This is so tragic and deeply concerning. The vague explanation for the death and overall investigation raises important questions about the safety standards in place during the dismantling of the Iron Maiden stage. While the death of the worker is described, there is a notable lack of details regarding the investigation or any indication that the company is taking immediate steps to address what went wrong at all. There's little information on the cause of the accident or whether actually proper safety protocols are in place by this company. I honestly doubt that this company follows all the necessary safety measures, provides adequate training, and ensures that workers have the proper equipment. This incident should honestly serve as a wake-up call for the entire live event industry. Safety protocols should really be continually reviewed and improved to protect workers in every phase of production, especially when it concerns such big scale stages.
