I don’t understand why anyone would let some punk cock-bag put his hands on their girlfriend and then say the exit can’t be used…..in a life threatening situation. And it wasn’t just him - other people say they were told they couldn’t use the exit. Why would you accept that?? If fire and smoke are approaching then there’s no way I’d let him tell me I could use the exit and thankfully at least one dad pushed past him after being told not to use it. He got himself and his family out after basically telling Vieira to go eff himself.

I'm from Chattanooga so, I wanna say thank you & I'm so sorry for your loss!!! God Bless You🙏

Hi Jeff and Tina, Im in awe of both of you and the whole family. Jeff, youre a excellent communicator and I have so much respect for your ability to thrive in spite of such a difficult start in life. Its seems odd to say "you lucked out," but when it comes to parents, you landed with the right set. If you're a sample of your siblings, I get the feeling they are not too shabby at raising kids. I wish you both and your entire family all the best. Thank you for sharing your story. Ive been going through a rough patch, and Im very inspired by both of you. 🌻🕊️ P.S. Tina, the look on your face when Jeff mentioned "Legos" made me laugh. If you know, you know. Im so glad those days are behind me too.

This was a terrible horrific fire . Rob I am so sorry for your loss and the pain you had to endure because of this awful preventable tragedy at this Nightclub . God Bless You for your bravery 🕊️💐✝️🇺🇸🌸

Mr., sweet heart, she was the next matriarch but in the soul world before both your lives, she knew her fiancee - you - would one day have an extra special message to share with the world. Back then before the incident, could you perhaps envision Donna being an matriarchal angel? One who would agree to sacrifice her life so you could, in life, share this vital story?❤

The fire made me more aware of my surroundings at a show. Sir my heart goes out to you and those who survived and their families. Your words I am glad didn't fall on deaf ears! Thank you Sir!

I was there that night as a Detective assigned to the NYPD Arson and Explosion Squad. This was one of my first investigations involving the death of a Fure Fighter. I am still haunted by the memory of that night.

The pain in his eyes to this day crushes me. Donna was so beautiful and they had their whole lives together. The fact you are a firefighter saving lives is huge. Sending love and prayers.

The real lesson is the longer one follows some drughead pied piper, you will eventually have to pay their price of fire 🔥 and brimstone. JR/GW never even apologized for his wanton carelessness Thank you for what you do. There is no amount of money that can pay for a lost soul. May they never be forgotten.

I remember hearing about the Great White Club burning and people that died when this happened but there was no cellphone or smart TV, I did have a Laptop but didn't do much search, Now that is 20 years anniversary it popped out in my TV and I have been watching the videos and its the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. I see true crimes documentary but this one is awful and me liking Metal and Great White and seeing bands at clubs it really touches me. I remember seeing Great White only once in 1988 when they opened for Whitesnake.

Absolutely horrific, a brave man that somehow survived an event which killed most of the victims in 90 seconds.

Thanks for putting this together. Such a great story of overcoming adversity. It’s important that we don’t forget what happened. It could have been any of us who listened to bands like that in 2003. A building burned down across from where I lived once. Nobody died but that coulda been me living there. Eventually we moved into the replacement building and it had sprinklers and fireproof doors. And my first thought was why that can’t be the standard everywhere? Why is a safe building an anomaly? Getting those sprinkler laws passed was huge. So many greedy and negligent business owners out there. I know some. All they care about is money. Short term profit. They don’t have the ability to consider that one mishap could wipe out everything they have and do worse to their patrons and staff. Getting this passed was a great service.

2 days from their wedding 💔

The dad was in jail when this happened.

All of the piggy back rides in camp, to a grown man! Its an honor to know you my friend!

because people don't have critical thinking skills and are easily swayed.... Like MAGA....

You are a great man , Thanks for your inspiration to me from Thailand.

Rob you are so courageous. Thank you for becoming an advocate for fire safety. We must NEVER forget The Station disaster and the 100 innocent souls who perished. There is so much blame to go around. The club owners, the fire marshall, the tour manager and Jack Russell all had a part in the tragedy. It never should have happened and thanks to people like Rob Feeney hopefully it never will again.

I wish the video of his speech in TN was still available. I had the opportunity to watch it a few years ago and it was very powerful. He didn't just start with the analogy of 3 minutes, he actually paused at a couple of points during that first three minutes to explain what was happening in the Station at that same time frame. It was super effective.

Awesome testimony! Thank you, Justina!! ❤

Thank you, Justina. Praise God for your heart! Love you!

Heartbreaking and heartwarming, I think the reason that bad things happen to good people is because good people are the only ones who can handle it.

