“Nothing in Russia works.”

It was a planned demolition and the stadium collapsed.

The plan worked.

It could have been worse.

In 27 AD, an apparently cheaply built wooden amphitheater constructed by an entrepreneur named Atilius collapsed in Fidenae, resulting in by far the worst stadium disaster in history. At least 20,000 were killed and many more injured out of the total audience of 50,000.
