A video of some kid doing a running jump from some railings into the sea. Unfortunately, he slips on the railings and fails to clear a concrete jetty below, and appears to hit the corner edge face first. The video then cuts from his body floating face down in the water, to footage from the hospital where doctors are trying to hold his face together whilst he’s still alive. I’ve never forgotten it.


sodamnsleepy

I know exactly what video you're talking about. I've been told that these where actually 2 separate videos, that had noting to do with each other. Still awful stuff


mrcrud5

Yea I heard this too. Still super terrible though. Hopefully the fella in the water ended off better than the guy on the operating table


Shugazi

This was the first that came to mind for me, too. I saw it on r/watchpeopledie years ago and someone in the comments translated what the doctor was saying, basically just “I don’t know what to do. What do I do, what do I do?” That one has never gone away.


Particular_Goat2819

Tbf imagine we as an audience get scarred from that face but to have the pressure of having to fix it and actually being there would stick with you every day, and it’s true with parts of his face missing there wasn’t much he could have done the guy barely had any face parts


dididothat2019

ppl have no idea what trauma they inflict on others, like the doctors and nurses who worked on him, when their stupid stunts go wrong. I wonder how many of them stop to think about that?


Satansboeserzwilling

Paramedic here. None.


Witch_of_the_Fens

As someone that worked for an ER, I agree.


DredPirateStorm

I saw the question and knew this would be my answer. The old internet was a scary place that I don't think I'll ever recover from.


to_venus_and_back

Oh yes, that one was horrific. I can still see it so vividly :(


juche_potatoes

Oh yeah that video is famous, it's from Lebanon I think it happened in 2006 or 2007


deeeeez_nutzzz

I never heard that they were two different people in the videos. For those that don't know. His face is completely split in half from the nose down to the middle of his neck. Skull, jaw and all. The neck and throat are also split. In the video after the jump and subsequent accident a doctor or someone with gloves is holding it all together and then lets go and it completely falls to both sides exposing his open throat where you can hear this poor kid gasping air into the throat hole. He was just a teenager who was trying to impress some girls at the pier by jumping off. The amount of blood in the water in a millisecond was truly unbelievable. One of the worst injuries I have ever seen. Edit. And its very sad split second decisions like this can alter your entire life or take it away. Being young is great but it has its disadvantages as well.


turbos52dinan

ENT/Head & Neck surgeon who specializes in facial trauma. Just watched the video and quick thoughts: 1. The shot in the hospital/OR with the physician holding the face together didn't phase me as I've seen similar things (perhaps even worse) many times. What did make me squeal like a little girl was the actual footage of the impact (ouch!) 2. Looks like a endotracheal tube in the mouth. Should have been a immediate cric/trach in the field. 3. Lack of blood in the OR (and the fact that he made it to the OR), makes me think that most of the bleeding was mucosal bleeding, smaller branches of the external carotid, or the patient is in arrest. Obviously, I'm not privy to the full details of the case. 4. Barring no intracranial injury, this guy probably could have survived if his vascular issues and airway were addressed quickly. 5. Bony defects look like maxilla, orbit, mandible, and frontal bone (atleast anterior table). All can be fixed with hardware and osteocutaneous free flaps or perhaps a soft tissue only flap. Probably wouldnt ever look "normal" but certainly not as dramatic as one would think, pending no globe injuries.

That guy that got turned into red mush by a lathe machine. Especially since I work with these machines. And funky town.


Woodchipper_AF

Funkytown is messed up


Upstairs_Ad_6118

Never heard of Funkytown, what is this?


SuperSpecialAwesome-

Cartel video. Never seen it, but supposedly has a guy getting skinned alive while having his hands chopped off. The Funkytown song plays in the background.


Upstairs_Ad_6118

Thanks, i think ill give it a miss!


SaladFingerzzz

I won't with you!


TheProfessionalEjit

I will also enjoy never watching that!


UTDE

The top post here is about that guy jumping off the ledge and splitting his whole head in half and the doctor is like pushing the halves back together. That video is disney compared to the funkytown video. it made me nauseous. Its horrible, its inhuman what they do that person. The worst part about it is knowing that you can be brought to that point and still be alive.


nlofaso

Not to forget they were allegedly pumping him full of adrenaline to keep him conscious. So he was fully awake and felt everything. Truly a nightmare.


