There are already videos making the rounds of certain people in Paris, shall we say, happy about this.

I'll say no more but it truly sucks.

Really, at this point, I think President Trump’s idea of using firefighting tankers is the best option. Don’t know how long it would take to scramble one and get it there though.



I would imagine the weight of dropping all that water would cause just as much structural damage

French politician Philippe Karsenty just told Fox News this is the French 9/11 even though no one died.

Yikes dude.

Or maybe something designed to fight forest fires isn't going to do as much good against a building fire where you are trying to hit a much smaller target.


This is more my thinking.

Trying to drop that on an area not much bigger than a football field is going to be tough.

Didn’t they have an incident 2 or 3 years ago where a guy hijacked a bus and ran over about 50 people?

Serious question: if Notre Dame is a French cathedral, why is the University of Notre Dame, the Fighting Irish?

Wow. What a stupid thing to say. It’s just a building. It can be rebuilt.

How the hell are the flames still that large?

Just the wood? Materials from the remodel? Chemicals?

actual structure should survive this intact seeing as it's stone



Depends on how hot it gets. Most stone/rick will crumble if you put it in a fire.

Wow.

No deaths and no confirmation of terrorism at this point makes that a wildly inaccurate statement.
