I will see if any lightening in that area

This is really bad.

All that scaffolding....bet this was some sort of construction accident...what a shame.

will the crusaders retaliate?

Muzz???

We will see.

That spire won't last much longer.

Considering how much vandalism that has been ongoing, I assume this is no accident.

Even if it gets reported that way

Lets hope sooo, if this is what I fear it is, they perpetrators will pay....

How does Scaffold Catch fire?

No lightning in 200 miles either.

how much do want to bet the they are
to stand down and let it burn?

That is a lot of smoke for a renovation related fire. Hope everyone there is safe.

The structure is primarily of stone.

While the damages going to be extensive I would not say completely destroyed.

Islam will destroy the civilized world and genocide all non moo slimes
What are YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

All over twitter mate

It looks very very bad

"The bells! THE BELLS!"

What's the symbolism with the fire??

They have scaffolding surrounding the area on fire so the fire is likely from the construction work being done.

Prayers for anyone in danger.

There will be innuendo that this is arson by Islamic Migrants.

= = = = = =

Macron will be ramping up a response.

I would hope.

Thank you for your enlightening contribution to the discussion.

LOL

..and history continues to be re-written/erased.

The spire of Notre-Dame de Paris in the grip of a gigantic fire

A fire broke out Monday late afternoon, around 18:50, Notre-Dame de Paris. According to the first images available, the fire took in the attic, at the base of the spire that surmounts the transept of the cathedral. The spire, culminating at 93 meters, consists of 500 tons of wood and 250 tons of lead. It was rebuilt by Viollet-le-Duc in the 19th century. She is being restored. Last week, sixteen statues had been spectacularly removed to be confided to workshops using a huge crane.

Le Figaro are a reliable source.

Arc welding for one.

Would you believe I know someone who was running in the Boston Marathon the day of the bombing and was inside Notre Dame today (on the same day as this year's Boston Marathon).

Talk about coincidences.

Maybe they were placing thermite

Entire roof will be gone it seems.
