Yalda Hakim visits the site of one of the world's worst industrial disasters.

More than a thousand Bangladeshi garment makers were crushed to death in the capital, Dhaka, when the illegally built warehouse they worked in suddenly collapsed. Many local people pitched in to try and rescue those trapped by the concrete, even if it meant cutting off their limbs.
