Man... one exit? Hundreds of people over capacity? Guys lighting f*cking flares indoors?

The owners of this place need to be hung by their balls.

I wanted to get outside to get some fresh air but I didn't want to have to fight my way through the crowd so I asked one of the security people if I could go out the back door. He said there wasn't any back door so I ask him what happens if there's a fire. He says "We all burn up."

Wow that's messed up.

This is very tragic. RIP.

Damn this was awful, it was a college party so most people who died were pretty young 18-25 (in Brazil its legal to drink if you are 18+). Such a stupid waste of lives

Wow RIP. Awful way to die

For some weird reason, I never heard of this in the news, just saw it by reading Kobe's tweets

Yeah, that's how I found out about it last night. Of course, I wasn't expecting anything this bad. 245 deaths!

I didn't realized there was a footage of this. Wish I didn't see it.

Yeah I watched that years ago once, can't look at it again. Makes you never want to go to a club.
