Some videos need to be longer to really get the feeling of the people who were there and how it affected them. Some things shouldn't be rushed.. God bless all of them.
My Grandfather worked down Six Bells, my Mother was pregnant, but overdue by three weeks, so when she finally went into labour, he was notified. He took a holiday to stay close to my Mother, and on the 28th of June 1960 I was born, he said if he would have been working he would have been in the vicinity of the explosion, and could have been killed. I was named after him. His name was David Mitchell.
I studied this disaster in college for my fireman’s college course some of the details of the the safety report were heartbreaking ( fireman underground safety official)
And this is why Wales voted to leave the EU. SICKENING. RIP and god bless. To those brave men, We are out now and this government will finally remember you.
Nick, you're a moron, the UK had far better safety standards than the EEC ever had when we joined in the 70s, safety standards in the EU still lag behind those we have in the UK. These safety laws were made whilst in the EU and we still made our own laws whilst in the EU, how odd...
This is a terrible example of presenting a disaster to the public view for purpose of understanding what happened. The constant precession of ministers, praying, hymning, towel wringing totally distracts from the facts of what actually happened. There is a mentality that has been growing over the last 20 years that everybody has to be pulled into vortex of misery to share the experience about disasters. I got entirely bored listening to the praying and hymning so I do not know what actually happened at this mine disaster, thanks for nothing!
If you have any real interest, don't whinge here but take the trouble to read the official mines inspectorate report. Some folks seem to want everything served up on a plate. Not hard to find online - took 2 minutes www.dmm.org.uk/pitwork/html/sixbells.htm If you are really concerned, produce your own video, and post it on youtube
@@bigoldgrizzly Oh so sorry I disturbed your view of protocol, Yah, served on plate, when I have my car repaired expect it to be done right...served on plate? If you are going to make videos for public viewing - serve them right or not at all! It is the 'mentality' of the times, 'you must endure my pain with me', am I right or am I right?
@@richardnailhistorical3445 It seems your objection is to the religious beliefs and feelings of others. This video was clearly made primarily as a memorial to those who died, recording the impact and continuing effects on the community of this terrible disaster and also to record the basic facts of the disaster for those who do not know. If you prefer a purely dry factual approach, read the official report. If you have your car repaired you are commissioning and paying for a service and have the right to have the work done to your satisfaction. You did not commission or pay for this video, so can only take as it is, or move on to other sources. The likes and dislikes for this video tell their own tail

My grandfather was 29 when he passed away down in the six bells disaster, 3 years older than I am today. Rest in paradise bamp ❤
RIP❣🙏
Also my grandad was in the explosion rip ❤️
From a fellow Welsh man my heart goes out to you. The price of coal was far too much
So sorry for your loss
There is a saying in aviation -- I think it applies here as well.
"Safety regulations are written in blood".
Nothing more beautiful than a Welsh male voice choir - An English son of a Stoke mining family.
From a Stoke Miner. Absolutely - - fitting music for such a tragic story.
Went to many choir evenings at Old Victoria theatre and other local halls
Very beautiful memorial video for those who died in 1960.....This older generation is amazeing....im very happy to have found this video....
Watching in Denver, Colorado, RIP to all lost at 6 Bells, and peace to the surviving loved ones. Very well-done video.
God Bless America and it’s wonderful people. Greetings from Wales

God bless all of them.

Coal mining was dangerous, thank God deep mining ended

This happened before the UK joined the EU in 1970s. Get your facts right.

Are you mad?! a Tory government caring at all about South Wales?!
@@eirugsiongriffiths8563 It was not called the EU then it was the EEC in the 1970's when first formed
@@helgavanovich7611 Like a Labour government caring about Aberfan !

God help you in your time of distress -- no one else will.

Too long. This is the RUclips generation, of instant gratification. Anything over 12 minutes is an immediate fail. See ya.
Good riddance, oh shallow millennial. And the video wasn't all about you or XBOX so it had no value. tisk tisk
Retard you will never be a man,
So, you tube is a bit like sex then. While yer finished in less than twelve minutes. Some of us can go for ages.
Millennials have the attention span of a goldfish.
😂😂😂😂 what stupid fools you young lot are unwill reap what u sow God is watching always
