Stage collapse -- TheStudio

[TheStudio]

Hey guys,

Sadly I have to inform you that an unfortunate accident has happened in Ottawa.

Every year we have a festival called "Bluesfest". Bluesfest is our main festival, attracting up to 15 000 people for a single concert. But this year, because of the severe weather we had tonight, the main stage has collapsed due to the wind. To be clear, I did NOT set up this stage and I am in no way associated with the companies who did.

Be warned, this is not the first time this happened to this company's stages, it has happened twice before. Both resulting in death. Luckily, no one has died today. One man was injured when a pole hit him in the head, he is now in hospital with life threatening injuries. Another is also in hospital with severe injuries.

Here is the video:
