    Pretty gross how people are using this to pump up their notoriety, from Beast here to the others saying they “knew” this would happen. Even if it were true, it’s not something you start bragging about. People died. Disgusting.

      @Ech ehhh, someone posting “that could have been me” on their personal twitter account isn’t really “pumping up their notoriety”, more like… a normal human reaction to learning you avoided death

      blame cnn for making a “news” story out of it

        That “someone” has 21 million followers and makes a living on notoriety.
