There Is ‘Pokemon GO’ Stampede When a ‘Wild Snorlax Appears!’

Ever since Pokemon GO was released, we somewhat expected that players are in to do some crazy things while trying to catch some Pokemons. In my personal experience, I stoppedย mid-acceleration while walking in a mall to catch a Dratini. But that’s way behind crazy.

Last weekend, there was a Pokemon GO stampede in Taipei, Taiwan. Apparently, a wild Snorlax appeared at the heart of the busy city.

The videos and photos taken during the stampede is nothing short of terrifying. Good thing, no one was reported injured.

Watch the video below.

What do you think of this? Do you think this isย also likely to happen here in the Philippines? Where do you think this will happen?