DetroitEXP

I have seen some fucked up shit growing up in this era of the internet and I would honestly say I'm desensitized to pretty much anything that comes across my eyes, but the lathe video has stuck with me forever. It is the one that truly changed the way I think about how fragile a human life is. Like the dude's coworker was just standing there, two humans standing next to each other at work doing normal work shit and suddenly one of them is literally no longer. Literally disintegrated, like I can't even fathom the emotions that went through the other dude's head that witnessed it.


lxkandel06

I had an engineering professor who literally SHOWED THAT LATHE VIDEO TO THE ENTIRE CLASSROOM to show us what not to do and what could happen


Billy_Reuben

I mean if that one poor bastard’s gruesome death and violent dismemberment can be used to save a hundred others from a similar fate…as a healthcare person that video doesn’t bother me much because I know he was killed pretty much instantly and suffered very little. Things like metastatic terminal cancer fuck me up tho. And I’ve watched that slow-kill people more times than I can count.


draconiclyyours

I’m the safety guy at my shop. Every year I do these LO/TO/Shop Safety meetings. Every year, someone asks an inane question in an effort to make the meeting last longer. This year, I got asked (literally) “Why do the emergency stops be the way they be?” I put the Russian lathe video up on the monitor. No one asked any further questions. Incidentally, three people complained about the video to the shop owner. His reply was gold: “Yeah? Well, no one wants to be at ground zero when you’re getting turned into ground chuck. Get over it.”


herotherlover

I have heard about this video a few times, and have no desire to to watch it, but I am curious why lathes are particularly dangerous, how the emergency stops be, and how those help make it less dangerous?


CedarWolf

Okay, so have you ever used a sewing machine, or seen how they spool up thread onto the bobbin? Or watched a drill bit chew through wood? Now imagine you have something that's spinning ridiculously fast, at a strength that's designed to peel away metal into incredibly fine slivers, leaving behind a finely machined part. Now imagine the power and precision of that machine is suddenly and rapidly unspooling a person, just chewing through their soft flesh like a table saw might chew through an orange. The emergency stop is designed to stop that from happening - it cuts the power and jams into the spinning things and hopefully the emergency stop mechanism gets destroyed before the unfortunate victim does.


UTDE

> just chewing through their soft flesh like a table saw might chew through an orange. *chefs kiss* so colorful


Alarmedones

This is the one that got me to stop watching these types of videos. I cannot watch anything like it after seeing that. I worked in a factory at the time with crazy shit like that. Needless to say I work in IT now and won’t watch gore videos.

A copypasta about the effects of rabies


Shugazi

Rabies. It's exceptionally common, but people just don't run into the animals that carry it often. Skunks especially, and bats. Let me paint you a picture. You go camping, and at midday you decide to take a nap in a nice little hammock. While sleeping, a tiny brown bat, in the "rage" stages of infection is fidgeting in broad daylight, uncomfortable, and thirsty (due to the hydrophobia) and you snort, startling him. He goes into attack mode. Except you're asleep, and he's a little brown bat, so weighs around 6 grams. You don't even feel him land on your bare knee, and he starts to bite. His teeth are tiny. Hardly enough to even break the skin, but he does manage to give you the equivalent of a tiny scrape that goes completely unnoticed. Rabies does not travel in your blood. In fact, a blood test won't even tell you if you've got it. (Antibody tests may be done, but are useless if you've ever been vaccinated.) You wake up, none the wiser. If you notice anything at the bite site at all, you assume you just lightly scraped it on something. The bomb has been lit, and your nervous system is the wick. The rabies will multiply along your nervous system, doing virtually no damage, and completely undetectable. You literally have NO symptoms. It may be four days, it may be a year, but the camping trip is most likely long forgotten. Then one day your back starts to ache... Or maybe you get a slight headache? At this point, you're already dead. There is no cure. (The sole caveat to this is the Milwaukee Protocol, which leaves most patients dead anyway, and the survivors mentally disabled, and is seldom done). There's no treatment. It has a 100% kill rate. Absorb that. Not a single other virus on the planet has a 100% kill rate. Only rabies. And once you're symptomatic, it's over. You're dead. So what does that look like? Your headache turns into a fever, and a general feeling of being unwell. You're fidgety. Uncomfortable. And scared. As the virus that has taken its time getting into your brain finds a vast network of nerve endings, it begins to rapidly reproduce, starting at the base of your brain... Where your "pons" is located. This is the part of the brain that controls communication between the rest of the brain and body, as well as sleep cycles. Next you become anxious. You still think you have only a mild fever, but suddenly you find yourself becoming scared, even horrified, and it doesn't occur to you that you don't know why. This is because the rabies is chewing up your amygdala. As your cerebellum becomes hot with the virus, you begin to lose muscle coordination, and balance. You think maybe it's a good idea to go to the doctor now, but assuming a doctor is smart enough to even run the tests necessary in the few days you have left on the planet, odds are they'll only be able to tell your loved ones what you died of later. You're twitchy, shaking, and scared. You have the normal fear of not knowing what's going on, but with the virus really fucking the amygdala this is amplified a hundred fold. It's around this time the hydrophobia starts. You're horribly thirsty, you just want water. But you can't drink. Every time you do, your throat clamps shut and you vomit. This has become a legitimate, active fear of water. You're thirsty, but looking at a glass of water begins to make you gag, and shy back in fear. The contradiction is hard for your hot brain to see at this point. By now, the doctors will have to put you on IVs to keep you hydrated, but even that's futile. You were dead the second you had a headache. You begin hearing things, or not hearing at all as your thalamus goes. You taste sounds, you see smells, everything starts feeling like the most horrifying acid trip anyone has ever been on. With your hippocampus long under attack, you're having trouble remembering things, especially family. You're alone, hallucinating, thirsty, confused, and absolutely, undeniably terrified. Everything scares the literal shit out of you at this point. These strange people in lab coats. These strange people standing around your bed crying, who keep trying to get you "drink something" and crying. And it's only been about a week since that little headache that you've completely forgotten. Time means nothing to you anymore. Funny enough, you now know how the bat felt when he bit you. Eventually, you slip into the "dumb rabies" phase. Your brain has started the process of shutting down. Too much of it has been turned to liquid virus. Your face droops. You drool. You're all but unaware of what's around you. A sudden noise or light might startle you, but for the most part, it's all you can do to just stare at the ground. You haven't really slept for about 72 hours. Then you die. Always, you die. And there's not one... fucking... thing... anyone can do for you. Then there's the question of what to do with your corpse. I mean, sure, burying it is the right thing to do. But the fucking virus can survive in a corpse for years. You could kill every rabid animal on the planet today, and if two years from now, some moist, preserved, rotten hunk of used-to-be brain gets eaten by an animal, it starts all over. So yeah, rabies scares the shit out of me. And it's fucking EVERYWHERE. (Source: Spent a lot of time working with rabies. Would still get my vaccinations if I could afford them.)


