On Monday, a Spanish human pyramid coach stated that the Dahi Handi process is about formation with a lot of safety and stress must be on timing rather than the number of layers. The expert was in Thane to attend preparations for the Dahi Handi festivities which will take place on September 7. The expert from Barcelona also stated the Janmashtami festivities in Mumbai are amazing and he is here to observe the methods employed by various Dahi Handi mandals and give suggestions. Some standout points in a report highlighting this were, putting safety above the height of the pyramid. The way the pyramid is formed is all important. He also said that Spain and Mumbai are not here to compete against each other. The point is to learn from each other.

This edit space has stressed earlier too that safety is vital, let us put an accent on caution, stirring messages, faultless conduct and celebrations with responsibility. Even on the ground, revellers must maintain traffic discipline and exemplary adherence to rules, so that all-round these become truly joyous occasions.
There have been certain rules that have come in since the pyramid has been designated as adventure sport. Safety gear, especially helmets and limb protection, is important.
Remember too, that we have seen rains in the past few days, so there is a chance of slipping and serious injury. Do be on guard against that.
Mandals need some cushioning so some mattress for a soft landing below the pyramid will help.
Like the expert says there is no competition between Spain and Mumbai, there is no competition between different mandals with regard to height, except the spirit and rules followed during this festival.
More power to a unique spectacular display that puts caution at its core.
