SS: Full structure fires across multiple high rise buildings in Hong Kong occurred Wednesday. Just as with so many other major fire outbreaks in high rise buildings like this, no collapse of the structure has occurred. This is of course a precedent only broken by the collapse of the two world trade towers and other structures on September 11, 2001, which was attributed to fire and only took a few hours to bring the buildings down at free fall speed into their own footprints. However, these fires in Hong Kong went for multiple days.

They’ll only collapse when a plane hits them. Besides, the perpetrators forgot their IDs, so that’s not going to happen anytime soon.
