​@@ktxoxie772Whether God is real or not doesnt ultimately matter. Even if he isnt real the human instinct and condition itself is what does the work and either God works through that or people ascribe it to Gods work. And believing in God or some kind of higher power is useful for that whether it exists or not. If you believe in God deeply then that will manifest in your instincts and you might have an easier time recognizing them and acting on them. Afterall when God is telling you to do something you do it, even if God is just how you perceive your instincts. Same thing with guardian spirits and the like. You think your guardian spirit is an animal or one of your ancestors or whatever? Well when that animal or ancestor appears for you and guides you then you listen. I believe it can make it easier to recognize your own instincts if you believe there is something guiding you that will represent your instincts.

The scary thing is that clubs/bars still work like that. I was just in Brazil for the first time a couple months ago and was confused at first. You sign up when you enter, charge things. But then have to go to another part of the place to pay. And they give you some sort of wristband that proves you’ve settled up. So the guard can let you out. Otherwise you pay first, get a slip of paper that you hand the bartender so they know what to give you, which is a better system and would avoid the potential issues in an emergency situation.

The Boston marathon bombings were perpetrated with fire work explosives and pressure cookers.

Replace the cardboard with a steel pipe and now that pressure can get up there to turn into an improvised frag grenade.

You'd think the people making these choices would think human lives meant more. You might argue they didn't think this would happen, but after hundreds if not thousands of these tragedies throughout history (many in just the last 100 years), that excuse just doesn't fly anymore. These people should be charged with first degree murder for every single death caused by their greed.

how shameful! the owner of the club cried that he had to spend his BIRTHDAY IN JAIL!!! 242 STUDENTS WHO DID NOT EVEN PASS THE AGE OF 30 OR 35 ARE NOT EVEN ALIVE TO SPEND THEIR BIRTHDAYS!!! what kind of a human would do that! the fact that he spoke this infront of the victims loved ones makes my blood boil!! i really hope that the people who passed away are in heaven looking down and smiling at their loved ones assuring them that they are ok! ALSO how could someone blame it religion be it any reason! whats a fire which killed 242 students who weren't even at blame got to do with CHURCH!!! its also so inhuman of the lead vocalist to blame anyone but him!! people who were involved in this blame anyone and anything except but themselves!!

About the president's photo. Former president Dilma, and current president of the Bank of the BRICS, could be accused of many things. She wasn't very smart. She led the country into a gigantic economic crisis (that was more due to the crash of the commodity prices in a country that to this day is too dependent on commodities and didn't learn the lesson and is just waiting for it to happen again blaming ALL on Dilma when it's in fact the failed economic model that runs through the right wing and left wing untouchable- but it's also true that her measures just made things way worse). Some accuse her of corruption because HER PARTY, specially with his predecessor at the presidency, not her, was involved in large scale corruption scandals (that continued after the party went out, so much so it is back in power) but nothing against HER was never proved and she was impeached for a pretext that than was later proved false (meaning she took all the rage for her predecessor and her party in this matter because of the economic crisis). But okay, let's say you can (as some will) implicate her on corruption as well. I can give you even that. BUT one thing that she CANNOT be accused (and her predecessor definitely CAN- to the ones that think I'll be defending her for be left leaning) is of being populist and manipulative to take advantage of such a moment. To be clear I never voted for her (Yeas, I voted for Lula, of course) and I'd NEVER vote for her again, for her handling of the economic crisis and the Olympics. But she surely has a good heart, a good and naive heart of a stupid person. Her problem is in her BRAINS not in her heart. It's unjust portraying her like that despite her many flaws exactly because her flaws stem from her naivety and lack of brains, so to speak. But, often in Brazil she and Lula are took by the opposition as one. Lula IS a populist, Lula probably was involved in corruption, Lula cared for his image. BUT, contrary to the opposition his handle of the economy was so so, he wouldn't cause the crisis Dilma "caused" in a million year. And Dilma was pure hearted and just messed everything up economically. But, as they are from the same party, all things are usually mingled together. Two very different people.

