How to protect yourself during stampede
this isnât the usual thing Iâd share on my stupid nerd blog, but this is SO important. I was nearly crushed in a crowd like this once. It was terrifying because you have NO control over the panicking mass of humans around you. you are just at the mercy of all this chaotic force. this is a real thing that can happen very suddenly! it did happen in the news recently! My situation was, the olympics was happening in my city, I was on my way home from school, and a crowd of people suddenly flooded into the street around me. in seconds it went from, busy-city-street-crowded, to, wtf I canât even move crowded. I was so pressed against the backpack of the man in front of me, my feet lifted off the ground a moment. People were climbing lamp posts, signs, bus shelters, trees, everything to get up out of it. it was like the street became an ocean of people, and all the peopleâs survival instincts were making them dumber. everyone was yelling. no one knew how to solve it. police, fire fighters and medics saved us by breaking the locks on the inside of the mall we were trapped next to. a huge group flooded into the building, releasing a bit of the pressure on the people outside. I was in that group that got in.
We were trapped in the mall awhile. Because the olympics was on, they had big screens in a few sitting areas of the mall that would normally be showing the games. but now the coverage was focused on this crowd surge. They showed a helicopter shot of the building we were now in, totally surrounded by colorful dots. a solid mass of humans with no space between. I know someone was partially trampled and needed medics, because I saw that, but i donât know the statistics on who else was hurt, hopefully no one killed! I donât know if these methods can definitely save you, but they might give you a better chance. so watch and share!
Sharing to my own stupid nerd blog for the same reason, this is SO IMPORTANT. Human crushes are one of the most unexpected ways to die. People go out to a show or a sports game, and make it there, but they never come back. Other strategies include staying away from large obstacles (like fences) that you could get crushed against, and doing your best to stay above the crowd. Try to climb onto something if you can.
And also â not to get nitpicky with deadly tragedies, but theyâre called âhuman crushes,â not âstampedes.â Itâs an important difference in description and also in respect. The deaths usually happen because the victims are pinned together in a tight space, they canât breathe (as in the video) and they suffocate. âStampedeâ doesnât convey what actually happened to those people. The crush that happened in Seoul recently wasnât because people âstampeded,â it was because they couldnât move at all and they suffocated. But calling it a âstampede,â youâd think it was the people themselves that ran over each other, like wild animals. Itâs disrespectful and untrue.
Horrifyingly, the victims of many human crushes have been blamed for their own deaths, which are usually purely accidental or due to criminal mismanagement from authorities. If youâre in a mental place to read about tragedies and police corruption, check out the Hillsborough Disaster, in which 97 people died due to the incompetence of the police, who then blamed everything on the victims: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillsborough_disaster
If you canât play the video:
1. Stand like a boxer. Nice wide stance, arms up like youâre preparing to either throw a punch or shield against one, i.e. elbows bent by your waist and fists by your shoulders. That will keep some space around your chest
2. If you fall and canât get up, roll onto your side and curl up in the foetal position

This food is defective. Why is my food broke? GET INTO MY BELLY!
*ACDCâs Back In Black starts playing*
I mean if *I* was taking a stroll through a neighborhood Iâd just moved into with my bestie and the human version of those 12-foot-tall Halloween skeletons just strolled out of a bush and eyeballed me like I might make a nice snack, I would be handling the situation with DRASTICALLY LESS CHILL than the yotes are.
Girl, help they are making me do tasks before the scheduled event.
My conference is in 9 hours; do I have time to bathe?
Sorry but the âa woman just died and her family is mourningâ speech doesnât really apply for the woman whoâs responsible for almost half the worldâs colonisation and the death of millions of people everyday for like 70 years
I hate the monarchy butâŠ. She is not âresponsible for half the worldâs colonisationâ. Do you think colonialism happened in the last 100 years? Do you know anything?
âDo you know anything?â Really now. Did you even look into it before defending this bitch
Um, no. Theyâre not âdefendingâ her by pointing out the original statement is inaccurateâthatâs just correcting misinformation. I mean, I am extremely vocal on this blog about my anti-monarchy views, especially in regard to my distaste for British imperialism as somebody of South Asian descent. But the OP is misleading at best, and just flat out wrong at worst, and I honestly find it kind of offensive that people would disregard the actual, real-life violent history of British imperialism in favour of some half-cocked statement that lets so many responsible parties off the hook for their crimes.
