感谢父母的忠言:
没事做?那就乖乖的呆在家里, 别到处乱跑。外面会有飞来的横祸, 闪避不及的灾难。
this is thailand. the bar had permits and emergency exits only on paper. no standards and lots of corruption.
😔🙏
we just started the year with crans montana fire and now this…
Doesn't look like flame retardant materials used inside .
ผัดกะเพราyummy
The pup's pyrotechnics outdo even a Rammstein concert!
Our people never seem to learn from the lessons of the past. This wasn’t the first time, and sadly, it probably won’t be the last. Corrupt government officials who are supposed to enforce safety standards instead accept bribes from business owners. The emergency exit was locked, and there were reports that a candy stall was blocking one of the evacuation routes. To make matters worse, the venue was still operating at 3:00 a.m., even though the law only permits it to stay open until 2:00 a.m.
That's why I don't ever go clubbing or chilling in bars… People don't understand how much of a hazard these establishments are, even with all the preventive measures.
All it takes is a measly mistake and boom… The inferno hungry for oxygen in the video is all you need to know. Very hard to survive. It will envelop you in seconds.
This is just like Ozone Disco Tragedy in Philippines 😱😱
Ah, that is how BBQ ayam in Thailand is made.
😢
why is the fire looking like a rocket burnout
The actual place and Chatuchak is kilometers away apart!!!
who is the guy wearing blue shirt? he is way too clam that it is unusual for such casualties
in many countries, mass accident or casualties can be truly an accident or destiny (ill-fated), or ‘sacrificed’ needed for certain ritual by certain individuals.. a lot of politicians and the riches use satanic tactics to use ‘humans’ as offering to the satan gain big power & big money.. often i can feel that these people are no longer themselves
unknown to many people that the souls of those who performed such rituals will be consumed by satan demons slowly when still alive and will not be able to reincarnate or born into human realm again after dead, they will either go to hell or become slaves of the satan demons itself forever.. nobody can save them thats why so many stuck souls crying for help to those of us the living.. nothing we can do sorry
Omg, it looks like a blowtorch! I'm so sorry.
Emergency exit normally lock to protection of runaway unpaid tourist
Holy Cr^p!! That looked like a Fighter Jet engine taking off. 😎

"Enter At Your Own Risk" 吧 ☠
Bring back memories of the 2009 fire tragedy of my favourite Santika Club.
My heart goes out to Thailand, and pray too that all the buildings are check for fire hazards stringently henceforth!
More trouble in paradise. Bus drivers like to stop on TOP of railroad tracks, this place locked the emergency exit! Welcome to paradise folks!