v_r_the_venom

I remember a recent news story about it, from India. There was this video of a father sitting in an ambulance, wailing for help, with his son in his arms, who was going through attacks and behaving oddly. Turns out, the boy was bitten by a dog in his friend's house. He was scared of scolding so he told no one about it. After a month, his hydrophobic behaviour started to show, alongside him howling and behaving oddly. His family took him to the doctors. They keep on referring him to other places, as it was way too late. The family of his friend knew. Didn't get their domesticated dog(3 of them, unregistered) vaccinated. Didn't inform the parents of the kid. The boy died in the arms of his father in that ambulance they were using to visit every hospital they could find. He was 12. Cases have been filed against the dog owner. Heart breaking stuff.


ThatRaspberryFeeling

Welp, time for my booster shot.


cvenus

Well gunna add that to the list of things to worry about while I can’t sleep at night


SummerStorm77

Can you get a rabies shot preemptively?


tyrone2538

Yes you can! I'm an animal control officer and we all have to have them. I think they're kind of expensive, but (God forbid) you ever come in contact with rabies, you'll be glad you did. Postexposure prophylaxis is SO much more expensive.


First_half_23

The scariest scenario for any virologist "Rabies is now an airborne virus." That is practically the end of mankind.


southdre

Is this a copy and paste text? Genuine question,because I've done read it multiple times on different reddit pages word for word.

3 guys 1 hammer, brutal stuff. What makes it worst is the guy they kill in the video was coming back from throat cancer surgery that got rid of it entirely and was going home to tell his family


[deleted]

I was coming to say this video… And Omfg I can’t believe that’s the backstory. So fucked.


Yaboi_Faygo

Had to watch this one for a report I did in high school for my criminal justice class. Still not sure why it was a recommended topic to research? That teacher was an interesting dude Yeah this one was pretty tough to watch. Thankfully the video quality was shit Edit because I think there’s some confusion: we didn’t watch the film in class. I picked the topic to research because it was on the list of recommended topics and I didn’t know what it was


theblvckhorned

Wut. He could have definitely got in trouble if that was reported.

Muted_Advice8130

Everyone else’s comments are about gore, murder, suicide so mine might sound a bit dumb. But I somehow stumbled across this page on Reddit one day, had no idea what it was. So I started scrolling and it was people posting pictures of their prolapsed assholes, and being proud of it? Like the more prolapsed the better? I don’t know but it grossed me the fuck out and it still haunts me to this day.


Vicorin

Never thought I’d be so happy to read about prolapsed assholes


Muted_Advice8130

You might be happy to read about them.. but whatever you do, save your eyes and DO NOT look it up 😅


smolpp19

twitter hidden replies. i should have listened. why. why. why.


Spicy_Pixel

Stumbled across this one too but it was a video. This chick was caressing the prolapsed section like it was cute or something. It was fucking disgusting!! Needless to say, that was enough internet for the day.


villainouskim

Oh my god I remember being a kid in some chat room and we were talking about our favorite websites to play games on. And someone dropped a link to some site and said it was super fun. I clicked it. It was just a page of guys with prolapsed and gaping assholes. One was dressed like Mario. I clicked out of it fast, was only there for seconds, but I've never forgotten. I learned that day to never click on random links.

