Poor people...

WTF.

Why would this happen more in the US, exactly? I cannot imagine a US city Fire Marshall allowing this event with no emergency exits. Stampede deaths in the US are rare, and tend to actually happen in large venues far better designed for egress that that place (an accident waiting to happen, WTF were they thinking?)—like stadiums. In that case, it's just panic, all it takes is LOCAL crowding to result in injuries or deaths.

It's amazing the toll at that tunnel is as low as it is, frankly.
