Faustian Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Not going to look at your link, but I think I've seen them already. Very disturbing images. I was sent them via email. They upset me greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorldFun Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 dude your link is a lame bitchy music video of sorts (I fucked your mum)? not sure censor of tragedy of events like these is going to help people understand how horrid it is. isn't this the latest logic applied on cigarette warnings - as scary victim photos as possible although I'm not sure whether any preventive effect is working or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddy Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Yeah, Gobbledonk has posted the Kate Perry link again by mistake. Note to Gobble: Please don't correct this and post the real link, I would rather not see the photos and I am sure no one else on here would also.

Faustian Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Found a link to all the names of the dead on the Santika web forum, but it is all in Thai; http://www.santikaclub.com/webboard/santika_post_forum.php?groupid=1&forum_id=673 I didn't see anyone I know. I looked at every name. A heart breaking list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steffi Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Sur Ba is an death trap is there ever was one. I've been there several times as I've been interested in the telecom "black" box business in the past and that's very popular there. You can even screw up your respiratory system just be hanging around on the streets in that area because the pollution is just terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorldFun Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 all I understood on the victims list was that 2 17year olds appeared there. very sad for all of them young as older. 1 likely theory formed IMO based on numerous reports etc is that the roof construction was (too) weak & then hit by a fairly large piece of fire work from outside & slowly, but surely burning down through the roof to the ceiling & then spreading very quick & collapsing fast. that goes well with reports of people seeing the fire on the roof from outside first & running in to warn the crowds only obsessed with the fireworks & realizing too late. this completely dismisses the somewhat unlikely speculations on sprinklers or fireworks brought inside & lit as the cause. still although that would make it a bad coincidence only likely repeated at occasions like new years it really would be nice to get a definite cause...
