4 minutes of chaos.. Pukkelpop 2011 (what was).

[arnesjobbe]

da u camera da overleeft heeft, shiat.. ik ga't nooit meer vergeten

[Lockenmensch]

Ich möchte euch meine Erschütterung und tiefstes Mitgefühl ausdrücken.

Es sind schier unglaubliche Bilder die ihr da gedreht habt, Bilder die beweisen wie schnell ein Trip wie das Pukkelpop Festival zum blanken Horror werden kann.

Ich bin selbst Festivalgänger und auf sämtlichen Festivals mit dabei, und genau dieser Sturm traf ein paar Stunden später zum Beispiel auch das Summer Breeze. Es grenzt an ein Wunder dass bei uns niemand zu Schaden kam und alles gut verlaufen ist.

Grüße nach Belgien.

I know they said high winds and stromy weather but that is utterly devastating, my heart goes out to all those who were there or injured, hope next year will be more prepared and every possible danger addressed, seriously not good :(

Thank you so much for your reply. I need to send you a one page release that you have to sign. That way we comply with the network. Please provide an email where I can send the document to. Thanks again! Gabriel Gonzalez / Pilgrim Studios, North Hollywood, California.

[GABRIELCHILE1970]

I work for a TV show on History Channel. I would like to get in contact with you about your Pukkelpop clip. Thanks!

[PashavonAustralien]

@GABRIELCHILE1970 Hi, you have my permission to use this footage. It was filmed without looking at the screen, just in my hand as I was being aware of my surroundings, looking out no one was hurt around me etc, but all the same not much I could do about the situation other than in my immediate vincinity! was some crazy stuff. I will be returning to Belgium from Sydney for PKP 2012!

[systemdowncity]

Shiiiit hahaha

[eracish]

3 maand later en ik krijg nog altijd tranen bij het zien van deze beelden.

RIP.

[Cohesika]

brrrr kippenvel Ö

[XDelientje]

no happy memories. Crazy shit

[MissCmi]

I'm starting a project about Pukkelpop 11. Have you lost someone? Were you hurt? Have you met new people? Do you want to tell your story to the world? We are tired of the image the media created.The people that are given the chance to speak up, aren't the people who are the real voice of pkp. This creates a wrong image, we want people to know what REALLY happened that day. If you wanna be a part of this, if you wanna be the Voice Of Pukkelpop 2011, then mail us your story. vop2011@hotmail.be .

[zwaardwalvisje]

Those people at 00:40 were really lucky.. See that huge branch falling down right next to them! Probably scared the hell out of them :/

[Laurashizzle95]

En ik was daarvoor nog kwaad op mijn moeder omdat ze niet op tijd was met het bestellen van mijn ticket...

[oliverecords]

rock 'n' roll

[StephVDV]

@3630burak MIsschien is een beetje respect hier wel op zijn plaats. Ik was zelf niet aanwezig maar kende wel veel mensen. Die mensen hebben het nog steeds moeilijk. Ik denk dat wij er in de eerste plaats zijn om te luisteren, niet om de mensen af te breken zoals u nu doet.

[FloridaSeverWeather]

that tree limb was so close to hitting those people D:

[DaBurntToaster]

wish i was there, standing next to one of those who died or were injured, so i could have helped them.....

[rom1fab]

2012 get close

[90talisten]

Take off this video for respect of the victims, there are people who are sick and masturbate to these kind of videos were people die.

soo yeah

[andyncfcgetshypedup]

OH MY GOD. A TORNADO, LIGHTNING, THUNDER & RAIN DESTROYED PUKKELPOP FOR GOOD. THIS IS IT.

[UnlimitedBeatkillaz]

@andyncfcgetshypedup the organisation anounced that next year, pukkelpop will go on, as big as it is, and maybe even one day longer

i was there this year it was a real disaster, it was the best disicion to cancel the rest of the festival

[liiesbetth]

This was my first Pukkelpop of my life and I was really excited to be there for 5 days fun and music!

I can tell , I won’t ever forget this edition, I really were in shock and I still am when I think about it or I see some video’s, I guess everyone is.. This was the worst evening of my life, I hope I don’t have to go through this a second time. I was scared as hell!

[radio5live]

Vandaag heeft de ontslagnemende regering beslist dat dit een officiele ramp is. Today Balgian Government decided to name "pukkelpop 2011" as an official disaster !!

[iinigo360]

cool mja wel erg

[maauwieprrprr]

amai die tak

[mlthma]

In Ransberg, also on the Pukkelpop's storm's track, windspeed reached 111 km/h. Viewing this video, I can say winds were much stronger in Kiewit, perhaps 120 - 130 km/h, or more... But there was no tornado. "Just" a huge downburst.

[100emily121]

@mlthma they reasearched the actual windspeed after the event it reached 170 km/h!

[slcschaser]

wat een ongelooflijke downburst is dit zeg! Bizar :( En echt op het verkeerde moement op de verkeerde plek.. Echt heel erg!

