Whether it's reporting on conflicts abroad and political divisions at home, or covering the latest style trends and scientific developments, New York Times video journalists provide a revealing and unforgettable view of the world. It's all the news that's fit to watch.
In October, we pieced together 30 videos to understand how the Las Vegas Massacre unfolded: ruclips.net/video/krr4u6uGdzc/видео.html
It was an *ARMS SALE* gone wrong... and the feds were in on it... thus the cover up ;-)
Man you crazies get here fast.
That's cause we are the only ones that seem to care about what actually happened. If we are wrong what harm have we caused? Don't you think we deserve to know what happened?
Sure, but I can tell you True Pundit doesn't have the answer.
Of course the most important video was left out, the hallway video showing who went in and out of the room. Since his room was at the end of the hall it would have been center view of the security camera. The truth always adds up, official stories never do.
21 bags and he didn't change clothes
How the fk do you know he didn't change clothes? That is beyond stupid. Maybe, just maybe, he liked a certain style? Didn't change clothes??? You're a CT!
the video footage above showing his attire over a 7 day period.......
You can't tell if it's the same clothes. I have 10 long sleeve shirts that I wear. They're all the same and it makes for less decisions.
Billy Lzer that’s funny 😂😂😂
ThePigKing, no he is not only talking about the clothes. It looks like he is trying to imply that this whole thing is fake. Could be... but ... he is not only talking about clothes
Imagine seeing yourself in the CCTV footage, learning you walked right past him and never knew.
@Mxtthxxww That's assuming every single person that walked passed him went to the concert.
bobina321 let alone dropped off a bunch of guns to his room 💀
Then don’t imagine it
That’s why I always say you just attack people randomly because you never know
That is even more scary
Everyone talks about 61 dead but I can’t believe he injured 700 people with like a over 1k bullets, means most bullets you hear in this video made contact😱. Both are insane numbers
He wasn't the only shooter that's why. This guy was involved in the massacre but he was not the only shooter. The lvpd changed their official story so many times and msm did as well.
@@chrisgrieve7735 Take the drugs my guy.
Doesn't even seem logistically possible. I wonder what really happened.
@@chrisgrieve7735 Of the hundreds of videos with audio of the gunfire, why only 14 volleys with 10-30 seconds between if there were multiple shooters?
Were the shooters taking turns? there is 0 video evidence of multiple shooters.
Why only 1100 rounds in 10 minutes if there were multiple gunmen and why no overlap of gunfire?
It's because thousands of people were huddled up together on the ground and many of those bullets traveled through multiple victims. Crazy tbh
It feels like nobody even remembers this event anymore. Rest In Peace to many of the victims. 🙏🙏🙏
Cause it's 2017, like 4 years later everyone of the victims is forgotten, how sad, these lives are always going to be precious and remembered. 🕊🕊
🙏🙏🙏
this dude was a undercover fbi agent trying to sell weapon to some gangster ( he had camera set in and outside of his hotel to try to catch them in action )
and when they found out he was undercover they shot him and started shooting into the crowd ( that is why a lot of witness herd multiple gun shot from different location )
the fbi cover up the story that is why it was ONLY on the news for a short time
There are many many many events to remember
If he was black, no one would forget.
Imagine how bad the hotel staff feel.. they literally helped him without even knowing.

@Ryan Dowsett some witnesses said there was more than one shooter and it was coming from the crowd. And those people either had a fatal car crash or were killed or commited suicide.
I think he thought he could fight his way out.
We’re all scared of shootings now. Was in Vegas today and everyone was in panic over false reports of an active shooter. We need a solution to reduce these horrific events. 🥺😭

The fact that the FBI didn't find motive and just closed the investigation should set off alarms
My thoughts exactly
there was nothing to find he left nothing n he’s dead?
oh here we go again with the conspiracy theories. Sometimes people don't need motives, he wanted to commit suicide and he wanted to take others down with him because it would be fun, thats his motive

