Doesn't really matter how small the hole is, if you suddenly start to fall then your natural reaction is to try and grab hold of something, so people probably dragged others down with them

Also, many people panicked when they found out what was happening, so many people (130 or so) got injured too.

Horrific.

Would never have happened in England.

if it had happened in Newcastle, there would have been way more fatalities. 80 minutes is probably the busiest time in the concourse and outside.
