It's a reference to the church burnings by Swedish death metal bands in the 90s.
Oh no, so parts of the main vault did collapse into the church below. D:
Man the news coverage of this is annoying 2 separate ones talking about how the debate of an airdrop will last for years to come...
Experts said it is too inaccurate and would also completely collapse the structure, whats left to debate?
Tom Hanks. Make it a spin off from The Da Vinci Code. The Illuminati conspired to create rioting in the streets with the help of the Yellow Jackets. Meanwhile they are able to infiltrate the Cathedral and steal all the important treasures before burning it down. However Hanks was able to figure all this out and replaced the artifacts with fake ones and then was able to stop the spread of the fire from being worse before he runs after the Illuminati in the tunnels they created under the Cathedral.

That really sucks :(
I refuse to believe this will ever happen. The Great Pyramid will stand until the end of the goddamn Earth. I want to believe this so bad.
Colosseum is probably one earthquake away from collapsing.Everything about this is really tragic. Goddamn.

The correspondent for one of our national news teams (aus), said that it's well know that the church in rome and paris don't like each other.
But, that the Vatican has tweeted out it's prayers for notre dame.
Anyone hear of this beef, and know what it's about?

Shush you :(
Very common and indeed why the comparison is laughable from a cultural standpoint. To get a sense, the inn down the road from my parents house is thought to have been around since the Domesday Book, in 1086. History surrounds us everywhere in Europe and it's catastrophically devastating to see something like Notre Dame damaged to this extent.Uh, hundreds of years of history mean a whole lot from my understanding. I'm given to believe that americans' sense of decade old buildings being old is laughable compared to the European perspective where people live among structures that stood since before their grandfather's grandfathers were around. (note I'm American so I cant say personally)
Couple things. One is the french government owns the church but lets the catholics use it on the condition that they do upkeep, which they are bad at.The correspondent for one of our national news teams (aus), said that it's well know that the church in rome and paris don't like each other.

Someone on franceinfo said they didn't know yet. Firefighters are probably still gonna be extinguishing the fire for a few hours still so we won't have details until then I imagine.Do we know anything about the damage on the Cavaillé-Coll organ ?
Basically, before all this, Notre Dame was still an expensive mess of a building to maintain - it employs a bunch of materials and techniques from differing centuries while not always drawing enough revenue to take care of itself; the French government owns the building but leases it to the Church, so they're at odds on who exactly has to foot the bill in such regards.

As horrific as it looked and is. It looks like things turned out much better then it could have ended. That is amazing and thankful for the firefighters who did what they could to minimize what could have been total loss

two is that there were two popes for a while one in rome one in france and they never truly got over that spat I don't think
Nothing quite as grand, just the small village of Pilley near Lymington, Hampshire in the New Forest. Mentioned three times in the Domesday Book.
There were 3 at one point... and they each excommunicated the other two.

Fair. Never been there but I'll put it on the list (filth Londoner here)Nothing quite as grand, just the small village of Pilley near Lymington, Hampshire in the New Forest. Mentioned three times in the Domesday Book.

The BBC's repoorting that according to the rector of the cathedral, there's a lot of artwork saved, plus official confirmation that they have the tunic of Saint Louis and the Crown of Thorns. There's no official info on either the nail or the piece of the cross, but a reddit post of earlier seems to imply they were both saved from the fire.
Nope. What we know is that it started on the roof in an area that was under renovation.I'm reading through the thread now, but do we have any idea what happened? Was it set on fire? How did it start?
The Pyramids have been around for 4500 years and it will be around even longer. Even intentionally trying to destroy it would take a lot of effort.Truly tragic. I'm glad I got to visit it a year and a half ago, truly gorgeous, the stained glass panels were breathtaking. I hope that they can restore it to its former glory. There's a lot of buildings one fire away from being gone, hopefully this will draw awareness to ensure we can properly protect them in the future.
I hope the Great Pyramid is never hurt. One of the big items in by bucket list.

Thanks!
