Moscow Tallest Building Burns - But Doesn't Collapse.
Since September 11, 2001, when the twin towers collapsed, it had been assumed that all tall buildings that catch fire will probably collapse. It didn't happen when Moscow's tallest building, Federation Tower, which was still under construction went up in flams. The fire raged for hours all night but the building still stood. Does make one consider the possiblities of other affects on the reason of the twin towers both going down.

It's not too smart to compare things which are in different leagues, like an A-bombing of Hiroshima and (even!) a nuclear plant breakdown in Fukushima. The nature and scales of disasters are sort of different, to put it mildly. Quote: "Moscow's tallest building, Federation Tower, which was still under construction went up in flames". Jeez, it was construction materials and protective sheets burning on the top floor. That's it. Nothing even close to the twin towers' case.
