Remainder of Florida condo building demolished

[Butterfly]

My thoughts are definitely, yes, Butterfly.

No one deserved to linger for days upon days under that mess, and I pray no one did.

Being trapped under all that is one of the worst things that I can imagine. Even if my body survived, I doubt my sanity would.

It would be horrifying, but knowing that only 40 bodies out of 64 so far have been identified suggests an instant end came to those involved.

A good watch walking viewers through the sequence of failures leading up to the collapse.

? Demolishing the damaged remaining portion of a collapsed South Florida condo will improve the searching for, plus hope for finding possible survivors? Say what? If I was a survivor still hanging in there, I'd be praying please don't bring down the remaining standing portion on me.

From what I saw in a news report, allegedly the method they used to demolish the building was done so that more pockets would be created giving a better chance of finding survivors. Plus the building was to come down away from the other debris field. Don't know if that's how it worked out though. The whole thing is just so sad and so unfathomable.

Probably had to use 8 of their 9 lives to survive that.
