The South Tower collapsed first because it was struck lower (impacting more load-bearing columns) and at higher speed, causing more severe structural damage. The fire spread rapidly due to jet fuel, weakening the steel. Though hit second, its compromised structure failed before the North Tower, collapsing after 56 minutes.
