This is a horrible accident. The fact that these people were on something this unstable is not surprising. honestly I'm surprised that this kind of thing doesn't happen more. At concerts and events like this people think of all kind of interesting ways to get views. I do think that someone should have stopped them once this many people were on it. When people are in an place such as this most people are not thinking of safety, they are thinking about the music and probably the alcohol they just consumed. this is a huge tragedy and should inspire us to be more conscious.
