6 Most Disturbing Cases of Real Found Footage

The found footage horror genre is a subgenre of fictional horror films that presents the story as if it were discovered footage. This got me thinking if there were any real-life cases of found footage. This video will cover 6 of the most disturbing real cases I could find.

The first guy was less creepy and more somewhat cringe. It was a bad attempt at acting creepy. Dude actually said “what a laugh” lol

Find an unmarked video tape on the side of the road -- sit down as a family to watch.

“Jason sleeping” is absolutely parents keeping an eye on their kid. Probably watching for seizures or something. I don’t see it as weird.

The dudes quiet yelling in the first segment is kind of hilarious.

this guy doesnt f around as soon as you click on the video he starts talking about the case right away 😂😂 i appreciate you!!

This is the only “found footage” video I’ve ever clicked on where it just delivers as promised. No BS, no hedging. Just precisely as advertised. Thanks to the OP.

The child being filmed looks around 4-5 years old which is the peak age for night terrors. It usually happens exactly 2-3 hrs after falling asleep, to the point the parent can almost tell by the clock. They probably wanted to record it for their doctor or maybe to prove the child is asleep and alone when it happens. It's utterly terrifying if you've never experienced it before. The child wakes up screaming in terror, runs around the room or tries to run out the door and can often injure themselves. If you're lucky, it only happens 3-4 times a year. If unlucky, every single night for months. It's related to sleepwalking and they have absolutely no memory of it the next day.

the footage of Ronnie and the pilot gave me such bad chills. it sounds like such a normal flight, he's pointing out cool things for his passenger to look at. I'm glad they were found and were able to be laid to rest with their families.

I’m a pilot and I can say that your description of “density altitude” and its accompanying considerations was absolutely spot on. Usually channels don’t take the time to research that type of stuff and get it right. It instills confidence that you actually look into things and make an effort to get real information out there. Good stuff 👍

Dude. That unsolved mysteries segment of the fire scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. Corny now. lol

[synivy]

Awh glad Richard didn’t release those horrifying last moments thanks for showing empathy for his loved ones…from the few clips he seemed like fun

[jango.jose]

The last moments of the men in that plane footage was terrifying. Can't imagine that feeling when you realize you've lost all control of the plane and you're sinking to the ground.

[VonDoughBoy]

I’m gonna be honest, that video of “Jason sleeping” could be something related to the child having a medical issue and the parent is recording to make sure they don’t have insomnia or something. Without context, it looks really weird. However, my parents used to check in on me at night to make sure my ears weren’t causing me extreme discomfort, since I had extreme ear problems and was in pain constantly.

Not playing with a full deck is a helluva line to call someone stupid 😂😂😂

[Sp_Ogshape]

Mans in the first video think he the main villain 🤣.

[Secret_]

The last moments of the people on that plane were terrifying. It's hard to imagine the feeling of realizing you've lost complete control of the plane, knowing you won't survive.

The Foster Falls story makes complete sense. I lived near there for a few years and have swam in that same pool to that same waterfall. The water is freezing, and even as an in-shape (albeit skinny) guy, I started to get cold and nearly lock up before reaching the water fall. Swimming in cold water when you can't touch the bottom is no joke.

Bro gave us a Christmas present before going into hibernation

[lanaebabs]

Mad respect to the escort who decided to get involved even tho it was likely dangerous for her to do so. It probably would've been easier and safer for her to just discard the phone but she was able to lock that murderer away.

[Artmis]

As someone who used to have really bad nightmares, I can 100% see a possibility that the parent was just recording the child to check up on them at night. Also, baby monitors. It’s not creepy to set up baby monitors, right? Baby monitors at the time were between 20-30 dollars, which was pretty expensive in the 90s. Recording could have definitely been their alternative for watching over their child.
