This frame was almost 900 years old but the oaks that were used to make it were obviously older! When they were cut, the trees were 300-400 years old, so the wood that burned was about 1200-1300 years old. This frame was unique ....
If they rebuild a wooden frame (which would surprise me) they would need more than 1300 oaks at least 150 years old
@@sanapadsense1999 That's going to be a big challenge. It's been said that France has no trees that would be the required length and age to restore the roof as it was. It's truly going to take an international effort in order to restore Notre Dame to its former condition.
Good thinking GrnArrow092 but the trees are not the problem, moreover the foresters and even a French insurance company "Groupama" provides several hundreds of oaks over 150 years.
There are still some beautiful forests in France and they have trees.
The problem is that rebuilding wood would take much longer, so a metal or concrete frame might be easier and more efficient to set up.
@@GrnArrow092 la France a abattu 200 chênes
France cut 200 oaks to rebuild the frame.
I am an older master carpenter ., Timber framer . I would joyfully work the rest of my life in helping to restore Notre Dame . I understand the love of wood and being A Catholic as well .. Know how much this means to a Faith that is seemingly in decline .. I want to do this .. Glory be to God
What's a master carpenter?
@@maxwellfan55 ~ A Master at their trade. I'm marrried to one of these geniuses and they are becoming a dying breed thanks to short cuts in this noble industry. If you don't have a roof over your head. ...well....x
@@kathchristian6781 Thanks for replying. What concerns me is that the term 'Master Carpenter' is a self appointed, subjective title with semi-romantic overtones that doesn't actually exist, except at events like the Antiques Roadshow, usually by gushing descendants of former cabinet makers and carpenters (or 'chippies'). It's made up by someone obviously admiring and flattering of someone's work, that's all, and the problem is that it's misleading. Your husband might be a good carpenter, so you say, but how is he a Master Carpenter, and why?
Speaking as a qualified carpenter with over 25 years hard, often dangerous, time served experience in the building trade, and having worked alongside some amazing tradesmen, hearing someone call themselves a Master Carpenter would be just laughed off a building site.
As for the guy who introduced himself as an "older master carpenter" timber framer and Catholic with 'a love of wood', well I don't believe him. Carpenters just don't talk like that.
+@maxwellfan55 Not true, from sweeper, apprentice to journeyman, it is a slow progression to acquire the skills and experience to produce work of a sufficient standard be considered a master of any trade or craft from glassblower, stone mason, cabinet maker etc.,. It is no different to earning an academic Masters degree. The planning and construction of rooves and gutter drainage were always the particular province of Master carpenters when major buildings were constructed using the simplest of tools and knotted string. It is simply ignorant to dismiss the level of intelligence and skill that these men possessed to be able to build such endurable and complex structures.
@@gracecollins8415 Thanks for replying. You make a number of assertions and refer to me as 'ignorant'. I can take the ignorant but I'll question the assertions.
To begin, I assume by your name you're a woman, apologies if you're a man called 'Grace'. What practical experience do have of the building industry? Probably none because most woman won't do it for their own reasons too numerous to explain here, but I'll name two I've come across. It ruins their hair and finger nails. It's not sexist, just the plain truth.
So perhaps you're talking as a history academic using flowery, romantic titles such as apprentice to journeyman etc. From my perspective I trained, qualified and spent most of my working life in the building industry, including joinery manufacture and fitting, inside buildings, outside buildings, even roofs, (not rooves BTW). During those 25 years of unbroken, often dangerous and uncomfortable labour, frequently getting ripped off and cheated out of earnings, I trained and worked alongside many highly skilled carpenters, joiners and other trades you would have never met. I saw their work, recognised their skills, their abilities in undertaking tasks of the the most challenging complexity you would not have a clue about. So I will know much more than an academic about the practical world of carpentry.
Agreed?
Never ONCE did I hear any of these fine men refer to themselves or others as "Master Carpenters". That was my point. The people who do almost certainly have nothing to do with the building industry or construction.
So please don't think me, or the tradesmen I'm referring to as ignorant. I have always had the ultimate respect for those carpenters who's practical, mathematical, and geometrical skills allows them to set out, plan, and execute complex carpentry such as vaulted roofs, or winding staircases for example. And I know the history too, and seen it from a keen, tradesman's eye because I've also repaired and shored up mistakes such as overloaded roofs, so never assume old skills=good.
I have huge respect for the men who built great structures of the past, like the English cathedrals for example. You have tried insulting hard won practical skills and intelligence and it has left you looking a fool. It doesn't bother me particularly because I have done it, whereas, love, you have not. Other than possibly read a few books. So time to apologise, if you have the humility to do it.
Just a couple of other things you should also know. Architects (who have little or no practical skills) generally plan structures, not carpenters. Like Wren for example. St Paul's was not designed by a carpenter. And traditionally, plumbers generally take care of water flow and drainage. Historically they would be highly skilled in lead systems. Not the job of carpenters.

