"Why would muzzies climb up into the attic, where they say this fire started, to start a fire? It increases the chance of getting caught, and a fire set on the main floor would get to the attic anyway. Renovations are more likely the cause."

Get that logic out of here.

It's easier for everyone here to scream "Muslims!" like after every mass shooting when it's first breaking, until it turns out to be another white guy.

NOTRE DAME expert Alastair Bruce has explained exactly why the fire behaved so fiercely and spread to other parts of the cathedral quickly.

“That wood would have been drying for centuries. Over that would have been the lead that held the roof and the rain out....Once the wood was alight and the lead was molting it is now presumed that it would burn for a long period of time I am sure.”

“The two towers are extremely old as they were completed in the 1200 and 1300s. They are all on wooden frames when you imagine about how this fire has moved.

“What I think is interesting is that those towers would have had substantial holding walls on all four sides and that could have prevented the fire from getting into them in the begining.

“All these old buildings depend upon thrust and lean going in many different directions and if you suddenly take out the main joist from that massive roof.“I should imagine that the whole thing would be in some danger.”
