The Shannon Stone story made me so sad. Imagine going to the ballpark with your child, and a star athlete throws a ball to them. You'd be so happy. To end like this is tragedy.
Dude, I totally forgot about xuxa! I've actually seen this syndicated on cable TV here in America. There used to be some stupid joke we'd say to one another based on her and Im sure it was rude,but I don't remember what it was and I don't feel like I've missed out on anything by that. Dang what a blast from the past
As a dad that shit ruined my whole day and I turned the video off:/ I could not imagine a beautiful moment of bonding like that leaving my son fatherless and traumatized.
I don’t understand that, if I’m so scared that I get a restraining order against someone, why would my fear not increase at the idea of them knowing I went to the police? I feel sad for women sometimes
@@curtis4948You know restraining orders aren't just for women, right? There are plenty of reasons to get a restraining order; its not just for women who end up on true crime shows.
I live in the town where Becky was murdered, and I can say that it shook us to our core. Completely shattered the small town security we had. Someone so evil should have been separated from her.

I visited Florida a few weeks back, and I actually ran into Nick Crowley at a Panera Bread. I asked for his autograph, and he promptly put me in a headlock and brutally delivered blow after blow perfectly to the center of my face. This continued for a total of 1 minute and 57 seconds, after which he released me, where I was rushed to the hospital. I just got out and have fully recovered from the physical and mental trauma. Keep up the great work Nick Crowley!
My uncle works for the fbi and for a bit he worked for the department that catches predators. He has a young sounding voice so he was used as the “bait”. People don’t last long in that department and switch out fairly quickly. My uncle said the things he saw and heard will never leave him. Those who have been and are in that department deserve so much praise. Absolutely heartbreaking and maddening work.
For real, how is his sister gonna sue for 105 million law suit for her brother being a pedophile he got what he deserved, as someone who was abused sexually as a young teen by an older guy, and never got justice I enjoy seeing them get exactly what they deserve which is death.
That poor, poor child. Her little heart was likely over the moon at the idea she’d found a new family. Her fate was not deserved. Rest peacefully you little angel.
@@bosmanebeezy9788 what's even worse is my brothers father beat my mom and killed a baby before it was born I never was able to see what could have been
To those of you curious like me - Cooper Stone, Shannon’s son, is doing well. As of January of 2023, he was playing baseball at varsity for his high school, and plans on attending fire school to become a firefighter like his dad. His mom, Jenny, is the assistant principal at his school and was able to be his rock as he grew up ❤ He seems to be doing well according to articles and interviews :)
Two things I found on the Wikipedia Article on the Xuxa Park fire: - One person was struggling to get out, but Xuxa's bodyguard returned to aid her out. - Xuxa would visit those who were hospitalized in the incident. Overall, it's a relief to know no one had died!
It's too bad this show wasn't allowed to continue after the mandatory safety updates. It seemed to have a fair deal of pesonality, on the contrary of most kid shows, set designers and hosts think they can get away with laziness because of the target audience. I guess it'd have been a PR nightmare, to reinstate it.
@@nozoto at least after this show was cancelled, she still got other shows till the early 2000s. She was a massive celebrity here in Brazil and also made songs and movies, so the accident would never be able to end her career
She sounds like a good person too. She didn't have to visit the people who were hospitalized and a lot of celebs wouldn't have, especially in that time period when there was no easy way to gain clout for doing such an act.
I will forever admire the fact that Xuxa Park's staff prioritized the safety of the kids as well as their own. We, unfortunately, don't often get to see that with other cases involving attacks or other unfortunate events.
i agree. I was seriously impressed when i heard about the success of the evacuation. wrangling that many frightened children that quickly is no small thing. the staff did well.
@@battyrae1398 there was one guy who was member of the security staff, Leonilson de Oliveira, this man has literally risked his life by getting children out of the little ferris wheel beside the ship where Xuxa used to get in and out every show, it was literally the first place to be engulfed by the flames, the rest of the crowd and staff could simply run away from the scene as seen in the brief part of the footage, but the children in the ferris were buckled to their seats and could have been the worst victims of it wasn't by this man's heroic act, God bless him, here in Brazil the public outcry over it was huge and Xuxa stopped the spaceship stuff right after it...Xuxa Park was indeed cancelled but she continued presenting shows for kids but recorded and without crowd
@@MrWolfSnack yeah that was definitely a sign from the lord to quit risking his life for worthless clout, I'll never understand daredevils.. I have a healthy dose of cowardice that prevents me from ever partaking in such craziness
The fact that everyone lived that first one is actually such a blessing, I can’t imagine the guilt I would be facing if kids had lost their lives edit: the guilt i would be facing (if I were part of the show) if kids had lost their lives
Globo (the network that broadcasted Xuxa Park) had a couple of fires years prior to that one, so they were pretty concerned about fire codes and standards. Everybody got out of there alive because they had a bunch of emergency exits and signs that made it easy for the staff to take the kids outside. That is not always the case in Brazil... Just search about the Kiss Nightclub fire in 2013...

