death at Radlett parties

Jump to: Newest in thread

I was at Radlett all night sat. This morning there is reports in many papers of a man drowning as the party started.

How can the party have carried on? No one talked of it and I saw nothing. Is it even possible it didn't happen?

I'm really upset that maybe someone died while we were all having fun.

I also can't understand how people could have not known.

Just had a quick Google and nothing came up.

What did come up was the club re_iew for radlett.

Many re_iews with people's face as their profile pic all for the public to see.

I will look some more. This is a terrible thing to have happened. I understand how you feel glitter.

Your googling is rubbish then I found half a dozen reports saying about it!

It does seem odd that you didn't know about it. I'm guessing they kept IT as quiet as poss as not to upset the other guests x

Yes I found the reports. Sounds terrible. Although it seems strange that if it had happened no one else knew about it. The party would have been stopped yes?

I would have thought so. And some kind of investigation too. I saw and heard nothing and was in the main social areas most of the night till the morning. Not a whisper of anything upsetting.

If it is true that this poor person died at the beginning of the party and the organisers knew and let the party carry on it shows a complete lack of respect for the deceased and a disgraceful way to behave.

I can't believe that the police didn't bring the proceeding to a close as soon as they arrived. Or were they not informed until the end? In which case it would be doubly shocking!

The mirror are not well renowned for their accuracy when telling the news one of the reasons why they are in front of a gov select comitee. However with digging deeper and if true the club should issue a public appoligy.

According to the newspaper report it happened around 12:45 and the owner/organiser performed CPR till the paramedics arrived.

So what you're trying to insinuate is that someone drowned and the body was recovered and police investigation was over in minutes and didn't go on all evening, inter_iewing guests, etc? That the medics, forensics and investigation teams just mooched on out of the way to allow the party to continue?

If someone had actually died then the party would have been over and not just 'carried on'. Surely.

But it appears it happened early hours of Sat morning, not at the start of Sat night. Hence that's why Sat night, nothing was disturbed.

I was a bit upset that Saturday went ahead when I heard about it. However, I had a great time in my ignorant bliss.

It was on Friday, which is why the pool was closed.

I'm amazed they put on such a good party on Saturday given what had happened on Friday and the police being there for most of Saturday. Then to hold it together and keep schtum that whole night.

So the club has stayed open over the weekend, keeping this news hush to avoid losing business. It would have been better if they'd waited for the story to break and let people be informed as to whether they still wanted to visit or not. I think it's bad taste.

I was surprised that no one seemed to know about it. I found out right at the end as I was getting in my car to leave.

I had assumed the pool was just in need of repair and there was nothing to suggest that there had been a death just 24 hours before.

It must be awful for the deceased's family and for everyone at that party.

I am not sure what it will mean for the future of Radlett's parties.

With all the crap that gets printed in the press these days it's hard to know what the full truth is.

This could have been something as simple as someone stubbing their toe in the pool and by the time the tabloid rags get hold of it and mince it up someone has died.

I do hope it's nothing more than misreporting.

Maybe not to avoid losing business but to remain professional to ensure that all those people who wanted to attend on saturday didn't have their plans ruined,people travel hours to get there,book hotels,babysitters,its not just the local pub being closed for the night and you can go off the the next one down the road

I think it would be hard to have informed everyone and sad as it is, there are no suspicious circumstances.

I'm not sure what the right call is in such a tragic situation.

It would be hard to do right by everyone. Some would prefer it closed and others may not have found out till they had travelled and arrived at the venue to find it closed.

I have no idea what is the right thing to do. I expect they took police advice but really I have no idea on such emotional and upsetting issues regarding clubs and parties.

I agree. We only made the decision to go that evening. We sent a message to say we were coming but, essentially, just turned up.

Oh my god that's awful, I haven't read the report yet but will after this post.

But when I first went to Radlett someone fell into the pool there fully dressed. The covering that goes over the pool was folded up near the edge of the deep end obscuring the edge of the water and they stood on it and fell in. If you aren't expecting water and the shock of it is dangerous. Luckily there were a few in the pool and we helped her out.

I find it incredulous that the party continued, surely an ambulance would have been called etc.

Terrible thing to have happened.

I assume the Friday party was disturbed but those of us at the Saturday party were blissfully unaware anything had happened the night before.

