Love how people just sit there, looking on, too cool for school. FUCKIN' MOVE IT PEOPLE! Ever hear of the Station Nightclub Fire.
Bereman
Looks like it was an exterior area, meaning a lot more ways of getting free of the area.
icurays1
pretty much everyone in this video
Baronaccio
There were the trendy seats. There was the DJ set. There were the cool drinks. All the hype required. It has been a success.
secondbest
Went from "idiots!" to "idiots get out!" to "it's outside so you're still alive, phew"
WorstWurst
The roof, the roof...
dcnblue
We don't need no water...
SteveMND
I hope no one was actually hurt, but GOD DAMN I do love it when stupid behavior is instantly rewarded.
historycat
Flammable and INflammable mean the same thing!?!?!?
MellifluousJoker
vakler
Holdenmeownbeer
Hmmm, how'd I know that was gonna happen?
MacNero00
This outcome had 100% chance of happening. There was no other way it could end.
MADchemEE
Any location reasonably large/freq enough rentals,will have policies about such drapery&fabric decorations…& addl fire suppression measures.

So is it a boy or a girl? Never can tell with these gender reveal parties anymore

I can't believe no one said it... The roof! The roof! The roof is on fire! We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn!
woozle
that. that could go wrong.
Huor
Jesus, that could've been a mass casualty event.
Burke616
Who knew Whitesnake was back at it?
DUDE
PaddyWagon87
I like the guy who ran up to the fire like he was gonna do something, then ran away
boomchacle
Probably to get an extinguisher

Did you go to the party last night? It was LIT

If you’ve never heard of the station night club fire you should see this… this is how bad these things can be https://youtu.be/Ra1FFAc0ccE

Rule number one. If you enter a crowded basement club with low celling, shady emergency exits and wires outside - leave.

First thing that came to mind
WillemHellfire
This is still hard to watch. I caution anyone thinking about watching this need to be warned: It's very disturbing and heartbreaking.

You'd think after the Cocoanut Grove nightclub fire in '42, they'd have learned. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocoanut_Grove_fire
ProbablyDrunkAgain
Dumbasses.

Ithinkiloveher93
In an emergency its important to stay calm, some of these people were TOO calm.
eastend666
Shit's on fire, yo, and these idiots are taking it way too casual.
DontcallmeLen
"This is fine" IRL
BedouinBirthingBlanket
wow this is neat

Lord! Dumbasses!

"Must be part of the show!"
TestyZesticles
Did that motherfucker run in there with a champagne bottle like he was thinking to put the fire out?
sesamesnapsinhalf
Vodka works better.
souleater2847
Man you haven’t partied hard enough if you haven’t!
korndogg83
Always get Sambuca!
Cucumberclouds
Panic.
ricpaul
Better than nothing. A LOT better than nothing. It's not like it will make it worse, alcohol content is way too low.
necrojoe
This. with the carbonation, it'd even get some pressure to be able to spray some liquid from a little bit of a distance.
Alpine262
Yeah its actually not a terrible idea. Not ideal but not the worst. Would have been better to dunp it on a table cloth and smother.
I doused a fire before it could burn my parents house down by using a Coca Cola can. One of my better ideas right after one of my dumbest...
PotatOSTheCreator
So now the rest of the story, how'd the fire start?
Collected Ronson and Zippo lighters. Filled a Zippo and wiped the excess fuel with toiletpaper before testing it. Fuel infused toiletpaper >
Addictive09
I'm surprised we survived this long...
witheredspoon
Wow a lot of stupid followed by a lot of inaction.
hotfezz
Stupidity yes, but the inaction is probably shock. People dont expect to suddenly be in danger.
stillnotawake
Not a single person stopped, dropped and rolled.
thelonepig
I've read about Coconut Grove fire in a book called "Burn Unit" and I just said out loud GET THE FUCK OUT! Smoke inhalation too.
petresun
A metric shit ton of dummy people!
prettydumb
i mean what are you going to do lol. you can watch or panic
Artsisdead
You can get up and get out when you see your life in possible danger? I know that's a difficult to grasp for some people though

We don’t need no water, let the motherfucker burn. Burn motherfucker, burn.
barnwolf
Thirty seconds from when the fire started to when the fire extinguisher showed up. That's not bad. Most wouldn't know where one was.
NickyThanksYou
As a former fire fighter this is very true. I was surprised to see one at all.
BrotherEstapol
All the staff should know exactly where they all are.
CanadianEngineer
“Should” being the operative word
Ya, but most the people there aren't staff, and many of the staff wouldn't have immediately noticed the fire in the hectic environment.
*like if they were in the back, or in a different room, or simply facing a different direction and focusing on something.
leaderofthedamned
I've never seen a fire extinguisher at my job which is funny cause our last office burned down due to an electrical issue...
waitwuh
i would legit bring one. Or if you park your car close by might not hurt to have one in it too.
LooseyGooseyBrett
Not much you could do here.
MapleSyrupMafia
I can name at least one thing... pack your shit and leave. Lots of people waited until the roof was on fire to get up.

MagnorCriol
Considering everything else going on, I’m sure many of them thought that it might be part of the show.
yournamechecksout
Gotta get your moneys worth when the flaming bottles of alcohol come out.
I feel like a fire extinguisher woukd/should have been readily available. Took way too long for one to arrive.
Unless there's one immediately there; you are s.o.l.
ParallelParkingInABurka
Seriously though,WTF?! Who holds fireworks up to fabric and can NOT immediately tell that that whole thing's gonna go up in flames?
EccentricNimoy
This is the site I saw a guy light off a bottle rocket he held in his butthole. People are dumb+
ProphetofEntropy
soon as i saw the fluffy hoop i knew how the video was going. synthetic fibers are basically solidified gasoline. any bit of fire=this
MrAdamArce
Going by past history of "gender reveals" A LOT of people
neithermenoryou
Lots of people, happens fairly regularly that people use sparklers indoors near curtains or other fabric ornaments and then set everything
on fire.
Eridianne
Like. From the number of disastrous sparkler related videos we get on a weekly basis you'd think this would be the new Stop Drop and Roll