People would either tell you Lula is god on earth (because if you talk bad of him you can only be a Bolsonaro fan right? 🙄) or the next communist devil. He's dirty as any other politician in Brazil and does a lot of stuff that CAN be seen as shady but can't be proved. Still, he's doing ok I guess, it's hard to be bad as Bolsonaro after all, but still people should demand more of him and not glorify him. He just made a bad decision on expanding taxation on online shopping in foreign countries, which is kinda given him some bad looks. I can't say too much though, I don't know that much politics. Hope this helps you, tried to be unbiased as possible lol
The government is corrupt, they don't do anything with pedophiles and just focus on lGBTQ+ stuff when they should be keeping these sick people away from children, i find it disgusting that they just let them go free soon after the show stopped airing.
xuxa also saw the fire starting and yelled "vem, gente" (come, guys) and helped to save multiple people. she was so brave! the show was rebranded and all families were helped. xuxa is still alive and highly celebrated here in brazil.
The Ariel story got me, the amount of abuse that sicko put that toddler through all the while pretending she's this bubbly lovely person. She was literally there for less than a week before she died.
the tweet @27:37 where she is talking about no white privilege right before adopting a white child ... i mean if that wasn't foreshadowing ... edit: wow she goes on to blame her son, saying he got anger issues. What a great "mama bear" out to protect her kids LOL
@@vismattress5760 funny, the media called Rittenhouse a racist for defending himself against a group of white dudes, even tho he was also white. This lady hated white people, then adopted a defenseless white baby and tortured her to death. But you want to say there's "nO eViDeNcE". Every tweet she posted about her black supremacy and anti-white sentiments is evidence of racial motivation. And when caught, she threw her actual child under the bus in an attempt to destroy another child's life. Guess her BLM views didn't apply to her own son.
You also can’t forget the guilt Hamilton likely went through, with his playful gesture to make a kid happy accidentally getting someone killed instead.
Shannon Stones short lived state of mind after such an injury is absolutely rare in such cases and despite that, he dedicated his last clear thoughts to his son. What a great father ...

I was so relieved to hear that everyone escaped the Xuxa Park event alive...my heart was sinking when you mentioned the children in the ferris wheel - thank god the staff came to the rescue just in time!!
Honestly I think the reason everyone survived was because they were really on top of the situation. Even the staff member who ran out to try to extinguish the flames when the fire began is evidence that they were very observant. Quick and courageous action on all parties is exactly how situations like these should be handled.
I'm from Brazil, and.. What I know is that, Xuxa was the one of first people to see the fire, and because the spaceship was made of plastic, it spread really fast. No one got injuries, and to this day, it's considered one of the most disasters in television here in Brazil. Xuxa had others show's after, but never using this type of thing again.
It was a miracle. That child was at the edge of the cliff towards death. No, they would not let him die. The outcome was happy, although some were wounded, there were no fatalities, so bless the Lord. This shows that Children are blessed gifts from god
as a brazilian viewer I never expected you to talk about my country’s media, you actually could make a whole series about brazilian tv, we had a tv reporter who commissioned hitmans just so he could have more gruesome crimes to broadcast, the crew would literally arrive before the police and start recording and disturbing the scene
there is a channel called Took2Much he made a video about it (if im not mistaking with something else tho) its cool channel but different with no comentary so you have to read everything
I read an article about the reporter who hired thugs! It’s a crazy thing to think about. Violence is everywhere, and we don’t need money hungry people adding to it.
Josh Hamilton who threw the ball has also apparently had a history of struggle with alcohol and drug abuse and recovering and relapsing numerous times, along with physically assaulting his own daughter. Nobody in this story seems to have anything happy about them
@@CraftDayFriends at first I was like “okay well if he’s trying to recover from his addictions I won’t hold that against him” but then I got to the daughter part, tragic man
@@timcharles7360 His daughter has nothing to gain by lying about being abused by her dad. In fact, it's usually very difficult for children to talk about being abused and the fact that she did only verifies it's the truth. Physical assault is a crime that is only lied about in 2-7% of cases so there's at least a 93-98% chance she's telling the truth! Stop victim-blaming.
