I wanted to know if a steel highrise can topple over at all and so I did some simulations. Actually I did similar tests already in the year 2000, but now I watopnted to redo this for all those of you, who have learned that large buildings can tip over like trees from recognized physicists such as Michael Bay or Roland Emmerich. Don't get me wrong, we all love their movies, however, their physics is often beyond plausibility.
These structures have been simulated with the properties of structural steel using the BCB structural simulation software for Blender.
