? That 10 floors is a giant ass wrecking ball.
Freefall speed is the speed it would take gravity alone to bring something to the ground.
Any amount of resistance should make a fall a little slower than that.
Ok, then you can put your mind at ease. It took 11 seconds vs a 9.2 seconds freefalling from 1,368ft with an initial velocity of zero.
Maybe you could build something that collapses slower than that with the weight of 10 floors (22,000-55,000 tons without office equipment) crashing down on the lower floors on the same budget.
