Lotr 6th Gear April 15, 2019 Share April 15, 2019 Just saw it on the news. Shocked to see an iconic building being destroyed, especially when the spire collapsed. Can see that there are a lot of wood in the structure, maybe that is why the fire became so massive. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenTong Turbocharged April 16, 2019 Share April 16, 2019 (edited) But actually that could have worked.. the sprinklers didn’t.. the horrific Paris evening jam could had prevented the fire engines getting there in the first place.. apparently it happens when it was quite crowded.. nobody got hurt everybody evacuated basically shows that it was left to burn and burn until it gets to such a size..that’s until the firefighters got there Edited April 16, 2019 by BenTong 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dleodleo Twincharged April 16, 2019 Share April 16, 2019 (edited) Shocking news to me! My friend who lives in Paris said many people in Paris are sad. My friend's Paris hubby was so sad that he couldn't sleep and wanted to wait for the news of the cause of the fire.

Heartlander Turbocharged April 16, 2019 Share April 16, 2019 Visited it few years back, only can remember queuing up to just walk one round around the chapel. Can really feel the pain of the French people. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philipkee Twincharged April 16, 2019 Share April 16, 2019 Sprinklers or no Trumps idea would not have worked. No way water could get through roof unless weight of water collapses roof. Trump idea just another of his showing his stupidity. BTW Trump's money came from his father. Trump has lost money over all. Actually I think trump's idea could have worked. But note that when I saw the news footage of the fire the fire was already burning outside. Granted it should have been stopped while it is still inside but now that the flames are actually shooting through the building, perhaps it could be tried. The weight of the water might have destroyed the roof but I heard the roof collapsed anyway so it's not like using the "normal" method saved anything. And I wanna laugh when you said "Trump idea just another...... Until Trump has lost money overall" I was thinking of another 'T' and we are no better off or cleverer.... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
