London Fire Brigade have released a report on the collapsed balcony in Cadogan Square in Knightsbridge that killed two workmen.
They say that as well as treating the two men who died and six who were injured, the accident was so serious that they had to treat a number of witnesses who had gone into shock.
When we arrived we made the scene safe, securing parts of the iron balcony that had broken away in the fall.
Crews assisted London Ambulance Service to provide first aid to those injured in the fall as well as to a number of onlookers who were suffering from shock.
The unlicensed events unfolded on Saturday night at Clapham Common and Tooting Bec Common.
