USA :Irish Students Killed In Balcony Collapse
In California
http://news.sky.com/story/1503111/ir...lcony-collapse [Five Irish students have been killed and eight others injured after a balcony collapsed at an apartment building in Berkeley, California.] http://media.skynews.com/media/image...-1-762x428.jpg They should have been told not to dance on them |
Very sad, looks like a few of the injured could die also
|
Just heard this on the news. What a terrible thing to happen.

poor kids :(

I read that the neighbors had been calling the police about them being drunk hooligans before in the night. sounds like they were morons. The size of the balcony in the pictures, how the **** is anyone stupid enough to think it's okay to have 14 people on it? The balcony looks like it was made to have a few potted plants on it, not 14 drunk college kids.

:rolleyes:
|
Looks like the balcony wasn't up to health and safety standard. It was made of wood for Christ sake. Americans cutting corners again.

[The structure was not designed for practical use it emerges, as investigators examine rotten beams as a cause for the collapse.]
