    Miami Beach, Champlain Towers South apartment building collapse, Part 05

    Reposting coz I mistakenly posted this on the old thread: Another possibility: the water in the video wasn’t coming from the sprinkler lines. Didn’t the planters have some sort of automatic watering system? Perhaps the pipe that broke was related to that? (I’m not necessarily endorsing this...

    Miami Beach, Champlain Towers South apartment building collapse, Part 04

    Found this pic that was taken just after the collapse by a resident on the 8th floor in the part of the building that remained intact: To my knowledge, this is the only photo in the public domain (for the moment) of the interior post collapse. Story here...

    Miami Beach, Champlain Towers South apartment building collapse, Part 04

    This pic comes from the report Pengawin linked above. It’s the test probe area in front of the 111 planter… Is it just me or does there appear to be some sagging near the edge? Is that normal? “NOOK-yoo-ler. It’s pronounced NOOK-yoo-ler.”

    This simulated view of the vantage point of the TikTok video comes from the Miami Herald. They also have a 3D rendering thing there too: https://amp.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/miami-beach/article252487373.html

    “ Here's the best available view of that balcony that I've been able to locate:” Ah, so that’s why they call it a “poop deck”

    “In a murder trial, you do not ask the defendant what evidence should be preserved.” Right, but how do you know what has or hasn’t been preserved thus far? It’s impossible to say one way or another because not every detail of an investigation like this immediately gets released into the...

    Do you have any actual evidence that this demolition is part of a “cover up”? If so, please do share. I’m all ears… But keep in mind that things like suspicions, hunches, conceivability, feelings, “I’m just asking questions,” “…but shady things happen all the time in _____,” etc. do not count...

    Miami Beach, Champlain Towers South apartment building collapse, Part 03

    My working hypothesis (for now) is that the precipitating event occurred at or near the 111 planter (the bushes seem to be visible in the TikTok video). Either the slab beneath the planter gave out from the combined effects of corrosion and neglect (perhaps related to that hole/damage visible in...
