Firefighter Anon here…
I have not been to Note Dame Cathedral but from what I see in pictures it appears to be 95% stone.
Fire needs a combustion source and stone is NOT going to burn!
The private company hired to do renovations built wooden scaffolding.
The company was funded by public donations!
Is the actual cathedral on fire?
Or is the wooden scaffolding that was constructed around the building burning?
How can you destroy something if it won't burn down by itself?
Time of day?
Heavy traffic?
Fire crews delayed?
There are no coincidences!
