9/11 is the one that gets me everytime. Can't imagine how bad it must have been being anywhere near the towers at the time

Budd Dwyer's suicide - WARNING: GRIM


:help

live on tely, unbelievable, cant believe I haven't heard of half of these tbh

the Tom Pryce one is pretty grim as well, though the gory part is the steward rather than Pryce himself, I wouldnt have wanted to see Pryce's head after tho, hit on the head by a fire extinguisher while travelling at 100 odd MPH...wowzers

Yeah, I've seen both of those before, and they are fairly shocking. Amazingly, both of these clips can be found on the family friendly Youtube, while certain videos that I've uploaded had to be taken down due to certain bollox policies they have. W"nkers.

I don't think that Tom Pryce one qualifies as breaking news, though? Was it live on TV? There was also the Ukrainian air show disaster that happened a few years back when a jet crashed into the crowd. Again, that can be found on Youtube, and it easily the most shocking video I have ever watched on the net, with the aftermath showing bits of people everywhere; kids mangled where they fell. You can get slapped on the wrist for being naughty by uploading 30 seconds or so of music, but stuff like the video I just described is allowed to remain.

Im surprised they're so easy to access like. Just strolling around the internet you can find a man shooting himself in the head, a dude being beheaded or a bloke doing vulgar things with another woman but I can't find the fuckin football highlights!! :angry: :angry:

watched it yesterday, instinctly blinked at the moment of the trigger pull.  I remember seeing it on the news, they showed up until he put the gun in his mouth.  Really Really gorey video.

the Tom Pryce would be another nasty one...never seen it, but read about it. The guy was an F1 driver, hit a marshall and cut him in 2... the driver was then killed when the fire extinguisher (which the Marshall was holding) hit him on in the face.

done it dude, what do I win  :D

I remember when the video went round of that dude being beheaded as well, I saw that - I can safely say that my heart goes out to his family and anyone who knew the guy. That is the single most gut wrenching video I have ever seen in my life

Those are the kind of video where I absolutely draw the line. I'll never watch one of those. No one should ever see anything like that being done to another human being.

There's also another video nasty on Youtube regarding an NHL goal keeper in a horrible accident where another skater's blade on his skate came up and caught him on the neck. That was also live on TV at the time. Easily the most horrific sports injury you'll ever see. He didn't die, but the sight of the blood spurting onto the ice is not for the faint hearted.

It was going rounds when I was back in highschool, the video was stuck in my head for a week. Absolutely sickening and to think these people were doing it in he name of Allah :no