Those attending on Friday didn't go to a party to watch someone die. Those of us at the Saturday party didn't know anyone had died. So, unless you mean it's sick to go to any party I really don't see what you are saying.

As one of the Sicko's I'm really happy to tell you that you won't ever need to meet me.

FFS people I was there! It happened on the Friday at approx 12.30am the whole party came to a stop! Some party goers fled due to the police coming! It was a total accident. He was very d*unk and possibly on drugs. He jumped in the pool and couldn't swim or he could have banged his head amd drowned. My partner aswell as 4 others tried CPR on him. Richard and Janet and good people. The police took full statements and details, and the result from the hospital was he passed and it was An ACCIDENT!!! Have some respect.

In my opinion the only people being disrespectful here are the owners of Radletts by pretending like nothing had happened and continuing with their party the following day!

That man's family not only have to deal with the fact he's died suddenly and tragically but find out that it was at a swingers party that they probably knew nothing about

And the owners couldn't just show any ounce of respect by closing for just one night...it would have been the decent thing to do.

It's certainly put me off going again, and quite a number of others too based on the conversations I've been having with my friends!

Let's not jump to conclusions about drugs and alcohol. A post mortum is going to be carried out and that will probably highlight the cause of death.

It's tragic, it happens and I feel for his family and friends as well as those there.

It appears that the club and all involved delt with it in the appropriate way.

But lets face it if the club had closed for the night on Saturday someone would have started a thread bemoaning that they had had their plans spoiled, wasted money and wanted a refund for their outlay as it's done and stopping the party won't bring him back

We were there Saturday night too and a lady on here told us a rumour about someone dying but I just assumed it was rumours. Spoke to one of the party organisers who confirmed it happened. Health and Safety ppl and the police agreed the party cud continue if the pool was closed OR cancel the party and try to get hold of 100 odd ppl to tell them. Damned if ya do and damned if ya don't. I didn't tell anyone at the party, except my partner, as I didn't want to out a downer on ppl's night.

I was there Friday when this happened and was one of the people who tried to save him. He was very d*unk when I had seen him earlier in the night and I do not know how he ended up in the pool but we tried our best but it wasn't enough. The party stopped and many fled as posted before. But it was an accident and a tragedy. It was a difficult experience but I would do the same again to help anyone. I've not read the papers as of yet so I have no idea what lies have been said.

I believe the private hire Saturday night went ahead but no pool or hot tubs were available.

I know Richard did his best as did all of us that tried in vain to save him.

It was a hard night to deal with. I feel for his family and Janet and Richard. A tragic loss.

"It's called damage limitation

Bad taste though to remain open that evening "

The police approved the other party as it had up to 100 guests and asked if the pool remained closed for that night. This is why the party went ahead.

I can see both sides and yes respect in closing would have been my choice but you also have no way of contacting 100 people the same day especially if people have traveled down.

As I Said before its. Horrible tragedy.

Sounds like an awful tragedy! Perhaps preventable in the future by having a lifeguard? Alcohol fuelled people and a pool are obviously a potentially dangerous combination. I would think a lifeguard at all larger parties with pools would be a sensible idea. Xx

After a tragedy like that the last thing the police would want would be 100 irate people on the streets causing a breach of the peace.

Different of course if there was suspicion of foul play, then the police would no doubt want to keep everyone close to inter_iew.

I don't see what the benefit of closing for one night would be other than to draw more attention to the fact.

I reckon that for the family and all involved the less attention the better as it would allow them to deal with it privately.

If they had mentioned the accident then they could well find people turning up to look in the same way you get people slowing down at motorway accidents.

Any death is a tragedy but not all death requires future events to be shut down unless there is a genuine health and safety risk.

Your googling is rubbish then I found half a dozen reports saying about it!

It does seem odd that you didn't know about it. I'm guessing they kept IT as quiet as poss as not to upset the other guests x

Yes I found the reports. Sounds terrible. Although it seems strange that if it had happened no one else knew about it. The party would have been stopped yes?"

The benefit of closing even if just for one night is to be respectful of the circumstances and the persons relatives.

It may have been difficult to tell all the guests they had to cancel the party but by no means impossible. They wouldn't even need to tell them what had happened, just a blanket "due to unforeseen circumstances"!

Some people may have been annoyed or irritated (which personally I think would be wrong and selfish once they knew the reasons) but I think the owners have just made themselves look insensitive and more interested in their business rather than having a sense of decency.

