10 Photos with Disturbing Backstories

Photos taken just SECONDS BEFORE the tragedy can be more horrifying than photos of the incident itself. Imagine the photographer lowering their lens with trembling hands, realizing that the person whose photo they’ve just taken is already dead. Check out the most disturbing images in this video!

I don’t want to sound insensitive but some of these could have been prevented if people didn’t do stupid things

You got the story wrong for the first one, I remember seeing the video. The building was slippery and wet already and he was wiping it down to make it more grip-able before hanging on the edge and doing a few test pull-ups. Finally, hung on the edge if the building, did another pull up and at that point was too weak to get back up, not only that; the building was slippery so all he could do is hang on. He let out a eerie cry and let go of the building. He fell far and landed on the ledge of the building far down (forgot which floor) but yes that's how he died.

At least give us a few second to look instead of instantly transitioning off the picture

"Whether he died instantly or lingered in agony at the hospital...we'll never know". What kind of stupid sh*t is that?

[heidetermeg]

I can barely stomach even seeing pictures of people being daredevils on the ledges of buildings - It literally feels like I'm there with them. Yuck. I hate heights.. 🤢

Last story the dude was admitted into hospital looking like that, he was kept alive for research by the military hospital he was at to see how long he could survive. He begged to die before he lost the ability to speak, he lost his eyelids and all his skin. He was constantly hypothermic and had to be covered in moist gauze because he had no functioning skin and would dehydrate literally. It’s a horrible story.

You really need to fact check these stories of REAL people considering you got the first one and the two young men m the wind turbine wrong (it was 2013, not 2022). These are REAL stories so please be more mindful when you’re creating this content.

Is it wrong of me to think all of these situations could have been avoided with more common sense and less stupidity? I mean seriously?

The story about the astronaut is wrong, he didn't burn from the crash on the ground, he burned to death when he was re-entering the atmosphere all the way down to the ground and crashed. He was heard yelling at the commanders for forcing him to do that and could also be heard yelling about how hot is was getting, what a horrible way to go!

Nice video but the Soviets going into space were cosmonauts. Astronauts are the ones from the West.

Backflip on edge of rooftop....a statement no one should EVER VOLUNTARILY make.

The picture of Hisashi Ouchi at the very end was taken right after he had been brought to the hospital after the incident.
What he looked like 'just before his last breath' is very graphic. Also, there are a bunch of people who received a higher dose of radiation than 17 Sv. That thing about it being the highest dose of radiation a human has ever received is merely misinformation that has somehow spread alongside that case.

I have to pause and almost slow down the video to get a good look at the photos. Like dude, you could linger a little.

[Legacy-swbv]

Hisashi Ouchi "lived" for 83 days, but the term "live" is used very loosely. The final stretch involved him intubated, thus sedated (which was probably a mercy). His body was dying and decomposing over that whole ordeal, and he was only allowed to stay dead after his 3rd cardiac arrest. He should've been allowed to pass peacefully much earlier.

[izakeasley]

To be specific that pilot said that right before they crashed in a soft voice realizing he just made his fatal mistake. Quite chilling

[FigaroHey]

"radioactive radiation"? Is that like frozen ice?

[STÜDD_Music]

Hisashi Ouchi looked much, much worse. His skin was blackened and was falling off the muscle all over his body. His skin would peel off of his bandages and he would be in unimaginable pain every time his nurses would attempt to remove the bandages or clean his skin. His eyelids were burned completely off so he had to sleep with his eyes open, the doctors didn’t put him out of his misery for 83 days because he became a medical mystery. They experimented on him instead of putting him out of his misery. You need to fact check a little better.

Not a huge detail, but the wind turbine accident actually happened October 29th, 2013, not October 22nd, 2022.

The 9:34 photo made me tear up. They died but at least they didn't die alone, they had their last moment in each other's arms.

I'm extremely surprised at the plane crash in Taipae.
Any time ANYONE survives a large passenger plane crash, INTO THE WATER no less, is definitely an event with _extremely_ small odds.
The fact more than 10 people survived that crash is astounding.
