@@thefriendlywafflenot really if the parents were to get pushed to hard and fall and die the baby would’ve too so they helped that baby get out so she wouldn’t die but they can’t really help pass 2 grown ass people through.
@@thefriendlywaffle no it wasn’t because they didn’t want the child to die so they passed it to the shop in hopes it wouldn’t have to suffocate and die like the other 200 and so that did.
This clip is part of an episode Stephanie did on the Iteawan crowd crush in Seoul. It’s a good deep dive but get ready to cry because theres a lot of personal accounts of that day and it’s just so heartbreaking
@@vincam2628 it was a Halloween party happening and in order to get to like the "main" part of the party people had to walk though this narrow alley and ppl were walking in both directions. it got so crowded bc nobody knew what was going on in the middle of the alley and they were pushing to get down to the party or to leave the party and everyone was squished to the point where you can only see their head and shoulders - it was a couple hundred people in this small alley and peoples chest started to get crushed from all the pushing, people got stuck in the middle of the alley not being able to move at all with barely any room to breath so they ended up losing conscious, passing out and unfortunately losing their lives bc of the crowd serge
i cant imagine being a survivor of this its so sad because even the survivors are suffering from things like survivors guilt, paranoia, etc my heart goes out to them
To be fair the most they are suffering from is guilt because some of their steps could be found on the bodies to know they helped in the deaths of 159 people should be destroying them mentally at this moment....its not fair the world is not fair, tragedies happen.... nothing can change that.
I'm confused what happened Was there a shooting was there too many people wear it was getting like really crowded where people could not move in there were getting her or like?
So, me and my auntie (we’re Korean) both go on yearly trips together, to Itaewon. This year my auntie brought her friend. At the time I was still inside my aunties house, and she was out with her friend; in the crowded streets. But, when she came home she was crying, and she wasn’t with her friend. Apparently, while they were trying to get home it was to crowded, and her friend died of suffocation. 😔 May Auntie kwon-lee (my aunts friend) rest in peace.
If anyone is confused this is an incident that happened last year where a whole bunch of people flocked to see a celebrity at a bar/ also during Halloween festivities (just what I read in an article). 159 people died and 196 others were injured.
Lee ji han, a korean actor also died in this Halloween rush. actually he was walking to his home or motel after his work and he was atleast some distance from that place but he saw a little kid who was bout to fall and die; so he ran to that kid and saved her, but he died :( HE WAS REALLY A GREAT EXAMPLE OF A HERO WITHOUT CAPE. RIP
@@ShellySoldSeashellsByTheSea no , just haters who hate kpop and korean actors etc. could not tolerate the good deeds of any person who helped someone by sacrificing their lives
This is the story that got me hooked on Stephanie. I’ve been binge watching her ever since. She’s such a good storyteller, she makes it almost feel like you were there when it happened. 🥺 rih to all the people who lost their lives that day. It sounds like the most terrifying experience.
It was. It was fucking horrific. I’m an asthmatic and Imi felt like I was having an asthma attack or a panic attack. - it was neither (until now , when I keep having anxiety attacks). I’ll never go back there again.
@@TheDlv72887 it was terrible. I’m already agoraphobic and claustrophobic. In a way , I feel like being in the midst of a terrorist combing in 2005, gave me some kind of “training” for this. My husband wasn’t. But when we locked eyes, he could see how terrified I was. I’m lucky that he was there , and could pull me out. I’ll be forever grateful for him.
My fiancé and I were in that crush. I’m already claustrophobic due to being on the tube when it was bombed in 2005 (yeah , I know - I have terrible luck). He’s younger, korean and barely had any memories of the bombing being on TV. I had this feeling of absolute dread as people started to shove and push. (I tried to tell myself I was panicking) Months after he brought it up that he knew something was about to happen when he turned around to find me , even thought we were holding hands , and I was also holding onto his arm as well, he looked down (we have a pretty big height difference - nearly 30cm ) he knew, just by our eyes meeting. We would have died in there. He had to pick me up and out of that crowd. Our friends weren’t so lucky.
oh my god i'm glad you guys are okay. do you mind giving more details of your experience? im really interested in your story if not that is completely okay i understand❤
@@Chameleon_Halo just like how you ended up in this situation because i was always confused on how the crowd formed like did a ton of people just storm in? and how did you escape?
