In the photos, it looks like you can see rebar going through the base of member 12 with missing concrete all around that goes through the entire member. Could just be from hitting the ground or contact with the pylon. Also still unsure if the large object that protrudes under half a second...
epoxybot you think it was rebar and white cloth? Possible, but hard to believe it would appear so fast and look so large on the video, its the only thing that changes exactly half a second before the collapse, maybe it was from the shear? or PT blow out? or perhaps a cloth or illusion like many...