I was in LV a week later and took the time to visit the makeshift memorial at the Las Vegas sign. Very moving. Oct.11 I was at the "D" downtown watching the Indians-Yankees game and a guy sat down next to me and we started talking. He said he was just so relieved to get an evening off of work to relax, his work had been very busy lately. He said he worked at the Las Vegas morgue. Suddenly I was more interested in talking to this stranger than watching the ballgame. One of the things he told me was that a lot more of the people died from being trampled to death than from being shot.
All sources attribute gunshot wounds as the cause of each of the 60 deaths
Anyone else surprised how low quality the resolution is for a security camera in a casino?
And who said anything about 4k? Hyperbole much?
@O R 720p is enough
The video on the casino floor is likely 720p or higher.
Anybody else unsurprised that the more pertinent questions are always two or three scrolls down?
They probably use low definition to cover large areas, and high def for areas where they need to see precisely what's going on, like the table games. cashiers, etc
Gamblers especially at casinos look like the most empty human beings I have ever seen
Yeah I used to think gambling in Vegas was super fun, but one look inside the casinos looking at all those gamblers who are dead inside, i understood the reality
@@prasan7th I don’t understand gambling. It’s hard for me to part with my hard earned money, especially when I know the odds are against me
yeah. when i heard gambling 8 hours through the night, i realised it is such an empty, lonely thing. i will never do it. it feels like something one would do when dead on the inside.
@@colatf2 it's an addiction sadly.
If you do it once and win your gonna continue.
I mean there’s absolutely nothing wrong with gambling a little bit here and there. But gambling all night long and spending all your money is different . It’s definitely an addiction.

Almost two weeks after the uvalde school incident, I'm going through some of these videos, trying for some understanding, or sense.

Do they still curse Sheldon Adelson for ordering this hit?
One of the strangest parts of all this is how calmly and lethargically he seems to be bringing all the guns up to his room and going about his business for the few days before the shootings. If you told me that his main crime was that he fell asleep on the floor of the lobby and was disturbing other customers by snoring I would not find that hard to believe based on the CCTV evidence.
I thought the same thing, if it was me I wouldn’t let anyone near my bags if it had weapons in them I would freak out and immediately grab them back.
100% psychopath
The strangest part of this is how he was actually able to pull this off without being caught. What does this hotel have a completely new staff every single day???
None of people at the front desk noticed this guy constantly leaving the hotel empty handed, then coming back to the hotel with multiple bags when the very first day he already brought more bags than ONE person would need? Do they not have ANYONE monitoring cameras? Room service didn’t think it was weird that dude had over a dozen bags in his room before he started completely denying their service? Valet workers are usually stood at the entrance and you mean to tell me NONE of them noticed that the same exact guy was constantly leaving the hotel empty handed then coming bag with multiple suitcases over the course of a week?
No one can tell me they didn’t recognize the man, the human brain doesn’t forget a face, especially that quick. And no one can tell me they didn’t notice him seeing that he has gotten service from them multiple times, had conversations, and tipped them. Idk this is weird to me.
What do the people that work at the hotel have the attention span and analyzation skills of a 3 year old? How did hotel security not notice any of this, it’s literally their job.
@@mrzazzaable wow that is very far fetched and insane, such a memorable delusioned comment, thank you

I think this might just be the most chilling video on all of RUclips. Like it is so well made and at the same time, its so disturbing and horrible what happened.
To all you people thinking the hotel should have noticed......a hotel like this has thousands of rooms and thousands of employees. These are MASSIVE operations.
They are not setup to notice if a person arrives multiple times and takes a lot of luggage up.
Besides, that just wasn't considered unusual before this occurred. Even today, hotels don't have ANY way to know what is inside someone's luggage.
Hotels are not like airports. Yet.

@@pythomas29 you are right. Monday morning quarterbacking because they or we feel powerless so we have to find someone to blame.

I don’t necessarily believe it was an inside job, I’m not a conspiracy theorist. But there is some evidence of two shooters that’s never been mentioned, it’s kind of odd.
It's strange how when this shooting happened the main stream media flocked to it and were on it 24/7 but now no one talkes about it. It's crazy how footage from the attack you can see multiple shots being shot at once despite him being the only shooter. It's astonishing that no motive was ever found, even years later and how their was no follow up to on of the biggest mass shootings in us history. His brother in press interviews even claimed that it made no sense on why he did it.
I went to Las Vegas just last week, and these videos of the Las Vegas tragedy popped up on my recommended after like 4 years.

