Welcome to When It Goes Wrong, the podcast about disasters, accidents and when things fall apart. On this episode we will be covering crush disasters - mainly Hillsborough where in 1989, 97 people were killed at a football game in Sheffield UK. We will then summarise some other crushes Astroworld where in 2021, 10 people were killed at a concert in Houston Texas and the Love Parade festival crush in Germany. This will be a 2 part series.
