A man in his 40s died after falling from the upper tier of Wembley stadium during an Oasis reunion concert. Witnesses reported panic as staff attempted CPR shortly after the fall. Friends of the deceased raised concerns about the security setup and excessive alcohol consumption, claiming it led to a slippery floor and chaotic behavior among concert-goers. Calls for increased safety measures included suggestions like the presence of security at aisle exits to prevent future accidents. The incident prompted a formal investigation by the Health and Safety Executive.
Emma, 40, from Liverpool, expressed her ongoing distress about the incident, stating, "I've been feeling awful ever since I can't stop thinking about him. It happened directly behind our right shoulders."
Mike, who works in health and safety, stated, "Beer was coming from everywhere. I got hit by an empty cup right on the side of the head. If it had been full it would really have hurt."
Witnesses described the chaotic scene immediately after the fall, with several staff attempting CPR: "It's quite traumatic, seeing people just doing CPR on someone frantically."
Emma urged improvements in safety measures, saying, "They should put the security guard at the bottom of all the aisles too, and permanently station them there to stop people falling off."