I personally think it's a disgrace and if I'd been at the party on Saturday completely oblivious to what had happened there less than 24 hours before I'd feel physically sick once I found out!

Radletts have been on a couple of recent T.V shows trying to promote the venue and the swinging scene as a whole.

Of course no one could have predicted or necessarily prevented what happened and it appears to be a very tragic accident however the actions of the owners afterwards I think will completely undo everything that they were trying to achieve by being a part of those shows.

Well..

If they had closed the club that weekend they'd have been seen as rockstars and "very cool people".

Business would have been coming to them in spades.

But instead you have 3 sets of people.

Those who have ZERO compassion and "how date they shut I want to have sex".

Those that say "greedy insensitive owners"

And those who are indifferent.

If they had closed they'd have been rockstars.

I must be totally insensitive because I can't see what all the fuss is about.

An unfortunate man (presumably) has a heart attack and dies in a swimming pool. How is that tragic?

I am empathetic towards his family and friends whose grief at the loss of a loved one may well be tainted by the well publicised circumstances of his death.

If you heard someone you didn't even know had a heart attack and died the previous evening at a theater, cinema, pub, snooker hall, palates class or any other public place you go to to enjoy yourself, would you cancel your planned visit because of that death? Or even expect the establishment holding the event to close? I think the honest answers would be no, you wouldn't.

But, he's that special breed of human......a swinger. So all reason goes out the window.

I wouldn't have gone on Saturday if I had known beforehand. However, I didn't know and had a great time as there was no hint anything had happened other than a lot of hard work to decorate and get a huge spread on the table for the party.

Knowing someone has died won't stop me going again in the future.

I'm not mawkish but I would have felt it was too soon. As I understand it now there was a possibility that Saturday night could have been cancelled but after the police gave the go ahead it was quite late on and they decided with going ahead and letting people enjoy themselves.

People die all the time at public events. They don't halt a football match after 60 minutes if somebody has a heart attack. Same with concerts at the O2 or other venues.

If somebody dies on a plane and they can move the body without too much inconvenience they will stash it in one of the toilets. If not, they will chuck a blanket over it. Not pleasant for the pax sitting next to them, if they can't move them to another seat.

We all die sometime and although it is a tragedy for our nearest and dearest the world doesn't stop turning. The club made a decision whether that is right or wrong is for your own individual consciences

In six months time, only those close to him will even remember

I just assumed it would be upsetting for the party organisers, obviously not.

Having dived in and pulled the man out, then assisted others trying to revive him, calling the emergency services, tell everyone at the Friday night party what had happened and dealing with the police, the newspapers and the ongoing enquires from the authorities including any inquest.... I think it is impossible that the party organisers were not upset by this unfortunate death. Their very proximity and efforts to save him for me make that a given. Lets please debate this subject with sensitivity all round. I know the organisers of the Friday party slightly... I have not spoken to them about these events but they are decent people who put in a lot of effort to allow others to have fun. This is not a normal swingers club but a private home in which they live. The Saturday party which had a theme of a Mad Hatters Theme party was organised by another couple but held at the house. I did talk to that couple but before I knew of the death. They are also a throughly decent couple who put a lot of work into making the party work well. I do know that they were unsure if it would go ahead until about midday on the Saturday.

What are the rights and wrongs of holding the Saturday party.... I don't know... I don't like to be judgmental but I do know both couples involved are decent caring people. If there is something that we as an adult community can do, its to discourage people at adult clubs and parties drinking to excess and take drugs. My sympathies to the deceased's friends and family.

"How do we even know he was taking drugs though? Sorry I haven't read the whole thread but was he even witnessed taking drugs? "

We don't know if he was taking drugs. There has been mention of alcohol, here and elsewhere.

"rip to the brother who died. people shouldnt assume he took drugs, im a trained pool lifeguard n all pools should have risk assesments, nop's and eap's in place.The very least they should have panic alarms, buoyancy aids and cameras. Im guessing this pool had non of that. these private members clubs should start taking responsibility as they are busier than most profit making businesses n r dam site more risky when they permit alcohol on premices.

sadly this wont be the last death as this and michael barrymores is one of many.

I would lifeguard at a swingers club if they gave me free entry the following night..

anyway very sad news

excuse me?! You think you should be given free entry?! You should have to pay like everyone else!

