UPDATE: This video was removed because of a copyright claim from the WWE. I had to trim a portion of chapter 4 out which is why the edit might seem jarring. The video is still under dispute and unfortunately might be taken down again so enjoy it while it’s here! The whole situation is really disappointing as this was one of my best performing videos before it was taken down, but I’m just happy it’s back up again.🙏🏻

That cameraman who thought to put the SD card in the water bottle was a genius under extreme pressure.

During the helicopter crash, hearing the guy say "Whoa JESUS!" right before they crash, then hearing his scream just fade away is honestly bone-chilling.

[purplehaze]

Mick Philpott intentionally setting a fire so he can look like a hero after putting it out is literally textbook hero syndrome.

For those who don't know: it used to be that the pilots flying news helicopters were responsible for reporting too. This crash changed a lot, now reporting is done by reporters and not the pilots.

When I clicked on this, I was not expecting to see coverage of an accident involving someone I knew. Rick Krolak, the cameraman for channel 15 in the helicopter crash (13:07), was my cousin's father and my uncle before he and my aunt divorced. I remember being at my university when my mom called me with the news. There is now a memorial for the two pilots and two cameramen in the park where they crashed.

Hearing that reporter say "I think it was Scott.." broke my heart

[jesterofthestars]

"I think it was scott" that just hurts even more hearing him panicking because of that helicopter collision. I feel so bad for everyone that was effected by that crash.

3:27 that smile sent chills. these kinds of recovered footages are always so sad

[randomtoxicplayeronline]

The helicopter collision is probably the most devastating thing I've seen in a while. The reactions of the friends and coworkers of the four men who perished is heartbreaking, and I only wish peace to those who passed away.

As far as the Benoit situation, William Regal lived very close to Benoit, so he was intimately familiar with the domestic problems Chris and Nancy had been having. He’d been called on a couple of occasions to calm Benoit down when he was angry or upset. So, Regal knew a lot more than everyone else at the memorial show, which is why he made the very vague and somewhat cryptic comments about him and his family.

As someone from the UK Mick Philpott is much much eviler than described here. There’s documentaries about the family before the fire and it’s heartbreaking to see the kids running around carefree not knowing what was waiting for them.

[TheForestKeepr]

Hearing "I think it was scott..." and his panicked breathing is so heartbreaking I genuinely cried a bit

As a Chilean, it really cannot be overstated how much the plane crash impacted the country. Not only did pretty much everyone watch calle 7 every night, as a family, but also Felipe Camiroaga was and is somewhat of a symbol, especially for elderly women of the country. Before hes death he was an idol, but after he became somewhat of a divine figure (not exaggerating, look up some photos of homemade shrines or calendars of him). Sad stuff all around, I vividly remember the night that I saw that calle 7 episode live, since I was around 8 years old or so, my mom made me and my sister get out of the kitchen and covered our ears so as to not hear.

[lisamoul]

I’ve seen several documentaries about Mick Philpott. Such a heartbreaking case. He was a level of evil that I will never understand.

[TotalPogoGuy]

To quote Paul Heyman on the Chris Benoit incident: "Three died that nights and only one of them had a choice." Really morbid, but so true...

[TwoJuan]

I'm chilean and i still remember how sudden and tragic this accident was for the country. people here specially loved Felipe Camiroaga, he was very charismatic and everyone who got to know him in person said that he was humble and a genuinely great guy despite being one of the most famous people in Chile at the time. may he and all the people who were in that plane rest in peace.

"Oh I think that was Scott" from the camera man watching his friends crash in the helicopter got me. It sounded like it physically took his breath away for a moment :(

As someone who is into photography, there is something about documenting your last moments and preserving the last records of yourself and the people around you, when no one outside the plane would have otherwise shared your experience the same way, idk. It’s incredibly haunting, and yet there is something so genuine to it that almost makes it beautiful as well as horrifying. It’s the memories, and taking steps in your last moments to keep them safe, knowing that you won’t be there for when the people see them, but wanting to share your experience anyway. I’m not sure I’m wording this well. I don’t want to come off like I think it’s just beautiful and that i feel it’s not tragic and it very much is horrifying, to have any idea at all of what they were feeling, it’s tragic, but there is something so human about wanting others to know. It’s so very personal to preserve it for others, to share your last moments because you yourself won’t be there to remember them. To be remembered. To possibly share even a little of what it felt like. To do what you can to keep those images safe for others to see. I don’t know how to explain it, it’s moving. It’s expressive. It leaves your memory. You feel a connection and it’s incredibly tragic. It’s tragic that this is the last way they had to make a connection. It was deliberate as well. Those pictures weren’t taken by someone else, they were personal and intentionally shared with the people they left behind. It’s like a letter someone left behind in their last moments, but the story is told without words

My dad saw that broadcast in the 90s, he told me he was shaking and crying for the rest of that day and couldnt sleep for days. He also told me he still has nightmares about it to this day.
