I am aware of that. The thing that destroyed the buildings, as far as I can recall, is that the heat from the combustion of the remaining jet fuel and the massive amounts of paper, furniture, and other flammables, allowed the deformation of steel beams inside the building. I think it was the inferno that destroyed the building, not the shock of an airplane impact. The buildings took the airplane impacts very well, but they couldn't withstand the fires afterward.
