If you get something
out of watching 56 people die a horrendous death in a tragic accident - this link is not necessary :(

At the same time
it does show how quickly a fire can get out of hand - and how devastating the results can be. Not lessons that you would ordinarily get a chance to learn before it's too late.
From what I remember, the fire spread across by being channeled by the roof. The later smouldering victims quite far from the initial source were heated by the radiation from the fire - despite being far from it. Very very scary.
I would agree not nice - but I'll take a video like this to educate over a shock site any day. Not necessary? Important not to forget the lessons, I feel.

If the video is being
shown as part of fire training, then I suspect the lessons are not being lost by those who need to remember them.
I'm personally uneasy about such things being on the internet and available to everyone when it's possible and likely to be used as a non-contextualised shock video by idiots (not that this thread is doing that.)
I don't see what lessons I could learn by watching it, so I won't.
