Just heard about it on the radio.
What a tragedy... It must have been terrible, people in a dark club, completely unexpecting, just having fun. When a panic occurs in such a situation, with people trampling each other to get out... that must be awful.
A few years back, a similar thing happened in Holland, only there was an actual fire in a club. The emergency exits had not been taken good care of, so people had difficulties getting out. It wasn't a big village where it happened, and the entire generation of young kids has changed there - a lot of them either died or are scarred with severe burns for life.
If you go out, check where the emergency exits are and if there are enough of them....
