France24 just said the oldest part of the church, the wooden medieval framework, has been destroyed and is completely gone. No injuries, and the spire that collapsed was from the 19th century.

edit: All of the artwork has apparently been saved.

This is nice to know. Hopefully they can save some part of the building as well.

Firefighter are not sure to be able to save the building at all.

I just read that conspiracy theories blaming muslims were almost exclusively the deed of the us alt right. What a fucking surprise.

Well, this is rather annoying. I was rather hoping to visit it sometime in the future. Tourist review: I went to visit the church, but it appeared to be on fire...

The really sad part is that in german newspapers, or rather their comment sections (such as Welt), this is somehow framed as a conspiracy. Something like "No firemen to see, no water to see, no douse-helicopters to see - i wonder why that is".

It's sad to see how retarded some people are nowadays.



That's the reason why they won't use fire planes. Because it'll do more damage than the fire would.

The problem here being that fire will destroy all the wooden beams and furniture, and the glass - the same as water. But water would also destroy foundations/stone. I don't even see how they'd rescue parts of it without destroying them in the process - like the two front towers, how do you prevent the fire spreading there without destroying things yourself through water?

I'm not religious, but watching something that's 750 years old or something burn is just gut wrenching. Regardless of what it is. It's something that you don't get back, even if you rebuild it.

edit: at 0:31, for some reason can't link directly to the part in the video.
On track to MA1950A.

I miss your updates, hope everything is going fine. By the way how is the police holding up? I read that there had been like 25 suicides in less than 4 months, any explanation has been given ?

The internet has allowed us to subject the entire world to the dumb ass comments we would say to our friend while watching the news. Except our friend isn’t there to call us stupid for not thinking about how much water weights.

Apparently someone took a drone shot from above.

What an inferno.

Not to mention that france doesn't actually have any tanker planes. The closest one would be in the UK, and that sends 11.000 liters per drop.

That's 11.000kg water, or 11 tons.

Yes, thank you, I was just lacking time.

For the suicides in police, it comes from bad work conditions and management.

You can clearly see firefighters there, hopefully the stupid conspiracy theories won't catch on
