Yep Jet fuel on the floor and intense heat, the clue is debris being forced out the windows...the fireproofing was probably mangled and therefore not effective. At 1000 degrees Celsius the columms, support structures would be melting causing the floor to collapse. Like I said it would have been the heat that would have been the real problem and not the impact so much IMHO.
