At least 453 people were killed, and 719 were injured, in a stampede near Mecca, Saudi Arabia, on Thursday morning. The deaths occurred around 9 a.m. on the first day of Eid al-Adha, one of the holiest holidays in the Muslim calendar, and as millions of Muslims were making their pilgrimage, or hajj, to Mecca. The accident took place at the intersection of two roads in Mina, causing many to fall and others to panic, according to Saudi Arabia’s civil defense directorate.

It appeared to be the deadliest accident during the hajj since 1990, when 1,426 pilgrims perished in a stampede in a tunnel linking Mecca and Mina

How could anyone answer that question?

These things usually happen when people are pushed against a barrier. I think if you're caught against that barrier, you're done.

I'm proud of myself whenever I get through customs in Dammam without flipping my shite. There's no way I could be anywhere around that type of crowd in that country. I/we wouldn't be allowed there anyways, but I'd probably lose it well before a stampede happened.

Who would have thought that the running of the bulls is much safer than this holy Muslim holiday

It amazes me how human life means so little to these Muslims.

Just curl up into a ball. Should be easy to survive.

They need to hold this event once a week. This can't happen enough.

Step one, cover body in KY.
Step two, run into the crowd.

Imagining the body odor of that crowd almost made me throw up.

So the big question is do the dead still get 72 virgins in the after life even though they didn't blow themselves up in the name of Allah?
