Graduation party almost ends in tragedy after the collapse of the floor in full dance

What should have been a moment of joy and merriment turned into a true nightmare when a group of students suffered a severe setback in the middle of the promotion party. The surface on which they celebrated the completion of their school years collapsed while they were in full ‘crazy hour’.

The events, which almost ended in tragedy, happened in Saposoa, San Martín region (Peru), to the students of the Antonio Raimondi Educational Institution.

According to a report from the local program ‘América Noticias’, the dance floor collapsed due to the precarious conditions in which the tabladillo (dance floor) was built. In the images you can see how a huge hole caused a large number of students to fall inside, in full dance, when they did what seemed to be the ‘little train’.

The young people were taken to the Saposoa health center, where their good health was confirmed despite the spectacular fall.