None of those suitcases would hold half the guns they found. Even if disassembled. This is a fantasy.

Unfortunately the fact that nobody ever really talks about it or brings it up underlines a very sad realization that people in America are all too familiar with this type of attack. It happens incredibly often to the point where people are starting to disregard these attacks as "just another one". It's almost as if people feel it's not even newsworthy anymore. It's scary.
It’s sad!Imagine how we the victims feel not knowing why, we have no answers and probably never will.
All that luggage he kept bringing into the hotel and nobody became suspicious.
And for one guy. That's all kinds of suspicious. One person alone doesn't not need all that luggage.
he gambled a lot,ppl think he bring money in suitcases
Don't you think these bellhops bring a lot of bags in, all day, every day? They wouldn't be focused on the number one guy brings over the course of a week.
He bribed. Im sure.
At a hotel like the mandalay, with hundreds of guests a day, how do you think people would keep a tally?
Totally normal to see one guy have an entire house packed in suitcases… hotel staff should have at least been a little skeptical about why this guy had so many bags.
its still possible as there are different valets and staff, plus they have to look out for thousands of other people so it very hard to say
He had a ton of money from real estate, money was not an issue. People tried to reach out to him in nice ways but he rejected them. It does seem that loneliness was the root cause, but he didn't know how to fix this, so he hated the whole human race and inflicted as much pain as possible- if only someone could have gotten through. It seems very likely he had a bad childhood which made it tough to connect with others.
he was always described as a loner way back from his school classmates. it's not that, we will never know the real reason. if there is an afterlife maybe we can ask him lol
his father was a bank robber
His father was a bank robber, and the police found CP on his computer. The shooter's brother was also a creep. He definitely grew up in a troubled household where a lot of messed up things happened
So they didn’t think it was sus that he carried 21 bags for a few days
I don't think anyone at the time really cared
Spencer Plays Gamez but wouldn’t u think thats weird? Or am I crazy?
Very valid point, this is exactly what I thought, an elderly guy alone bringing jn so many bags🤔🤔
People sometimes live in hotels or like dude in thread said he could of had different employees carry his bag at different times.
It’s not like they were keeping tabs on him.
Not just the biggest, the strangest shooting.

Same day OJ was paroled so online people were saying that OJ was shooting up the arena and 3 hotels had gunmen - Mandalay Bay, Luxor and Excalibur. So much confusion and chaos. Why he did this we'll probably never know. I will say Mandalay was quick to get the signs for multiple floors down, remove it from the elevator options and if you go in there to shop or play at the Casino, you're treated differently from guests, even though you're still supporting Mandalay with your business. He had wanted to shoot at a concert in Chicago that summer but didn't. It seems like he had numbers in mind it's just the...why that is really scary not to know.
@@sotnas9797 just off the top of my head, someone who's not a psychopath and actually has regard for human life? The only thing that makes sense is being the most notorious killer to date, baring in mind he also shot at the airports jet fuel storage and clipped a tank there.
Remember, evil is always in the shadows even when you least expect it. If you sense something weird is happening, don't let ur guard down.
no mention of his various ties to certain organizations, prior employments... much more to this story...
I still find it so confusing that no one at the casino found it weird, that a guy staying on his own. Brought over 20 suitcases/bags to his room
you dont think about until its too late
He tipped them cash. They were motivated to mind their own business.
There was nobody counting all his suitcases.
Yet he only used a couple ars lol

Different people were on duty at different times of the day and night. That's why he brought his stash in stages. I am assuming that hotels are keeping better track of the number of bags people bring into the hotel and hopefully watch videos on security cameras looking for potential trouble. Its too bad the people have to die before businesses use their heads.
Good thing my dad worked morning shift. R.I.P to all the people who died 😥
Nicholas Bronzan that’s lucky man
Did you come here from that 911 video from 6 years ago but recommend today?
i did.
LaughItUp Galaxy me too
LaughItUp Galaxy maybe...
This was a military operation. Strange how the gunfire sounded EXACTLY like a m240b and not the ar15s he supposedly used.
I think his motive was basically, he wanted to die he want to gamble everything he had, and then wanted to die with a last shooting so he’d be known infamously
I got lucky here, I was literally leaving the area as this began
Edit: to people saying I’m lying, how hard is it to believe I was driving away from this festival and heard popping noises?

