Fire out, no casualities found yet. https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/16/china/changsha-skyscraper-fire-intl-scli/index.html
Buildings shouldn't be able to burn like this. Assuming they were built to code. :)

Well they didnt collapse at free fall speed like American towers somehow do.

Yeah thought the same thing. I remember seeing Tower 7 go down with like.. 2 rooms on fire lol. Maybe our fires in America are just stronger than those weak asian fires.

it was built in the 1990s, their building code didn't outlaw that type of cladding until 2000

it's weird it looks like the exterior is burning rather than flames coming from out of windows. thought maybe bamboo rebar but the smoke is too black. maybe more likely some sort of plastic-based outer cladding?
