Nah
Being elderly should not be an excuse for avoiding jail time
I dont know the details, but I hope he at least had his ability to work as an architect revoked. If you want to claim advanced age as the issue, you should have to stick to that and be assumed that you can’t continue due to your advnced age
@@Eradikateu
No, it is said at the end of the video that he continued to work as an architect.
Tell that to Robert Hur.
It depends on the severity of the crime. ie. the Nuremburg trials showed 90+ year old SS officers put to jail.
he wasn't even elderly. it was corruption.
So he wasn't charged because he was in his 60's? HIS SIXTIES??? LIKE THAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A SENILE AGE??????
That was the average life expectancy in Moscow at the time. I'm actually surprised he didn't accidentally drown in his bathtub shortly after.

@@MrWolfSnack Whoa whoa whoa! Nobody has a toaster in their bathroom anymore. We use blow dryers.
More likely he had ties with people in high places._

99.9 % of these types of disasters happen because of the greed of someone in charge. Saving a dollar at the expensive of the lives of others. It's sad.
Money talks
And the safer reality is that 9 out of 10 times, these companies and individuals are never charged despite the evidence...smh
Greed. Don’t you just love it.
Capitalism!
@@psychokinrazalon communism!
honestly it's pretty fishy that the architect was made the fall guy. Meanwhile the mayor gets to continue making billions with his wife who was also responsible.
I’m an architecture student. Architects are responsible for design flaws, but structural engineers are responsible for structural flaws. It is mostly common for architecture firms to have a structural engineer to either plan the structure supporting systems or approve the architect’s calculations for structural supports. However some buildings have collapsed because of the construction managers who decide to cut corners and ignore the architect’s/engineer’s instructions.
I studied a case about a mid-rise apartment with a row of stacked balconies. The stacked balconies collapsed on each other and had a domino effect. After investigations, it was found that the construction crew decided to modify the supporting system that was designed by the structural engineer in order to cut cost and pocket more money. Therefore the engineer and architect were not at fault, their designs would have prevented the collapse.
talk about a conflict of interest.
The mayor have changed a few times tho?
The construction started in 2000 when mayor was popov, than, in 2001 mayor was Lujkov for like 10 years, now mayor is sobyanin. Everyone likes him, Moscow did became better