Imagine how horrific the picture woulda been of all those hands up in the air cradling and passing along an infant child while everybody was being crushed
An old student from my high school was killed in the Itaewon crowd crush. I didn’t know her personally but the majority of our band and choir programs did and it was a very hard couple of months recovering from that loss. We miss you dearly Anna ❤️
I've been in a wave of humans at a K-pop concert, it was in London for infinite and dear god I got pushed all the way from like 4th row in the back to the very front, I couldn't breathe at some point and had to squeeze myself back out and I remember being genuinely scared at some point. I can't imagine how the people in that Itaewon crowd must've felt.
It was a tragedy, yes but it was 100% preventable. Police and traffic organizer should have been dispatched into the alleyways like they always were. Instead they were sent into dance clubs and bars to “catch drug dealing” undercover. Poor planning and dumb decisions, I can’t believe they were elected by 51% of this country.
I also heard when the paramedics came, one of them stood in shock at the purple and blue suffocated and crushed faces and the scene because one said it was the worst thing they'd ever seen.
I actually went to korea last year and the hotel i was staying at just so happened to be right next to the alleyway whre this happened. There was police surrounding it and one of the days, there was a news reporter there and everytime my family and i took the train, we would pass by the alleyway and the alleyway was very narrow and it had a slope. I cant imagine how scary it must've been for the people there and to the people who didnt survive, rest in peace❤🕊
Last weekend something similar happened in my country, but in a smaller scale. There was a soccer match and a lot of people couldn't get inside the stadium (over sold tickets), the gates were close and just a couple of doors were opened to let a lot (idk how many tbh) of people get inside. Everybody started pushing and the people in front of the gates were getting crushed, and they had no other option than to take down the gate. Police saw the disturb and started to pepper spray the crowd 😢 which made everything even worse. 12 people died on that night at the stadium, and around a hundred were transported to different hospitals, many of them in critical state. This situation could be prevented but was also expected, because many events are hosted there and there's a couple of times when the crowd and bad event management nearly caused a tragedy like that. This night finally happened, oversold tickets, bad management, lack of order culture and more. People bring their children there; a lot of people are already drunk before the game even starts. Maybe is because I'm not a fan of going to stadiums or games but is disgusting the level of mess some (not all, must clarify) people do in and around the stadium when the principal teams play. As far as I know, those 12 are adults, but there's rumors that kids are part of those 12 deaths (haven't read anything else since yesterday).
honestly there should be a limit for people in narrow streets, I can't even imagine going near people and imagine being that close. I pray for those who have passed from this incident, hopefully something like this should never happen anywhere else.
I feel so bad for anyone who was killed or injured or just even in the alleyway in Itaewon Korea because so many people died in the incident being crushed by a wave of people I feel so bad for them
In Korea , itaewon When it was Halloween The alleyway was crowded. So later on people fell on other people, Resulting to death this should have never happened 💔
So sad. Same thing happened at the 2019 Travis Scott concert at Astroworld in Houston where I live. And I almost bought tickets for my teenage daughter. I’m so grateful for those tickets being way out of my price range. At the time I was sad that I couldn’t afford to buy them for her, but it literally might have saved my daughter’s life.
Im so sorry to the suriviors who witnessed all of this, i hope those who passed out rest in peace, those who were injured recover and i hope the suriviors dont blame themselves or feel guilty ❤
I feel so sorry 😞 for the parents and how the people got crushed, God bless the people who lost their lives in the Iteawan tragedy. Let the lord look over his people in heaven and I pray that it won't this year .
Exactly why I don’t go to concerts and places with too many people because it’s prone to have a stampede. Id rather stay home and watch it on TV. Because it makes no sense for that many people to be in one area, all at the same time
I remember this getting viral I saw this incident so many times in my fyp. My condolences go out to these poor people that unfortunately passed away, may they rest well
I'm Indian and I went there 2 months ago and I went to the golden temple and it was SOOO busy. I was getting thrown and pushed in a deadly way. I ended up surviving but i could have suffocated.
