Not on the live link I'm watching. Some sources are saying a balloon popped and many got trampled when people panicked.

I saw that too.  Could it be escape related though?  People in shorts doing whatever they could to get out?  Or something going off low to the ground?

Yeah this is what makes these things confusing. There are pictures coming out but the stories don't all seem to be the same other than something went bang.

That's how this works.  Initial reports are often terribly inaccurate.  Happens every time something big goes down.  Sometimes people use those early reports as foundation for conspiracy theory.

No specific causes yet. Some are saying  large concert balloons filled with gas contributed, although unconfirmed.

Didn't someone twitter they heard an explosion as the balloons dropped. UK just made mention injuries may be from stampede because balloons popped I believe these concert goers have been to these events before and had balloons drop before and would not panick from that.  Just my 2 cents worth.  Liberal UK

Go back and look at the twitter post at the bottom of page 2. It sounded like a big explosion and produced quite a flash.

I've only seen two pictures and they were both knee injuries.

If it were an explosion wouldn't they have said something by now? I saw a few pictures of people holding large balloons, maybe a few people popped them?

Just made mention of possibly 2 explosions on FOX

FOX had all but said it was an attack. But it's still unconfirmed at this point. But explosion sound was heard outside of area. To me the number of fatalities will dictate the incident

Another witness Jenny Brewster told MailOnline: 'We were exiting the building when it happened. We'd headed towards the main doors as Ariana was performing the last song because we wanted to beat the crowds, but – as we made our way there - a wall of security men blocked it and told us to go the other way.

'Seconds later they shouted "RUN!" and the explosion happened right behind them. Hundreds of people were running and screaming. Those men saved our lives.'

I haven't seen any pictures of smoke.
Maybe just a panic, but I'm going with terrorism.

Simple, they may have found a suspicious bag or other object and upon some investigation found that it was a device.

Maybe they found a suspicious package and were waiting for the bomb squad or something?

Someone used the wrong tank to fill balloons and static set it off?

Doesn't oxyacetylene go with a huge bang?  Or hydrogen for that matter?

Every time there's a terrorist attack I put a flag filter on with the caption "I'M HELPING". Then next attack I just put another fliter over the previous one. I have so many now you cant even see the original picture.