What is the first sentence
... I cant fathom using non-reinforced concrete for a support column...
My mouth literally dropped open when that was said
Its strange too because what I can tell from the construction footage, plenty of rebar was used in the structure. Why skimp out on the main load bearing support of the super structure like that? How much money could have been saved from that move really?
@juuiko ok that makes far more "sense" lol. Still insane tho. Not wanting to redo calculations is the same thing that failed the suspended walkway in the Hyatt Regency. Glad it's such a rare problem.
If I recall correctly, the Hyatt Regency failure was due to revisions performed by the contractor on the shop drawings that weren't addressed or properly recognized during review.
@IanSlatas yes they revised the plans (changed the single rod design to two rods) and then didn't redo the calculations based on the different physics. And then the lead engineer approved the design anyway.
To my children. Don't cut corners. It might seem harmless, but down the road, it usually causes more harm than good.
As long as you don't get caught or have powerful friends. Hard work and all that shyt is a fairy tail JS
As true as your statement is, I'm afraid their willful ignorance makes it look like you're merely talking to a brick wall. Simply telling them isn't enough anymore.
Of course (he said while quickly hiding his boatload of money)
Ahhh yes, as Dave Thomas would say. At Wendy's we have square patties because we don't cut corners. Also my name is Tyler too.
Truly hope your children get to stumble upon this comment.
I never visit swimming pools, but being trapped underwater by a collapsed roof is a new fear unlocked.
wait until you hear about the hobby called cave diving
Makes me wonder if anyone under the water came up for air just to be trapped by a concrete block and no idea why it was there. Freaky.
I swear it is
The *glass* dawg... the glass...
Not even just that the people that survived the ceiling but were stuck also probably were freezing outside as well. A literally nightmare scenario
corners being cut to save money is never a surprise in these incidents. I guess if one thing is a cultural commonality across the world is there will always be someone willing to compromise safety for some extra numbers on their bank account.
That guy who died on that free fall type ride in Orlando was caused by a park worker being in a hurry and taking a shortcut on checking the safety bar across the guy's abdominal area. He was a big dude and really too large for the seat, they should've asked him to not ride if the safety bar wouldn't close properly over the guy's stomach. My ex husband was overweight and he didn't ride a lot of things at Disney World because he couldn't get properly in the seat.
Might I interest you in the story of a small aircraft manufacturer called Boeing who didn't want to recertify their 737-MAX8 planes so they cut corners by inventing a system called MCAS without telling authorities or pilots about it? 😂
@@Blex_040 do even get me started on boeing
It's absurd that nobody was really held responsible for this.
Glad I live in the west where accountability still exists.
This will always exist, but it is made worse by broken cultures. Look at china
The next question would be, why the architect had to decide, which typ of concrete is getting used, because this should always be decided by the engineer
Bingo
Because architects do whatever they want. Architects design buildings based off how they look rather than how they can support them. At my university architects don’t even have a class on the science behind supporting building. At the end of the day the architect is the one with the final say most of the time because it’s “their building”. Accidents like this would happen a lot less if every decision had to be checked with an engineer.
@@ztonner5166Nope. Architects do what the client wants. If the client wants to sacrifice structural stability for the sake of profit then they will. Also the choice of structural material is usually evaluated by the engineers, but the blame will always lie with the architect since they have to oversee the entire project. The architect’s job is to reconcile the (usually nonsensical) needs of the client with what the engineers can feasibly accomplish. They’re not autocrats of the design process. You’ll start to understand this when you go into practice.
It's kind of odd really. It sounded like the architect had designed the building with the correct materials and I doubt he was the one who made the decision to use the wrong materials. They made him the fallguy instead of looking at the structual engineers etc who okayed this well knowing that this was not okay.
Real Civil Engineer moment
Since the roof collapsed right above the children section there were children trapped under it's wreckage. There was an 8 year old girl Sasha that got trapped with a 3 year old girl Masha she didn't knew. Masha didn't know how to swim, so Sasha, who had a broked arm at this point, picked her up and was holding for 1,5 hour until the rescuers found them. Sasha was told to dive under the concrete bloke wich she could do somewhat easy, but she needed to hold the other girls' hand or Masha would get stuck alone in the dark. Thankfully both girls were fine as were they parents.
I knew this story since I was very little and it always amazed me. My family lived right behind this park, you can actually see our house in the background on these videos. And we visited this park from time to time, I was about 2-3 years old than. For many years there was only the memorial but at 2013 a new park opened. It is somewhat creepy and it's not crazy popular.
Another thing to be noted, two years later fallen dawn the roof of another building (a big market) designed by the very same architect.
I felt like it was weird that they would rebuild on the same site. I imagine it feels creepy there knowing the tragedy that came before.
Do you still live in Russia.
My grandfather came from Russia to usa in 1929. RIP
Very sad tragedy.
I feel for the parents who lost their children. They took them for a day of fun and lost them. How awful.
Unimaginable
It's _ALWAYS_ the greedy money hoarders who treat the lives of others as nothing of significant of value! Never fails!!!
Yeah gross
Like Fr a place like that would make their money back anyway, why cut costs?
Can't even describe strong enough how pathetically and dangerously inconsiderate it is. Why? What makes money worth so much more than the lives who help you make it?
To some, when compared to others tragedies of this scale, 28 lives lost might seem like a small figure. But any number above 0 is not a small figure; every life is precious, no matter how small or old. Waterparks should be safe (I know they're historically not) and I honestly didn't think that an indoor one would be at risk for something like this. Seems no one is safe from shoddy designs and the hubris of men.

Wow, they seriously just dropped the whole case simply because he was 68, as if seniors are entitled to do literally anything without any consequences whatsoever. The corruption in this case is so ridiculously obvious and over-the-top, it seems like it must be a joke. You couldn't even write that into a movie script without critics panning it for being too damn absurd.
If you can still become president in your 80s we should still hold people accountable in their 60s! oh wait, they get away with their crimes too. Lol
We literally live in a world where lives are dispensable if you are rich enough, and you are definitely rich enough if you cut corners on safety to have the highest profit margins.
It's not really "rich" people. Just because you have money does not mean you are "in the elite club". To the elite, even some rich folks are "not people".
@@locklear308 that is so broad it hurts to read, there's billions of people and probably thousands of elite clubs and each has their own things going on, at the end of the day if you are in charge of a pharmaceutical company that kills thousands and makes billions in profits than you can afford to pay off the families of the deceased and continue your operations.
@@badgamedevreacts3855 "elite" is not the same as the casual term elite.