Its been a year since the incident and i am still sad about it, poor souls, Rip My friend's sister actually was in itaewon and she happened to be a victim of the incident unfortunately she didn't make it😢
I heard another story similar to this where a blogger was filming in a crowd just laughing when slowly those laughs turned into screams and there was this short girl next to him (wich I think was Indian I’m not sure to me she looked indian) she was screaming for help and her face started turning purple until she died the blogger got pulled up from the crowed by nice men he started helping other people until the man who helped him looked at him and said “please don’t help my people it’s already too crowded here” This is a terrific story I heard about from another UA-camr May all the people that died rest in peace🕊 And may all the people who lived live a great life
If I was stuck there I’d probably die because of the severe panic attacks I’d get. I have really severe social anxiety and I cannot be in a tight space with many people or else I feel like I can’t breathe and I have a really bad panic attack so when I watch this I’m just thinking about the people with similar problems as I do having to be there in that situation I just feel horrible for them because I know I probably wouldn’t survive if I was there too long 😰
There was a huge crowd I believe Halloween night and everyone became panicked and started to rush through to get out of the alleyway many people began screaming and that stuff and a lot of people were crushed under the crowd of running people , people who had businesses in the alleyway began taking people in too loosen the crowd but unfortunately a lot of people died that night so basically people died through a panic of rushing people after being crushed by running people
People died off suffocation and being crushed, no one killed anyone on purpose, it happened because off Halloween festivals and apparently a celebrity was at one off the festivals and people wanted to see the celebrity
People are pointing fingers in all directions starting from the classic victim blaming “It’s always crowded in Itaewon this time of year, why go?” to “This was bound to happen one day or another, those alleys are way too narrow.” But personally I believe it was the government’s responsibility to dispatch more traffic organizers and police beforehand. Higher ups were too focused on “catching drug dealers” whatever that means. All the police force were sent to clubs to look for drugs and shit instead of out on the streets to guide the crowd like they did in previous years. Just shame and stupid decision everywhere :/ Source: I’m Korean, this was all over the news.
@@GreenGoblin9 the government didn't anticipated that people would be foolish enough to make a enjoying event into tragedy. If people would have left some space in between or rather form a line which usually is the best option this wouldn't have happened. Don't blame the government for everything. Become a responsible and sensible citizen instead. If you think carefully the situation could have been solved in just few minutes if applied a correct method. By the way the government could have helped that's true too but no one really anticipated that too. It was a tragic incident from which everyone should learn from. RIP🙏
@@animegeek9924 LOL "the government didn't anticipated that people would be foolish enough." Dude what on earth are you talking about?? Itaewon has always been crowded around Halloween since the 2000's, and there were never any problems because police officers and government officials made sure to increase security and staffing during that time of the year. This year specifically, president Yoon advised his officials to use that man power to "catch underground drug traffic" and thus there were not enough policing and guidance like there were the previous years. This stuff was all over the Korean news and our current president is a borderline lunatic, of course I'm going to blame the government tf. It was not just a "tragic accident,' this was a case of miscalculation and bad leadership.
That is horrific i cant imagine the guilt i would feel every day from that incedent i was so happy to hear peopl were helping the child but i am just so sad that people have to go through this. To all the people who died (and oviously cant see this) rest in peace😊
@@anti-jhoncoalition5420 Before the comment was edited, it said Jonghyun died during this tragedy which isn't true. This case is recent compared to Jonghyun's passing. I know it happened last year, it was all over the news
This incident is how the Roman legions felt at the Battle of Cannae. Hannibal's tactic was literally to have the Romans crushed themselves to death in large numbers.
I don’t understand how people get themselves into this situation and don’t try to backtrack. Literally stupidity at its finest, but my heart goes out to those who unfortunately lost their lives. This kind of situation should never happen.
I experienced this in qatar on the last day of fifa the finals and me my mom and her friends were at lusail and there was a crowd like this near the metro and there were children at ages from 11 and lower and one kid who looked like she was 6 to 8 was crying and screaming my mother's friends husband picked the kid and brought her to safety then we got inside the barracade the authorities put up and then everyone broke through everyone was screaming and the doors to the metro was closed they all shouted for it to open when it almost opens they shout again and the door closes and repeat a few minutes later and we all got inside and i was traumatized
R.I.P to the parents, they will be known as hero’s for ever in the child’s eyes. Same for everyone else who got stuck. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
At itaewons yearly Halloween festival, a huge crowd of people came last year because it was the first since covid. Over 100k people came. The location was a narrow alleyway, and people were being suffocated and stomped to death in the crowd.
She is talking about the crowd surge in Itewon, it is when alot of people get caught up in a limited or caged space. If someone falls it's pretty much guaranteed they are dead and it's rare to make it out of it uninjured.
I SAW A VIDEO LIKE THIS A OLD MAN HAD A LITTLE SHOP IN THAT ALLY WAY He saw kids die there so he put food there and lit candles then he started sobbing The police came and said he couldn’t do that the old man said “dont u dare touch the food” And he also said the kids need their last meal.
