When 300,000 People Share Six Toilets

Hiring "Karate Experts" for security is the most 70s shit ever

You know the food scarcity was BAD when hippies went and killed a cow 😂

they tried to recreate a Woodstock but they ended up becoming the original Fyre Fest.. 🤦‍♂

love how hippies are all peace and love the earth but then leave TONS and TONS of trash during these events lol

The guy who sued because his cows supposedly died from marijuana inhalation is the best part of this video

The smells of waste, being able to barely hear the music, a bunch of tweaking people. No thanks, I’m good. I’d rather buy the damn record.

Legend has it, someone is still waiting in line to take a crap.

hilarious how hippies say crap like "peace and love" and then descend into violence and anarchy when they don't get their way

the title alone gave me anxiety

This is my personal idea of hell. Lots of crowds, no privacy, and 6 damn bathrooms for 300k people. Absolutely 9th circle of hell.

"Young people nowadays have no decency" Meanwhile in the 70's

I kind of understand now why some people did not like hippies very much in the 1980s.

The epitome of "imagine the smell"

An unplanned festival in a city might be fine. City infrastructure can take a lot of the strain. But once you're in the middle of nowhere, you have to provide EVERYTHING.

I went to a free concert that was organized at the last minute back in November of 1991 in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. 300, 000+ people showed up in memorial of iconic Bay Area concert promoter, Bill Graham, nine days after he died tragically in a helicopter crash. The 'Indian Summer' weather could not have been better and multiple HUGE acts including the Grateful Dead, Robin Williams, and Journey performed. It was an all day event starting at 10:00 AM. Food was largely scarce save for one little neighborhood grocery store across the street that quickly sold out of EVERYTHING. However, event had PLENTY OF PORTA POTTIES and medical tents to service that enormous crowd. It was a GREAT event despite my having had no sleep the night before, and partying all day. Great memory to have in light of the tragic circumstances which inspired the concert.

I live like 30 minutes from where this took place and never heard of this till now. Indiana and Illinois TOTALLY buried this festival in hopes we would forget lol

Basically, never underestimate the stupidity of humans, or visitors will use 300 wooden toilets as firewood instead of as toilets, and choose to poop out in a field. I'm not saying the organisers wasn't to blame, they definitely deserve the biggest blame, but I don't get how the presumable stench from the poop field alone didn't make people go home. And how did some visitors react to finding out that there was no more food in some food trucks? They torched them, as if that would solve their food shortage. On top of that, some people took things in their own hands, and chose to illegally slaughter a nearby cow to get food, rather than realise that maybe it was time to go home. Madness.

I am impressed. Just two dead? ... despite 300.000 ppl... it could been endlessly worse.

All the guys who fought Iwo Jima or at Normandy probably couldn't believe this is what their kids got up to.

Can't say I feel sorry for the attendees. They ruined it for themselves by destroying 300 toilets, tweaking, looting, and stealing
