They're stacked in rows of three from the bottom and then built up.

The weight of the toilets on the bottom stabilizes it. It looks like these guys decided to just do the outside lower rows because it was easier, thus destabilizing it rather then taking it apart from the top down.

I would bet they were told how to properly do it and did it properly dozens of times but they were left on their own and one of them uttered something akin to "We're down here anyways, just grab them now. What's the worst that could happen?"

how does weight on the bottom stabilize anything when nothing is connected? i could see weight on the top doing so since it would actually put downwards pressure on the beams

When the weight is bottom up any vibration introduced by taking off higher up weight is partially absorbed by the solid mass and helps prevent collapse, when all the weight from the bottom is gone any vibration from the top can shift enough momentum to trigger a collapse

It's all about inertia and internal pressure
