Best Answer

As the average person occupies more or less 1 square foot of standing space, you could squeeze a maximum of 128 standees on a platform that size. Stacking them in layers horizontally would fit more, but would be increasingly uncomfortable for the bottom rows.

The questions of safety include that the trailer should not ever be moving, and that (at some point) the axle-weight capacity of the trailer might be exceeded. At a Mardi Gras parade, approximately 10-12 persons could stand on a stationary platform that size and not be uncomfortably crowded (including space for the surrounding safety rail).
