While falling, it could possibly be explained as a reflection while the building is popping out a window pane (angle changes, and reflects) but you would see alot more reflections if that were the case due to the amount of windows. Or maybe an electrical surge as something on that floor is crushed. It happens before the building starts falling however, i'm more likely to accept that these are placed charges used to weaken the building.

Clearly i am implicating. Are you 100% certain what those flashes were? I'm certainly not, and that is why i'm saying there are several possibilities. It is my belief that these are probably late detonation charges due to the fact that no building in history has fallen at freefall speed due to office fires. Put one and one together and you get that answer.

This clip shows a flash as the building is falling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M31WzlmDG8k
This one while it is still standing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTotXNMkP1c

You can see the exact same behaviour with a demolition such as this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_anYswmGMeM
The pre-fire charges initially weaken the structure before taking it down.
Some more examples of demolition charges going of:

One tiny flash after the building is already collapsed compared to multiple flashes before the collapse. Genius.

Maybe it was a late blast charge, who knows. Is it wrong to ask questions? Or better to ignore it?

You're not really asking questions though, just implicating.

"Office fires"
