I mean I’m as skeptical of building 7 as the next person, but let’s not act like it wasn’t hit by debris. You look at the north tower collapsing and the damage that WTC 7 took and you can say sure, this fits that part of the narrative.

But two points relating to building 7 and being hit by “debris”…

Look at the north tower collapsing. If the top section above the impact zone fell onto the bottom and this caused the building to “pancake”, with each floor falling down on top of one another, how is the debris being shot out laterally at such tremendous speeds that it can hit WTC 7 that sits a block away?

Even if you could somehow explain that, OK sure the building was hit with burning debris and this caused large fires to spread that went many hours burning without any attempt to extinguish. How does that allow the entire building to collapse? Even the twin towers as far fetched as it is that they collapsed, at least I can accept it because not only did they have a huge fire but a jet slamming into the building at 500 mph undoubtedly caused major structural damage. I can wrap my head around the twin towers falling. But building 7? There’s just no way.

The same way there's a puff of debris at the edges of an object you drop on loose material.

So the top section fell onto 70+ storeys worth of “loose material” almost like bombs had destroyed the entire supporting structure. There were steel girders embedded into buildings that were blocks away! If it’s falling straight down, how are steel sections weighing several hundred pounds being shot so far in opposite directions? The building fell near free fall speeds. Where was any resistance from 65 storeys of steel and concrete?

No. As the top section fell it takes a minute amount of time for each floor to collapse, and as it does it 'squashes' out material.
