Erfurt Animation

I promised a faster turn-around than Virginia Tech, and I wanted to keep this promise. I used the official document, which I'll link, as my primary source. As per usual, I took some creative liberties with some of the details, but it's as accurate with the report as I could make it.

The original document, in German:
I also used the English version, posted by skeletor_thagawd on Reddit, but the link on the post is broken. The English one does have some confusing parts due to the translation software, so manually Google Translating the original document is better, in my opinion.

I still can't believe he actively went for teachers, even pushing a student out the way. I've never seen anything like it.

[kyokari]

He could've easily hurt so many more people if he didn't have hate solely for the teachers. Pretty scary.

[SQUAREHEADSAM]

That was smart of the teacher to lock the shooter in that room, he probably saved a few more lives by doing that.

[tacdragzag]

The way the shooter interacted with various people along the way as he went for the teachers is... Quite an unexpected thing to observe

[austinwolfdog]

it's scary seeing him pass so many people. especially looking at how many people he killed. this could easily have became more deadly.

My hometown... I've watched so many documentaries about this shooting but your level of detail in this is simply amazing. you'd have to translate all the video recordings and articles, much respect!

[yeah]

Imagine being the student who got pat on the back. Like the killer of probably some of your teachers just doesn’t kill you, gun in his hand, and lets you go. Pretty different

Great vid as usual. Please continue to shed light on these horrible tragedies

I was born&raised in Erfurt City. Robert S. was in the intensified course for English&in the theatre drama club at his high school. Half a year before his horrible act, he showed his English teacher (who was also the conductor of the theatre drama club) a self made script for a stage play about mobbing in English language. This conductor was frightened about the explicit content&said to Robert that this would blow up the frame. Unfortunately, half a year later he performed that script...alone! Sad but true. Things you experience in your fantasy do not need to become reality.

Man I can’t imagine if he makes a new animation about the Kerch Massacre.Keep up the work, Im very interested in your combo of commentary and animation.

[clayleone]

Excellent work as always man, always worth the wait. RIP to all those poor teachers, just trying to educate the next generation

[innovaworksinnova]

I know you get this a lot but I absolutely love your work even though it's a grim subject. So informative and it allows a deeper insight into these tragedies that occur.

[Cloakerson]

Really appreciate your contributions to this field of research. They’re always extremely detailed and give us a much needed perspective overview of these events.

Your best video yet. The improvement since your old videos is crazy considering your old videos were great to begin with. The audio is a lot better, your voice is a lot clearer without any “mouth sounds.” And the colours used to identify the status of students and teachers is a lot easier to follow. But to be honest I prefer how in previous videos you refer to the perpetrator as “the shooter” rather than by name. Either way this is an incredible video, well done

[shadymorsi]

I think i will be called a conspiracy theorist but i think he wasnt the teachers pet

[jensbaumann]

An diesem Tag stand ich vor dem Gutenberger Gymnasium...eine weitere traurige Geschichte meiner Stadt! Grüße aus Erfurt.

[robloxiankellen]

This is probably the most disturbing because he only had one target

[thwhiteprince]

Seems obvious he had problems with those in authority

[kLlas]

I recommend you to get in contact with Stiglitz Shch if you want to do Kerch next, she's a very good person and knows a lot about Kerch. Other than that, Rest In Peace to all the 16 innocent lives lost in the Erfurt massacre.

Can't wait to see the next one, you're the best shooting animator on YouTube