If a club hires a stripper, he has to pay entry if he wants to stay, just like everyone else!

Yes, but then he would have been paid to turn up, this guy was offering to do it for free."

doesn't matter! He should still pay to get entrance like everyone else!

Then why is everyone saying he was d*unk and taking drugs...he was 35 there could be a number of reasons why he died if they are saying he died of a heart attack he may of died from adult what's it name when a young person suffers a heart attack but to keep on saying he was on drugs and d*unk is not very considerate of the family espically when a cause of death has not been confirmed

Then he should charge his hourly rate for performing his duties, I'm sure that would be more than the entry fee.

Any specific reason why you object to entry in return for services?

This is like Chinese whispers. I'm not saying he took drugs. I am saying that as an adult community what we can do to help avoid tragic events like this, is to help discourage people drinking to excess or taking drugs at an adult club or party. I have seen both, fortunately very occasionally at one or two clubs in the past.

"Question for all those upset the whole weekend wasnt cancelled and thus upsetting the plans of everyone else attending who travel,arranged sitter,booked hotal accom etc etc etc///

Do we expect every hotel that experiences this to boot everyone out and close up until after its sorted?

Id like to think;he went out at a swingers party( better than how many of us will bow out i suspect)

and

How brilliant of the hosts to be able to carry on without upsetting everyone..THATS professional..

Imagine, 200 people, all moaning or cpmplaining about;

The party carrying on

OR

about the party being cancelled..

If no one knew, then no one was upset ..until after

I have not commented whether it should have gone on or not, but life goes on for others.

but brilliant, not so sure... they will have considered their bottom line first I would imagine.

but granted, gutsy to put aside what must have been upsetting."

Change brilliant to commendable..

Having known Janet for some years now I can tell you she would have been very upset...but she wouldnt let however upset she was on to anyone else.

I saw your post then had to get back to work so didn't see much after that I was just wondering if there was any evidence. I think until the cause of death is known we should not fabricate on what happen or assume he was d*unk and on drugs

He's not wanting free entry, he is forgoing payment for his nights work in return for entry the next day.

(It is just the same as if he was paid one night and gave it back the next just without any money changing hands)

This is very sad news... some of us will know this guy who lost his life, but ALL of us know he was part of our swinging scene, we should ALL be paying our respects to him and his family....

What I would like to know when the pool was open to the public why was the no life guard who should be supervising this area.

I used to swim for my county and by law we was never allowed to enter the water without a life guard present, if the law states as it was a private propety, I think the law should make owners of pools who lease to public to hire life guards, if there was one there this tragic accident would not of happened.

I do believe the owner was given the choice of closing the pool or shutting for saturday night, but unable to contact all guest so the pool was closed.

I think instead of this becoming a debate , lets have a little thought for his family, after all he was one of us, not just a stranger...

R.I.P

I'm pretty sure fast food places give employees free food and cinemas let them watch free films. Just a shame banks don't let them have free money.

Maybe some people should stop and think about the trauma Richard, Janet and the others guests who were there to witness the death, are going through! We know Janet and Richard personally, and we know they are going through an extremely tough time. Maybe in time they will wonder if having the party the day after was the right / wrong thing to do, but it's done! I just don't think some people who have slated them have been fair.

Like other people have stated, anyone can die anywhere.. If there's a death on a motorway, the motorway re-opens as soon as the crash is cleared.. The decision to go ahead with the party was obviously not made lightly. After advice from the police to "go ahead with the party as there was no suspicious circumstances", Radlett / Playground parties were dammed if they do and dammed if they don't. The horrible incident has caused an awful ripple effect and so many people have been effected whether it be directly or indirectly.

RIP to the man and I hope the speculation ceases soon

As a woman do you not receive free or heavily discounted entry to most clubs?

If this guy spent all night keeping you safe would you still want him to pay the full rate single male charge?

If you feel so strongly about equality do you always offer to pay the male entry fee, so you are the same too?

This is very sad news... some of us will know this guy who lost his life, but ALL of us know he was part of our swinging scene, we should ALL be paying our respects to him and his family....

What I would like to know when the pool was open to the public why was the no life guard who should be supervising this area.

I used to swim for my county and by law we was never allowed to enter the water without a life guard present, if the law states as it was a private propety, I think the law should make owners of pools who lease to public to hire life guards, if there was one there this tragic accident would not of happened.