...and it repeats again as in Mexico, Thailand, Argentina... What a shame for the owners ! ☝️👎😠

I had never heard of this story until I came across it on RUclips. Blessings to the families of the victims and survivors 🙏🏾🕊

It was 2 decades ago but you can tell it still takes him back like it was yesterday God bless him

Pretty sure he knew he was crawling over people…

I guess all politicians are heartless cretins…

I thought it became a mandatory nationwide law after the Beverly Hills Supper Club as well as the MGM in Vegas

I‘m still deeply shocked and sad about what happened 20 years ago. I could easily have been one of the victims, as I love rock shows. Since 2003, I always check out emergency exits and have a plan, when I’m somewhere, even at work. Dear Rob, I‘m deeply sorry for your loss. I feel with everyone who lost loved ones in this awful fire. I hope, that every club owner will take responsibility and action, to prevent fires! My sincere condolences from Switzerland ⭐️🌈

You are so brave. I'm very sorry about Dominic. Thank you for telling your story and making a difference.

Thank you for sharing your experience RIP to your beloved Husband CAPTAIN JOHN DREANEN and FIREFIGHTER CHRIS SEIDENBERG, FIRE FIGHTER ,JIMMY YOUNG

That club was too small for pyrotechnics. And all that material used in the club was highly flammable as it was built in 1946, although renovated over the decades it was still made of wood. The exit routes for emergencies were totally useless. This is all public knowledge now. It should help preventing this from happening again. Rob is doing well all things considered.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I believe in fire sprinklers.

Yes all buildings should have fire sprinklers including houses. How wonderful that you are actively getting the info out about sprinklers and fire prevention!!

What a wonderful lady . She speaks well. So so sorry for your loss and sympathies for the others who went through these terrible things (fire, loss, injuries etc).

The Station Memorial is one of my favorite places to visit. The story touched me that morning and never left. I pray for everyone affected and lost in this horrible fire.

Were you at the service last Sunday Rob? It was appropriate and touching. - Supporting member of the public

Very moving!

Remember this! I was stuck at the Nashville greyhound bus station when the news broke.

I was born on February 12, 2003. This happened when I was 8 days old. It always stuck with me due to the sheer loss of life and the proximity to my date of birth. I was in North Carolina at that time, and of course I had no idea that we lost 100 innocent lives that day. Nobody in those families knew that eight days later their lives would change forever. For that reason I’ve studied it intensely. Being 20 years old now means it’s been 20 years since. RIP

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!

Sorry for your loss

It's mind boggling, incomprehensible, inconceivable, that anyone would even fathom or hesitate for one second on voting for safety over aesthetics. A fire in any form is the most terrifying thing anyone can go through. Those who survive bear not only physical scars but also bear damage on so many levels. When I was still living in Cuba, back in 1975, I lost 25 college classmates in a bus fire. I was supposed to go on that leisure trip. However, I was under the impression that we were all going to transported in a proper vehicle equipped with air conditioning and emergency exits, a normal bus. Instead they packed everyone like cattle in a poorly built Girón bus which were notorious for breaking down, no emergency exits, and with windows that could barely fit a small child through in case of an accident. I was extremely angry at the university officials and organizers of the trip. I even told my classmates to not board the bus and that we should just take public transportation to the beach destined to hold the event. Only 4 of us stayed behind and I actually decided not to go at all. On the return trip the bus was sideswiped by a military truck and fell into a deep ditch off the side of the road trapping everyone. A fire ensued and everyone perished. The horror didn't end there though. Amid the shock of losing so many colleagues, I was forced under threat of being expelled from the University to help with identifying the bodies. There was nothing identifiable, nothing. All were burnt beyond recognition. I walked away in a state of shock and went home. I also dropped out of my Alma Mater. 5 years later I left the country. Im 63 now, and to this day, I have nightmares about fires. I also become absolutely incensed when I see the complacency and disregard of the greedy practices of choosing profit over safety. The Station Nightclub fire was a disgrace and those responsible will forever have blood on their hands. My heart goes out to every victim and survivor. You're all in my heart and in my prayers.

Wow. He's a fireman now. Unreal. This guy is an inspiration.

Thank you for your testimony before city council. The degree to which money trumps life and safety in this country would shock more people into community activism if they knew about it.

He looks great. He’s such an inspiration

ROB: So sorry for your loss of such a beautiful woman... I can't even imagine what you have been going thru all this time... even if it was 20 yrs. ago. You were very fortunate to get out of there alive. I don't know if I could have handled losing my love all these years. You are an incredible and brave guy. I know it will probably never happen, but simply I would love to meet you, I'm not a weirdo, even if that means I'm not shy of saying I pray for these lost souls nearly every day. My heart aches for them. I live in MA and was there 2/20/23 to pay respects, I'm sorry for your loss Rob and I'm so sorry what you've been through. I have no words left now.

I fully realize there is lots of culpability, but ultimately it's the band's fault.

Remember John from Eng..281.....sweet man!