Mainly because their practices were shoddy and sometimes downright illegal, leaving the official prosecutors open to their legal proceedings against the perps failing. There's been numerous occasions where the TCAP "investigations" led to offenders not being charged or even being acquitted due to tainted evidence or straight-up entrapment. As problematic as it sounds, even predators have a right to due process, and some vigilante show ain't helping the authorities in prosecuting these sickos one bit - sometimes they actually help the perps.
Because they weren't law enforcement, and the system ended up having to free literally everyone the show "caught". It was televised vigilante justice at BEST. Just because it involves kids doesn't mean you get to take the law into your own hands.
@@FringeSpectre it’s all on video, and they have actual police involved in every string, so not sure what you’re talking about. The problem is the justice system doesn’t care about pedophiles, especially when they have money. The entire show ended because a rich, affluential man was caught and killed himself. They all should have got awards, but instead they were shut down because a dead pedophiles with money and power was more important than helping children. Way to defend the pedophiles though, good knowing where you stand 🤣😂
*Shannon was a great father. I’m just some guy on the internet, but for your final thought to be “please check on my son, he was up there by himself” before succumbing to injuries of that severity, there’s no doubt in my mind that Shannon was an amazing father.*
Typical liberal bullshit. He jumped in front of the other guy to steal the ball and I'm supposed to feel sorry for him? Play stupid games win stupid prizes
Houdini always said it was immoral to force an audience to participate in what could be a death sentence, so his feats and stunts were always so meticulously planned that they were no more dangerous than if he were sitting on a couch at home. The other two escape artists may have wanted to learn a thing or two from him instead of wanting to outperform him.
It seems crazy to me that little planning was done? As in, he didn't look into the box's materials or its construction, the weight/amount/set time of the concrete, the amount of time before O2 is depleted/CO2 builds-up, back-up plans, etc.? Seems kind of stupid to not prepare your stunt, especially one that is so dangerous. Like you say, I think Houdini was much more meticulous and well thought-out.
@@binatitagain also using concrete instead of just dirt. The plan was obviously for him to already be out of the box before they were finished pouring the concrete but concrete is over twice as heavy as just loose dirt. I'm not sure how big the hole was exactly but it was probably around 2-3 cubic meters if not more. That's around 6 tonnes of concrete versus 2-3 tonnes just dirt.
It's still creepy to prey on gay/bi (cause it's not just gay men on there in fact I'd say it's mostly bisexual dudes) men and entertainment himself with their dead bodies after poisoning them.
The buried alive trick absolutely is terrifying! My grandfather worked for our local water department. Once on an instillation of water lines, two of his crew died because the sides of the trench collapsed on them and they suffocated in the dirt before the rest of the crew could dig them out. My grandfather lived into his 90s and was haunted by their deaths!
So weird, my great grandfather who is 93 told me a very similar story from when he worked building the railroad across California.. he said that it wasn’t unusual to have either a death or catastrophic injury daily. I wonder how common this sort of thing happening was back then due to how lax safety used to be on job sites and in factories.
@@bradenharris8718 Everything 1was dangerous back then to be fair, I vaguely remember a story on RUclips about a controller that contained actual liquid lead in it.
@@Eduardesuper it used to be common to have mercury switches in devices. Most old thermostats on people's walls in old houses have them. It's a little glass vial with liquid mercury in it. When it tips one direction the liquid metal touches two metal contacts and completes the circuit.
How idiotic. We can't catch predators anymore because they might kill themselves. Ok, so? Good. Shame on his sister for suing when her brother was who he was.
The actual issue is that by all means it was illegal due to police incompetence, getting the papers wrong etc. It pretty much gave the media something to punish and cancel the show for...and oh i so wonder why. Almost like predators watch out for each other.
@@AgxntAqua As a teenager who has severe emotional trauma from my father, I fully support. There's a difference between corporal punishment and straight abuse.
