Just maybe the water from the fire hoses reached someone under there…Hashem Yaazor

i hate to say it
but just surviving the collapse alone seems very slim not to mention the injury someone would sustain from such trauma
to also have water and proper ventilation for close to a week .... that would be nothing short of an open miracle

Hashem has unlimited resources. He who created the air, the water, has no shortage of ways to deliver it.

By the way they tunneled in from the bottom and there is a lot of water.

i agree whole heartedly and i haven't let go of the hope that people are still hanging in there
i don't need to comprehend it in order for it to happen

Survivng the collapse on a lower floor is not crazy.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I’m no engineer but wouldn’t the lower floors have that much more weight on it & possibly less chance of voids ?

in this case where its a pancake collapse and as they keep saying the layers are super tight?
12 stories crashing down on top of someone?
i would think if anyone has any chance its the people from the top floors

There are still voids and air gaps. The people on lower floors didn't fall that far, so if they were lucky to be in one of those voids they should be able to survive without major injuries.

i don't think the issue was falling i think it was being crushed
the building didn't tip over it fell unto itself

My relative's chair and some other household stuff can be seen where his unit was (2nd flr) relatively untouched. If some of his stuff is unscathed, why shouldn't he and his family be?

I know that with each day that passes the chances decline statistically, but we're believers, and hope is all we got right now.

Think it’s very simple if it was at 1 AM then they were most probably in their bedroom which could be part of the collapse, if the building crumbled bottom up then pancaked...

Read the second half of my post...
This is something @Lurker mentioned to me- we'll have time to grieve if and when the time comes. Until then, we can have hope.

I’m not talking about hope, that we should never give up. I’m talking how it could’ve possibly happened.

it is also a possibility that the force pushed people out in other directions
