Good video and I count 19 floors which at a maximum of 14' per floor (common construction metric) the distance is 266'. That's about 20% less than Doug's quoted distance of 100 meters or 328 feet which blows his theory.

Either way, it's clear that the failure was at a lower level in the case of building 7 so obviously it would fall quickly with little air resistance.

A total non-starter if you ask me.