At 4:24 she says....
This is where fire detections systems are soon to be fitted .....
Isn't this where they say the fire started ????
They actually had the fire detection system installed at the time of the fire (or it could have been even worse). The fire is thought to have started near the base of the spire. It spread from there up into the attic "forest" (where the video was made), at which point it became unstoppable.
An electrical surge in a place that has no electricity.
@@josephastier7421 - I was told by a fire marshall, how wooden beams, that old and that huge, are extremely hard to burn, much less just spontaneously catch fire. Old, dense, hard wood, try and burn a log like that.
@@seananon4893 Those were oak beams, cured to perfection over hundreds of years. They would indeed be hard to ignite, because of their great mass. You will need a hot fire to get them going. The spire, constructed of smaller boards, filled that role of "log starter" perfectly.
@@namelessking8905 The fire is believed to have started below the spire - where there was electricity. It spread first up into the spire, and then horizontally into the attic.

And on behalf of all of us who KNOW THE TRUTH i thank you. Unfortunately many people are still under the veil that the media and also the alternative media has put on them ... God is working hard he is finding his true flock i know this ...
My Jaw had dropped to see what the Forest of beams and pinnacles and interior all looked liked before the fire . Then I fell over to see this was released shortly after the fire and workman had been on setup work platforms
The Irony if this video is skyrocketing!
So she is explaining there is no Electricity in the roof because it is the most vulnerable part of the building. Remember this one when they will say it is accidental.
No doubt.
The work was being done on the outside. New lead sheets were being laid down. Molten lead is used to seal the seams. It woudn't take much to set the 900 year old timbers smoldering. It takes a long time for fire investigators to determine the exact cause of a fire. I have been following this closely and no official cause has been determined yet! Quit believing all these bull shit conspiracies dreamed up by ignorant racist twats!.
Where are you getting "racist" from?
You seem angry for some reason.
@@sheilaghbrosky The company in charge of renovation have stated in the french media there was no welding or any work using fire at that time.
SheilaghmBrosky Brosky, what do you mean there’s been no official cause?!? The french government announced that it was an “accident” before the fire was even put out.
Now they have a bit more to clean up besides dust.
Such a shame, what a beautiful building.
A sprinkler system might have helped, hopefully they will install fire suppression systems in old buildings like this now.
yes, Satans house should be protected above all others
@4:14 - "There's no electricity... and there won't be any"
How come the roof fire (as per the official explanation) was caused by an electrical short circuit???
Don't understand your comment. It's been widely reported from many sources....that the renovation work currently underway before the fire did NOT allow ANY electrical work in the area of the roof or the spire, specifically for the risk of fire. In addition, I find it highly suspicious that the press sees this ( with some certainty) as an "accident", and not a purposeful act, saying this while the church is still burning without any forensic or arson investigation having been done. I'm not saying it was purposeful act, but one would assign at least a 50/50 chance of this, in absence of a follow-up study.
@@TheWilferch - I left my comment a little ambiguous I have to admit. What I'm really saying is that the official explanation is very questionable given that there's no electricity allowed in the roof space where the fire started. I would in no way be trusting mainstream media.
@@RedKnight-fn6jr Agree....and certainly don't follow the Globalist and Left-leaning worldwide Main-Stream-Media. One must dig into details from various sources.

