A fire at a bar in northern Bangkok was marked first by thick smoke billowing out of the front entrance around midnight, according to the supplied reporting. Experts cited in that reporting said the blaze involved highly combustible materials used to decorate the stage and likely for better acoustics, which ignited almost instantly and produced extreme heat, smoke and deadly toxins.[1][2]