[giovanni123cooreman]

Beste,

Voor school zou ik een reportage moeten maken over pukkelpop. We zouden daar heel graag amateurbeelden voor gebruiken om aan te tonen hoe erg de storm tekeerging. Ik had dus de vraag of je me deze beelden kon doorsturen zodat we zo konden gebruiken voor de reportage. Als je akkoord gaat dat we de beelden gebruiken stuur me dan in een privé bericht. Alvast bedankt !

[PashavonAustralien]

@giovanni123cooreman. Yeah, your welcome to use parts of or this whole movie. Best of luck with the project!

[MrWilliamShakesphere]

@glennvanwezel ...we blame God for our OWN foolishness. Truth hurts AND THERE ARE results for EVERY decision we make GOOD or BAD.

Where exactly in my previous comment did I make light of people dying in this storm?? People die everyday sometimes tragically; sometimes naturally. Regardless, THIS life IS temporary. Period.

STOP being ANGRY at EVERYTHING.

IF I did not speak truth in my previous comment, BUT ONLY WHAT YOU WANTED TO HEAR, it would not have gotten downvoted. Grow up; face reality.

[crashtestdummy87]

@MrWilliamShakesphere it doesn't amaze me ur yet another american preaching about god. face reality? kinda funny if u believe in a god who created a man and a woman (adam and eve) who populated the whole earth. the whole bible is written by a lunatic imo, or a genius who made alot of money on his sect. also funny most storms/tornadoes happen in the us where most of u believers are... grow a brain, if there was a god he should have given u a better one in ur only life

[RetroFishman]

Reminds me of a Fleetwood Mac concert in 71

[2005morda]

Hi mate ! im ur Companion guy on the train to brussels ! :P remember me? :)

[Firefly192]

What did ThePirateBayWins say? His comment was removed.

[LCChiefer]

I came in for free, thats never happened me before...

[Mubble]

Why is there always one outcast talking about God? Its just high and low pressure coupled with moisture in the clouds. Get with the rest of us in the 21St century!

[MrWilliamShakesphere]

YEAH, that's right, keep denying God out of your lives and pretending everything is 'OK'. We bring this on ourselves. God was NOT in this storm, BUT because 'storms' do happen to people we blame God for our own foolishness.

[legoghost]

Thats some storm if you ask me !

[800piranhas]

:(

[Djet2k]

godv gasten!!! chance da ge die ingang nie op hunder hebt gehad!! Ik zat zelf in de chateau tent maar ben op tijd gaan lopen , toen ik zag dat er stukken op het podium vlogen was het voor mij genoeg

[SqoundreL]

too much excitement for our small country

[billybizar]

Wow. It is a small wonder there aren't more than 4 dead casualties. That falling branch could have been deadly for someone.

[PCauberghs]

Hey that's me from 2:34 to 2:40, passing by from left to right! Wow!

(I have uploaded some pre-storm footage by myself)

I'm still trying to recover more clips from my camera (smartphone), but the memory card got corrupted while shooting in the storm; smartphone is broken too...

[Synthorasify]

Big up to you Paul for waiting for the girls over there, i'm glad we're all ok and hope we can get a fresh start next year. the people that died this day will forever be remembered, i will not forget that night for my entire life. greets, Mat

[PashavonAustralien]

@lietjelie Were you there? I didn't see anybody on the ground in need of help. Everyone was making their own way to safety & I had no idea what was happening other than exactly where I was. Had anybody been injured in my presence, like any true festival goer I'd of dropped everything & helped them. All I could do in this moment was film because it is needed to see what happened & help Pukkelpop make plans if this happens again. I go to many festivals mate & am the most helpfull guy. Thanks.

[ThomasZiano]

@PashavonAustralien I think lietjelie wasn't addressing you but this "ThePirateBayWins" person. It's indeed a good thing to record & share this footage, it makes the people who weren't there understand the horror you guys were in. No one will ever be able to say it didn't happen, or it wasn't that bad. That's the importance of this new form of media! So big up to you!

[NLBlackname55NL]

@ThomasZiano Where were you during the storm? I helped a group of men drag out someone that got a branch of a tree into his face and was bleedy quite badly by the metal construction that came down

[ThomasZiano]

@NLBlackname55NL I wasn't there mate, but yeah here in Belgium everyone knows at least 10 people or so who were there.

[lietjelie]

idd wtf, ik heb zo een tak op iemand zien vallen... en iemand dan niet kunnen helpen om je eigen leven te redden... de hel...

ge moest u schamen, snul!

[X0RZ0R]

@ThePirateBayWins Sebiet een feestje op uj domme kop, zielepoot. echt laag ze. Lach nog wa meer met doden

[Tybooooo]

@ThePirateBayWins denk da je wel anders zou geklonken hebben moest je daar zelf geweest zijn dickhead
