Re: The next stage collapse, Pukkelpop, Belgium, 3 dead
Hi,
UPDATE
So, apparantly, somebody died of a "regular" heart attack, a few hours before the storm, and he got counted as a casualty of the storm.
This means:
1 girl died at the camping, as she was seeking cover from the storm in her tent with her friend. A Layher scaffolding fell over, killing her instantly, and wounding her friend very badly at the legs.
1 guy died at the collapse of the Chateau Tent. He got out safely, but then went back to get his backpack, and got hit by a piece of tubing that was flying around.
2 people (a young couple) died at the shelter next to the Boiler Room, as a piece of truss broke, probably due to excessive water collected on the sail. Somebody else lost an arm here apparantly. Keep in mind that 36 liter/sq. m. fell here in 10 minutes, thats what normally falls in a month!
There are still 3 people fighting for their lives, some in (induced) coma.
I'll keep you updated...
Charlie.
