If you drop something from the top of the WTC, it takes about 10 seconds for it to hit the ground. The only way for the building to collapse that fast is if the upper floors encountered no resistance from lower floors as they fell, i.e. the lower floors were already falling before the upper floors "hit" them. The buildings did not "pancake" down, they were demolished with a sequence of timed explosive charges... or they exist in some other dimension where gravity has different rules.
