Over 500 Gay Pride youths engulfed in flames in Taiwan as Biblical Scale Firestorm hits gay celebration

The weekend catastrophe involved the spontaneous ignition of a multi-colored special effect which was launched into the air by event organizers using air cannons.

The "special effect" turned out to be highly explosive particulate corn flour, the same substance frequently responsible for grain silo explosions in the grain belts of the world. The airborne corn flour ignited and burst into flames, raining down fire upon the heads of nearly 500 youth who were attending the event.

Event powder was provided by the Color Play Creative Company. A previous incident happened in an event in September 2013 -- in the public announcement of the use of such powder; Mr. Lu stated the possibility of explosion and described the conditions that need to be reached for an explosion to occur. He promised the public that all safety measures had been observed, and that the possibility of an explosion was extremely low.
