Absolute Bafflement. Great Concern. 150 Dead of CARDIAC ARREST. I believe it could be the Catecholamine Surge. But, what set it off? Working.

People who die in stampedes die from suffocation or being crushed. Not Cardiac Arrest. This does not look like it qualifies as a stampede.

The total is up to 150 dead of cardiac arrest. I am astounded, bewildered and baffled. People die of ASPHIXIATION and BEING CRUSHED in stampedes. Not CARDIAC ARREST. This doesn’t even look like it could have been a “stampede.”

What the hell?

It looks like mass Catecholamine Surge. But, what? What could have set it off in this many? Simultaenously?

A mystery we can work on together. I have never seen or read about anything like this. Echoes of something similar in the US Southwest last year (I think?) come to mind.

THIS. This is what a stamepe that killed 2000 individuals looks like.

This is how people die in a crowd:

The crowd closed tighter and tighter. I was saved by my height. Short people were smothered alive. We were caught between the walls of houses on-one side and a row of army trucks on the other.

Smothered Alive. Not COLLAPSING FROM CARDIAC ARREST!

Current status is that over 50 people have collapsed and possible multiple fatalities due to overcrowding during the Halloween festivities. Stay tuned for more info.

How? How can this happen? I am utterly dismayed.

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I have never read about anything like this, other than:

Well, rest assured, we won’t be getting any straight answers from the media.

I will try to look it up, but something similar to this happened in Africa maybe a year ago? A bunch of young people died in a club. The story I heard is they just collapsed and died. When I heard about this today, that's what came to mind. And my first reaction was that somebody is testing something nefarious.
