Building In Iran Catches Fire And Collapses [VIDEO]

Tragedy stuck in Iran when a 17-story building not only caught fire, but collapsed amid the blaze.

As of this writing, it's not clear what caused the massive fire. It is being reported now, however, that the building wasn't up to code, and did not have the required amount of fire extinguishers.

The story gets worse, and grim after the massive fire engulfed the building.

As firemen filled the building, attempting to put out the flames, the entire building collapsed under the stress of the intense heat. The collapse instantly killed twenty firemen, and most likely others who were trapped inside.

Here's the footage.