It’s not that simple. All the people there were going going to go to itaewon to celebrate Halloween or just because their home was nearby. Because the alleyway was a easy way and a popular way to get into itaewon many went through the alleyway. Due to both the people leaving and entering at the same time it caused a massive crowd surge. And before you judge the people going in. Many didn’t know that there was a crowd surge in the alleyway when entering and many also weren’t trying to go through the alleyway but we sucked in by the massive crowd. It’s really easy and stupid to say that they shouldn’t have went in when you don’t know anything about the situation.
@@knightarmorr are you dumb? like tf? it was an alleyway read the other replies maybe you should think more nilou said if you wouldve read it "Many didn’t know that there was a crowd surge in the alleyway when entering and many also weren’t trying to go through the alleyway but we sucked in by the massive crowd." they didnt mean to do it how would they know they were going to end up in a crowd surge
God, these poor kids! Even listening to this is so tiring, I can imagine the years of mental/physical anguish and exhaustion. This evil man systematically DESTROYED their lives, their promising futures.
it will always be insane to me when a massive amount of people’s excitement for something literally crushes others to death. it has to so scary not knowing what to do, where to go, or if your movements might somehow cause another persons death. all those poor people and the ones who witnessed it, i hope those who were lost are resting peacefully, and those who were traumatized by the event are healing, no one should have to go through that.
Mainly for the reason that they themselves could get out of the mess?. In other words, they probably wanted a faster way out so the had to resort to pushing.
I needed to see a youtub video to understand this video but now that I know what happened so now I can understand why it’s so hard to process it and it’s really sad to hear about it
the fact how this happened in the same month where hundreds of people also died in a sports game in Indonesia for a similar reason. (In itaewon they were celebrating Halloween in this small alleyway making it too crowded meanwhile in the stadion there were armed protestors, and police had tear gas making it harder to escape). October last year is scary. Really.
There was a similar accident here in Germany. It happened at the Loveparade in Duisburg in 2010. It was a really horrific accident. And also people died. It just so sad, that this happened because of miscommunication.

@not_aduck thank you sm 🙏 it was a terrible incident.. I hope it doesn't happen again
I heard another story similar to this where a blogger was filming in a crowd just laughing when slowly those laughs turned into screams and there was this short girl next to him (wich I think was Indian I’m not sure to me she looked indian) she was screaming for help and her face started turning purple until she died the blogger got pulled up from the crowed by nice men he started helping other people until the man who helped him looked at him and said “please don’t help my people it’s already too crowded here”
This is a terrific story I heard about from another UA-camr
May all the people that died rest in peace🕊
And may all the people who lived live a great life
If I was stuck there I’d probably die because of the severe panic attacks I’d get. I have really severe social anxiety and I cannot be in a tight space with many people or else I feel like I can’t breathe and I have a really bad panic attack so when I watch this I’m just thinking about the people with similar problems as I do having to be there in that situation I just feel horrible for them because I know I probably wouldn’t survive if I was there too long 😰
I’m asthmatic. And I have really bad anxiety attacks. My whole life. I did that night as well.
Who killed many people? And why did this happen? I am so confused and curious.
There was a huge crowd I believe Halloween night and everyone became panicked and started to rush through to get out of the alleyway many people began screaming and that stuff and a lot of people were crushed under the crowd of running people , people who had businesses in the alleyway began taking people in too loosen the crowd but unfortunately a lot of people died that night so basically people died through a panic of rushing people after being crushed by running people
People died off suffocation and being crushed, no one killed anyone on purpose, it happened because off Halloween festivals and apparently a celebrity was at one off the festivals and people wanted to see the celebrity
People are pointing fingers in all directions starting from the classic victim blaming “It’s always crowded in Itaewon this time of year, why go?” to “This was bound to happen one day or another, those alleys are way too narrow.” But personally I believe it was the government’s responsibility to dispatch more traffic organizers and police beforehand. Higher ups were too focused on “catching drug dealers” whatever that means. All the police force were sent to clubs to look for drugs and shit instead of out on the streets to guide the crowd like they did in previous years. Just shame and stupid decision everywhere :/

@@GreenGoblin9 the government didn't anticipated that people would be foolish enough to make a enjoying event into tragedy. If people would have left some space in between or rather form a line which usually is the best option this wouldn't have happened. Don't blame the government for everything. Become a responsible and sensible citizen instead. If you think carefully the situation could have been solved in just few minutes if applied a correct method. By the way the government could have helped that's true too but no one really anticipated that too. It was a tragic incident from which everyone should learn from. RIP🙏
@@animegeek9924 LOL "the government didn't anticipated that people would be foolish enough." Dude what on earth are you talking about??
