How much space does the Eiffel tower take up?
From memory its only about 10mx10m across at the base, and is 324m high.
How do you destroy Eiffel tower in twisted metal head on?
When you teleport and get to the top of the Eiffel tower, look for a remote bomb. When you retrieve the bomb, press X to drop it, than press x again to detonate. Note: Temporary shield(green shield) will help a lot! because when you detonate the bomb, the bomb will hurl you down the Eiffel tower.

hope this helps!
How can I get from Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport to Lorient with TGV train?
I did a quick search but could not find any entry though, which is quite surprising because you can find people selling back their tickets, so there's gotta be a direct line somehow...
I think it takes 4 hours and 40 minutes to get there in a direct shot (according to people selling back their tickets)
Another way to do this would be to board onto a RER trainall the way to the Paris Gare-du-Nord terminus, then go all the way down across Paris to the Gare-Montparnasse station, and finally board a TGV to Lorient. That ain't the simplest solution, especially if your're travelling with children and luggage, the crossing of Paris may prove to be a nightmare.
But at least you will be assured that there will be trains to Lorient. You can book your RER ticket (also comes as a booklet, just in case) on the spot at the CDG station, and get to Montparnasse with the subway, taxis or underground RER lines. (this website may be useful www.transilien.com for finding possible itineraries) But if you go for that option, do make a reservation on your TGV seats online from Montparnasse to Lorient!
Otherwise, a plane airfare to Lorient from the airport would be around 94 Euros, which is quite expensive as compared to railways...
What is the main industry in Paris?
I think the main industry is clothing because that's what most of the tourists go there for.
Paris has a big industry
Actually, France has many industries that are important to their economy. Agriculture plays a larger role than in the economies of most other industrial countries. A large proportion of the value of total agricultural output derives from livestock (especially cattle, hogs, poultry, and sheep).
The mountain areas and NW France are the livestock regions. The country's leading crops are wheat, sugar beets, corn, barley, and potatoes.
Of course, fruit growing is important in the south. France is among the foremost producers of wine in the world. The best-known vineyards are in Burgundy, Champagne, the Rhône and Loire valleys, and the Bordeaux region.
Also France's leading industries produce machinery, chemicals, automobiles, metals, aircraft, electronics equipment, textiles, and foods (especially cheeses). Advanced technology industries are also important. Coal, iron ore, bauxite, and other minerals are mined.
And yes, tourism is an important industry as Paris is famous for its luxury goods in particular fashion. You can find out more about the history, culture, and economy of France here http://www.answers.com/France?cat=travel

How long did it take to build Sainte-Chapelle?
The Louvre Museum did not have to be built to display the artwork collected by the French because it was already completed. The Louvre was originally built in the 12th century as a royal castle to help defend Paris against attacks. It went through many changes until it was finally opened as a museum of art in 1793 shortly after the end of the French Revolution. The complex of buildings was turned over entirely to art and culture in 1882, when the Palace of the French monarchy was demolished. It has taken about 700 years from its start as a castle to the museum it is today.

Where do you go in Paris to buy a painting from a Parisian artist?
== == There are actually many places, but the most abundant concentration of street artists in Paris is in Montmarte. Montmarte is a sort of bohemian artistic community in Paris. Atop this 300 foot hill is the Sacre Coeur, a basilica that is, of course, open to the public, and a virtual street market of artists. Here you can walk amongst the artists as they paint, view their work, converse with them, and purchase pieces you like. There is an artistic style for everyone to be found in Montmarte and on canvasses to fit into the available space in everyone?s luggage and budget. Aside from art, Montmarte is also a good place to venture into if you are in search of cheap food and drink or more traditional souvenir items at a reasonable price. Be forewarned of the walk, though. Getting to the top of Montmarte is no small feat. If you take the Metro, get in line for the elevator as you disembark the train. There will be a line which will make it tempting to take the stairs, but you will be glad you waited.