According to official sources, there were 2 fires at the same time. What are the odds of that being an accident?
Well, i bet there isnt much dust left to be cleaned now.
Guys there was no electricity installed in the roof structure....but just because there was no permanent electricity doesn't mean construction workers didn't bring electricity up there for their power tools during the renovation...the renovation which led to the fire.
Don't engage the forcefully ignorant. This was an excerpt of an old video. Normal people know there was some sort of electrical installation from the temporary renovations.
I wonder now how much less expensive it would have been to have had a 500 gallon water tank with high pressure hose installed in the attic and a 24hr./365 human fire guard standing watch.
Roughly 80k a year compared to a 2 billion to repair the roof
+Lockbar I don't believe that they didn't have security, the place was akin to a museum . There must have been enough people still on site to remove so many of the artefacts.
4:26 Every single wooden beam in this video is gone now.
Every single one . Sad to think about . It was the most enchanted part of the building .
There's no soot on the walls and columns! But for people with a task, that's unimportant, right? Just like when the poodle was photographed with 2 of his male black prostitutes, but you didn't see them engaging in any activity but talking, so there was nothing, right? Just because you didn't see he wasn't wearing any pants. The comment sections are overrun by cheap propaganda shills, as was to be expected when a psyop is started. Gay Macron had to steal all the collectibles to pay off his beautician, AND to remove all money from the economy to finance further fear porn. Sowing conflict between the virtual factions - religious subgroups that have all been created by the same perpetrators - is their modus operandi. As the scum calling themselves ''government'' must move the loot, there are more psyops in waiting for Ziopaedo-France. They have lots of gay jewish crisis actors to give a show that will have to be BELIEVED by the taxpaying cattle, or else. Pathetic inbred moron scum calling themselves ''nobility'' and ''elite'' when killing unarmed women and children. This won't take long, one way or another. Look forward to being enlightened.

I would love to hear the opinion of Madame Dominique, Managing Agent in charge of everyday restoration, about the probable cause of the fire. OMG I'd hate to be in her shoes
same as the one that burned the grand master templar perhaps
if I were, I would scream it from the rooftops how it was an act of terrorism.
You don't need "Fire Detection" if it take the Fire Department 2 hours to get there and there are no sprinklers. Brilliant France !!!!
They could have dropped thousands of gallong of water on it from helicopters, avoiding the traffic, either really stupid people, or was another elite insurance scam..
Not stupid. A fire expert said that would have caused more damage, the reason being that water is heavy. Imagine 'thousands' of gallons of water hitting an unsupported wall (the roof beams having gone), the whole lot would have toppled. The French fire brigade said as much in response to Trump's ridiculous comment! Water bombing is ok on the ground, not several hundred feet up in the air! @@seananon4893
Pfsif, you can’t put out thermite with water, just ask the 9/11 firefighters.
Fake info, it took them 45 minutes at most. I actually did well in school and know that vaulted ceilings will have pockets where water can collect and bring the entire ceiling down, they even have pointed lead roofing because even heavy rainfall is enough to destroy the structure.
If you looked at the post-fire pictures the holes may have actually saved the stone ceiling because the water had an exit instead of just collecting in the stone vaults.
And gothic ceilings also project the force horizontally outward, hence the flying buttresses to exert an inward force and keep the building stable. Increasing the load by suddenly dumping water from helicopters will not only destroy the ceiling but also cause the side walls to crumble, along with the towers.
So stop being an ignorant fool.
@@joeltunnah and yet they were able to declare fire out with just sprinkles of water. So it's not thermite, you ignorant boob.

