Why live on a tower block again? Why live so high up above aground again? What is so luxurious about it? This is a very scary situation, where your house is on fire and you can't leave because you are high above the ground. A woman had to throw her baby down in hopes of someone catching it because there was no other way. (baby lived)
In most cases of a burning house you can just evacuate. This? This is just insanity.
Why do cities plan like this? If the goal is to comfortably squeeze MILLIONS OF PEOPLE into a small amount of space like New York, couldn't there be better use of technology?
We're not that far away from someone parking their spaceship in a cave and living and shitting in a corner. We have all this technology but our buildings suck. Our roads are falling apart.
Irony: there are 70 other public-housing towers like this throughout london.
they probably all have the same flammable cladding
they probably all house migrants
they might accidentially get set on fire thus solving the Muslim Question.

Diagonally would do the trick

thats not a bad idea. actually like steps.. so that you can always hop from flat to flat to reach saftey
Matthew Cooper
A skinny stick sticking out of the ground is poor design and shows that you really do not control your own property. A strong nation would have no trouble tearing down buildings to create a massive structure. It won't need to be as high, and it can reach further underground. State of the art fire suppression systems and safe rooms like the new WTC has. It could be durable.
David Thomas
Your house could not be made of cheap wood and drywall. You just have to give a shit about where you live.
Why choose to live in a high-story apartment building? It's a horrible idea. Where's your sense of property and privacy? And they are paying more for that space than you do for your paper house
Jack Jones
agreed but no cunt wants to live underground. every building should have a sealed and dedicated fire exit that is made from 100% non flammable material with a extractor fan every 5 or so floors
Brayden Morris
One of the points hitler made about living in a national-socialist country was that population density and large cities were one of the biggest factors in dehumanization and loss of community, this is a reason why germany is how it is today, with lots of small-medium towns connected with trains rather than large hubs with tiny towns surrounding them. The kike wants you stacked up like rats, it has a very dehumanizing and demoralizing mental effect
Lucas White
its amazing how fire after and housing also can be traced back to ((them))
Tyler Myers
>luxurious You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.
Chase Fisher
fire saftey*
Ryder Adams
The issue is that they cladded the building with a fire risk, had shitty wiring that was another fire risk and had no fire alarms or smoke detectors and no sprinkler systems. How the hell was that even remotely allowed?
Andrew Reed
when someone takes a dump in their toilet at the very top floor, that turd snakes down through the whole building, passing nearly everyone and passing close to them if they're against the right wall
the guy around the bottom floor constantly has shits falling past him through a wall. i always think about this when i see a high rise apartment
Lucas Walker
The fire started 2 months, and 23 days after the 3/22 Westminster Bridge hoax. 322. 223.
I smell bullshit.
Isaac Powell
It would be a shame if some user happened to light a cigar near them.
Eli Sanders
are you Indian by any chance?
William Ortiz
uh fug.
the new cladding was recently put on the building too
Kevin Howard
If I lived on the top floor I'd have a parachute in my room for sure.
Isaac Richardson

Gabriel Watson
Wow I thought I was the only one to think of this.
Benjamin Brown
Are you suggesting the MEDIA lied to you? Are you suggesting that a fridge didn't EXPLODE? Are you suggesting that the fire is more in line with a traditional bomb rather than faulty electrical appliances? Because we both know that'd be wrong. Muslims, the main inhabitant of that building, would never create a bomb. And even if they did, I'm sure they're smart enough so that the timer isn't damaged in any way. God. You bigots.
Gavin Rivera
It wouldn't open at that altitude. There is no escape.
Jeremiah White
what on gods green earth did he mean by this?
Anthony Morgan
There should be fire escape slides connected to every window
Not only would everyone be able to escape, but the high up people would have an absolutely splendid journey down
Ethan Allen
nvm Some guy invented one. Still 100 feet is too long.
Lucas Perez
I always think about the fact that everybody has shit inside of them. You have given me another thing to think about. It is a sort of "as above, so below" cosmic symmetry.
Jonathan Jackson
>How can America do better and laugh at UK?
Suburbs. They're comfy and mostly safe. Inner city life is cancer.
Nathan Gray
a spendid vertical journey down. I honestly think the best bet is a strong rope of equivalent length to the building. Id have a good chance of making it if i had a rope I think but obviously the elderly and disabled couldn't. they should be living on the ground floors anyway
Aiden Cook
>everybody has a shit inside of them.

It's a council house, it's not "luxurious" you fucking idiot, it's a shithole, nobody would willingly live there if they could afford somewhere else.
Asher Hernandez
failed skydiver here if it opens that fast it must be spring-loaded. meaning you have to have it serviced once per year and re-packed
Daniel Bennett
>failed skydiver here there must be a story here, user
'Reynobond's fire-resistant panel sells for £24 per square metre - £2 more expensive than the standard version. A rough calculation suggests panels covered more than 2,000 square metres on Grenfell, meaning contractors could have acquired the fire-resistant version for less than £5,000 extra.'
Remember, capitalism is the safest and most efficient economic model of all time and if you try to regulate things you're a monster.

I still don't understand what happened. Was this some kind of intentional attack, or was it an accident?
Justin Long
do you go on the BBC News comments on youtube?
I know for a fact a few of the regulars lurk here. its savage most days although I've stopped commenting because its defended into nonsense now. was good for a while though
Luke White
not that interesting. fucked up a landing on my first solo and decided not to pursue the hobby anymore. in my case it was a complete lack of wind that messed me up. i wasn't coming down, waaaaay overshot my landing, and smacked down right onto the taxiway of the airport
found out later the guy who was supposed to be watching me and guiding me on the radio was inside the hangar drinking a beer. by the way he was also the only one licensed to repack the emergency chutes. wasn't sure i could trust him after that
Landon Thomas
No, just being economically rational. They saved 5 thousand pounds on the renovation, but since they skimped on it, now the entire building is burned up to shit and probably a write-off.
>What is so luxurious about it? >95% mudslime >luxurious
Nathaniel Nguyen
jesus fucking christ >by the way he was also the only one licensed to repack the emergency chutes I bet its a real rush but theres no way Id put my safety in other people hands or mine for that matter.
Id never sky dive, bungee jump, or scuba dive. or go into one of those tiny ass caves, not on your nelly, user. no way.
Id have tried psychedelic drugs though.
Juan Hill

Colton Powell
Stuff like this is only supposed to happen in third world countries. But London slums are now full of third worlders who use open charcoal fires indoors, fill hallways with rubbish, or store propane cylinders in a high-rise flat.
Won't be the last time this happens.
Nicholas Evans
Now if a bunch of kids would just choke on a kinder egg......

LaForge! Why aren't you in uniform, you lazy freak of nature?
Owen Taylor
>waaaaay overshot my landing, and smacked down right onto the taxiway of the airport ahhh holy fuck
Although you should still pursue it if interested in it, unless you really just dont like donig it anymore. I just think the likelihood of the guy watching you being a fuckup the next time around isn't as likely
Alexander Evans
Psychedelic drugs put you in your own hands, which might be scary
There is the risk of someone giving you the wrong stuff but after you realize that you're still intact it's all you
Aiden Phillips
yep
Brandon Wilson
The towerblocks are giant Wickermen where the outsiders have been placed to burn as a sacrifice to the Old Gods.
Levi Moore
I wonder why Anglos can't build proper houses. There must be a few remaining Poles.
William Campbell
Why aren't some patriotic britons setting the tower blocks on fire already? The tower blocks are ripe and ready for an infernal harvest!