Itaewon has always been crowded around Halloween since the 2000's, and there were never any problems because police officers and government officials made sure to increase security and staffing during that time of the year. This year specifically, president Yoon advised his officials to use that man power to "catch underground drug traffic" and thus there were not enough policing and guidance like there were the previous years. This stuff was all over the Korean news and our current president is a borderline lunatic, of course I'm going to blame the government tf.
It was not just a "tragic accident,' this was a case of miscalculation and bad leadership.
That is horrific i cant imagine the guilt i would feel every day from that incedent i was so happy to hear peopl were helping the child but i am just so sad that people have to go through this.
To all the people who died (and oviously cant see this) rest in peace😊
I remember watching this video and crying at how bad the situation was for people- send love to the families
A K-pop singer and actor died in this tragedy. RIP Lee Ji-han
Bruh no he didn't, this case was like recent and Jonghyun passed away years ago
@@harvestheverest Sorry I got confused. I saw this on UA-cam. Someone gave me the wrong information.
@@harvestheverest I will delete my comment.
@@harvestheverestthe case happened last year
@@anti-jhoncoalition5420 Before the comment was edited, it said Jonghyun died during this tragedy which isn't true. This case is recent compared to Jonghyun's passing. I know it happened last year, it was all over the news
This incident is how the Roman legions felt at the Battle of Cannae. Hannibal's tactic was literally to have the Romans crushed themselves to death in large numbers.
This makes so much more sense because I heard about the Seoul incident and i didn’t understand how they died but ty for explaining this
I don’t understand how people get themselves into this situation and don’t try to backtrack. Literally stupidity at its finest, but my heart goes out to those who unfortunately lost their lives. This kind of situation should never happen.
South Korea needs to step up their safety laws.
I don't think you understand how authoritarian south korea is.
Agreed to prevent this from happening again because now they have to make safety laws
It's not a matter of Law.
It's a matter of self-decipline.
@@metromelody18 no they don’t. And it’ll never happen.
A law preventing a certain amount of people to enter alleyways lol
But that is really nice of the people to let the baby pass by
There was a lot of these scenarios - many of us were trying to help other people. People we have never met , nor seen again.
I experienced this in qatar on the last day of fifa the finals and me my mom and her friends were at lusail and there was a crowd like this near the metro and there were children at ages from 11 and lower and one kid who looked like she was 6 to 8 was crying and screaming my mother's friends husband picked the kid and brought her to safety then we got inside the barracade the authorities put up and then everyone broke through everyone was screaming and the doors to the metro was closed they all shouted for it to open when it almost opens they shout again and the door closes and repeat a few minutes later and we all got inside and i was traumatized
R.I.P to the parents, they will be known as hero’s for ever in the child’s eyes. Same for everyone else who got stuck. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why does it always look like she just got done with hours of crying
She always looks like she was just crying and every single video
Oh srry I’ve only seen 3
@@R.R03 are you Canadian
No
I’m American
Why was there a crowd
It was a Halloween festival I believe
@@Tenziiiii thanks
My heart goes out to everyone affected by the Itaewon tragedy💔 and RIP to the beautiful souls lost💔🙏
This reminds me of a similar experience, I faced sometime in the past. Still haunts me till today. Luckily no one was dead that day.
Wait what happened and who died??
At itaewons yearly Halloween festival, a huge crowd of people came last year because it was the first since covid. Over 100k people came. The location was a narrow alleyway, and people were being suffocated and stomped to death in the crowd.
What incident what the hell is she talking about someone please explain no one died I don’t get it
She is talking about the crowd surge in Itewon, it is when alot of people get caught up in a limited or caged space. If someone falls it's pretty much guaranteed they are dead and it's rare to make it out of it uninjured.
It’s an incident that happened last year where 159 people died
I SAW A VIDEO LIKE THIS A OLD MAN HAD A LITTLE SHOP IN THAT ALLY WAY
He saw kids die there so he put food there and lit candles then he started sobbing
The police came and said he couldn’t do that the old man said “dont u dare touch the food”
And he also said the kids need their last meal.
I hope all the survivors from that incident were able to heal... 🙏
Why would anyone bring their kids into such a mess
um they didnt do it on purpose they got pushed into the crowd
It’s not that simple.