One thing that I feel no one is mentioning is how awful I feel for the woman in the first story. She seemed like such a good celebrity and her show looked super fun, and she had it ripped away through no fault of her own. Hope she’s ok today
Even after the tragedy her career survived. After a few years, she presented several more shows. She was a staple of children's TV shows up to around 2009 (my memory is fuzzy on this part). She even had a couple with the same level of elaborate scenography. But I believe with not the same capacity of children on it. Started in a couple of movies for kids and even launched a series of DVDs with kids' songs. And after that, she took some time away from TV and when she returned moved to do more regular talk shows and presenting a version of Dancing with the Stars at some point. She is virtually retired, and still very much loved by the several generations of kids that grew up with versions of her show. (Edit: typos)
Why _would_ anyone mention how you’re feeling? We don’t know, and I would hazard a guess, that no one even considered your feelings into relation to this video, because, quite frankly, why would we? 😆
Fun fact about Xuxa: she worked for brazilian television since 1979, but when internet popularized in Brazil people started to spread tons of creepypastas about her (if you played her CD's backwards it would spawn devils etc) and even impute that the fire at her studio was caused because a "pact" she did with Satan. But when Stranger Things aired in 2016, Netflix did a collab promotional video with her where she mocks the cursed aura people gave her, a true queen herself
I remember watching morning cartoons as a kid in the U.S. and her show seemed to just come out of nowhere. It was like the channel was taken over by a circus performer in the land of Oz. I had no idea what it was. I figured she was Russian. Haha. She was clearly popular and had a great energy about her though. I also remember a TV show that came on about the same time where kids would don velcro suits and run around a maze or something sticking Nintendo video games to their bodies. It was a fun time.
Thats so cool Im from brazil and seeing someone comment on something from here is really cool Even trought it had some bad stuff on it after from what I heard lmao
I feel so sorry for Shannon’s kid. Going to a baseball game with his dad just to have a fun time, and then losing his father at said game. I hope he got all the help he needed to cope with such a loss, I lost my father as an adult and it took me months to come to terms with it.
I don't understand the backlash against to catch a predator and the police with that case. He was a paedophile. They confronted him. He shot himself. They had the evidenced already. He was soliciting minors. It doesn't matter he didn't show up. He was still sending explicit pics and soliciting minors. His own guilt/embarrassment/ killed him
Of course it's unjust that the show likely was cancelled due to people in power being exposed, but I think outrage is justified since these ppl weren't actually punished due to charges not sticking because of the way the team working with the show handled it.
The United States of America is governed by pedophiles. There are more pedophiles within 1 square mile of the District of Columbia than anywhere else in the USA. You never go after pedophiles on national television. Pedophiles are an endangered species that need to be protected by the FBI, local/district law enforcement, and mainstream news media against slander from the peasant class. This is the reason why Jeffrey Epstein's Client List is a matter of national security. I hope this clears your question.
It's because it didn't follow "standard procedure." They argued that the crew being there ready to blast him on national television was just the additional push he needed to end his life instead of complying. The sister kept saying that by being there in the way they were they acted as prosecutors, judge, and executioner. I think it's stupid, but I also sort of see what she is saying. It's a shame really.
watched the video, is not as much as graphic as it’s shocking. The cement collapsing and the sound it produces is gut-wrenching knowing there’s someone under there, but not gory at all. Still it is a shocking clip, my morbid curiosity got the best of me.
I don't know anything about escape artists and their stunts, so I'm wondering how the heck they planned on escaping 6 feet of cement and mud to begin with??
@@DSDaly Seriously. I thought they were just gonna up the stakes by being handcuffed or something, but escaping from under concrete without any help is literally impossible. And 6 feet of it no less. Even a 1 feet thick concrete is basically impossible to break by hand unless you're Goku or Hulk something. No disrespect, but frankly, it was impossible from the beginning.
@@grimsladeleviathan3958 im more confused on they haven't even performed the normal version(if my goldfish memory remember it right) but they upped the difficulty more, is it a more bigger achievement if you go in blind in this challenges?
The story of the Father falling to his death at the Ball Game was incredibly moving..The fact that Texas made a statue dedicated to him and all fans and seeing the man’s son there as it was unveiled had me on the verge of tears..Baseball and fathers and sons have always had strong connections
Looking at the scene made me think if the guy on his side couldn't hold him from falling... Regardless, how could he be so reckless into diving head first for a ball? I'm not censoring him, I'm simply thinking about what drove him to do that instead of leaving the ball and thinking about his son.
my eyes started to water when you mentioned the boy in the ferris wheel, I was expecting you to say he didn't make it out alive, thank god he did, I'm so relieved that everyone on the set survived that day.
