Wednesday marks the 10 year anniversary of the Texas A&M bonfire collapse that killed 12 people and injured 27.
Around 2:30 a.m. on November 18, 1999, a towering stack of logs for the A&M bonfire collapsed as students were building it.
The stack was 59 feet high -- nearly six stories tall. It consisted of more than 5,000 logs.
The stack design -- which looks like a wedding cake -- was found to be a factor in the collapse.
The A&M bonfire dates back to 1909 and is one of A&M's most famous traditions.
A number of events are scheduled on this 10th anniversary which ended the "on campus" annual ritual.
KVUE’s Shelton Green has a preview.
