Heat rises, and the towers 110 story design caused the top several floors to literally became a blast furnace that was hotter than fire could be expected to get. There were fires throughout the entire towers. The elevator shafts were blown-out and filled with flaming jet fuel throughout all 110 stories of both buildings. The upper floors began collapsing, adding weight exponentionally to the lower floors supporting them.

IIRC, the tower that was hit second came down first. How did that happen?

it was hit more in the center and lower in height so the weight it was supporting over the damaged area was higher.