Whats lost here is that Josh Hamilton actually contemplated not throwing foul balls to fans after Shannons death but was convinced by the Stone family to keep doing what he did
The story about the little girl’s death is rough for so many reasons. If it wasn’t until the internal bleeding was too much that she died, I can’t even imagine the pain she was in. The fact that she was in the foster system and the only reason she ended up with that monster is because she won a show and had the funds to do it, and she got almost randomly placed in their home. The fact that the wife’s first thought to deflect wasn’t to fake an accident like falling down the stairs, or even to blame the other adult in the home, but to try and pin it on her CHILD. Absolutely horrendous all around.
The to catch a predator situation always frustated me. His sister defended that man tooth and nail. He was a predator who knew what would happen to him in prison. Cowardly man. We'll never know how many children he victimized and his sister defends that. Gross lady.
Seriously my thoughts exactly and he didn't killed himself because he was innocent there was clearly some terrible shit he thought the cops found out about
i had 2 pause when i heard tht portion like. idc how close a person is with their sibling or anyone else 4 tht matter. if they Hurt someone in tht way, what the fuck are you doing defending them ?? how does Anyone with good conscience defend a pedophile ?? like u said, he literally took tht course of action 2 Avoid Responsibility. tbh if a sibling of mine did tht i'd celebrate their death !!!
Omg fr!! I was like why are these news folk more concerned about who did the operation rather than the fact there's on less child predator out there taking advantage of kids like huh???
The Maritza Martin story was such an awful story. It’s shocking that a mother can’t visit her daughter’s grave without a reporter dogging her every step. No privacy during a time of grief. The worst thing about it is that Nunez and Maritza are remembered for this shocking video and their poor daughter was not. The way they treated their 15 year old child who was probably feeling like her life ended when she found out she was pregnant and then literally ending herself. She must have felt so alone.
@@ashriihi that has nothing to do with pro choice. She was pregnant and that was enough to cause her mom to verbally abuse her. Both parents were the same way. It’s a horrible situation but keep the politics to yourself…
The fact nobody died in the Xuxa fire is unbelievable and honestly kind of impressive... The people on set must have been really on their toes to get all of those kids out of there safely. It could have gone so, so much worse, but they made sure those kids got to go home to their families and I hope they all know how great they are for that.
It’s incredible that as soon as the fire is noticed every adult in frame immediately runs to a child to save them, I can only imagine what would’ve happened if they hadn’t jumped into action to save everyone so quickly
@@boianko Is very documented, because the channel paied all the treatment for the injuried ones. The two most famous cases are the Xuxa security guard that rescued several children, had pulmonar problems from the smoke inhalation and the 7 years-old girl that was traped on a ferris wheel that was very close of the space ship and had 2nd and 3rd burns.
The fact that it only took seconds for the Xuxa set to go on fire was so scary. Literally only a few moments and everything was gone. It’s a miracle no one was killed.
That's the funny thing about fires that burn that fast. They generally don't last long enough to cause too many serious injuries. Like with the Hindenburg, for instance, the fire injuries were all minor burns with only a couple of people getting 2nd degree burns. The worst injuries were from some who fell, but no one died and none needed extensive care afterwards.
Just for comparison, same country, get the Boate Kiss (a nightclub) fire, where again it happened in a matter of seconds due improper use of fireworks indoors. Most casualties weren't due burning, but intoxication. Many guys went out of there unharmed, talked to reporters and went back to help rescue people trapped in there. They weren't even scorched at all. They died hours later due intoxication. Those gases generated by the fire were as deadly as any chemical weapons. Moreover, fire certificates were expired, most emergency doors were blocked (maybe to avoid sneaking? Idk) and the nightclub used foam on the ceiling to help contain the noise. Turns out foam is as inflammable as petrol.
It is honestly so horrifying to think that in a few moments if that fire didn't go off when it did and would've gone off later, Xuxa might've been caught in the flames herself. I'm glad no one was killed in the fire however, and I'm also glad they got that kid out when they did
I actually cried at the story of Shannon and his son. That poor kid must have gone through so much, I hope he’s doing better and I hope his Dad is in a better place.
It was also tough for Josh Hamilton. No doubt even though it was an unfortunate accident, he felt guilt over the incident. After the incident, he relapsed into alcohol and drug addiction.
@@dreamlandnightmare I mean, I know Josh Hamilton felt awful about this incident but you shouldn’t make the implication and deduction that him relapsing on drug addiction had anything to do with this accident.
@@willpomeroy7711 It had everything to do with that incident! He was trying to escape the guilt he felt. If he'd never have tossed that ball, the guy might still be alive. That pressed on him! I know we like seeing the best for everyone.... But to ignore the correlation/causation would just be willfully blind to the events leading up to it. It was a very sad situation all around.
