Fitvip Supersonic January 1, 2015 Share January 1, 2015 Nanjing Road is so packed with pedestrians even on week days, not to mention big festive season like count down. The culprit who threw the fake money will have to live with the conscience that his action had killed so many innocent people!:( 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiadaw 6th Gear January 1, 2015 Share January 1, 2015 Thats why, in many big city, they control the numbers of people in the firework zone. I was in Berlin in 2011 new years eve, & area where celebration took place is barricaded, & control by police, You need a ticket to enter. I was also in public screening for the world cup final, & there, also you need ticket to enter the screen area. Its like 2€, but there are at least proper control & decent space.
