1. As usual YouTube is wrong
Floors 4 through 9 suffered partial collapse and/or fire damage. Floors 1-3 were undamaged. Some of the collapse was due to impact from steel and debris from World Trade Center 1 (North Tower). Other collapsed sections were due to fire damage. Portions of internal collapse and burnout were found on upper floors, mainly floors 6-8. The exterior facade suffered severe fire damage. The upper floors (5-9) were on fire after the second tower collapse.

3. I guess that is possible as WIki is not flawless
but, if I'm choosing between a youtube video based solely on one persons (and a willfully ignorant CT'er to boot) view verses Wiki, that has literally hundreds if not thousands of folks trying to get the information correct. I'm going with Wiki on this one.

4. FEMA is probably a better source for information about WTC5 than wikipedia.
Chapter 4 (PDF 3.38MB) of their World Trade Center Building Performance Study is about WTC4, WTC5, and WTC6.

5. I remember that, wildbill.....
and maybe I'll be able to find the newsclip on YouTube or somewhere.

I remember sitting there surfing through all the major networks on 9/11, and more than one reporter and cameraman was focusing on WTC 5, and I specifically remember them saying that many were worried it was going to collapse. That baby was burning!!!!

(BTW, I don't have time to watch your video, but I don't need to see it to know. :) )

Gotta go vote!!! :hi:

6. Examining WTC5 (Building 5)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjykKWWEs3w
Serious fires raged through WTC 5 for hours. Despite the massive structural damage shown by the holes, and fires far more severe than those in WTC 1, 2, and 7, WTC 5 did not collapse.

8. It's incredible how much of the WTC complex of buildings the perpetrators want us to believe
was destroyed as the result of two "commercial airliners" hitting the towers as you can see in the following video.

9. Whats even more incredible
is just how clever the folks who make these videos imagine they are, and how fucking stupid they think the rest of us must be.
