If you are in a crowd, a first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and notice possible exits. No matter where you are, make sure you always know how to get out.The wet or uneven ground can cause you to fall.

Pay attention to the atmosphere of the crowd, so that you can feel the danger quickly. When in danger, a few seconds can make all the difference, giving you the possibility to escape.

If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd, do not fight against the pressure, do not stand still or sit down, because you could easily get trampled. Instead, move in the same direction of the crowd; find any space that may open up.Keep your hands up by your chest, like a boxer--it gives you movement and protects your chest.

If you fall, get up quickly. If you can't get up because you are injured, get someone to pull you back up. If you have kids, lift them up.

If you fall and cannot get up, keep moving by crawling in the same direction of the crowd, or if that is not possible, then cover your head with your arms and curl up into the fetal position (do not lay on your stomach or back, as this dangerously exposes your lungs).