The architect was responsble for another buildng that also collapsed..
I bet he bribed his way out of the trail.
@@Die-Angst trial
That would be the Basmanny Market, which also had a domed roof. Built in 1974 and collapsed in 2006, killing 65. /watch?v=l1Nzn6OAXgU
Oh, so that was the pic at the end of the video. I wonder why this channel didn't even mention this? I mean, this collaps was even worse than the waterpark.
Another park was built on the same site 🤦♂
Not only an insult to the memory of those who lost their lives, but also a bad omen too.
That explains perfectly why they chose not to go with Donald Trump's vision to rebuild the Twin Towers in the aftermath of 9/11. It would have been an insult to the families of the 3,000 lives lost that day and an ill omen to the possibility - no matter how slim - of another 9/11-style attack happening again in exactly the same way as before. Even if they had gone with a modernized approach by using a glass curtain wall on the outside of the buildings to make the buildings look and feel more modern, it still would have been in very poor taste. The way they ended up redeveloping the World Trade Center site ended up being the most tasteful way they could have done it. Personally, I would have likely had the fountains as central pools completely filled with water and having a jet of water spouting from each of the names of the people killed, along with a school of about 1,500 fish in each pool. Even bringing back the music that used to play would likely have been in poor taste.
What else are you supposed to do with it? lmao

@@locklear308I mean, the tasteful and respectful thing to do would be maybe a memorial site. just a thought 🙄

There was an explosion and fire in amusement park Liseberg in Gothenburg Sweden a few weeks ago. I think the reason remains unclear. One person died. Maybe this case could become a video?
Would love that but I suppose such an investigation would take at least 2 years.
The video will be spectacular, though. Plus we get to have the excuse of “It was just a cigarette” if it’s the fault of an occupant.

How it burned so fast is pretty strange.
$33 may not sound like a lot to Americans but have to remember most Russians today only make $120 - $200 USD per month (especially in the early 2000's), unless you are in IT/networking. So it's a luxury trip many can not afford.
I'm an American mother in a family of six. I don't know the last time my entire family was able to go out to see a movie together. $33 per person times six people is beyond my budget. So I can understand that for many, this would have been a special thing to save up for.

Somehow this reminds me of the ice rink disaster in Southern Germany in January 2006. The only difference was that the roof was made of massive wooden beams (and that the reasons for the collapse were that they used the wrong glue for the beams which was water soluble and a heavy load of snow on the roof which led to the beams to fail).
And the whole lot came crashing down like a abandoned mine roof

Nodar Kancheli (21 April 1938 - 26 June 2015) was a Russian architect who designed a number of facilities including the Transvaal Park water park in Yasenevo and Basmanny Market. These two structures collapsed, killing a total of at least 89 people.
Damn him.
Of course the architect and park managers wanted to blame anything or anyone else instead of taking responsibility for their terrible planning and negligence. Gotta love them trying to pass the buck. The part about the architect getting off the hook because of his age is absolutely infuriating! Age should have no part in serving justice to someone who was not only a poor planner and cost cutter (and thereby a murderer), but also a liar who immediately made up a story about terrorism. Those poor families!
finally covering this disaster!
Unfortunately, this kind of corruption is the norm in Russia. They had a fire in a shopping mall in Siberia that killed over 30 people in 2018. It turned out the fire alarm system had been turned off due to multiple false alarms and the local fire marshal had been bribed by the mall owners.
So many 'experts' in the comments.. just watch some other videos on this channel, like the MGM Vegas hotel fire, and you will discover that greed and corruption are not exclusively Russian issues.
@@williet.3058 Sure there's corruption everywhere but it's on another level in Russia. It's terrible at every level of power and they barely even try to hide it. Some estimates say as much as 25% of Russia's entire GDP is lost to corruption and it's made some public services basically useless, you don't see that in the west.
Corruption is a problem that exists in all countries, there are many cases of even worse corruption in the USA, one of the best examples being the miami condo collapse. Corruption is a problem with capitalism itself which forces companies to be as greedy as possible
So sad :( RIP to the victims.
I love this kind of content. It’s horror and tragedy on the realest level which Hollywood can’t provide in a typical movie. I enjoy listening to these videos while at work.

Love the bullcrap that people come up with stating it will stand for 100 years, or cutting corners because of money and it is ridiculous
Yeah. The Funny mustache man also said something very similar, also the people in charge of building road in my neighbourhood, and the contractor for the apartment next door, and the guy who try to sell used house. Come to think of it isn't stand for 100 years meant more and more upkeep in maintenence?
First you forgo aluminum girders for concrete. Then you don't even use reinforced concrete!
5 fahrenheit is -15 celsius, btw.
Disregarding the horror, but going from a balmy (what i can assume 25 celsius (77 fahrenheit) to minus 15 celsius (5 fahrenheit) is shocking in it's own way. No pun intended.
You would be too amped on adrenaline and survival to feel it.
The video has a graphic conversion on screen when he says this.
"When children were slaughtered in a place that they should've built safe! That's enough to make your skin crawl. If only I had skin...."
That quote resonates through my head when I watched the video. Corruption, mismanagement, rushed construction, disorganisation amongst workers, rampant structural violations, and design weaknesses really had been the focal point to disaster killing quite a lot of people and children.
Later on they blamed old age as a cause of the failure. If it was old age why didn't they retire? Because they rather make more money and speed up the construction.
Transvaal used to be a province in South Africa, when we still had a constant supply of electricity.... and water.... and very few potholes, and our railway system worked properly, as well as our airlines. Now I was informed that Russia had a Transvaal Park... which failed.
I thought the Transvaal Waterpark would be located in South Africa. I lived in the Transvaal. The rescue teams seemed very efficient.

