Wow.

I was at the event and worked near where the incident happened during RG7.
I didn't see any safety issues with those worker positions.

co-incidences stack up against them.  I didn't see what happened though,
so I dunno if that's correct.

I was just happy that nobody got seriously injured as a result.

Its unfortunate that the people that know the full story can't post it
publically.
