Thats the lesson of all this. All too often, peopel tend to act like sheep. its too bad there wasnt anyone in there who could have acted in a leadership role helping people use the other emergency exits.
The images of the people trapped at the front door is horrible.
I will be making it a point from now on to notice the exits wherever I go. That sucks for those people.
