From initial images i thought it was just like, the side of a building or something. But no, if im looking at this right, more than half this building collapsed.

Buildings sometimes get pulled down due to structural issues. While terrorism isn't out of the question, I wouldn't jump to that conclusion yet. To my knowledge no one has reported hearing any sort of explosion.

He's mocking the crazies because you KNOW there are experts sitting on their couch right now who've realized this is a government operation to test a new material that can bring buildings down silently...

You would think there would be signs of structural failure. I can’t imagine a design flaw or construction failure that would collapse an entire building would go unnoticed.

Yesterday in DC a pedestrian bridge over 295 collapsed.
We got some good old infrastructure in this country.

My unprofessional guess is that a sinkhole is the culprit.

My guess in Florida like many places they drilled pilasters to stabilize the ground under a multi story building in Florida known to be unstable soil prone to sinkholes.

This is a crack monitor standard method for monitoring subsurface concrete columns and walls. Used by structural engineers all over the world.
![]() My guess is failure in a concrete column or beam many things could probably cause this.

I don't even like to think about sinkholes. Sinkholes and spontaneously appearing black holes are two ways to die that seem particularly cruel.
