Festival Fails: A Grim Reminder of Safety's Forgotten Price A 41 year old man is dead and at least six others injured after a large sign collapsed at the Big Church Festival in West Sussex.
The festival, which claims to be the UK's biggest Christian gathering, has been marred by tragedy. The incident serves as a stark reminder that safety often takes a backseat when it comes to large scale events.
While the festival organizers may have prioritized spectacle over security, strong gusts of wind were reported during the event, raising questions about whether safety was truly considered in the planning stages.