I had never heard the full backstory behind To Catch a Predator being cancelled. It's super weird how everyone seemed to dogpile on the show because of the guys death, but I feel like the fact that he went to that length means he must have been guilty. Especially since they were a DA, I think they would know that they clearly did something wrong and weren't going to get away with it.
Yes, that was new to me also, and vexes me. The show was absolutely NOT in the wrong for driving a child predator to self delete. Wealth and power protects itself, I mean, to this day. Check any news outlet, even "news" outlets... 'round and 'round it goes. The folks at the top are protected at any cost.
Being a not only a “chomo” in prison but also a DA…? As sad as it is, death is literally the better option. As opposed to being beaten into a seizure daily, waking up covered in your own blood, piss, shit and puke, day in day out. He knew that was coming.
Did you miss the part where no one on the show was ever prosecuted? The show didn't care about making sure people would be found guilty, they just wanted entertainment.
@@R.A.A.could care less about child preds committing s*icide, they should all do it for all I care. You must be one or are simply complicit which is bad enough
For real. The guy tempted fate enough already. Being choked by a giant snake should be the definite sign to call it quits for good. Take up macrame quilting, less that could go wrong.
As flawed & controversial TCAP was/is- seeing the show as a 13yr old after talking to an “18 yr old” I met off a “Hi5” (I think that’s what it was called) chat room who was from NY, apparently ready to travel to TX to visit me; saying my voice was hot & insisted I kept our “relationship” a secret from my parents…it opened my eyes and quite possibly saved me.
Even if it’s flawed and controversial… if these men weren’t trying to fuck kids they wouldn’t get caught and wouldn’t be on the show🤷♀️ they all got what they deserved.
Only bad thing TCAP did was sometimes not follow procedure which lead to some pedos leaving free. Otherwise, I think anyone who finds TCAP to be controversial either stupid or pedos themselves. Nothing wrong with a show about catching and exposing people that are willing to take advantage of children
@@ivanvenne I think a predator committed suicide after being exposed and the family tried to sue. I can’t remember. He saved tax payers some money, however I can empathize with the families feelings to an extent. That’s a lotta shit to process. But then you read the full transcripts of some of these dudes.. There is just pure evilness in their beings. And some are out in the world now.
@@ivanvenne Not just that, but the watch dog group they filmed with has basically destroyed nearly all the chat logs and evidence over some temper tantrum they had with the police. They also leaked all the addresses of the predators loved ones and has told fans to harass them. They’re POS. I liked the show, but fuck Perverted Justice, the police, and Chris Hansen. They fucked up wayyyyyy too many times.
The Xuxa Park story is honestly an incredible survival story. I was terrified more people had died, especially with cases like the Nightstation Club Fire but to see everyone made it out without dying is honestly amazing.
God the Nightstation fire. My parents were supposed to be at that, knew the band personally. My mom was getting a tattoo done that day and didn’t go. They lost so many friends that day, and if they went I probably wouldn’t have been born. This was a huge factor in my dad becoming a firefighter
its honestly incredible that they managed to evacuate so many panicking children so quickly. horrible that it happened in the first place ofc, but I can't help but be impressed by how well it seems to have been handled. thats one seriously successful evacuation.
There were 26 injured, 7 of which were considered majorly injured. The kid who got stuck at the ferris wheel had it the worst, with 3rd degree burns. She did eventually make a full recovery but apparently still has scars from the incident.
@@_______a Thank you for that information. I wonder how the scars look like. By "full recovery" I assume everything and her limbs still function, which is good god, that must be so terrifying though. literally trapped in a seat of fire. whoever saved her is a hero
All the trauma she herself had just faced with those kids, and what was probably her biggest source of income literally burned to the ground in front of her… …and her first thought was of the children that’d seen the same thing as her. Truly, she is a model: a model for what all people should be.
The feeling of impending doom is actually a symptom of many things that can happen such as cardiac arrest. Personally on the coffin story, him wanting to call it off should have been a sign something would go wrong. At least for me I’m under the belief that if you feel like something is wrong, remove yourself from the situation because your gut feeling may be correct.
Tbh I view the gut feeling as your brain linking up all the small details and tryna warn you without flooding the aware part of your brain with information
As soon as you said the Xuxa incident was due to electrical failure, it touched so close to home. My family very recently just went through an electrical fire tragedy, though all of us, our animals and majority of our material items got out safe- There is no smell that has tainted my memory more than the smell of an electrical fire burning. Electrical fires have a distinct, traumatizing smell.
