I did see your video and it was less than a minute long of a fireman talking to the camera.

I agree 100%. Fire alone didn't bring down the building. Fire as well as a plane filled with jet fuel, traveling hundreds of miles per hour when hitting the building brought down the building. The steel doesn't have to melt - it just has to be sufficiently weakened due to the fire and the stress on the remaining support beams being increased due to a number of them being severed.
The fireman video is better evidence than the guy who owned the building saying pull it, which is a term used by some people in demolition. Something I assume he was not.