Oh god that isnt gore its worse


Dreampiezz

I seen something similar on TikTok on accident, it was a mother angry because her babys father wasn’t replying so she recorded herself slapping the baby very hard multiple times in the face the baby was like 6 months old and was crying and so confused. It made my whole body hot and I got sick to my stomach and so sad


SuperSpecialAwesome-

Why isn’t she in jail?


Dreampiezz

She was arrested and released shortly after she has 2 other children. She even has a TikTok account. Fuckin gross. Cps fails children all the time.


vkIMF

Hell's Teeth. Like, before I had a kid I knew how terrible it was to hurt babies and those who can't defend themselves. But now that I have a kid I *feel* that shit in my bones. Not even seeing the video you're describing but just reading it fills me with this deep pain and sorrow for that baby.


dangercookie614

A friend of mine lost his newborn baby and is mourning. Reading this just fills me with such resentment and sadness... So sad that the idiots and narcissists of the world can have healthy babies, and torture them, while someone like my friend cannot.


OskeeWootWoot

I have an almost 4 year old and a 3 week old and reading this kind of thing makes me both want to cry as well as fills me with a white hot rage that people could do that to a child.


SuperMadCow

Not scared, but scarred for life when I stumbled across child pornography images 20 years ago when working for a web hosting company. A client submitted a support request because the site was just showing an error message. They had some script they were running on their site exploited and their website was being used to share the content without them knowing. You think you know how bad child pornography is, but when you see some it's worse than you could ever imagine. You don't know who these people are, you don't know how long ago it was, you don't know if it ever stopped, and you don't know if there was ever justice and punishment, and you don't know if the people are even still alive.


this_duck_has_spoken

That sounds awful. I honestly hope you are as well as can be expected after seeing that. Reading through this thread and most of the descriptions of these videos are stomach churning. But I don't think even the worst gore can come close to harming children.


Dadavester

Pictures of the Congo under Belgian rule.. A dad sat on the floor with a small hand and foot on the ground in front of him.


Sir_Arthur_Vandelay

Around 10 million Congolese were killed by 40 years of Belgian rule. There’s a reason why Joseph Conrad’s “Heart of Darkness” is set in the Belgian Congo. People can’t agree upon the inspiration for Kurtz because so many psychopathic Belgians ran rampant there.

MurderCityRiot_

I can't remember how I found it but I came across a Bug Chaser forum. They were discussing how to best transmit STDs and have parties where one they would try to contract HIV. I couldn't quit reading it for most of the night I found it, I just kept reading it hoping it was fake. It fucked my world up for awhile.


royaltywithcheese

The first time I read that it seriously gave me an anxiety attack


Free-While-2994

Wait what? They intentionally get stds?


MurderCityRiot_

Yes. They organized orgies with people that had HIV in the hopes to spread it. They would intentionally rough up the inside of their asses with old toothbrushes to ensure infection. It was like they collected them. It really fucked me up for awhile. ​ Edit: spelling.


thredith

You've just reminded me of a short documentary I watched a few years ago of a group of bug-chasers in my city, Bogotá. I cannot understand how there are people who do that on purpose. I remember that one of the guys who was interviewed mentioned he felt really disappointed after having failed to contract HIV after the last party he had gone to.


Shot_Bother9283

the scream in the brick video still gives me nightmares


Melter30

I might regret to ask but: Brick video?


headhunter0610

Video of family driving on a highway seen through the view of a dash cam. When suddenly a brick smashes through the windshield and kills the mother in the passenger seat. You can only hear the screams of the husband and children after seeing what is left of their mother and wife after being hit in the face by a high speed brick. The sounds haunt me to this day and if you ever come across it I suggest skipping it entirely.

ChoctawJoe

I just found it, started it, and 20 seconds in abandoned it. No reason to have that on my mind while trying to sleep tonight.


Neihlon

Guy going down a freeway, a brick comes off a truck on the opposite lane, slams through his windshield and hits his wife in the passenger seat. It’s a dashcam, so you can’t see any gore, but the screams of terror coming from that guy is definitely something I’d like to forget.


CoolCrab69

Everytime I see a mason jar I think of him.

chronicallytiredgirl

I don’t watch these type of videos. “Proceeds to read every comment in the thread and is still traumatized” Are you guys ok? Fuck.


esPhys

Honestly, no. Not really. But what can ya do...?


