The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center collapsed in succession on September 11, 2001. The South Tower (WTC 2) fell first at 9:59 AM, about 56 minutes after being struck by American Airlines Flight 175. The North Tower (WTC 1) collapsed next at 10:28 AM, approximately 102 minutes after being hit by American Airlines Flight 11. The sequence of the collapses was primarily due to differences in structural damage and fire conditions following the impacts.

Why did the tower next to the twin towers fall when it had nothing to do with it?

The "official" story was that building 7 fell due to damage from falling debris from the twin towers. Amazingly this 3rd building fell straight down into itself just as the twin towers did. 3 buildings damaged at different points and damaged for different periods of time all fell the EXACT same way. You be the judge and see if this is actually what happened!