During a storm a light pole went out near our house. Something about a switch? Well it routed the excess electricity to our house and essentially overcharged the whole household. Light fixtures amped with a hum. Popping sounds were heard everywhere, surge protectors melted, then came that smell as you said. Our house didn't burn down, but that smell tainted the house for some time. Like burning metal, whatever plastics from the outlets. Its such a distinct smell I will never forget.
The most impressive thing about the Xuxa incident: No one was seriously injured, the only injuries were from smoke inhalation, which also means they all made full recoveries.
Except for the kid that was trapped in the ferris wheel, he got second and third degree burns and his airways almost got completely blocked, but thankfully he survived.
The staff including Xuxa were pretty responsive to the fire, rushed to get the kids out and got to the trapped kid in time despite the absolute chaos and intense heat surrounding them. They did the best they could given the circumstances, that’s why nobody died. At least in my opinion anyway.
The Shannon Stone story is just unspeakably heartbreaking. He wanted to catch the ball for his son like his own father did for him when he was a child. I hope his son is doing alright. Josh Hamilton too.
That was just hella stupid all I could do is shake my head what’s up with people trying to knock on deaths door in the guise of living their best life it makes no sense
The baseball story is sooo sad. Feel horrible for everyone involved. I’m sure the pitcher feels overwhelming guilt even though it wasn’t his fault. I worked at a baseball field and it’s part of the fun when they toss the ball out for fans to keep and happens at least twice a game every game. You’d never expect it to end in tragedy. I can’t imagine the trauma for his son and the rest of the witnesses.
I heard the team briefly considered ending throwing balls to fans, but Shannon’s family said no, he wouldn’t want a beloved tradition like that to end on his account.
I love how the media unilaterally decided to attack to catch a predator. As if certain people of power that practice in the same activities wanted it off the air to not be the next person exposed.
Or perhaps because it actually compromised real cases. In a majority of cases the perps got off on technicalities because the actions of the vigilantes and the show's producers violated the legal process.
When they started showing the buried alive stunt I thought "Oh yeah, I've seen this one, the concrete suddenly moves and the magician dies" and was surprised at the survival. I'd seen the fatal one that had happened where the exact same problem had occurred. To repeat the same dumb trick that killed someone else a few years prior and not try to fix the bit that went wrong? Pure stupidity.
The last story makes me so mad, so many people failed at their job, so many of them could have helped that poor woman, to have the last memory you have on earth to be of a reporter completely disrespecting your mourning of your daughter must be one of the worst fates there is
@truanalain42662 not surprised. Sometimes you wonder why they even exist. When you need help, they either refused or attack. I feel bad for those with dark skin who are discriminated by them. Hell, this one lady was very disrespected by the police when she reported an attempted car theft. Why can't they hire anyone competent these days?
I think she deserved to die, gods will, if a woman never let me have any rights to raising my own daughter who I love very much and finding out she got pregnant at 15 and killed herself under that woman’s care that would be one dead woman, hats off to that man cause he loved his daughter very much and that evil woman didn’t deserve any more days alive
@@truanalain4266you do know a piece of paper saying dont come near me or punishment of 1 year jail time doesnt stop 12 bullets too the face and body yes?
As a woman who physically can’t have kids (after battling cancer) the child abuse Ariel put her daughter through made me angry and sick. Punch a wall, scream or throw something if you need to, but never, ever harm a child. What an absolute monster 😒☹️
Yep I agree. For those that find themselves getting angry I beg you go to the bathroom and remind yourself that the things that may be annoying you are literally your babys childhood and these memories will stay with them forever once they have grown up and moved out. You will get plenty of time to yourself later in life. There is no excuse to abuse children. None at all. Ask for help if you can't control yourself. Save your child. Be honest and ask for help. It's ok to ask for help. It is never ok to abuse a child.
@@AboveWater This is why I hope I never have children and will always stay far away from vulnerable people, because I have mental issues that makes me lash out..
@@AboveWater reminds of that white gay couple that killed their adopted blacks kids by driving off a cliff or the more recent case of the the white family locking their black kids in an outhouse
@@AboveWaterit’s much more difficult than that but still agree. The only problem I have is the fact that she obviously wasn’t mentally well enough to have kids in the first place. Like at this point it’s not an adoption/foster problem. It’s deadass a parent problem.
