you might not want to watch this(REALLY disturbing), but it really shows you how fast a fire can spread with that foam insulation these clubs use. I guarantee after watching, you will always be aware of your nearest exit.

the bathroom door was right next to the emergency exit door so a lot of people went through the wrong way and died there

As disturbing as this was, I am glad I watched it so I could be shaken again into reality and remember to always be safe!!

There were so many things wrong in that disaster.

Because some neighbor complained that they could hear some music, those guys that owned it decided to buy that egg-carton looking shipping foam for sound insulation because it was cheap though it was not fire approved.

Then later all the bottom feeder lawyers filed a massive lawsuit against Shell Oil because there was word that a small stack of flyers about this concert was left by the cash register of the gas station owned by the family of the guys that owned the club.

Damn that's scary. In less than 2 minutes there was smoke everywhere and people bottle necking at the door. Whole place completely in flames and burning to the ground in less than 5 minutes.

Camera dude got lucky when he stepped back to get a wider view of the stage.

Always looking for those "deepest pockets."

Even just talking about tort law makes me feel the need for a shower.
