Halloween has another name, called the Western Ghost Festival, which is a traditional Western festival, but in fact, Halloween Eve is the most lively. Because of this, the Halloween party in Itaewon area of South Korea is too lively and has a large number of people, the stampede incident occurred.
Although it is a festival for Westerners, Koreans, especially young Koreans, are very keen on celebrating these Western festivals and let’s take a look at the lively scenes that night.
is not an exaggeration to describe it as "the crowds are crowded, the streets are empty, and the ones are shoulder to shoulder". Standing in the crowd, you can't see the head at first sight. There are all people in front of you, and you can only see the dark heads when you look down.
Let’s take a look at the animated image:
Everyone is having fun, some people dress up as zombies, their makeup is realistic, and their dress is also suitable for Halloween. Even their walking posture looks like zombies, but they look a little scary and they become blurred.
also has some people who don’t dress that much, and they look more normal.
There was no money for the accident, and the young people at the scene sang and danced, and there was joy and peace.
In Seoul, the most exotic bustling center Itaewon , there are countless shops, colorful entertainment facilities and gourmet restaurants, which are loved by young people. Of course, there are the most foreigners here, because its predecessor was the US military base in South Korea, so we can see many foreign faces in the back.
The reason for this serious stampede accident was that some people said that a certain star appeared, so a large number of young people flocked to that location, and some people said that the club had sent candy mixed with D products. These statements have not been confirmed. The specific reason is still under investigation, but it has to be said that the news is still quite attractive. There are reports that at least 100,000 people flocked to that location.
Some witnesses described it as "a person close to the person, unable to walk at all, and moved forward little by little." This was the place where the incident occurred.
.1 million people. The scene was extremely spectacular just by thinking about it. What’s more important is that these people had to pass through a narrow alley with slope. It was these factors that overlapped together. Someone fell and pressed the person in front and became the fuse. Because there were too many people, the domino effect immediately formed, and a large area was soon collapsed.
Not to mention how uncomfortable and desperate the person being pressed to the bottom was, a black guy recorded the scene at that time, and even a strong person like him was squeezed to make exaggerated expressions.
is really not a special effect, nor is it intentionally funny. From the expressions of the people next to you, you can also see how crowded and suffocated it was at that time. The girl next to
has a distorted face and is already crying.
And the girl who was trapped in the crowd cried very shrillly, and the original video can be heard.
This European-faced man is smarter and climbed directly onto the building next to him and escaped.
soon called the police. In this case, many people would inevitably die. Soon, the Seoul Fire Department issued the first phase of fire extinguishing response at 22:43 and dispatched several ambulances. Then the medical response teams and DMAT of 14 hospitals including Seoul National University, Hanyang University were sent to the scene.
The person who is pressed down to the bottom needs to be rescued first, and at this moment, it must be raced against time to rescue. However, there are too many people. Even if the firefighters try their best, it is still difficult to get the person at the bottom out.
This girl who was pulled was already dying, but her desire to survive still made him give up.
After the rescue team's full rescue, the crowd has also been evacuated, but many people have been unable to breathe for a long time and have cardiac arrest. Even if they are rescued, they are already confused and even unconscious, and some are dead.
You can see that most of them are young women.
Heart compressions are everywhere on the roadside, and no one who may survive will be given up.
What makes people feel regretful and regretful is that no matter how hard some people rescue them, they are powerless to turn things around. The youth like flowers is ruined here, and they are sighing.
Those who escaped by chance are still scared, while those who suffer physical and mental trauma here regret it, but those more than a hundred lives have no chance to regret it.
There is a girl who was an eyewitness in the accident. Afterwards, she posted a message to describe the scene at that time: the boy on the back of the right vomited on her body, and she watched the two girls next to her die.
The location she was at:
Fortunately, she was not pressed down at the bottom, otherwise she would not have the chance to post a message on the media platform to report her safety, but her leg was still seriously injured.
In addition, the pressure in her chest caused her to dare not breathe heavily, and she also suffered huge psychological trauma. She needed to see a doctor to adjust first. This experience is probably a lifelong nightmare for her.
As of now, the stampede accident in Itaewon, Seoul, South Korea has killed 151 people, which is quite tragic, but even so, the other part of them has no sympathy or sadness at all. They should play as much as they want, and even the ambulance is right next to them, which is quite ironic.
can only be said that human joys and sorrows are not consistent. Some people are in extreme pain and die tonight, and they still have fun without their own affairs.
This incident gives people a warning: life belongs to your own. If there are too many people, don’t join in the fun. This is not the first serious stampede incident that modern humans have. We should learn from these tragic accidents and don’t let ourselves not even have the chance to regret it.
If you unfortunately encounter similar incidents, you must pay attention to protecting yourself.
I hope you will never use it!