Just like you, I have many criticisms towards her administration, of course, but it would be very frivolous of me to say she wasn't respectful in this incident. Because she was. I feel like everything becomes a reason to get political, so people attack her or Lula for random reasons and it's actually very exausting. This moment was not political. It was a tragedy and she was the commander in chief of our country responding to it. That's all.

We will all honor their efforts with nothing but love, appreciation and the utmost respect for their courage and bravery

I also love that she covers so many international cases absolutely no one is covering. It is very refreshing watching new content I've never seen talked about, or even heard of before.

In Hungary, january 2011 there was a tragedy also caused by neglect. The club was named West Balkan, it was located in the centre of Budapest. 3 people died and several more were injured. The cause: they let in 3000 people instead of 1500. They suffocated. I know it is not 242,but the tragedy shook up our nation. These happen all over the world. Greed...

Also, it was clear during the investigations that the nightclub "passed" their last safety inspections buy bribing the inspectors...the ones responsible for safety inspections are the fire department and the town hall. Its was clear there was a lot of corruption and bribery going on and a lot was done under the table to cover it up, specially with the fire department. The reason I think they got a slap on the wrist is because of politicians worried that if one of the involved got a proper penalty they would rattle everyone else involved.

This reminds me of the Route 91 music festival shooting in Las Vegas. It was the largest mass shooting in American history, where the shooter positioned themselves in a hotel room just above the festival and shot automatic weapons into the crowd. Taxi drivers would all rush to the scene and try to get as many people away as possible. I remember one story of this taxi driver who sped a father to the scene to go get his daughter and someone with her. Even during 9/11, anyone who owned even a simple fishing boat would rush to the harbor to get as many people away from smoke and get them off the island as all highways off the island were shut down. Sometimes the civilians not involved can be the best help aside from first responders, they feel like it is their responsibility to save lives and end up saving many of them

Travis Scott's festival a couple years ago, where 9 people died in the crush of the crowd, sealed the deal for me. (I wasn't there.) It reminded me of a Dave Matthews Band concert in the late 90's where I was caught up in the crowd surge towards the stage. I couldn't breathe, couldn't get my arms up, and almost got trampled. People had to lift me out, crowd-surfing style. @@LibraInSeattle

I love how you memorialized these victims. Gave life to their story. Got me crying here

Wow. This made me cry so hard. How honorable for everyone stepping forward to save others, the doctors, the taxis, the people running in. May their lives be full of success and joy, and their actions rewarded for their whole lives.

it’s not often a case makes me emotional, but this one really got me, the fact that this could have been prevented, the fact that these were college kids celebrating becoming an adult and doing big things, a lot of them celebrating birthdays, so many volunteers stepping up, i feel this one in my chest

Thank you for covering the Kiss disaster with so much respect. I'm brazillian, and at the time I was the same age as the people in the club, also going partying and attending spaces just like kiss. I have clear memories of that day, all we heard in the news that day was about the fire at kiss club. The whole country stood still as the number of victims just ketp on piling on and on without an end. That day I'm sure this was the first thing most people heard when they woke up. I remember that I spent that day just listening to the news, and watching mostly parents of victims being interviewd and just looking completely lost. As many have said, to this day I still check for emergency exits whenever I'm in a closed space with lots of people, I find myselg thinking "what do I have to do if there's a fire here?" "where do I go?" "how do I make sure my friends are safe?" "what can I do to not lose them in case people panic?" . I feel like this was a traumatic event on the whole country that left most people my age paranoid about this. I've watched every single documentary about this, and you guys did a great job telling this story. Thanks Stephanie and crew.

I'm from Brazil and I was 8 years old when this case happened and I still remember clearly how I reacted when it hit the news. It felt like a horror movie, and to this day the people responsible for this are not paying.

Wow. I am speechless. Out of all the videos I have watched of yours, this one made me cry the most. I can’t believe there was negative justice served… everything that could go wrong went wrong.

