00:00I've been a One Direction fan since I was a kid, and I was shocked to find out that all this was happening here in Argentina.
00:08And to know that he came to see Niall's show and that he fell from the third floor and died is a bit strong.
00:17And well, it's a shame.
00:21I found out through the news. At first I thought it wasn't real, clearly.
00:26I thought it was something from the media.
00:29And the truth is that it's very painful, because it was a very important part of my life.
00:35I grew up listening to One Direction. It's part of my childhood.
00:39I never thought I would be here, five blocks from my house,
00:43watching an artist who had died in such a tragic way, so young.