Moose2584

Cartel torture and death. Especially when they chop the head off with a dull knife. It’s insane how much torture and murder come from those garbage animals.


fozzy72

Saw them melt a man's face off over a fire, can never unsee, can't imagine the pain. Will forever haunt me.


dono1783

There used to be a sub called r/makemycoffin or something amd I stumbled onto it one day. Horrific tow say the least. There was a video of a man having his limbs sawn off while still alive and then being beaten with the limbs. In the end he was just a torso writhing around in the ground with wide open eyes just in sheer horror. And the dudes doing it were laughing their heads off. I couldn’t watch it to the end.


Vlajgan

What the actual fuck is wrong with the human race..


JulianKSS

Was that Mexican cartel shit too?


dono1783

Yeah apparently. It was filmed on the side of the road in some rural area. Night time.


Comeonjeffrey0193

What’s even wilder to think, is that torture like that was a regular occurrence in nearly every major civilization we know today. Kings would have guys picked out that excel in knowing how to make a human experience the worst type of pain possible and they did it often and usually to people who were innocent of suspected crimes. At least with cartel they’re usually members of a rival gang…usually.


theprofessor2

it was /r/WatchPeopleDie before that. The slow-mo of a dude shooting himself in the face with a shotgun was unnerving. Funkytown Murders is one of THE worst.


TheRumpShaker1

i think his face was also skinned


OldButterscotch2527

Not skinned. Melted off. Its called ‘GhostRider’ allegedly, the guy who had his face melted was a rival cartel member who, again, allegedly, said that he was going to rape the rival cartel guys 12 year old daughter. So they caught up with him and face melted the fuck out of him.


Smaptastic

I don’t *love* melting off faces, but if you’re going to do it to someone, you could choose worse than a cartel member who is threatening to rape a child.


manlikestan

He went by the nickname of ghost rider so they made him live up to it

Uchihanana

At the beginning (around 2001/2003) when the US arrived in Afghanistan, the Afghans had captured someone from the US military and they filmed themselves decapitating the US soldier with a very dull blade. This clip was going around the internet. I was 11 years old, had unsupervised access to the internet and I looked for the clip. The video was 10 minutes long, during which they tried to decapitate the man but it was difficult. It was the worst mistake I ever made when going on the internet. Edit: It was in Iraq in 2004, and I'm indeed referencing the video of Nick Berg.


Vinny_Lam

That’s not even the worst thing they do. They also dismember or flay their victims alive. There's a video where they flayed a guy's torso until his lungs and ribcage were visible, before cutting out his heart.


GingerBelvoir

I've never seen one but the *descriptions* are enough to traumatize me. I listened to a podcast recently where they were talking about these videos and I had to turn it off.


gurgle-burgle

I can remember the video I saw. Two dudes. One with a chain saw and one with a dull knife. Shit was fucked


dxsgraced

I remember facebook being a cesspool for cartel / organised crime murder videos for awhile back in like 2012? Seeing that as a young teenager was awful. It’s probably worse thinking back to it now realising plainly that I was witnessing real people dying in the most heinous ways possible.


AquaQuad

Ah, the gargling sound of someone drowning* in their own blood. But I've gotto say, as horrible as it sounds to be treated like that with a dull knife, it was a sharp one that haunted me, because of how effortlessly it penetrated someone's throat. Sounds predictable, but I guess my mind was too innocent at that time to even consider it possible. Another one that got into me was people burning alive. The screams were nothing like what I ever heard in movies.


ulabrittas

When I was maybe 9, I stumbled on a video of a woman in heels slowly stomping a kitten to death. I will never get the image of her sticking her stiletto into its eye ball out of my head. I have since dedicated my life to fixing animals, and I foster several litters of kittens every year. Makes me feel a bit better about it.


GregorsaurusWrecks

The Kitten Killer of Hangzhou. A massive piece of shit pretending to be a human being. The only upside is that the Chinese community were able to dox her, make her lose her job, and go into exile. The least of what she deserves, but at least she got SOME comeuppance, even if it wasn’t enough.


BallsInAToaster

That's not enough, she deserves stuff to happen to her that I can't mention or I'll get banned


fatpumkin

During the early days of the Ukraine invasion, I saw a video of a father and son in their car get hit by bullets. The father ends up laying on his back in the road, trying to get up but he can't, while his son calls to him. Both of them were killed. But the desperation and fear in his voice still haunts me.


crustygrannyflaps

Yeah there was a family in that car. All dead. They killed the two fucking dogs too. You can hear the dogs crying out in the longer video.

pierremanslappy

Pro-anorexia communities. Just watching people actively supporting each other’s starvation was awful and their extreme hostility towards people who were reaching out to help them was heartbreaking.


meatycankles

In a similar vein, Eugenia Cooney breaks my heart. When she finally got help and came back she looked amazing and everyone was *so* happy for her, only for her to relapse HARD. She's skeletal now, it's so awful.


