233 people were killed in a nightclub fire in Santa Maria, Brazil on January 27, 2013. The fire started around 2:30am during a performance at the Kiss nightclub when the band lit flare sparks, setting the soundproofing foam on the ceiling on fire. Panic ensued as the large crowd headed for the few emergency exits, resulting in many victims being trampled or asphyxiated by smoke and toxic gases.
