Human stampedes most often occur during religious pilgrimages and professional sporting and music events, as these events tend to involve a large number of people. They also occur in times of panic (e.g. as a result of a fire or explosion) as people try to get away.

In the classroom all persons must line up, form a queue, and
must gather at the outside assembly area or safe area. No one
will run, turn back or shout. This is important to prevent panic
and stampede.

neutral  James McVay: "Stampede" normally refers to a panicked rush of animals. Although it can be used metaphorically in referring to people, I wouldn't use it in a serious document about safety

  -> Thank you for your input, James! Biologically, humans are indeed animals. I just want to believe that, spiritually, some of them are not :)
