Ok, that Can't be Good

Big buildings do lots of things well. Tipping over and splatting into the mud isn't one of them. With picture!

Good lord. I didn't even think it was possible to make a high-rise that could tip over completely, instead of collapsing into its own footprint. Even after being hit with airplanes, the WTC didn't do that.

The building has to have been constructed around a single central support column instead of being supported at the corners, which is a sign of not just shoddy building materials, but really horrible architectural planning. If I was living in one of the other similar-looking buildings in the picture, I would be moving as far away from the place as I possibly could.