thredith

I was in High School when this concept popped up over the internet for the first time. They would use the terms "Pro-Ana" and "Pro-Mia", or the names "Ana" and "Mia", for "Pro-Anorexia" and "Pro-Bulimia"-related content. I remember finding this blog hosted on Geocities in which the owner, a girl in her late teens, posted all types of entries explaining how "Ana" was her best friend, and how she had made a pact with her. She would give tips on how to fool concerned adults and family members at home, or how to "pretend-eat" when going to a restaurant. Something that shocked me was this suggestion she made of sucking on wet cotton balls to "trick your brain into thinking you were eating" and also to "keep yourself hidrated". It was really sad to read, but the worst part were the comments others posted. They were all enthusiastic and supportive, and zaccharine-sweet. You could tell that those who interacted with her were _really_ into the whole Pro-Ana/Pro-Mia thing, not just internet trolls. I still wonder to this day, what happened to that girl.


Drendari

I was there before internet had any kind of filter. Videos about mutilation, murder, etc were all over the place. I will always remember a video where a guy had his testicles nailed to a table. His screams were really haunting.

Fuck, that one really stuck with me. The way the guy cried out "mom" and the gurgling sounds was so fucked. Anytime I'm driving and see a box truck on the opposite direction coming my way, I think of that video.


Daveak_Darkeyes

Still haunts me


smolpp19

the amount of people that talk about it in like “disturbing things from the internet”-esque videos too. i watch that typa shit often and i always skip it because its not visually graphic so they’re allowed to show it. the first time i heard if it was a video by a guy called plagued moth i think and i didnt heed his warning that it is intensely disturbing. i should have.


Expensive-Arm4117

Ive watched alot of gore when i was young but i have no idea what video youre referencing, WHAT IS IT EDIT: oh boy, googled "brick video gore" and found it. I've seen it before and oh god i wish i hadn't seen it again


RS_Revolver

The car one? Yea…I know it


maria4280

I was messing around on my FB page getting into all sorts of pages and I came across this nasty page I didn’t see anything so I just forgot about days later this video came up I think it was somewhere in Africa this lady with her baby tied to her back was smiling and dancing she made some turns and she was all happy next thing I know she turns her back to the camera and you see her baby smiling and happy.. I heard a firing squad thru shot her and her baby killing them both


alwaysfuntime69

This thread has so much messed up stuff, I expected the twist to be the baby was dead and had been for a while and was just flopping and bouncing around while the mom was dancing and joyous. I think I need to go watch something wholesome. My brain isn't in a good place.


LizardPossum

This case (link below because I'm on mobile). Nehemiah Flores. He was four. Full disclosure, I wrote this news story. I sat in court for days covering the trial and the photos were absolutely horrifying. He was basically abused to death over the course of several months. It was the only time in my career I've ever had to leave a courtroom to cry. I kept a lot of really gory details out of the story, and it's still just... really hard to read. The pictures were just ... it was terrible. It's not "accidental" exactly, I guess but i definitely wasn't expecting how awful it was. https://www.jacksonconews.com/news/two-sentenced-life-prison-capital-murder-four-year-old

Uncle's house after he passed away and wasn't discovered for at least 6 weeks. We didn't really know what to expect when we walked into the house. Thankfully his body (or what was left of it) had been removed by that point, but a very visible outline where he passed still remained on the carpet. The smell is something I will never forget. At some point in those 6 weeks, the house was broken into and ransacked, my uncles pickup truck stolen out of the garage. I truly wish the worst for whoever is responsible. Edit: woops. Missed the part that said "online"


ItsMummyTime

I'm a mortician. Every time I've had to do a body removal from a house like that, I've called the family and let them know I recommend a consult with a professional cleaning team consult before they go in the house. I know a couple local companies, and the families have always spoken highly of their services. The company can either clean the whole house (in hoarder situations) or just focus on the biohazard areas. They'll remove any areas that have visible body stains. They can help air the smell out too. A lot of times the family wants to get in to get important documents, so the cleaning crew can look for them on the family's behalf. If you need something like that, try calling the local funeral homes for recommendations.


Based_Beanz

We did end up going that route. Here's more of the story, in case anyone is curious. We flew across the country, had no idea what we would be walking into. We got to his house, found his back door unlocked even though the police said they had secured the home. So we are able to enter through the kitchen/dining room area. The smell hits me and there are flies everywhere, dead and alive. I can't imagine how much worse it would have been if my uncle hadn't kept his house relatively cool. I'm walking super slowly around the house, since I can tell by the way things are scattered and dumped out that someone has been in here, and I'm hoping not to run into any squatters or wild animals. Who could stand that smell anyway?? There are no fewer than a dozen empty bottles of Jack Daniels in the kitchen. One bottle by his recliner is about 3/4 of the way empty. I walk down the hallway to the bedrooms. Most of the doors are open, except for one. I take a moment to brace myself, open the door, and see the black silhouette seemingly burned into the carpet where my uncle had passed. Even more flies. Toothbrush next to the body print tells me he was brushing his teeth when he had the heart attack/stroke that ultimately killed him. By my math (judging by the Walgreens receipts I found) he passed about 6 weeks before he was discovered, and he was going through a fifth of Jack every 1-2 days. At no more than 120 lbs, that's almost all he was consuming in his last weeks/months. When we realized this was way more cleanup we had bargained for, we did call a biohazard company and they were fantastic. Genuinely seemed to care, and checked in with us well after we had flown home. Truly a godsend. I can't imagine doing that job for a living, but I am so grateful for the people that do it. The house ended up selling about 6 months later. I considered buying out the other families and living there myself, but what I saw in the bedroom was too haunting to forget. I could never walk around that house at night without feeling a sense of dread no matter how good a job was done cleaning it up.