I looked it up because I was about to freak out about my mattress - polyurethane foam used in furniture, including mattresses, is treated with flame retardants. My guess would be the nightclub owners bought plain polyurethane foam and not anything intended for regular consumer use.

@JuicyUTTPseems to be one of those things to block sight from what looks like a urinal, as it is just a model for what looks like the actual club

Thank you for talking about this case. There's a book written by the mom of a victim, called "Everyday day, the same night" and it's one of the saddest things you could ever read.

it was actually written by a journalist who interviewed a lot of the families involved in the case, her name is daniela arbex

I just wanna thank you for making more international cases. I hope you can cover more international case cause they’re really interesting and you also have a way of telling these cases that are really understanding as a kid of 14 years old. I can really understand everything and I watch you every time so I’m really grateful that you make these videos as a Portuguese speaking person. You also explain everything so well translate everything so well it’s just wonderful what you’re doing so I hope you can keep going like this, thank you

This story made me cry. 😢 Thank you for covering this with all the details

This case happened in my state, Rio grande do sul. I was 12 at the time and i remember exactly where i was and how i reacted listening to it even after more than 10 years later. It was so sad and shocking seeing that many young people dying. Thank you Stephanie for bringing a case from my country, it was a tragedy the world should know about.

In US and this video helps the whole world mourn. I am so sorry. It was a loss for us all.

The fact that so many people were killed not by a terrorist attack, but by sheer stupidity of people is mind-boggling. This story just shows how being cheap and being stupid destroys lives. It's unspeakable

A year and half after 9/11 the Station Night Club tragedy happened in 2003. Both 9/11 and the Station Night Club tragedy are remembered yearly in United States.

Just recently found your chanel, excellent story telling with perfect editing!! Love it The story was so tragic, i teared up several times 😢

This is so eerily similar to the fire in Romania, at Colectiv . From how the fire started, to the exit being blocked, to the people in charge not being prepared for anything like this, even to "people" blaming the victims/families. So sad that all of these lives have been lost because of neglect!

I’m 32 and I partied a lot in college. Sometimes I’ll still go to a bar every now and then. I’ve lived all over, including internationally. I am also an avid live music fan, going to as many concerts as I can. I have never once thought ‘is this building safe?’ Or ‘what is the noise dampening foam made of?’ I hardly even look for emergency exits. That’s so scary.

@vain101 Unfortunately, the government is also to blame for this tragedy. There was a similar inspection like the one you mentioned. But what we suspect is that there was corruption on the part of those responsible for ensuring that the nightclub followed the legislation. That's why the owner wasn't arrested, because his arrest would draw attention to these other people within the government and the fire department. The Netflix documentary has more details about this part of the story.

It's such a habit to just automatically assume that everything we attend and places we go are just safe. Until you have a fire you don't question it. Our house caught on fire in 2008 and I still triple check light switches and fuses and make sure any risk of fire is eliminated or addressed as much I can. I keep extra fire extinguishers....

So much blame. The people who used the fire extinguisher for non-emergency non-fire use, the people who didn't replace it, the person who used the firework that wasn't indoor-safe, the person who sold him the firework knowing he was going to use it inside... 242 people MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD by idiots. Society doesn't pass out enough death sentences anymore.

I usually don’t tear up at true crime stories. I’ve been watching/ listening to them for over 10 years; but this one I couldn’t help but choke up. I’m a bartender and frequent my fair share of clubs (i’m 23), and to be in a space of having fun and trying to let loose only to lose your life is one of my biggest fears. I remember hearing this story when I was younger but now that i’m an adult it hits different. I hope the souls that were lost that night are safe and able to be at peace even with the tragic event. I hope all the survivors, families and friends are able to heal.

This case is SO similar to the Cromañón tragedy in Argentina, I still remember watching the news the next morning with the amount of dead people rising by the minute, all from 17 to 21 years old. It was devastating.
