30 thousand people lined up for up to two days for a TV game game show taping at a stadium in an outer suburb of Manila.

They were there to see a popular show called Wowowee.

74 people are dead, about 500 are wounded.
Witnesses say a people were crushed at steel gates in the stadium and trampled to death and that a railing may have given way.

Wowowee had planned to raffle the equivalent of $439.00/Cdn.