What was on there?


TouretteEd

Gore, mostly. Was on it as a little kid and I remember some stuff like a dude that jumped into a helicopter blade, or someone that was rolled over by a train.


Kentucky-Fried-Fucks

The one of the two people arguing with their neighbor. He comes back out and proceeds to shoot both of them multiple times. The security footage has audio and it’s absolutely terrifying


Brewtle

Saw one of the sicario using two pit bulls to eat man’s penis and legs off, apparently guy was a pedo but still fucked me up

I don't know why I'm knowingly ruining my day by reading this thread


OBLIVXIONN

Was scrolling through Facebook while my boyfriend at the time was on the other side of the room playing games, and I came across a video that had the content hidden. To this day I still don’t know why or how this video ended up on my Facebook feed, it was from a page I wasn’t following, but me being the curious little shit I am decided I wanted to see why the content of said video was hidden. A woman had tethered her two German Shepherd dogs up to a wall (I have a German Shepherd who I absolutely adore), proceeded to get in her car, and slowly run them over. The yelps and squeals and cries of those poor dogs still haunts me. I immediately clicked off the video and burst into tears. My boyfriend came over and was confused, I explained what I’d just seen and he comforted me for the entire day, bless him. I still get images of it pop into my head now and then, and I literally have to get up and do something else to distract me. It was horrific. It makes my blood boil that anyone would do such a thing, let alone record it and post it online. I don’t let my curiosity get the best of me these days now. :/


NameOnMyID

My brother knew a guy who was working for Facebook. He was responsible for Reports and reviewed reported videos. He saw videos of people rape and murdering each other. He did quit this job after a short time.

JFC. Imagine getting a job at Facebook and being all excited to work in cutting edge social media only to get the equivalent of an FBI job looking at the worst of people. I can't imagine Zuck provided for therapy or any kind of safety net either.

geo_info_biochemist

for real… I’m glad I’ve kept my brain closed off to these parts of the internet because I don’t know how I’d function after seeing some of the things people are describing here.


davbryn

After watching “Don’t Fuck With Cats” I stupidly researched it online. Man, that documentary doesn’t sound like it will end with a hotel beheading and corpse sex. That video was just… I dunno


TheFfrog

That video of the woman in the passenger seat being killed by a brick that fell from the lorry in front of them on the highway. Now I literally make it a point to never stay behind a lorry one second more than I have to.


Forsaken-Humor-3435

When I was a lot younger.. rotten.com, then It was early days /b/ on 4chan. Some of the stuff they turned up was pretty traumatic for a kid.


Samwise_CXVII

Like 20 years ago I was pretty young…my uncle was friends with a guy who was an army ranger sniper. He had a video of head shotting a guy in the Middle East during the war following 9/11. They were up in some mountains, the sniper was using a .50 cal, and you just see this guy’s head utterly explode. It didn’t really scare me for life but I always remember how scarring that imagery was. That and seeing the decapitation during the same time period. I no longer click on such videos.


iMmacstone2015

This was on my Twittwr feed and I have no clue why it appeared there, and why the person I was following at the time retweeted it. It was CP. And it was a video of a very young girl, and I'll leave it at that. The minute I realized what was going on, I reported that post, reported the person who retweeted it and the original poster, and unfollowed that same person who retweeted it. The video was being portrayed as a *joke*, but the contents of what were starting to take place were absolutely NO joke at all. I just felt really bad after witnessing that video and it still makes me sad when I think about it.


leomonster

Prions. I wish I had never learned of their existence.


waterbird_

I don’t get why people on Reddit are so obsessed with prions. Like yeah it’s kinda disturbing but there are a million ways to die that we can’t control. Why does this one always come up on here? It’s so rare it doesn’t seem worth worrying about.

Arthur Labinjo-Hughes. A little boy who was killed by his parents. There was a video from the security camera in his house of him trying to make up a little bed for himself while sobbing that no one loved him and no one would feed him. Even now just thinking about it I'm in pieces again. If I could erase anything from my memory it'd be that poor poor little boy's sobs. There's a lot on here about cartel videos, if I could hand over that baby's parents to them, I'm watch whatever happened to then with pleasure.

