I was thinking "didn't they say Notre Dame would be ready for the Olympics?" And now I know the reason. Another great video!
-
I'm not Catholic, nor French, nor have I ever read the book, but I think it's really mega to see this iconic building rebuilt to it's former glory. Stuff like this gives me some faith in humanity.
-
Assassin's creed Unity patched the Notre Dame day one
-
When they said: „It will be ready in 2024 for the Olympics“ I thought, that it would take until 2030. But 4 months overrun on a project with an unknown scope is insanely good.
-
You're missing a key important fact. When the decision was made to rebuilt Norte Damn back to its original form, the architects & builders didn't have the blueprints to do it. Ubisoft, the French video game company, offered up the 3D scan that they had from Assassin's Creed Unity, a game that takes place during the French Revolution. The 3d scab were pretty much identical to what the church had looked like, so the builders were able to use those plans to rebuilt the structure.

IT WAS FIVE WHOLE YEARS AGO?! Jokes aside, I always love watching these videos, they are on par with TV documentaries! Way to go, TheB1M ❤
-
I’d happily watch a longer more in depth look at this restoration.
-
Fred. How many buildings have burnt while being renovated? Notre Dame de Paris, Windsor castle, The Glasgow School of Art, Denmark's stock exchange, Etc etc How? Why? What lessons have NOT been learned? New topic for you there!
-
No building may be eternal... but man do many iconic structures throughout history outlast numerous human lifetimes
-
Fun fact they used scans from assassins creed 🤙.
-
Like the phoenix, she will rise from the ashes and once again stand tall and proud as the Lady of Paris. She is so ancient, wondrous and respected that she transcends religious, political and national barriers, important to Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
-
No building is eternal. Great Pyramid at Giza: Hold my thick chunky beer.
-
And yet people French bashing saying we can’t build shit. This channel is full of French construction projects
-
Thank heavens that they went with the classic style. Some of the modern sugestions would have ruined the whole building
-
So, the original construction took couple centuries and reconstruction from the ashes took ~5 years and some people still complain that we don't build as we used to. Duh, we are doing it much better now.

Notre dame +10 happiness
-
That was really good. Thank you.
-
More historical stuff is a welcome! Incredible logistics and engineering to get it rebuilt.
-
B1M is great!
