An electrical short starts an undetected fire on the 8. Roberts suspects the electrical engineer, Roger Simmons, also Duncan's son- in- law, of cutting corners and confronts him, but Simmons stonewalls Doug. During the dedication ceremony, public relations chief Dan Bigelow turns on the tower's exterior lights.
The lighting overloads the electrical system and Roberts orders it shut off. Smoke is seen on the 8. San Francisco Fire Department (SFFD) is summoned. Roberts and engineer Will Giddings go to the 8. Giddings is hospitalized due to burn injuries.
Roberts reports the fire to Duncan, who refuses to order an evacuation. Inadequately- equipped firefighters arrive to tackle the blaze, which spreads out of control. SFFD Chief Michael O'Halloran forces Duncan to evacuate the guests in the Promenade Room on the 1. A guest, Lisolette Mueller, who is being wooed by con man Harlee Claiborne, rushes to the 8. Simmons admits to Duncan that he cut corners, but at a time when Duncan overbudgeted construction and ordered subcontractors back under budget. Duncan, aided by Senator Parker and Mayor Ramsey, directs the elevator evacuation from the Promenade Room until the fire renders the express elevators unsafe.
Not heeding Duncan's directions, a group is killed when their elevator stops on the fire's floor. Bigelow is having an affair with his secretary Lorrie, and both get killed when the fire traps them on the 6. Parker recommends using the stairs to escape, but the fire exit a couple of floors below the Promenande Room is blocked by a wheelbarrow full of hardened cement. Security Chief Harry Jernigan and Roberts rescue Mueller and the family from 8. Jernigan gets the mother out safely but Roberts, Mueller, and the two children are halted by a collapsed stairwell.
They climb down the stairs but fire forces them up to the Promenade Room. Electrical power is lost and O'Halloran's men are forced to rappel down an elevator shaft. The Navy deploys a rescue helicopter, but a combination of strong winds and stampeding guests cause the helicopter to crash, ruining the helipad. Naval rescue teams attach a breeches buoy to the adjacent building and rescue a number of guests, including Patty Simmons, Duncan's daughter. Roberts rigs a gravity brake on the external scenic elevator allowing twelve people, including Mueller, the children, and a fireman one trip down, with the remaining eight being ladies chosen by lottery, including Roberts' girlfriend Susan. An explosion leaves the elevator hanging by a single cable, where Mueller falls to her death. A Navy helicopter saves the rest.
Simmons tells Duncan that he will use the breeches buoy next, but Duncan punches him, saying the men will draw numbers but he and his son- in- law will be the last to leave. The fire reaches the Promenade Room and Simmons forces his way onto the buoy, leading to a struggle. Parker is pushed to his death by Simmons. An explosion severs the lines to the breeches buoy, causing Simmons and others to fall to their deaths. O'Halloran and Roberts set explosives on the water tanks atop the building to extinguish the fire.
The remaining guests tie themselves down. O'Halloran, Roberts, Duncan, Claiborne and most of the party- goers survive as water rushes through the building, extinguishing the flames. Claiborne learns that Mueller did not survive and is heartbroken. Jernigan gives him Mueller's pet cat. Duncan consoles Patty over her husband's death (but does not reveal the reason behind his demise). Duncan promises that such a tragic debacle will never happen again. Roberts says to Susan that he does not know what will become of the building, and perhaps it should be left in its fire- damaged state.
Informing Roberts that the casualty toll numbered less than 2. O'Halloran says they were lucky. Roberts agrees to consult with fire officials in the future when such buildings are designed. O'Halloran drives away, exhausted. Paul Newman as Doug Roberts, the Architect. Steve Mc. Queen as Michael .

Irwin Allen realized that two films about a tall building on fire would cannibalize each other (as actually happened a couple decades later in the case of the two films about active volcanoes, released nearly simultaneously, Volcano (released by Fox) and Dante's Peak (released by Universal). The studios issued a joint press release announcing the single film collaboration in October, 1. The two studios agreed to split the box office revenues, Fox getting all U. S. Holden was refused, his long- term standing as a box office draw having been eclipsed by both Mc.
Queen and Newman. To provide dual top billing, the credits were arranged diagonally, with Mc. Queen lower left and Newman upper right. Thus, each appeared to have . In the cast list rolling from top to bottom at the film's end, however, Mc. Queen and Newman's names were arranged diagonally as at the beginning; as a consequence, Newman's name is fully visible first there. Mc. Queen and Newman were promised the same pay and number of lines, which meant that one had to shoot additional scenes to equalize the dialog.
He also won both a BAFTA Award and Golden Globe award for his performance. The score was composed and conducted by John Williams, orchestrated by Herbert W. Spencer and Al Woodbury, and recorded at the 2.
Century Fox scoring stage on October 3. November 4, 7 and 1. The original recording engineer was Ted Keep. Source music in portions of the film includes instrumental versions of . It is not the recording on the soundtrack album but a newer arrangement recorded for The Towering Inferno. An extended version is heard, ostensibly as source music in a deleted theatrical scene sometimes shown as part of a longer scene from the TV broadcast version. One of the most sought- after unreleased music cues from the film is the one where Williams provides low- key lounge music during a party prior to the announcement of a fire.
O’Halloran orders Duncan to evacuate the party; the music becomes louder as Lisolette and Harlee are seen dancing and Duncan lectures son- in- law Roger.
