💨 Abstract

At least five people died from suspected heat stroke at a crowded Indian Air Force show in Chennai, India, attended by approximately 1.5 million people. The event, held on a hot day, was criticized for lacking water supplies and proper crowd management, leading to fainting and dehydration. The state government provided medical teams, security, temporary toilets, and drinking water, but more attention is promised for future large-scale events.