you're really lucky dude. this shooting was so sad when I heard about it almost 2 years back. horrible

I always wonder how many times he crossed paths with some of his his victims in the lead up? Some of them might have been at the same hotel... very chilling
I had traveled out with my daughter and her boyfriend. We spent a few hours at Excalibur and were curious at all the folks dressed in country western attire crossing the street to the concert area. We were all very tired and I nearly held us over 1 more day. I’m grateful we left back to California. Had we stayed in that area or even somehow went to the event...
I woke up 1 am and saw the breaking news. Didn’t have the full story yet and by later that day the magnitude of the horror unleashed hit my family hard. The evil men are capable of, that men do is appalling.

This is just so so deeply heartbreakingly tragic 😢💔 these poor souls just heading out to a concert to enjoy themselves & being dealt such horror scares me the thought of my little girls growing up in this world 😢 rest in piece 🥺💔💔💔
Why is it APRIL and I’m only seeing this footage now?
I assume it goes to investigators first. Even after it goes to the media it takes a while to piece all the footage together and for the NYT to do their own digging in to the sequence of events. This video was more than just raw footage, but rather a detailed summary of his movements throughout the week.
I know me too
It's a really difficult time consuming job,that might have something to do with it
I assume you watched the RUclips HQ incident too?
🤔
Why didn't they show him going to the suitcase store. I mean who has 20 suitcases at home
emma I do 🙂

Wiko Saputra lmao
It’s insanity the amount of guns you can buy in America, that’s so bizarre!
Some in the staff must’ve wondered why he had the need for so many suitcases.
They had the keys, they could have made a visit while he was away.
It’s illegal plus they are risking their job on line which noone want to do it
if done on different nights, it wouldve been different staff
What’s more unsettling is that one of the festivals was called “Life is Beautiful”
glad im not the only one coming back to this in 2021. been watching videos of this tragedy for 3 hours now and im sick to my stomach. everyone seems to have forgotten

@@Leopar525 Dumbest comment out there, you certainly know nothing about psychatry or psychatrists, or even about "psychos".
Casino's have some of the best (and most) security cameras out there. Yet all this video shows us is some 1999 cell phone footage of a blue blob walking around. That elevator footage was horrible.
Gadsdan cameras aren’t even that bad. Not HD but good enough to see faces
Gadsdan hhrhr
You have to realize they are recording 24/7, and they save the footage for more than a week, which when you have as many cameras as that casino had, is a TON of footage to store. Imagine if they recorded at even 720p, 30fps, it would be insane to store that on a small server even.
Las Vegas shooting was an inside job *cough cough
But casinos have money, *alot* of it , and they can afford a big server, and lots of storage :D
Prayer's to those who lost their lives and injured.
Haunting, chilling, harrowing...

By one man ? Come on……Think.
Creepy Contagion one man with high caliber weapons can do a lot. A guy I think in World War One killed like what. 80 Germans by himself with a machine gun. So yes it’s possible. The only thing I don’t understand is why is it a mental illnesses if a white man shoots people. But a crime or terrorist if it’s anyone not white? Explain that one haha
Zelro is my name! Build. Yeah but this guy reportedly had multiple physical health problems and probably couldn’t handle most of those rifles. I’m not saying he didn’t orchestrate this attack but there were others involved
671JH where’s u get this info?
@@thatoneguy3415 You are misinformed….Look for the people that have been in war and know the sound of weapons, they are the authority on this FALSE FLAG!!!……BS.
Nobodys gonna ask why this guy had mad bags for one person....ok
You already know
You expect the hotel to track the bags of every single person? He spaced it out he didn’t take them all in at once
@@lettuce2383 Don't speak logic that will spoil the conspiracy
because he is white
Gun running
What’s even scarier is that you all believe the narrative that this guy did it. In the shooting footage, you can hear two separate shooters …
I'll never believe he acted alone. Maybe the shooting itself maybe but not the planning. I remember a press conference the sheriff was speaking and someone asked him about the shooter's car and someone behind the sheriff said don't go there. Strange very strange
In what way would they be helping him? He's the only one buying the guns, he's the only one bringing the guns in suitcases to his room and he's the only one doing the shooting. I'm just sort of interested in what you mean by this? And what does this other person(s) gain?
@@ML-kx9gz why would they say don't go there to the sheriff when he was asked about the shooter's car??

