But perhaps what you might not know is that video had been edited. Frames 23 - 27 had been reversed, where the grey squiggle that some suggest is exhaust gas has in fact been moved in the sequence. You really do not see a Boeing 757 - 200.
A point to note in this video, it is before the further collapse of the Pentagon building which rarely gets seen. Most film is after the further facade collapse and makes the destruction look greater. A 757 has a wing span of 125ft, the damage here does not show that.

Uh, my take is this was the post-collapse. Prior to this the damage was a hole about 30ft diameter centered about ceiling level of ground floor.
You are indeed correct anon, my mistake this WAS AFTER it had collapsed. I just looked at some other images and indeed there was little destruction.
My apologies, I'll leave the original up though as I don't mind admitting being wrong.
Here's one before the facade collapses as you said. https://www.allmystery.de/i/tYCCAE4_GksquH_PentBW.jpg
