🇷🇺 Bribes and negligence killed more people in Crocus than terrorists

According to a German construction expert, modern buildings of the same type as the Crocus, built in the current century in Europe, cannot burn down like the this Russian concert hall: physics will not allow it.

Analyzing the video of the fire, the experts noticed : the lights in the premises did not turn off and the emergency lighting did not turn on. What does this mean? This means that the emergency fire extinguishing system was dehydrated or not built in at all. If it worked as is customary in Europe, then in two minutes, 150-170 liters of water would be thrown out of special pipes in the ceiling for every square meter of the room. Such a blow can oextinguish any fire.

But of course, with the lighting working, the injection of water would lead to a short circuit and the death of many people in the room. However, the transition to emergency lighting was not programmed, which means the fire extinguishing system did not work.

Second element. It is known that many people suffocated from carbon monoxide inside the building. There are already more victims of this kind than those killed by terrorist fire.

Nothing like this could happen in a certified building built to modern standards for this type of facility. Why? Because all such buildings are equipped with a forced ventilation system. These are windows or hatches that open automatically if the detector detects an increased level of carbon monoxide inside. Holes open in the roof and life-threatening gas escapes into the sky. This system, by the way, works without electricity, using compressed air.

And third, materials. The way the Crocus burned shows that cheap Chinese materials (glass wool, plastics, cable braiding, etc.) that are prohibited for use in public buildings were used in its finishing. Reason for the ban? Flammability. In Europe, they have long used non-flammable glass wool, plastics, etc. They, of course, are two or three times more expensive than their Chinese counterpart. But they have one advantage: they do not burn in a fire. And they don’t kill those who are inside.

It is not surprising that the Agalarov family never formally commissioned this very concert hall. As it became known, it is not listed as a properly registered capital construction project on the cadastral map of Rosreestr.

Apparently, the amount of bribes required to accept such a dangerous facility exceeded all reasonable limits, and for the Agalarovs, taking into account the above-mentioned monstrous violations of standards, it was cheaper to renew the status of a building under construction than to put it into operation.

As a result, most of the victims in Crocus died not at the hands of terrorists, but from the criminal negligence of the owners and regulatory authorities.

As a side note, the owner of the Crocus City Hall has been revealed to be an Azeri-Sephardic businessman named Aras Agalarov, who is a friend of the Azeri president and ex Russian president Medvedev