Some ppl were saying he wanted to commit suicide but didn't want to die alone, so he did this so he would be remembered forever. I think this is correct, but I want to add that maybe he gambled a lot because maybe he was like "I'll gamble all the rest of my money away, if I go big (and it'd have to be BIG to change his mind about suicide) then I would take the money and continue my life. If not, I'll just do the evil deed and pass away." But idk. Maybe I'm just thinking money hungry lol.
Edit: I'm not American, and I have no idea abt any other information about this situation that wasn't shown in the video
That is a good theory
Never thought of it that way
Imagine this happened over a black/red 50/50 bet that he lost, sheesh.
I wonder if his room neighbors in the hotel could here the large amount of shots he was shooting ?
@@mordiiy on for sure it would’ve been loud af
This shooting is just really odd and weird for me. Feels unreal for me

@@ehhad2356 it's OK you keep believing the government cares about people
This is why the gospel needs to be preached everywhere in the world. This man was clearly full of demons
That dude looks tired of live, but didn't want to go alone
So does anyone in this hotel think it's normal to bring 25 or so to his hotel room??
So many people come and go, im sure they had no idea he had so many bags in one room. Rewatching the footage, they probably felt so stupid.
He obviously did it in a pretty smart way. The Mandalay is a big hotel with a lot of staff and a lot of guests. Its likely he just came in on another day with more suitcases when other staff was on duty and 5 suitcases at a time isnt odd for a big hotel like that. No ones gonna tell other staff someone came in with 5 suitcases today watch out and see if he brings anymore. Knowing what we know it is easy to tell what hes doing and how he did it but no ones gonna realize anything unordinary is even happening cause no one remembers a person for bringing suitcases into a hotel, its nothing unordinary.
I think the staff would be occupied doing other things. I doubt they’d be focusing on one person.
It’s easy to say after the fact, but these staff see a lot of people a day
Plus I worked in a really big hotel here in London, there aren’t cameras in many places (like the corridors where rooms are). The CCTV footage is always visible at the reception but we hardly looked at it. We weren’t supposed to be on any guests case unless we thought they were pedophiles.
still no video from the hallway in front of his room
Hugh Mungus there never will be, the truth is there was multiple shooters
Rase -iwnl- lol give me a break
cult Watch based off his employment history and witness and video accounts its more likely than not federal employees/contractors were involved. I wanna say they released stills at some point.
cult Watch i don’t think you should laugh about this. Something really doesn’t seem right no matter who’s involved.
@cult Watch Dumbfuck, go back to your couche and turn the tv back on.
Guy had it on his bucket list, last thing to tick off.
I don’t think this was forgotten.. but if we always speak on it and give the story attention, other crazy people might want the game and headlines and actually commit a similar event
None of these amass shootings are forgotten but they are not on people's minds 24/7 all the time
This has gone largely under reported. I want a documentary. I want more info on this guy.
He was the ultimate recluse tho. So what we will ever know about him is limited
He’s a white dude. They know how to protect their ppl. I’m a black guy and my 2nd trip alone with different bags might have drawn suspicion from the hotel stuff let alone security. I would have been put on watch on the spot. You’re failing to acknowledge white privilege at work here
Racist...
Oh yes we almost forgot everything that ever happened is something to do with racism.
this man was hoarding suitcases
What on earth??? Twenty-one bags!!!??? Crazy!!!
CT! The stuff must have thought nothing of it because it could have been the same 5 bags he was dragging around. Wish the cleaning staff saw something though
Alexander *staff
CT! Fr like what is the point
Alexander that's very suspicious
luggage store be like 😁
His doors opened, closed and locked repeatedly before the shooting began…
1. Why would he do that if he never left and never needed to leave his rooms since they were conjoining?
2. How do we know that no one else (guests, staff or other) entered the room?
3. Why hasn’t the FBI told us why he did this in the first place?
4. What gun law would have prevented this from happening?
