holy crap (both at the video, and at the amount of detail in the report).

Hard not to laugh tbh. The music + the fact that people didn't seem to understand that there were gonna be multiple waves was funny.

Just saw the video here on our 6PM news, and yes he was pretty lucky.

See the woman slam into the post? (50 sec)

Of course it's ok to laugh. The pain of others is hilarious.

I actually don't think that people getting hurt like that is funny, at least not the incidents where people were actually injured. People falling down - riotously funny. People falling down and snapping bones - not funny.
But, perhaps those unfortunate folks will have a bit more of an appreciation for what the Navy, Marines, and especially those mad, courageous bastards in the Coast Guard have to deal with on a regular basis.

The whole time I was waiting for someone to figure out that they should stand on the downhill side of the pillars to avoid being crushed. The closest they came was propping themselves against them until the next wave of chairs came through.
