The Five Worst Christmases Ever
This came in at Number 5 on ZenMonkeys:
Christmas Eve midnight mass in Temoaya, Mexico in 1953 had just
finished. Three thousand worshippers were peacefully filing out when
someone tripped over the wrong wire. There was a bright blue flash, and
then total darkness. All sense of peace and goodwill toward men
vanished as the crowd transformed into a panic-stricken mob stampeding
from the sanctuary. By the time the lights came on a few minutes later,
23 people were dead and over 200 injured.
