While there is a wide range of possible explanations for the collapse of the South Tower (2 WTC) before the North (1 WTC), it is believed that the lower impact of the plane on the tower (a full 15 stories under the same point on 1 WTC) and the passing of shrapnel and parts of the plane through three of four floor beams weakened the structure at an accelerated rate and brought 2 WTC down before its counterpart.
