Lhe toll of the accident could have been much worse. As rapper NeS began his concert at the Maison de la Radio in Paris, as part of the Hyper Weekend Festival, the slab of the pit gave way under the feet of the spectators on Saturday January 21. According to The Parisiana pogo-type crowd movement is believed to have caused the accident, which injured twelve people.

On videos posted on social networks, we see the rapper stop singing and wonder what is going on. In the pit, spectators fell 1.40 meters. “It’s a madness, loose the singer, after making sure that his audience was fine. But that’s rap! The stage manager then quickly intervened, asking the spectators to keep calm. A decision was then made to evacuate the room.

On Twitter, Radio France assured that the state of health of the twelve injured seems “reassuring” the day after the accident. An expertise will be carried out to determine the exact causes of the accident.
