That stoning area saw stampede deaths almost every year until the Saudis improved the area. From what I understand many pilgrims think you need to do the stoning at at a certain time so they all rush to get there.

The stoning area? LOLZLOLZLOLZ - Is that like Frontierland or Tomorrowland at Disney? How awesome. Such a tolerant and peaceful gutter "religious" philosophy - straight outta the 11th Century! I love it!!

It is worse than Disneyland in the sense that you have over a million people trying to do the same rituals at the same time. Imagine that you do to Disneyland and there is a specific sequence of how you go from one area to the other.
