Angular momentum of the tipping top vanished.

The gravitational energy was not enough.
When the south tower's top started to tip to the side, the force from that should haved stayed to that side of the tower.
If the opposite side of the tower from the tilted top portion was still intact, it would have made sense.

To prove this for your self: Take a broom balance it upright on your hand. Allow it to start tipping. Remove your hand from underneath it. The rotation will stop and the broom will fall to the ground at the same angle it was when you released it.

The excersise you just described shows zero resistance, which is why the broom fell that way.
This is why the tower fell the way it did. The resistance was gone.
Should have toppled.

Yes your the consultant. Never hear much from you.
If your taking responsibility for the whole project then why do you require each shop drawing to be stamped by each trade engineer.
I think you take the credit. Not the responsibility. But at least I got some fight out of you.

Well explain building 7 which fell the same way. Explain the videos and testiomonies of firefighters and employees that witnessed bombs throughout the building and basements. i.e. William Rodriguez

I have seen some silly arguments from "awakened minds" around 9-11 but this one might be the dumbest.
Watch the videos and see all the sad souls that choice jumping from the top of a skyscraper vs burning to death.
Probably a reason for that.
Argument By Laziness (Argument By Uninformed Opinion):
the arguer hasn't bothered to learn anything about the topic.
He nevertheless has an opinion, and will be insulted if his opinion is not treated with respect.
For example, someone looked at a picture on one of my web pages, and made a complaint which showed that he hadn't even skimmed through the words on the page. When I pointed this out, he replied that I shouldn't have had such a confusing picture.
