Perhaps at some point during the demolition they realized it was just going to happen this way and made the necessary precautions?
I remember a few years back there was a similar video of a demolition in Vancouver and it was more like a 2 story brick wall tipped into the street. Very much unplanned in that case.

The Ogilvy's Rideau façade partially collapse as well during demolition. Seems demo crews are just bad at bringing down brick buildings. They don't understand how real brick responds to these types of pressures.
