Watched the documentary on this again a few weeks ago. Still amazing, and so important to be reminded of what we do and why we do it. If I ever find myself in that part of the world again it is on my list to visit.
 
This fire has been used as a case study in several courses I have taken. The thing that sticks in my mind is that many of the patrons were still at their tables when the bodies were recovered, they were overtaken by the smoke and flames that quickly.
