    It happened in 2006, 2004, and 1990 as well,

    Wow, that's crazy. I seen that 2,000,000+ people were there last year.

    RIP to those who passed, thoughts and prayers for the families.

    Lots of people. Not a lot of space. Some people were rushing.

    I'm not too educated on this at all, so correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't/wouldn't there be some sort of system to stop something like this from happening if its happened in the past?

    you can lay the blame squarely on the SA government for failing to properly manage the crowds. Yes it is a massive crowd but they should be prepared after hundreds of years of religious holidays

    You have no idea about the actual situation.. the only way to stop it is to limit access per hour and its easier said than done
