The aircraft caught fire AFTER the bounced landing due to the engines/tail slamming on the ground. The FO said they followed all procedures for the initial emergency. According to the CA the botched landing was caused due to their gross weight way above landing weight and loss of full flight control authority. After the bounce I’m sure the only intention was to just keep the aircraft on the ground in whatever way they could. As of now it appears the entire crew did the best they could for what they were delt. With only the fwd exits usable, the large death toll was most likely a result of passenger congestion due to grabbing luggage, which is very unfortunate, but this happens everywhere and like others have said this should be considered a criminal act.

Hopefully if it happened in the US, at least the families of the dead would have civil suits against the living that took baggage, criminal charges would be better, but barring that...

Never ever happen. Entitled selfishness is a constitutionaly guaranteed right.
The accused would simply claim they were too traumatized to know what they were doing. No jury would convict. Too much to expect pax to remember the safety instructions, assuming they even listened in the first place.

I searched for, but could not find, the video of the cabin evac of the AA 767 in Chicago in 2016.
People were casually getting luggage, seemingly no panic, and taking the time to video the whole thing.
Never mind that the right engine had disintegrated, sending a turbine disk THROUGH the wing, with gushing fuel and a raging fire that melted the wing (the tip was touching the runway).
The flames were to the top of the tail. They could see it through the windows.
And they stopped for luggage.
Oh...when they went down the slides, THEN they got concerned and outraged. Most ran to the edge of the grass....and stopped to make phone calls.
If someone can find the link....please post.
The 777 in Dubai? Same thing.

No, people would sue and somehow find the airline, aircraft manufacturer, and FAA at fault for current policies and procedures.
I’m case you can’t tell, my post has the same as Rick’s.
Satire/sarcasm, tinged with a high probability of happening in this day and age.

"I blame FAA and the plane manufacturer for the failed evacuation. Oh, and here's a selfie and a video to prove it!"
