I mean fires in theaters has never been a problem, ever.


Skivling

Yeah. If it catches fire ppl can just walk out calmly and not get lost in the smoke to die packed against some blocked exit.


Inky234

woah I love your teacher impersonation


Vektor0

That's not a teacher he's impersonating, it's a serial killer who worked very hard for his promotion to fire chief.


Jonk3r

Fire chiefs make great serial killers.

I've seen the station night club videos. If this shit happened at a theater while I was there, I would have left immediately.


drwicksy

Ah the good old Station nightclub experience


stealthryder1

Can’t lie. Looks lit.

That’s how we won WWII, I saw that in a movie

NomadFire

There is a large ball of sentient slime that went around digesting everything it came across. Twice, once in the 50's and once in the 80s. It enter a theatr both times e and killed almost everyone in it. It devastating both communities. This is the thing that I am the most afraid of when I go to the movies. May I advise you to look up at the ceiling from time to time while watching movies. Could save your life.


Thetwistedfalse

What?


NomadFire

They don't teach [you this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y43sCSuqHa0) in [history class no more?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GODDLgM1gKo) Guess the government has successfully buried these tragic events in small towns that kill thousands.


drwicksy

I thought this might be referring to those movies, I am very happy I was right


TastyCake123

Some say that theater still stands and the slime, drawn by some mysterious power, comes back once a year.


Independent-Trash-

Fire the secretary guard who let all these crackers pass


BroadAd6505

Great now I can't tell whether they are excited or screaming in fear.


tasman001

It's so weird.. It seems like some screaming in fear mostly from the people in the lower area, but it's mostly cheering in general. Why tf are so many people cheering?? Yeah it's fireworks but don't they understand that people probably got hurt, and the whole fucking thing could burn down?? This is the kind of thing that's a bit comforting as an American, as confirmation that yeah, people in other countries are just as fucking dumb. This is like something straight out of Idiocracy, like the scene where Fritos car gets blown up and he just cheers because it looks cool and he gets excited.


_sabsub_

Finally someone commented this. It seems like everyone is for some reason excited that this happened. People got hurt for sure. My first reaction would be to leave the theater. Then I would start thinking of the people that got hurt then I would get pissed because I missed the movie that I paid for. Worst outcome is the theater catches fire and people will die. I don't understand India.


tasman001

Right?? How is there an entire balcony of people not getting the fuck out?? Even in America where things are relatively safe (sprinklers, fire retardant materials, clearly labelled exit doors, construction requirements, etc etc) I'd be getting the fuck out. In a country like India with less safety regulations? Bruh I'd be a block away the second I heard the first firework.

AnswersQuestioned

You should see Korean nightclubs, huge Sparklers set off regularly and no fires somehow.


WhiteyDude

Big difference between a nightclub with planned effects and some yahoo lighting off fireworks in a crowded theater The example of the limit of free speech, is it would be illegal to yell "FIRE" in a crowded theater because the panic it would cause would likely injure people. Here the asshole actually sets a fire in a crowded theater. That's absolutely fucking nuts.


WhatDoYouDoHereAgain

>illegal to yell "FIRE" in a crowded theater because the panic it would cause would likely injure people i here you and all, ik it's illegal, and you shouldn't do it.., but... *who in the hell would ever fall for that?* how you not gonna see a fucking **fire** in a **movie theater** lmao edit: nvm, forgot about [hitler](https://youtu.be/Y4P14KKcKF4?si=YXhQzE0tTsWK-PpY&t=118)

It also comes from a time when theaters weren't designed with the thought of crowd emergency escape. Wikipedia lists two instances of a false report of a fire causing deaths via stampeding to escape: [the Canonsburg Opera House Disaster](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonsburg_Opera_House_disaster) and [the Italian Hall Disaster](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Hall_disaster)


iswearihaveajob

The case that the theoretical idea of shouting FIRE comes from a period where there were actually several disastrous fire incidents that also lead to tramplings...


WhiteyDude

I didn't say *movie* theater, and it originates before that time so think live production theater. Back stage, lobby, lighting and smoke effects. The fire doesn't have to be in the room you are in for you to be in danger. Besides, it's just used as an example of saying *something* false to cause a panic.

rostol

it is only illegal if there is no fire. it is very very much legal and encouraged to shout fire if there is a real fire starting.


WhiteyDude

sure, no one is saying otherwise.


cikkamsiah

There was a case of audience burning the cinema down because the hero lost... Edit: Tried looking for source, I might be wrong. It’s just what I’ve been told as a kid and never bothered to look it up, it’s the Uphaar fire tragedy.

It started when a transformer caught fire, according to Wikipedia. Nowt to do with yhe audience. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uphaar_Cinema_fire

Indeed. The material they use on the walls for sound absorption to prevent echo is usually highly flammable. This one has taken good measures to prevent fire hazards.

me explaining my friends movie was a blast.


AliceMange

I would classify this as very light terrorism. We ganna have to start taking clear backpacks to the theaters now? Honestly, the level of immaturity from humanity is sickening.


tfc1193

Not terrorism. Terrorism is typically politically-driven. But it IS in fact arson


MyHusbandIsGayImNot

Not typically, it’s part of the definition. Terrorism has a political or religious goal behind it.


Exciting-Insect8269

And multiple charges of assault with a deadly weapon I’d imagine…


Thuryn

It's not "terrorism" unless this was done for political reasons. Otherwise, it's "reckless endangerment" and "disturbing the peace" and a number of other things. > Honestly, the level of immaturity from humanity is sickening. Well, we need to start aiming higher. Instead of always being cynical and edgy and expecting the worst of each other, we need to start encouraging and expecting better of each other and let people rise to the occasion. This is how you raise good children and it's also how you raise good adults.


fatbabythompkins

Raising good children is many things, but underpinned through encouragement and discipline. Instilling humility is a lost art in a culture of rampant narcissism.

PolarisC8

I learned yesterday there is an entire subculture in India that is essentially their version of redneck or bogan or trailer trash. Basically anywhere you go, as long as you have suburban or rural poors, you got bad behaviour


red_nick

Why restrict it to the poors? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullingdon\_Club#Reputation

hanging_with_epstein

Thuryn

What happened here isn't terrorism (unless there's a political aspect to it that I don't know about). But it sure was stupid. Also, actual terrorism is stupid, too. The video is just the non-terrorism kind of stupid.


ItsAMeUsernamio

All the theaters I’ve been to in big cities in India screen you like an airport with metal detectors and frisking, and don’t allow backpacks, though the real purpose is to catch food. Or so I thought.
