A French judicial police official said investigators think an electrical short-circuit most likely caused Notre Dame Cathedral fire.
The official, who spoke anonymously about the ongoing investigation, said investigators still don

I'm not saying I believe it but I wonder why the firefighters who arrived after the first alarm didn't find the fire.
There was a fire, they didn't find it, they reset the alarm, and they left.
Regardless of how it started, the firefighters made a bad call and there needs to be an inquiry.
100% short-circuit by PeopleWeHatedButTotallyDeservedToDieCuzTheyWerentExactlyLikeUs
I've seen that happen. High power audio amplifiers in cars, installed by chimps who placed the proper 50 amp fuse near the amplifier and not right next to the battery. The 10 gauge wire from the positive terminal gets sliced open by the seat track/rail and becomes a light bulb filament.
Oooh oooh that smell.
You cant even assume that - the investigators havent been allowed in to investigate yet!
Was the building insured? If so, by whom and for how much? Was the construction company hired to do renovations insured/bonded and for how much? I believe this fire will be investigated by more unbiased entities than the Macron government. It is extremely difficult to intentionally set a fire that burns a structure to the ground and to have that look accidental. It is also impossible to make an accidental fire appear to be intentionally set.
The actual cause will be found. The only question is will it become publicly known.

I don't think we ever will. The cowardly left tries so hard to excuse Islam every chance it gets, that it is becoming difficult to take them seriously when they say "not terror (Islam) related". It's like the many times in his life that Bill Clinton has probably said "I did not have sex with that woman". Maybe one of his many denials is the truth, but the pattern of lying has already been set.
It may be that it was a short circuit, but if it wasn't, I still think they'd say it is; so, we'll never know for sure.
I have been thinking about this, and my first guess is that they never expected a fire to start in the roof. They probably believed that if there was a fire, it would have had to have began on some lower level.
If they didn't see the fire why didn't anyone smell the smoke?
Too high above them. Hot smoke goes up, not down.
Regardless of how the fire started the fire team has questions to answer.
Yes. I wouldn't want to be them right now.
Zeus, angry he’s no longer on top, threw a thunderbolt in anger.
He’s slow to anger.
There is more than one person moving on that platform.
When he found the matches at a Mosque.
“Hey you guys let’s put these wires up in the 800 yr old wood. That ouhhta’ ‘bout do it!!!!
DC circuits are also more prone to wires roasting. I install a 5 amp power supply and separate DC common for all of my +24 control voltage circuits in machinery. Once I get close to 5 amps I rack another. It also makes troubleshooting and repairs much easier to find and fix. It us not standard practice to fuse inputs. Only outputs.
Folks, I hate to scare you but there had to be at least 10 persons tasked with fire watch 24/7 on that structure. Anytime welding, grinding, cutting, type work is done, a dedicated location specific fire watch presence is required by code/law. Also all temporary circuits are required to be to code / law. I know. I do this stuff every day.
Short-circuit? On 875 year old oak? Nonsense. Would have had to smolder for hours or even days, and smoke would have alerted people.
