@chrismohr. This may help.
Some very detailed analysis of which bits of perimeter broke where and landed where has been done by Major_Tom and posted in this thread:

I am aware of the tendency to decry anything Major_Tom puts forward but his analysis of the falling of the sheets of perimeter columns is IMO commendable. It shows mechanisms in which large sheets of perimeter columns "rolled over" as they fell and thereby gained significant distance from the tower.
There could be a lot more detail than you need but it certainly supports how the "bowling over" of large perimeter sheets made it relatively easy for outlier bits of steel to fall at significant distance from tower base. Without the need for some "ejection" to impart horizontal motion and the resulting presumed parabolic trajectories etc
