    2. Prayers from Ohio that was very nice of you Canada God bless all involved

    5. @Presto Chang3o right glad to see people still have hearts and care for one another

  2. For the collapsed building in Florida From me an Audiologist: To help hear faint voices and tapping, control noise sources to help. Voyeurism of Helicopter isn’t helping. Turn off sirens and engines until you need to leave the scene.

    1. Twintowers were Demolished similar way and it was an act of TERRORISM.and now I’m Florida 2 Building’s collapsed as if it was controlled DEMOLITION by some SICK top dog official

    2. @Raftar Hussain go back to Russia. This is bad construction and lack of maintenance. All you conspiracy theorists try to do is divide people.

    3. @FirstIn LastOut you the same as Hussein? I know you trolls have multiple accounts

    5. Even if they could hear them they might not be able to get them out due to the amount of rubble and structural integrity. It’s been 3 days rescue looking for the dead slim hope for survivors.

  3. Heartbreaking 💔. Hoping they find a pockets w survivors in the rubble. This reminds me of 9/11 in the sense that this building fell, killing people and forever changing families in a way that I can’t even imagine. Godspeed to all those affected. 💜

    1. @Martha Smith ignorance at its finest. What does that matter they are still people.

    5. @raine currie I’m sorry if my post sounded heartless. It came directly from my heart as I am heartsick for all involved.

    1. Did u actually pray though. Or did u just post about praying like 90% of the other people

    2. @Supremium I did. I just lost my grandfather who raised me. Loosing an loved one is one of the worst things to go through.

  6. Why would they have sirens going when that could block the sound of someone signaling for help and why delay the search efforts? I don’t understand how a 40 year old building just instantly collapses on itself without warning. Something is amiss here. As usual.

    1. It sounds like a type of fire alarm, it was probably still going right after the collapse in order to warn people to evacuate. Notice how it was still nighttime and the fire fighters are still in their normal fire equipment that they respond in. I’m sure they turned it off and started listening with sonar equipment soon after. You have to be very careful with this stuff because the rubble and the other standing buildings can still collapse on both the survivors and responders so unfortunately it takes time. I do agree with you on the cause of the building collapsing however, it seems very suspicious, either something was deliberately done to cause it, or some individuals need to pay heavily for the neglect and ignorance with issues within the structure.

    2. Check who was recently interested in buying out this building, and things may get clear who did it intentionally.
      Coastal properties are very desirable in Atlantic Coast, Miami. It is very common when a real estate corporation buys out an old 4-5 floor building – demolishes it, and erect a 40 floor high rise with elite apartments. IN this case, the current building owners refused to sell, and the shady corporation could perhaps pull this dirty trick on the building.

    5. @Alyssa Snider we heard you the first time “Tokyo Rose.”
      They Live…

  7. Lord give strength and vitality to every person and animal working on rescue efforts. Give hope to those trapped and the loved ones waiting. Lord keep the rest of the building in tact and help the workers find good paths for reaching others. Lord give them comfort let them know that you are there and that you care. In Jesus name amen

  8. Our firefighters are true heros! Thank you for working so hard in very dangerous conditions to try to find life in the darkness ❤️👍🥰

  9. God please help all the victims in this horrific tragedy find the strength and peace or both that is needed to help aide in this painful suffering. Amen.

    1. @mediacenter man God said in the Bible don’t build building on sand Prayers for the victims.

    1. Witchcraft is an abomination to teach.
      Soothsayers, are an abomination to the Lord.
      Obamanation is an abomination to teach. Counter culture, False Trinity are an abomination to teach.
      Abomination upon abomination.

    5. Aham Ham So god punished evil doers by collapsing a condo on a bunch of children in Florida? Your religions a joke

    1. aw, the bunk beds. kind of like the image of GWB reading to elementary school children, right?

    2. Not sure about cats and dogs. Usually the expensive buildings here don’t permit them. Though some are starting to.

    1. Not only that, I’m thinking a lot of people will be moving OUT of high rise apartments! And it probably won’t just be limited to Florida. It’s just so troubling how something like this can happen!

    2. Concrete buildings don’t just fail. Most people work in buildings, they don’t just collapse for no reason.

    3. No one is going to think twice about anything. Just like when there is a plane crash ppl still get on planes. Several years ago Jeeps were hacked and vehicles would accelerate on their own. Jeep sales didn’t drop. Samsung is still a respected company even after their phones were exploding in users pockets. When bad things like this happen it’s unfortunate, but the world is not effected and keeps moving.

    4. @Candis Except for the covid bs, then most ran with the lies and became terrified of life and living and others!

  15. God, please bless everyone with life and the perseverance to survive. Also bless the pets that also are trapped. Give the firefighters wisdom and strength to continue their efforts to rescue everyone.

    4. idk man you should’ve probably asked God not to collapse the building in the first place

  17. The way the right side stayed up for like 10 seconds and thinking about how to people had time to hear something going on is terrifying to me
