Journalist He Xiaoxin of The Beijing News (新京报) traveled to report from the scene of the massive explosion in a chemical warehouse at the Tianjin port, in which 104 people have been reported killed so far. Dramatic photos and videos of the explosion traveled quickly around the world via the Internet. But in this photo essay, He provides an up-close, personal look at the devastation. Propaganda officials have since banned media from reporting on the explosion or posting stories that did not originate from Xinhua:

What is often unreported from that day is each tower had about 40,000 people working in them, or is that the figure for both, I forget.

So if it’s the lower number that leaves about 37,000 saved, the higher figure 77,000

Granted the men didn’t get that many to leave, but their presence caused many to escape.

I remember when the book came out, we all had to read it.
