Why are they using the high school musical music ? <| sep |> I think only people who have never been in a crowd crush are going to judge the people trampling . When you ' re in a crowd like this , you literally have no control over where you ' re going . Everyone behind you who can ' t see what ' s happening in front is pushing you forward , over about ten other people who have fallen and of course you then fall too and join the pile of bodies . Even in this video you can see people falling because they tried to stop for the person who had already fallen , but the force of the crowd behind them was too great . At a certain density , people start behaving less like individuals and more like a fluid . The only people that can be blamed for crowd crushes and tramplings anywhere are event organizers . For instance in this video you can clearly see that the first person to fall did so because the pressure of the crowd pushed him into a fucking stack of baskets that was directly blocking the doorway .