Dust is also atoms & molecules. There are many substances that can bond simply by contact. Those various temperatures of liquification and gas-point (fire) occur naturally in all atoms & molecules at their surfaces. Water (vapor) is also doing the same thing. Keeping things as clean as possible is very wise. And aesthetically pleasing AND complimentary to architects & workers.
True. It just takes one spark.
Notre Dame was certainly fire-proofed! What should then the donation call? If my house burns down the fire insurance and that is duty in Germany. I do not know exactly in France. But with such a church that is certainly a must!
Sad to watch this knowing now it’s all gone. But there’s always hope to rebuild.
This video makes me livid. And the cover up on top of it. #notredamewasaninsidejob
So sad to know now that it has been devastated by fire. It needed a lot of work before the fire also. Hope it can be restored back to its former glory.
This may sound like I'm "Reaching" but I recently played an old game called The Bourne CONSPIRACY (not any of the names for the movies and/or novels BUT CONSPIRACY!!!) At the very end of the game , you win the game by blowing up construction supplies on the roof of Notre Dame Cathedral and burning down the Cathedral. Of course you have all your nice Masonic B&W checker board floors when there is a death scene. Lots of satanic graffiti. Meanwhile! I'm glad I happened upon your Chanel!
So was the fire system ever put in before last week?
Yes, if you watched the news you would know that two alarms were noted.
Where was located the lead that melted, burned and polluted tha air of the surroundings so much? What was it used for? Was it part of the wooden structure? There is no mention in the video.
The roof itself is made out of lead, it’s perhaps the best roofing material known to man. I myself have stripped lead roofs that are 300+ years old.
It’s just a shame this happened, giving lead roofing a bad name. ( you can see the lead roof at 3:12 all that grey stuff is lead)
@@lewisstennett7519 Thanks very much!
I'm so pissed. These beams were so old.
Everything on the planet is as old as the planet itself.
True, but when you think about it, it’s amazing the roof survived as long as it did.
Wow, this is the first video where I've seen the wood structure "forrest of Notre-Dame". Easy to see how all that wood could create an uncontrollable inferno. Best to rebuild the roof structure with a beautiful steel lattice.

SoCalFreelance Ugh!

@@seananon4893 Yes?

Meanwhile, expert restorers in the UK are not surprised because similar events happened in restorations e.g. the Windsor Castle fire in the 90s.
This is an extract from the movie "At the Heart of Notre-Dame" - I'm sure it's from this, that the arsons chose the ceiling
She said no one ever went up there and there was no electric up there. So why would they put fire detectors up there?? Surely a sprinkler system would have been the right system. How ironic it caught fire next day. Accidental...I dont buy that
This video came out 2 days after the fire...no coincidence there.
I'm gobsmacked - if she is representative of the people who were the caretakers of the world's most famous catherdral - it was a disaster waiting to happen. There was clearly a lack of safety and security systems - all should be documented. NO FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM?? Negligence - what the Catholic church couldn't afford it? We were fortunate people did not die - and that was NOT because systems were in place. Shame on them.
In France, all churches are in a very bad condition because they don't have budget for them. In my church, it's raining on the electric panel, and it's raining a lot ! But our government doesn't care. They take years to give a few euros and the "Patrimoine" is the first to suffer budget restrictions. They hate churches and don't respect our history anyway so it won't improve within the years...
That is an old video. There was a fire-detection system. It worked, but they could not find the fire. The second time it went off they found the fire.
@@nyxieestrella7354 fake, they don't hate the church. They just don't have enough money, nor enough reverence for the catholic church.
Why would they, this is not the ancien regime? You reactionary dumbos should pay tithes to the parish if you want your church to be fully funded. But I'm guessing not enough people would be so generous. The modern world cannot sustain all these churches if there aren't enough faithful/fools left. Go to banana republics like the Philippines if you want to have pristine churches, but be miserable in every other aspect of life.
So beautiful, but now so sad.
Wooden roof that stood for 800 years lost in a single day...
Heartbreaking. I can't even watch this. Bottomline. France through negligence allowed an 800 year old work of art and national treasure burn. Outrageous. This should never have happened in the 21st century, especially when it survived two world wars and the French Revolution.
Go with lightning. Much more believable.
Now the fire that went through the cathedral will see her restored to the brilliance she deserves
That was my first thought. Its incredible that part of the building fell through the roof, and iy was covered with tarps for a few years, awaiting funds to repair.
Yes, in a twist of fate the restoration will now be spectacular and at the end of it all the cathedral will be better off. Still scared the holy bejesus out of everyone though.

