"I remember getting a call from the, er, fire department commander,
telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain
the fire, and I said, 'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe
the smartest thing to do is pull it.' And they made that decision to
pull and we watched the building collapse

Because he had decide to abandon any attempt to preserve the
building and was willing to pull any efforts to do so.



"Pull" is an industry term that means professionally demolish, as is
confirmed by this clip from the same PBS documentary:

Pull has multiple meanings.
YOUR meaning makes no sense in the context of his sentence.
Clearly what ever "pull" he was talking about, he was talking about it
after the event. He wasn't indicating it to be the cause.
