This is up the road from me, I actually visit the building next to it as a GP practice is in the gucci flats next door.

they said cars were hit by the falling debris from the chopper and the crane. Did not name the models, but it was definately Vauxhall.

i could see the smoke this morning.

Exactly, with a load more injured, i thought when id heard it on the news 'that must be bad' but that sea of fire is awful, i can only hope the guy on the ground died before the fire got him :eek:

they had to get a bloke out of his burning car too...

i'm actually amazed the toll is as low as it is.

Our correspondent has been told by the Met Police: "It's very early stages but there is no suggestion yet this was terrorism. There is no Special Operations involvement at the moment."

Really? One unfortunate accident and someone thinks it's f*cking terrorism?!?

considering they thought 911 was an accident until the second plane hit..

this happened very close to the MI6 building, and after skyfall, the whole world knows this.

one thing we can be sure of is that the chopper did not run out of fuel, because there was lots of it burning on the road.

Mi6 is 200 yards away.
