When I was a kid, maybe around 8 or 9, I scored a crucial goal in a football tournament and my team mates all jumped and piled up on top of me when celebrating. I was at the very bottom and wasn't able to move, shout for help or breathe in. It was one of the worst things I ever experienced, it may sound crazy but I genuinely felt I was going to die.
I've had a phobia of being crushed by people ever since and tend to avoid crowdy places.
This news made me feel genuinely sick, that's the stuff of nightmares...