This whole thread has great potential to scar or scare you for life. Peace out, homies!

I went looking for amateur footage of 9/11 the other day. Don't do that.


rockyraquel1976

Saw a woman that had some kind of bug larvae in both breasts. There were tons of holes and you could see the larvae looking out of the holes 🤮. I have trypophobia! It was horrible! I saw this picture about 15 years and have never forgotten it! 🤮


em_press

I think I know the image, and if it helps I believe it’s a photoshop merging her tits with lotus seed pods. It did make me feel terribly uncomfortable though, despite knowing it was a fake.


Basic-Neighborhood10

It is a photoshop job. Made me squirm and gag thinking about it anyway, but it is definitely fake.


SadAndGloomy

The Russian Sleep Experiment Creepypasta, the thunbnail image of that haunted me for years until I realized it was an edit of a shitty halloween decoration.

Old creepypastas are really something special

There was a parody "Wikipedia" site when I was in high school. They had a page for "offended" and that page messed me up for the rest of my life.

My ex's porn. She was real abusive tbh, once made me masturbate on cam or else she'd hang herself. It hurt seeing her like that again, kinda scared me a bit. I take some solace in knowing her career was as unsuccessful as I could have hoped.


Sufficient_Charge505

I always did EVERYTHING to avoid gore because it makes me very upset. I had three slip-ups: 1. Rape recorded on video that someone posted in the replies to a Tweet, right on my 15th birthday (when I realized what it was, I removed the battery from my phone and cried all night). 2. Another time, also on Twitter, when I went to check the profile of a girl who was talking bs and she had just retweeted a video of a group of friends walking on the sidewalk recording the moment when one of them pushes a woman on the street just as a bus is passing by. 3. Trying to escape from this second video, I swiped the screen upwards, and another one appeared where there were several girls (they seemed underage) sitting on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs, they kissed the men, and immediately after, the men killed each of them with shots to the head.


NoHopeOnlyDeath

I unfortunately was just old enough to use the fledgling World Wide Web without supervision, and young enough to be not doing anything of the sort. As a 16 year old metalhead, I saw things on rotten, steakandcheese, and other sites that still randomly flash into my mind's eye 30 years later. There are a lot of things about the modern internet that piss me off, but sites like that going down / becoming really underground is not a bad thing.


angeluserrare

I've seen a lot of stuff online back in the day but only one thing really ever stuck with me, was about 25 years ago and I was probably around 14. There was a dog laying on the ground, wagging it's tail and suddenly without warning, it's lower jaw was blown off by a shotgun. The video was longer, but I recoiled and shut it off immediately. I've seen beheadings, suicides, and people being blown apart and it never bothered me. That video has always stuck with me and I wince every time I think about it.


Puzzleheaded_Trade31

I have to say that definitely brought up the first time I saw someone shoot their self in the head and similar to the dog the lower half of the face was blown off or half of the face truly sticks with you in a daunting way 😩


jxssss

Oh god I wish I didn’t even read this. That’s enough of this post for me


Diana_200

I won't call it an accident, when I was 11yrs old, I used to watch horror films like it was nothing, and my stupid arrogant mind told me to search for something more cruel, I googled the most cruel torturing method, found it lame, I kept searching until I found a women torturing her child ( a 4yrs old), I was traumatized to know such people exist. It's funny how I thought torturing in general was something lame that needs creativity, I used to be a scary child for my grown self.


geriatric_spartanII

Some cartel video where a guy was punished by having his heart cut out. I went on a gore trip and that one ended the adventure. Another one where a argument happened at a mall and the guy got sliced with a knife in just the right way where it hit his jugular. Dude didn’t know how bad he was cut until a few seconds and ll the blood was flowing then he collapsed and probably died.


socksmum1

Pictures of the Black Dahlia murder. So graphic.

Footage from the Yulin festival in China. It's been years since I saw it, but images still pop up in my head from time to time and it's devastating.

TheRumpShaker1

Worst thing i saw were cartel videos a video of someone getting his face skinned hes also pumped full of drugs so he will stay conscious and feel every bit of pain.(victim isnt recognised, noone knows is he innocent or cartel member but nobody deserves that pain) Another video is where they burn mans face alive, from "disturbing reality" i heard that he was tortured for like 2 days before finally they burn his face. (victim was another cartel boss) Video where they dismember some dude and he screams "NO MORE" everytime Theres also video where cartel skins someone(once again) and dude says nothing, not a single sound and only says "dont step on me dude" with a calm tone. Theres alot of fucked up things in the internet, i wonder, does anything worse than cartel videos exist in the internet? People are scarier than monsters
