INDIANAPOLIS — The wind gust that toppled a stage at the Indiana State Fair Saturday night, killing five and injuring dozens of fans waiting for the country band Sugarland to perform, was a "fluke" that no one could have anticipated, the governor and others said Sunday.

@ Ginger: Yeah, I would have thought more people had died after watching that video, but I'm glad that is not the case...such tragedy.

IKt is so sad that the media play up the "Blame" card. Reading the item, it appears that the organisers and the constructors did everything they could to establish the possibility of something like this happening. In law, this gets described as, "An act of God" because nobody could have foreseen it happening. It does not mean that God toppled the stage, but that only God could have foreseen it happening - humans did not have the power to do this.