Like, firstly, if youâre really dead set on solely laying the blame for expansion of the British Empire on one single member of the royal family, then that person, without a doubt, should be Queen Victoria. To quote this article, she was the âmatriarch of the British Empire,â as well as a major propopent of its expansion. Between 1814 (just 23 years before Victoria ascended the throne) and the heyday of her reign in 1881, the population of the British Empire literally QUINTUPLED in size. By the time she died in 1901, Victoria was ruling over roughly 400 million âsubjects,â in British-ruled territory that covered approximately 25% of the globe. It hit its peak in 1919 (7 years before Elizabeth IIâs birth) under the reign of George V, after Britain acquired a bunch of German territories under Treaty of Versailles at the end of WWI. By contrast, when Elizabeth took the throne in 1952âabout five years after India & Pakistan kicked off a major wave of decolonisation effortsâBritainâs global territory had shrunk by approximately 68%. By 1970, it had decreased even further:
Now, thereâs absolutely no disputing that Queen Victoriaâs imperialism is part of Queen Elizabethâs family legacy. Thatâs true both from a historical and financial perspective, and something about which I am extremely salty! Victoria fucking ransacked India, and todayâs royals still have the spoils. If you want to join Desi people in hating Liz & Co. for never giving us our fucking stolen diamond back, be my guest. In fact, we will make you cups of chai and feed you rotis while you bitch about it with us. But saying that Elizabeth II was directly responsible for colonising half ÂŒ of the globe is not only factually incorrect, but factually incorrect in a way that either outright erases the most devastating periods of British imperialism (if youâre only including events from 1952-present), or effectively absolves the people who actually engineered the violence (if youâre mentally replacing Liz for Vicky). Now, I admittedly have more beef with Queen Victoria, because my grandfather and great-aunties on the Indian side were literally born under her reign (yes, really, Iâm old), but even so, it seems weird to just⊠rewrite the whole thing. And speaking of absolving people, like⊠yes, the monarchy is a ridiculous fucking institution built on ill-gotten wealth and oppression of the working classes, no argument from me there. But they are not solely responsible for colonialism, and I donât like the implication that it was masterminded single-handedly by one figurehead with a crown whose political role is largely ceremonial. Like, first of all, look up the fucking East India Company, an evil-from-the-depths-of-hell-level corporation built on greed and human suffering. They were acting as agents of British imperialism across swathes of Africa and Asia, eons before Queen Victoria was even born. The British government only got dominion over India after they intervened to stop the East India Company from exerting too much political and commercial control. Like, read up on Robert Clive and the Battle of Plassey sometime, and then imagine Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk buying the French army to invade the Indian subcontinent. While weâre talking about ye olden colonising CEOs, ever heard of Cecil Rhodes? Of course, he had a lot of help in fucking over South Africa from the PM, Lord Salisbury. It was actually Disraeliâs idea to confer the title of âEmpress of Indiaâ on Queen Victoria. Itâs estimated that around 3.8 million people died during the 1943 Bengal famine, which was basically the result of a Winston Churchill policy failure. And it was not any monarch, but Secretary of State for the Colonies Joseph Chamberlain, who said âI believe that the British race is the greatest of the governing races that the world has ever seen⊠It is not enough to occupy great spaces of the worldâs surface unless you can make the best of them. It is the duty of a landlord to develop his estate.â Like, yeah fuck the monarchy for the role they played, but donât act like one single hand-waving, ribbon-cutting inbred royal was the British Empireâs master architect, when this was very much one of historyâs worst fucking group projects.
Finally, a smaller correction, but that above âList of sovereign states headed by Elizabeth IIâ is mostly comprised of former colonies/Commonwealth countries. Now, is the Commonwealth a vestige of Britainâs bygone colonialism? Absolutely, no doubt. But nonetheless, thatâs still a list of independent nations with their own governments whoâat some point between 1952-presentâchose to have the monarch as a state figurehead (albeit not a choice I understand). Also, if you actually look at the chart, itâs presently only a total of 15 countries who still have the monarch as a ceremonial figurehead (including the UK itself, Canada, and Australia). Youâll also note that more than half of these countries have severed ties already, including Barbados, who just became a republic last year (way to go, Barbados!), and Iâm hoping that Charlesâs relative unpopularity will see more nations follow suit. Still, the point stands: It doesnât really make sense to post that as âevidenceâ of the fact that Elizabeth herself was personally responsible for âhalf the worldâs colonisation,â when 1) It only dates back to 1952, well after the peak of the empire 2) None of the nations listed are current British Overseas Territories 3) The linked chart actually shows a decline in independent states using the monarch as a figurehead since the late 1980s. Itâs quite literally making the opposite point as intended.
Anyway, as somebody who doesnât like the monarchy, and thinks a lot about the irrevocable damage wrought by British colonialism, I am begging you guys not to downplay or rewrite its actual history for the sake of a pithy sound-byte on Tumblr dot com. âQueen Elizabeth spent a lifetime benefiting from the spoils of her familyâs imperialist endeavours, and may have recently used some of that tainted wealth to help her son pay out a settlement to the woman who publicly accused him of sex traffickingâ is a perfectly accurate, and scathingly damning statement; you do not need to rewrite British history to make it sound like the woman personally conquered India with an army of bloodthirsty corgis just to make your point.
THANK YOU. (And frankly, given how much Iâm aware Iâm benefitting from the exploitation of others just by existing in society, I canât really bring myself to call the royals out on that too harshly. Itâs on a smaller scale, but Iâm aware of where my food and heat and computer ultimately come from.)
hehehe. that was rad. one should also note, as egalitarian as we are feeling today, that being royalty probably sucks so hard. they donât get to eat a fucking sandwich because there are rules of etiquette they must follow. letâs ban the monarchy for everyoneâs sake. theirs and ours. turn buckingham palace into a museum and library.
