01:22and in fact it was really at the level of these five stairs that it was the worst because in

01:26fact in fact the first stairs are quite simple to walk on we say because they are large and

01:32then in fact after it was the little door that everyone pushed and so in fact we were

01:38all stuck and we were all stuck with each other there was one who burned and there was one who were

01:42dead next to us. I have a friend who is all the same, he didn't come out and he just stood

01:49and he held his croix in his hand and just the fire was esquivated, the fire was just not touched,

01:55the fire was just all around him but not on him and he survived, heureusement. He managed to

02:04leave and he had to leave and he had to leave to be able to be able to sleep. But if it's why

02:08now I'm here, I'm here, it's because I want to thank the Lord for me to have saved me and I

02:17just want to save my friends who are missing because it's horrible because it's

02:23me man, I don't want to lose other people because there I've already lost people and on

02:28I'm looking for one with Henri, I don't want to because I've already had so much fear,

02:32fear for me, fear for my friends, fear for everyone inside. I have

02:38friends at the hospital, I have friends everywhere. We all have parents, my children who are

02:44today are the most older, they have been at the same place for years and new year, so it would have been our

02:50children. So we are at the place of parents who have lost their children this night and it's just horrible.