I do believe the owner was given the choice of closing the pool or shutting for saturday night, but unable to contact all guest so the pool was closed.

I think instead of this becoming a debate , lets have a little thought for his family, after all he was one of us, not just a stranger...

R.I.P

because he's wanting it for free! Why should he get free entry?! If a club hired a stripper and he wanted to free entry, he'd be told to pay, doesn't matter whether the stripper got paid for his services or not, its still the same

He's not wanting free entry, he is forgoing payment for his nights work in return for entry the next day.

(It is just the same as if he was paid one night and gave it back the next just without any money changing hands)

Do people lose all logic when the forums get heated?

he said he would lifeguard events if he got free entry for the night after, um no, he should pay like everyone else.

Doesn't matter what service he's providing and whether he gets paid or not, he should still pay

I'll remind work of that tomorrow then, it's supposed to be payday but apparently I shouldn't expect any kind of remuneration for doing a job.

I mean't in terms of wanting free entry to a club

I'm pretty sure fast food places give employees free food and cinemas let them watch free films. Just a shame banks don't let them have free money.

I know people who work at fast food places and they still pay for their food. One bloke got told off by his line manager for taking food that wasn't free so no they don't get free food, they still have to pay

I think you misunderstood, they have an allowance of food, if they want more than that they have to pay. A friend who has a friend who once went to a fast food place told me that.

I'm very sorry, I don't mean to antagonise but your response to the poor guy offering to be a life guard for free was so vicious.

haha it was meant as a joke. most clubs would prefer that as a way of payment, avoids the tax man and would work out cheaper than paying me the minimum wage. 8 hours x 6.50 so work it out!!!

yes i would want him to pay full single men prices if he were keeping me safe

I'm ending this, not having this stupid debate on a thread like this.

I was tempted to ask if that was you ending it by not posting again as opposed to continuing to push your point before declaring the debate over?

Instead I'll say again that it was a sad event, there was no foul play and the club probably did the most sensible thing by not highlighting what had happened.

"It's called damage limitation

Bad taste though to remain open that evening

It doesn't make them look good."

I don't see how it is supposed have made them look bad either! im sure after having to try to resuscitate a guy, deal with the paramedics and police, the shock, the other guests, and all the rest of it, that they would rather of had the night off. instead they carried on, sounds like Saturday night was enjoyed by many, well done to them for the strength they have shown. closing would have made no difference to the man or his family.

if it had been a pub with another party booked the next night, a wedding venue, etc, would people expect them to close too?

Well, that escalated quickly.

Re: the actual topic under discussion and not the one on the finer points of wage labour and capital,

I can't see why it would have been any more "respectful" of the guy who drowned to cancel the party the following night or not.

I'm pretty sure I'd find it slightly patronising if it were a relative of that person if a bunch of people who my family didn't know stopped an evening out because my relative (and presumably someone the people lined up to attend didn't know either) died in an accident.

"Maybe some people should stop and think about the trauma Richard, Janet and the others guests who were there to witness the death, are going through! We know Janet and Richard personally, and we know they are going through an extremely tough time. Maybe in time they will wonder if having the party the day after was the right / wrong thing to do, but it's done! I just don't think some people who have slated them have been fair.

Like other people have stated, anyone can die anywhere.. If there's a death on a motorway, the motorway re-opens as soon as the crash is cleared.. The decision to go ahead with the party was obviously not made lightly. After advice from the police to "go ahead with the party as there was no suspicious circumstances", Radlett / Playground parties were dammed if they do and dammed if they don't. The horrible incident has caused an awful ripple effect and so many people have been effected whether it be directly or indirectly.

RIP to the man and I hope the speculation ceases soon"

I feel sorry for the guy who died...

I feel so sorry for the owners of this house, who now have to decide how to move forward in the light of this.

As said previous, people die in many situations, and are you expected to be notified if a hotel room you booked, has had a death in the room in the past..? I think not...

I hope respect is given to all concerned, but at the back of my mind, is to those who ran...Someone who ran, may have seen something, but will we ever know?

Emotional thread and rightly so. People deal with tragedy in their own way and apart from obvious extremes there is rarely a right or a wrong way....just your way and your judgement call.

The common underlying reaction is one of sadness, that reflects well on all of us.