It was replaced by the Moreon Water Park. It seems to be more traditionally designed. Based on the limited pictures of the outside I can see.

I agree! I’m going with my daughters next month for our birthdays and this video makes me nervous.
Even me, who knows nothing about architecture, can say that changing the integral material of support beams mid construction sounds like a terrible terrible idea….. AND THEY DIDN’T EVEN USE RE-INFORCED CONCRETE ?!
To me that sounds very very bad…. Their greed cost the life of so many and destroyed families, and they don’t even get punished appropriately.
Common scenario sadly
Great video and narrator! Thank you.
Imagine not using reinforced concrete. It’s pretty much standard for all buildings at this point. Concrete and steel rebar have a perfect relationship to work together. Steel rebar is important as it prevents the concrete from bowing and bending by acting in tension while the concrete acts in compression from the forces of weight around it
Of course they had rebar. No way to get that by the inspectors, lol.
I think they mean fiber reinforced concrete?
@@FloridaMugwump Ohhhh you know that would make much more sense
@@DerKopfkissenmannIt was reinforced, but not stressed.
@@nanonymous9139That's what I think the video meant to say as well, that they chose reinforced concrete instead of pre-stressed or post-tension concrete.

Great response from the rescue teams!
As long as monetary profit is the biggest driving force behind everything we do/build things like this are just gonna keep happening.
Cutting corners to save money/mske profit is usually the biggest reason behind these tragedies, things need to change fast, before the whole world goes to the gutter.
Yet another great explanation of a tragic situation :-( May they continue to rest in peace
As someone who is really into the amusement industry, none of these videos bring tears to my eyes like ones involving the industry. I work at an indoor waterpark, so does my boyfriend. These tragedies hit so hard because of all these videos, the ones involving my beloved industry are the ones I see myself in the shoes of the victims the easiest.
Apparently the lessons of Kansas City’s Crown Center skywalk collapse in 1981, killing 114, didn’t penetrate the Russian design and engineering. As always in this type of event, somewhere costs are cut to line someone’s pockets. Greed is the same on both sides of the Pacific Ocean.
Those are two completely different designs...nothing alike at all
I was blown away, when you mentioned they did not use reinforced concrete! I thought it was strange that the concrete had failed...then it made sense! Interesting details for such a tragedy! Thanks! I will subscribe too!
Unstressed does not necessarily mean unreinforced. It just means that they did not use pre-stressed or post-stressed members
The architect insists it wasn't a design flaw. Surprising.
We've had disasters here also - caused by the architect's approved design being changed by the development and/or construction company. Always catastrophic.

Why put all the blame to the architect? I think its the structural engineer's duty to make sure the structure is safe
Is there such a distinction in Russia?
The architect hires the engineer and checks his work. The architect specified the wrong concrete after the engineer had signed off, anyway.
It's Russia, not the US, and it was ultimately him who made that decision.

Pretty sure "unstressed" and "reinforced" concrete terms are incorrectly used. (as well as the drawing shown around 11:35)

There would never be un-reinforced concrete in a roof. And footage clearly shows plenty of reinforcing bar in the aftermath.
Thank you.
Thanks for converting the freedom units into metric. It is much obliged.
How eerie to have an even bigger water park in the same exact place as the one that caused such a horrible tragedy … almost a way to say “let’s brush this under the rug and put it in the past by putting an even bigger money maker in its place to help move on.”
Even shittier when you learn the majority of the victims and their loved ones didn’t even get formal compensation for their trauma and injuries (or death) endured by the negligence of another - like the victims are the ones to somehow blame while no one making the real decisions was ever actually punished for their lousiness.
It’s almost unbelievable that everyone got off without being held accountable. But it’s also Russia where this was clearly all political or they would’ve at least kept the architect from designing more buildings.

Gee, maybe integrity DOES matter!
This was obviously built using reinforced concrete. You can see the twisted and snapped reinforcing in all of the photos. I believe the narrator meant to say that they didn't use post-tensioned concrete instead of transitional reinforced concrete. This structure could have easily been designed to work simply with reinforced concrete, but post-tensioning allows you to take more advantage of the compressive strength while holding the concrete in compression under larger loads that would otherwise crack in tension. Post-tensioning allows for a more efficient design, but is not a requirement for a structure like this. This structure simply wasn't designed or connected properly. There are plenty of massive traditionally reinforced concrete structures out there with no post tensioning that are not in danger of collapse.
