They all fall down by Daizha Lankford

This Wednesday an eight story building collapsed right outside of Bangladesh, killing at least 80 people and injuring thousands. Six hundred people were taken to the hospital in Savar and Dhaka near where the building collapsed. This commercial building housed three garment units and over 300 shops. Some videos showed people pleading to be rescued like a women called Sakhina said "Please retrieve us... save my life." A
doctor at the hospital even said some of the people were found without arms and legs. This has not been the first time a building has collapsed, in 2005 a major building collapsed where more than 70 people were killed in a garment factory. There have been many other incidents with buildings killing people near Bangladesh.