Notre Dame was a cultural landmark, visited by millions of people. It’s safety systems should be at minimum at the level of a sports stadium. Neither arson nor accident should have been able to happen.
870+ French churches desecrated last year, 1000+ the year before.
Excuse me if I call bs on the accident narrative.
30 million people visit every year, it was 15 Euro to go to the roof, 5 to the little museum inside, and 2 or 5 to light a candle. Hum, where's the money going?
13 million, not everyone of those pay up because it's a place of worship and the general area of the nave, transept, choir and apse are free.
Church is a rip off . It is designed to take peoples money.
Does anyone know the name of the music the choir is singing?
Extremely sad.
So this report gave away the info to the enemies of Christianity on the most fragile areas of the Cathedral, how dumb was that? No wonder the fire started exactly in the place this report says it was the most vulnerable area...
This huge frame is nicknamed "the forest" for 900 years in France! So there was no information to hide on the most fragile place of the cathedral because anybody could know it or guess it ....

you guys do know this was obviously uploaded after the fire just to get views?
You do realize this is kinda important considering the knowledge held within.
It DESERVES the views.
@@kimberkimKC this was an excerpt from an old video, and this was posted after the fire. So what useful information can we get from this aside from the fact that Notre dame was in bad shape.
@@grabemiermeier6249 leave the questions for the detectives.
But you'd be surprised at how much evidence can be gathered by old documentation.
@@kimberkimKC yes, but not much from this short excerpt. So don't push for something that isn't there.
how on earth can the French Govt say it was not arson and an electrical fault when the fire was still burning yet there was no wiring up there ?
Now they are saying it could've been started by either electrical short or a burning cigarette lol. Seems like a wide range of possibilities. My theory is a christian hating muslim migrant with some gas and match.
4:20 fire detection systems are soon to be fitted? And the church was burned? Its almost like most of the recent videos knew what's coming someone is hiding something.
This is inside job to get a lot of funding from around the world.....
It seems so. Its going to by a massive task to source all theose massive oak beams in the roof.
Due to open, straight and secluded nature of the roof support it looks like it would have been simple to install a sprinkler system there, even if it is a crude system with manually opened valves. Wouldn't smoke detectors that transmitted a signal be a simply and inexpensive? I guess when they reger to "the frame" it is the roof frame. www.notredamedeparis.fr/en/la-cathedrale/architecture/la-charpente/?fbclid=IwAR0k9RCyXGMZutn6NhcEa8z5d47UqsW-W75cTbB1hTyb4bKj9o-8cSszCQo
@Robert Jerome No ... that would not fit in the historical building. It need to be original!
50 Schilling There are no trees growing anymore like those 900+ yo trees that were used
I visited Paris during Easter holiday and I noticed that the french don’t give importance to health and safety comparing to the British( I live in London) one night before the fire I told my husband that one day French people will wake up on a disaster. I was right.
It should be known that the old monuments are more numerous in France than in England .... and generally older too. Nevertheless, it does not excuse that such an inestimable cathedral catches fire in 2019 while for almost 900 years several generations of French had always saved ....
litogor
I totally agree with you. I loved the architecture of Paris. Every building is a piece of Art for me. I was really amazed.
yes now its gone, all gone!
Must be invistigations in tnis case
Either you live under a rock or you refuse to acknowledge the ongoing investigation.
Meier, listen you better open your mind and seek for the true and justise... or you afreid for something?...
@@danielhanukaev3967 my mind is open and i am not afraid, the only people who say that to me are the ones who actually need to heed their own advice. I am not an idiot, I have advanced degrees in science and know whom to believe. And I don't believe someone of obviously lesser intellect.
...even you so smart Meier, but God knows the true and your knowlege is not working
@@danielhanukaev3967 im so smart, i even know there is no god. So what now?
3:26 Oh really, the most protected place? Got burned? REALLY
4:20 ... that shows they knew that "la forêt" was an over sensitive spot in the cathedral. Hope all that structural wood to be replaced by light metal work
If they want to rebuild the outer roof In lead (its original design) then metal beams wouldn't be rigid enough to withstand the weight, in this scenario, they would likely use red oak (treated this time around) as per the original design
They will surely debate between a traditional restoration with wood, or newer materials. But honestly, traditional materials would work better with the entire structure.
In the 19th century they used concrete for repairs, and while advanced materials like portland cement are durable, they wrecked havoc on the existing limestone. Even stainless steel almost destroyed reims, they had to go back to using plain old iron bars to reinforce the cathedral.

