Tragic. At least 5 people dead already, and dozens injured.
I'm glad I didn't go.. I know a girl who was in the front row, but luckily she made it out safe. It was the inner pit that got crushed. My aunt and uncle were at the fair too, they didn't see it happen, but they heard the screaming and saw the panic.
And yeah, the sums tweeted about it. Please pray for all those affected by this

Re: Stage Collapses at Indiana State Fair
i was there earlier in the week, and i was actually in front of that stage walking around with my friends who show cows there. my step grandparents were there and said it was pretty awful. its hard to understand why this stuff happens and makes you think about how crazy life can be.

My dad lives in Indiana, he used to take my brother and I every summer. I can't bring myself to watch the video, that's absolutely terrible.
Silent in the trees.
Re: Stage Collapses at Indiana State Fair
Just terrible. I can't even watch that more than once. You can literally see the people running from it and getting crushed.

Re: Stage Collapses at Indiana State Fair
Might be a harsh thing to ask, but does anyone know if people died here? It's terrible..

Re: Stage Collapses at Indiana State Fair
Yeah.. The blame has to be put on somebody, though, it's not any one person's fault. It was some crazy weather. Just look at the sky in the video.FuckT41182 wrote:the technicians there will probably get their ass kicked, kicked hard, these things shouldn't happen ...

Didn't feel like making a new thread, but Pukkelpop festival in Belgium had a stage coming down today.

Re: Stage Collapses at Indiana State Fair
Yes
It's pretty fucked up, was planning to go but I'm quit happy I'm not going..
Only one person died and several others are bad injured.. I heard it was a really bad bad storm. Didn't see anything about it because I wasn't on the places where the storm went through..
Fuckin crazy, where I was it was like 25 degres, shit load of sun and then only 100km further shit is going on. feeling so bad. A lot of people aren't able to make contact, loads of cellphones destroyed by the rain..
