Oh, I so hope that it just looks worse than it is! Maybe it’s the wooden structures in the attic space? Please!

Such a shame. Saw on Facebook that it might have been caused by a spark from the equipment used by the workmen.

I would hate to be those guys though... oh man.. I am just sick watching it... That was probably one of the highlights of my trip. I can't imagine how the local people feel... please please I hope it is better than it looks. |

Heartbreaking. I do hope they can salvage and save some of it to be repaired.

I love how Trump has the answer for everything. He tweeted that they should be using a plane with a water tanker on it...quickly.  |

Sorry, I posted a thread just a minute or so after this one, not realising one was up.
Live from France: the roof over the nave has collapsed and it's been burning for one hour. Journalists are saying it's too dangerous for firemen now. It looks like we're going to lose most of it.
Absolutely heartbroken over this.

The news keeps saying that it's been rebuilt previously and come back from issues. But it looks like this one is going to be hard to come back from. THe spire is gone.

It looks pretty bad going by the videos on social media. It's been reported that it started in the wooden attic and that there is a lot of renovations going on. I do hope they can get it quickly under control.
( wonder if they will take "HIS" advice... this man never ceases to amaze me with the things that come out of his mouth ( or fingers in this case)
DT's twitter post .......So horrible to watch the massive fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Perhaps flying water tankers could be used to put it out. Must act quickly!

Well that’s horrible. A coworkers husband is a well known organist and is scheduled to perform at their Christmas program either this year or next.
I hope it can somehow be saved. 😢

Such a huge loss in architecture and history. My nephew lives in Paris and I cannot imagine how devastating this is for the Paris citizens.

Is there no subject that this man is not an expert on? How insulting to those dealing with the fire to be given the pathetic advice that they 'must act quickly'. Does he actually think that they don't realise this? |

Water dumped like that would do more damage than good! He needed to end that with thoughts and prayers like the rest of his cronies and then shut the hell up. |