All the people there were going going to go to itaewon to celebrate Halloween or just because their home was nearby. Because the alleyway was a easy way and a popular way to get into itaewon many went through the alleyway. Due to both the people leaving and entering at the same time it caused a massive crowd surge. And before you judge the people going in. Many didn’t know that there was a crowd surge in the alleyway when entering and many also weren’t trying to go through the alleyway but we sucked in by the massive crowd.
It’s really easy and stupid to say that they shouldn’t have went in when you don’t know anything about the situation.
@@Riri_Th3_W1zn3rd you should never take your kids to such festival
@@knightarmorr are you dumb? like tf? it was an alleyway read the other replies maybe you should think more nilou said if you wouldve read it "Many didn’t know that there was a crowd surge in the alleyway when entering and many also weren’t trying to go through the alleyway but we sucked in by the massive crowd." they didnt mean to do it how would they know they were going to end up in a crowd surge
@@knightarmorr dont be so insensitive
Or is that make up?
God I didn't know how dangerous crowds could be...
I hope the family were survived from the tragedy
How can ppl die from crowding
Because they could get suffocated by people stomping and pushing everyone there when there is a bunch of people in one spot
Suffocation, you body can become so panicked you could have a heart attack too
Almost 200 people died from it :( rip
Suffocation cuz there were a lot of people and the alleyway was tight
Dont forget how A group of people caused it by pushing in the crowd by making people fall over people got lifted up to thats how strong the surge was.
Passed a memorial tent at Seoul City Hall and saw photos of the victims, I was utterly heart broken. We need to remember these tragedies!
that scene reminds me of that one panel in aot during the rumbling :(( rip to all the people who passed during this incident
Hi I'm new and was wondering what happend RIP to all poor people lost ❤❤❤❤❤
God, these poor kids! Even listening to this is so tiring, I can imagine the years of mental/physical anguish and exhaustion. This evil man systematically DESTROYED their lives, their promising futures.
That’s so depressing rip to all those people they’re in a better place now 😢❤
it will always be insane to me when a massive amount of people’s excitement for something literally crushes others to death. it has to so scary not knowing what to do, where to go, or if your movements might somehow cause another persons death. all those poor people and the ones who witnessed it, i hope those who were lost are resting peacefully, and those who were traumatized by the event are healing, no one should have to go through that.
This just made me emotional in so many ways
You had me in tears hearing about people handing the baby over!!! I wonder what happened to all of them!!
A similar situation happened in Israel where people were crushed to death over a flight of stairs… horrible☹️
This one really hit you emotionally didn't it. I can tell by the looks in your eyes .. I really hope you're ok x
Cn u share in more details abouut this itaewon tragedy please
This is so tragic, i never thought something like this could ever happen, this was so recent too😢 so much people died, oh my god..
I love your content girl. ❤
Did anyone else notice the squid game guards in the crowd?
The fact that there are squid game guards☠️💀
This right here is why I don’t go to halloween parties and am an introvert
Me too but let’s not put the blame on the victims. This incident was 100% preventable.
This was so scary I searched Abt this and it literally left me in tears
why were they pushing each other when they know they could've die 💀
Mainly for the reason that they themselves could get out of the mess?. In other words, they probably wanted a faster way out so the had to resort to pushing.
The panic these people experienced is beyond imaginable.
i heard another story abt this alleyway and a person died because of this dangerous alleyway.
I'm so SORRY 😢!!
R.I.P to these people
My cousin friend was in this incident and he died😢
I needed to see a youtub video to understand this video but now that I know what happened so now I can understand why it’s so hard to process it and it’s really sad to hear about it
For anyone who doesn't know, the people die from getting crushed, stepped on, or suffocation
Being a survivor of something like this must be terrible. It’s going to stay with you your entire life.
My sister who lives in Korea was there also, she still isn’t recovered from al the dead bodies she saw and all the injuried people
the fact how this happened in the same month where hundreds of people also died in a sports game in Indonesia for a similar reason. (In itaewon they were celebrating Halloween in this small alleyway making it too crowded meanwhile in the stadion there were armed protestors, and police had tear gas making it harder to escape).
October last year is scary. Really.
Entity cramming in real life
There was a similar accident here in Germany. It happened at the Loveparade in Duisburg in 2010. It was a really horrific accident. And also people died. It just so sad, that this happened because of miscommunication.
This is so sad😢
Umm I have a quick question because I have never heard of this. What year was this in?
2022, November