Certainement pas un accident! Il faudra plusieurs semaines pour déterminer la cause!
Priez le chapelet et la prière à saint Michel Archange pour la victoire
de la sainte église du Christ sur ses ennemis:
Ave Maria, Gratia plena, Dominus tecum.
Benedicta tu in mulieribus et
Benedictus Fructus Ventris tuae!
Sancta Maria! Mater Dei!
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus nunc
et in hora mortis nostrae. AMEN
Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio;
contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium.
Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur:
tuque, Princeps militiae Caelestis,
satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
divina virtute in infernum detrude. AMEN
Clairement pas un accident en effet, malgré ce qu'ils essaient de nous faire croire... Je pense que nous ne sommes pas prêts d'en connaître la vraie cause malheureusement...
No electricity at the roof.
Around 2010 electric system and fire detection system were fully review. The wood cathedral was in old "chêne" wood, like rock. Very very difficult to burn. In every work on this kind of building, the process, control and inspection are like anywhere else.
The chief in charge of the last restoration said that he is very very very very sceptics about this fire.
Plus our gov saying thats an incident, when the cathedral was still burning... paris vaut une messe. Macron vaut une cathédrale.
I speak french. Why do i read the subtitles.
INSIDE JOB. Watch "I, Pet Goat" on youtube, and you'll see Notre Dame coming down at @
Two or three years to release the funds? WHAT?
33 meters up. Huuummm.
Now that all sounds like a terrible omen
The water damage doesn't matter now.
Anyone know when this documentary was filmed? A reference would be helpful. 👍
2013
Inside ( job) Notre Dame 😂😂😂
You should think who is behind this fire. Go to this links:-

And why people and architect nowdays with their latest technology could not make any building like Notre Dame?
No but it will be a big money pit for leaders to suck from
That fire was an insurance job.
A lesson to be learned from the fire, the wooden beams under the roof are a disaster waiting to happen. The wooden attics on these old cathedrals should be removed and they should be replaced with fire retardant steel beams. That of course if it is structurally and economically possible.
Wikipedia says that there was a roof fire at Chartres in the 1800s and they rebuilt the roof in metal. Definitely possible.
Or they could just install firewalls and sprinklers like every other public building with a wooden attic. Those may not have stopped this fire but would have sure slowed it down.
I dont think removing the beams for no reason is a good call. There is so much craftsman ship in that roof system. Its truly beautiful and would be sad. There most definitely should have been alot of safegards in place tho. Now rhat the roof system is gone i believe it should now be rebout with steel. But deffinatly not tore out for no reason
Joseph Astier once sprinklers go,off, they cause as much damage as a fire.
canadiankewldude The wooden beams may be historic, but they are not meant to be seen by visitors. They compromise the safety of the remaining structure, which is far more valuable. Stone will outlast would, so their replacement is inevitable at some point in time.
If anything,g positive of this fire it will reignite Catholic faith among French secular nation. Take back,your nationfrench
They did, way back in 1789. No one is coming back to the Roman Catholic church, if you are ignorant of French society and the actual significance of Notre Dame even to secular society, then your 'opinion' is worth shit.
