What you mean?

I'm talking about Knife Party. It's a good group and it sucks that one of the team perished in the fire

It's a video taken during The Station Nightclub Fire.

Shows people stuck (stampeded) in a door but it's less the sights and more the screams of people being burned alive when he walks to the side of the building that gets to you. Do not watch. Wish I never did.

Kowloon Walled City

What the descriptions reminded me of.

When he's walking down the side of the building, the screams are enough to make one sick to their stomach. I had to turn it off.

I wasn't sure what you were referring to. Some say the ghost ship was illegal and shady, yet the event is obviously a tragedy. But there was the deal with knife party.

Didn't know what you were referring to.

Toll up to 36. Only 70% of building cleared due to structural issues.

Article on owner and place

Oakland has a lot of women running things. I like that mayor.

I watched it, terrible. I doubt the screams were as much of the burning alive as it was seeing the flames coming towards them with nowhere to go. I couldn't imagine the terror that was felt by those stuck inside. I wish someone would have rammed the sides of the building with a vehicle to try and create openings.

Places like this are more common than you think. A recently well-known one in Nola was the the Nola Art House where the Tree House was installed. They had awesome parties there, but the tree house didn't adhere to any codes whatsoever. Used to be one in BR in a house right behind Canes on State Street. Artful Dodger or something like that. It had a lot of cool installations inside, but it too would've been a death trap if it went up in flames.

Rode by on the BART yesterday....had my daughter look at graffiti out the opposite window. It's really sad. There are so many of these type places here...rents are so high people get creative with living spaces. I imagine code enforcements will become a priority.

really sad. they are asking family member to provide DNA samples, like hair from brushes, to ID the bodies, so you can imagine the state of what's left. truly horrific for the firefighters and coroner's office people.

I think so as well. Part of why it was so haunting is how the screams get more and more extreme. They didn't sound desperate. They sounded like they were coming from people who were burning to death :|

At one point in the video you can see a person run away from the building fully engulfed in flames :(
