Gilbert Estrada, 51, succumbed to his injuries at 10:30 a.m. the following morning at Cedars Sinai Medical Center, according to his brother, Pablo Estrada. He was with his girlfriend at the event and was dressed as an army sniper. "When it first happened, people thought it was part of the show," Pablo Estrada told LAist. "When people realized what was going on, they started putting out the flames and emergency personnel took him to the hospital." As of right now, the cause of the fire is unknown. A video on YouTube showed the grim scene, and party-goers around Estrada are heard laughing and heckling him as he lay motionless on the ground. Estrada described his brother as an outgoing person who had attended the Carnaval every Halloween for several years. The family has set up a GoFundMe account to raise money for Gilbert Estrada's funeral costs. Very sad that when someone is on fire the first thing people do is is scream and laugh and film it. Shameful world we live in.. |

Humanity is so desensitized all most people could think to do was record a man on fire like it was for their amusement. It took a few seconds for people to run and help him, everyone else was just recording and cheering. ..."The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts.
