Football : The Causes Of A Football Fire In Football

People don’t know how it started but some people think it started by one of their cows kicking over a lantern and other people think it started from meteors. The fire was 4 miles long and 4 miles wide, about 300 people died from the fire and about 100,000 without homes.The fire caused about 200 million dollars in damage.Almost every person didn’t have a job.

My project is about the Hillsborough Disaster which happened on the 15 April 1989, during the 1988-1989 FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. The disaster was a human crush which took place at the Hillsborough football stadium in Sheffield, England, claiming the lives of 96 people and injuring 766 more. I chose this topic because I had watched a documentary on the disaster and I have family members who are big Liverpool supporters.

Viewer experience of a Cleveland Browns game and Smithville Smithies game is very different. When you walk out of the dimly lit hallway and into the stadium at First Energy, the sun is blinding. The grass field looks so good that it could be easily mistaken as artificial turf. There are over 70,000 fans on any given Sunday. While looking around the stadium you can see orange and brown colors everywhere of fans representing the home team. Occasionally you can see different colors scattered amongst the Brown’s colors of the fans representing the other team. Noise from the crowd is so loud, it makes it hard to hear people sitting in the seat beside you. When the browns are announced they ran out of the tunnel and the whole crowd stands up to cheer. Many fans at the browns game fans are drunk, and yell at the other team’s fans. After the browns run onto the field they start warming up. Quarterbacks start passing the ball to each other, the centers are snapping, and the punters are

Smoke and flames were spewing out of gaping holes bored by American Airlines’ Boeing 767 that crashed between the 93 and 99 floors on the North face of the 110- story building. Each of the North Tower floors were roughly an acre. The top 20 floors engulfed in flames, he was staring at a 20- acre fire raging 90 stories above. He thought in his head that, This is the most unbelievable sight I’ve ever seen. Meldrum parked the fire truck on the West Street in front of the

My topic choice for the final essay will be Football Safety Equipment. I decided to write about this topic because I am an athlete and I have played football since I was six years old. When I transfer to a four year college, I plan to play on the collegiate level. As I grew, my father would purchase extra protection in addition to purchasing my own specialized helmet for football. My father did this because he believed Parks and Recreation did not properly maintain their equipment. Also, over the last couple of years there has been quite a few players from little league to the professional league who have suffered concussions. As a result, some medical professionals believe these concussions are linked to CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy).

The cause of this disaster was racism towards Jewish people. Elie Wiesel’s father said, “Humanity? Humanity is not concerned with us. Todas anything is allowed. Anything is possible even those crematories”(33). A lot of people knew what was

From the street there were people screaming and running it was mass chaos. At this time you could see the media and firefighters everywhere. I got the hell out of there went home hugged my wife. I realized God had spared me that day. A lot of my friends and coworkers died that day. I’m truly sorry, sometimes I feel guilty that I didn’t do my part to help but I was afraid for my life. A couple of my friends that made it from a bit higher up said it sounded like a bunch of explosions. I remember thinking after hearing from them and seeing the video footage what the heck happened? In my opinion it felt like a bomb (Jones).

Some disasters are so impactful, that they forever change the course of history. On March 25, 1911, one such event took place. The infamous Triangle Shirtwaist Fire occurred that day, and left one hundred and forty-six people dead in its wake. While many at the time thought the story would soon pass, and with it all the potential bad publicity, the story of the fire spread quickly, and outraged many people. As a result, the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire ended up changing many

The triangle Shirtwaist fire was a very sad event, but it helped the world in many ways. Even though many girls died in this fire, but this tragedy had a silver lining. The fire was yes very sad but this caused a law to be formed, this was called the workers compensation law. This caused factories or working spaces to have better safety rules.These girls may have died a gory and very depressing deaths but as it is said “Everything happens for a reason” and it may be horrid but out of it came a great law to protect all

On the afternoon of March 25, 1911, a fire broke out in the 10-floor Asch Building, a block east of Manhattan's Washington Square. This is where 500 mostly young immigrant girls were producing shirts for the Triangle Shirtwaist Company. Within minutes, it spread to consume the building's upper three stories. Firemen at the scene were unable to rescue those trapped inside: their ladders weren't tall enough. Exits were locked, and the narrow fire escapes were inadequate. Panicked, many jumped from the windows to their deaths. People on the street watched in horror. The flames were under control in less than a half hour, but 146 people perished, 123 of them women. It was the worst disaster in the city's history.

The Triangle Shirtwaist Fire not only affected the city of New York, but also the rest of the country. It forever changed the way our country would look at safety regulations in factories and buildings. The fire proved to America what can and will happen if we over-look safety regulations and over-crowd buildings. Unfortunately, 146 lives are taken before we fully understand this concept.

There is some dispute to the cause of the fire, but most believe it was set by three inmates who intended to cause a distraction during dinner time, so as to make an escape in the commotion. Instead, they mistimed the ignition device which didn’t ignite until they were all locked up for the night (Latta). This idea was later cemented as the cause when two of the three men hung themselves from grief. There are still some, however, that believe the fire was a tragic accident and the prison officials used the three inmates as an excuse to avoid blame

No one ever thought this event could happen; moreover, it serves to show that history may repeat itself and we need listen to the survivors’ stories. This event lies in history, and the United States helped to end the tragic and deadly incident. I am interested in learning more information dealing with this topic; furthermore, I will be learning about it in Modern American class later this

The greatest lesson learned from this tragedy was the need for planned fire drills and accessible fire escapes. If the employers would have made it mandatory that all employees become familiar with the buildings layout, practice fire drills and know their closest fire escape, it would have aided the employees in the hour of despair. The biggest cause for death in this fire was a result of poor pre-fire planning. The building may be fire proof, but the people and contents inside are not.

There is no question that everything people do in their lives involves physics. This is true from the way we communicate to the way that we fight wars. In some cases the influence of the laws of physics on our world are extremely apparent, such as in sports. Basketball, hockey, baseball and even cricket involve physics. From the most basic motions players perform in the game, to different plays designed by coaches, physics touches it all. These appearances of physics in the games that we play are sometimes so subtle we don’t even notice them. In other cases however, the impact of physics can be heard across the stadium as Jerome “The Bus” Bettis barrels his way into the endzone. The influences of physics on
