This is the moment a waitress, carried on the shoulders of a colleague, held a sparkler in the air before a deadly blaze ripped through a Swiss ski bar, killing at least 47 people and injuring 115. Adrien was also at Le Constellation when the fire began. He told Italian public broadcaster Rai News one of his friends was 'was burned all over' while another was taken to Zurich by helicopter. Another witness, Gianni, told Swiss outlet 20 Minuten that victims suffered severe burns, with their faces 'completely disfigured' and hair burned away. His father had gone out to Le Constellation looking for him following reports of the fire, as his family launched an appeal to find him.
