Quote from bartkun

but there are people saying it might because of some "candy" that apparently people were giving out there on streets

Hmmm how does overcrowding cause this

You never heard of human crushes? They happen due to overcrowding and they're the scariest thing. There can be so many fatalities due to it! It's horrible.

It's okay, I just want everyone to know to be careful in big crowds

Quote from Aeicy

indoor overcrowding can cause people to struggle to breath and also there is trampling and stampede. Now mixed with the candy that was possibly drugged, yup disaster

I have big anxiety of crowded places bc people in masses do tend to behave irrationally in case of an emergency.

I hope people responsible for this are caught.

HOLY FUCKKKKKK

how did this happen???????

Thats really nightmare stuff

Quote from bartkun

hard to tell

some people reported there was fire in one of bars

so it might cause people going out from the place fast

other thing is that Itaewon has lots of small streets when you need to go uphill or downhill

bro thats like a mountain of people on top of each other

Its like one of those cartoon scenes

I never knew it can happen in real life

Quote from bartkun

yeah it's game of thrones battle of bastards real life scenario...

I saw some other vids

It's legit so scary

Estimates of fatalities is up to a 100 now

Quote from bartkun

I hope that fatalities number will be as low as possible

but let's be honest with so many ambulances and fire department cars...

it's hard to tell how this will end

I saw a small corner of the street and there were 20 CPR going on at the same time

there were not enough medical professionals around and some were carried out by just civilians

It does not look good at all

Any place this crowded is a disaster waiting to happen

Is there no other party area in Seoul?

major trigger warning

Quote from bartkun

tho it's not a fault of those medics,

none city would be prepared to get 81 calls about people needing CPR in same time

also seems like they tried to organize as fast as they could even asking from crowd about female nurse, men who served in military

there was no way to prepare for sth like this

this is my worst fear, I knew in my heart if it was a human crush there would be many casualties, but I hoped not
