A pair of ladies who had been stealing bricks from a building were mortally surprised when the building fell on top of them, killing them and crushing a further 13 as it toppled into a neighbouring restaurant.
The thieves, apparently a group of five farmers who had migrated into the city of Liuzhou in China’s southern Guangxi province, had turned to stealing bricks from a derelict building nearby, digging into its walls to extract the bricks for sale.
However, it appears that they stole one too many bricks, for the entire building suddenly collapsed, toppling onto a neighbouring restaurant and crushing 13 of its patrons horribly, though they escaped death.
The brick thieves were not so lucky – firemen picking through the rubble discovered the crushed remains of two women in what was once the building. What happened to the rest of the group is not clear.
Via Heaven.
You may recall the tale of a Chinese bus company replacing its emergency glass breaking hammers with bricks to discourage theft – this would appear to be a futile expedient…

EPIC FAIL
LOL!! Uno Stacko!!!!!!!!!!
so that's where they get the bricks to use on the buses from
I'm sorry, but you reap what you sow.
So thats where all the busses were getting their bricks from :)
No, they're not thieves, they are from the bus company that uses bricks as emergency exit bashers.

We got Jenga in the city. Played it with some Chinese in a bar one night, at an after hours party from my wifes former company.
I saw a lot of racist comments for the Chinese.
Here's my reply to all those coments
Fuck you.
They had a thread in the forums why some people hate Sankaku Complex. This would be one of many reasons; the rampant racism.
where the hell have you been living under?
A fkn rock? its the internet... if want pancakes and rainbow go to mybuddy.com or something. Real internet is real. Ergo, its real racist.
might be of use for the future :

haha, somebody never played jenga as a child :p
I don't think Jenga was really all that popular in rural China... Although, they may have made the Jenga pieces in a factory but not know what Westerners would do with a bunch of rectangular wooden pegs.
today's lesson:
this needs to happen a few hundred million more times in China.
Chinese are illiterate, thieving greedy scum who don't value anyone or anything except themselves. What the Germans tried to do to Jews and others in Europe wasn't deserved, but it's what should have been done to the Chinese. Now they've got 60 more years of institutionalized ignorance and arrogance under their belts.
Poisoned baby food, poisoned pet food, defective and dangerous goods.. their greed and stupidity combined with our gullibility will get us killed.
"Chinese are illiterate"
Today's Lesson:
- The Japanese invented kanji, but the Chinese stole it and renamed it as hanzi.
All of those written in today's history textbooks are plain lies. Only Dai Nippon holds the truth and we must believe it!!
Are you being sarcastic?
If you're not, then fuck you
Fuck you
I can be certain you're some dumbass westerner who doesn't understand anything about Asia who sits at home in luxury masturbating all day

looks like the emergency bricks on those buses arent safe either =3
Well, looks like i shat the entire brick building this time
America has gathered most of the world's prosperity.
It is not "bricks selling well", but "people desperate to get some money even it is no more than some pennies".
great idea.. steal bricks from a building in china.. knowing how they build structures.. XD
There seems to be a shortage of engineers in China.
Alchemy: Bricks can be transmutated into a money, but therefore, it needs something of an equavalent matter to be exchanged.
...Their lives! (Women Thieves)
Ironic on so many levels...
And the Brick award goes to...
They shat bricks indeed.
chinese chinese and more chinese, and too russian ¬¬
Do not forget that we are your BOSS! your motherfucker JAP!
"Oh she's a brick... house"
Europe(mother of all colonization)>America, Australia, New Zealand(All colonies of Europe! ppl today call themselves americans but in truth they are europeans that stayed there,the real americans would be the natives)> Japan (one and only 1st world asian country cuz they adopted to the west)> South Korea> China
Just because they adopted to the west doesn't mean they're the best. Not everything about the west is something to be proud of.
[btw i'm not saying that China is better than Japan and S. Korea, just trying to tell you what i just said]
crime fighting at its best!
Wow, talk about a fitting end.
aw...
1 too many is good enough to kill you. That applies to anything really....
Bricks were shat
again
who would want to buy bricks?
Just think about that for a moment. I'm sure the answer will come to you sooner or later.
It's china they'll sell anything to you ANYTHING
maybe someone who would want to get rid of brick thieves? knowing that they have little brain to think of the consequences
Removing bricks from a BRICK building to make easy money... without thinking of the possibility of suddden collaspe. -.-
.... *face palms*
Ugh, money is truly the root of all EviL and idiotic decisions.
At least the other 13 survived.
Hmmm ,now I wonder how much a brick costs in China?
JENGA!
I kenw tetris esistet in real live, LOL
Well, not all of us are born in a developed country, and having our iphone, plamsa TV, PS3, or whatever tech gadgets we have. Some people actually need to earn a living by doing things we would deem stupid or illogical. It's easier to just laugh at the outcome than to understand why are they desperate enough to do things like that...
Actually the ladies worked for the bus company
Lol, who said noone steals bricks? People steal ANYTHING!