It’s important to note that in the William Conradt TCAP case, he had actually committed a crime by engaging in sexual chats with an underage child, and the police ultimately made he decision to go to his house after learning of his position as an assistant DA. They also found after the fact that he had CP and evidence of corruption that actually led to jail time for others on his computer, which is most likely contributed to his decision to take his own life. IMO the media firestorm that resulted after his suicide only led to 25 horrible people walking free and didn’t actually accomplish anything useful. I feel no sympathy for him.
This is why I fucking hate vigilantes both on tv and irl; like you’re not the police and you setting your own personal „sting“ to catch them in the act to have them arrested is borderline entrapment (which is illegal) and any evidence for that person would most likely be inadmissible due to people being ignorant and playing police officer themselves. So yes I’m glad these shows are getting cancelled; they’re morally grey and in the end they inadvertently fucked a case and released 2 dozen criminals into the world. Anyone who takes the law into their own hands should be in prison
@@FlexedNoose it’s not entrapment, TCAP worked with the police and stayed uninvolved in he arrests of the suspects, and the evidence being dropped for the 25 other men in the sting is the result of an incompetent DA who fell prey to a media firestorm. Not gonna cry over a dead pedo.
My heart just broke hearing about the dad, trying to catch the baseball, for his son. May he rest easily. So sorry for the son, and the family and friends
You probably get this a lot, but it is absolutely insane how you cover topics that I've never even remotely heard about. I spend a lot of time watching RUclips videos about mysteries like these and always see the same few topics discussed. But your videos contain obscure topics and extremely dedicated writing and research. ❤
These have been around for awhile and have been talked about to death already, it all depends on what depth level of morbid curiosities of YT that one frequents.
He’s incredibly smart and resourceful! He’s so well-spoken too, and not at all arrogant in the least, especially for such a young guy. He makes such original content, it’s always great.
You remember the three women who were held captive for a decade in Cleveland, Ohio? The local news show discovered the man, who tortured them, made an appearance on their program. He was part of a band that performed on a segment to show off local talent. Although not a killer, it’s still chilling.
He might have technically been a killer. They were preparing to investigate him for forcing the three women to have abortions or forcibly miscarrying fetuses he had conceived when he killed himself in prison.
I was in rehab and read a book about one of the girls. I think it was called finding home or finding me. That book was so good but I feel terrible for 3girls
Seriously 5 days after adopting that sweet baby girl?? FIVE DAYS! I hope that couple rots in prison. Making her walk in public in underwear and beating her just because she was sick, threw up, and didn’t have an appetite. That story made me physically sick and teary eyed.
As a Brazilian I never ever expected to see the xuxa park incident on a foreign video, but here we are. It was a very very hard thing for people that were there to go through. She spent some time away from the tv after that... And that's understandable
36:48 MASSIVE props to the camera man who in a moment of intense panic took the time to set the camera down instead of dropping it. incredible dedication to their profession.
I did some digging and it was in a Latin American channel called Telemundo very popular where I’m from need to ask my grandma if she saw it go down on tv
Oh I just thought he hit the deck behind their car in case Nunez started shooting at them. I can’t really tell whose feet those are at the end walking away though, so if it was Nunez, then I guess the cameraman wouldn’t have been safe regardless. But idk.
The Shannon Stone story is a testament of how much he loved his son. His last words were concerning his concern for his son. 😢 I hope his son will remember his father and be as good a father as his was.
Someone dropped the son's Twitter and apparently he's a baseball player himself now and his header is a picture of him and his dad. So I think he carries his father's memory very well
as a local to the Arlington area where the Texas Rangers stadium is, I think the statue honoring Shannon was one of the greatest decisions they could’ve made it reminds everyone of the love that man had for his son every time they pass by, what a way to keep a memory alive
my worst fear is getting buried alive so watching the section on those stunts made that fear feel very valid. it's tragic that Joe died in such a horrible way and knowing his death could've been prevented if people weren't negligent breaks my heart. I also want to thank you for making such amazing content and bringing attention to things that range from unsettling to horrifying and tragic.
Just imagine the suffocating pressure of the earth completely cutting off any possible air supply as the dirt begins filling your mouth, vomiting and screaming worsening it as the mud rushes to your lungs and burns your throat with its unforgiving dirt. Slowly suffocating in a grueling and desperate manner as you slowly accept your helpless fate
NOTHING boosts ratings in TV or Cinema like hot pink JAILBAIT a**! You damn right, they're going to dog-pile the "vigilantes" exposing predators... duh... ;o)
@@danimocannnu111 AND I suppose THE WRONG ENTIRE COUNTY is "just a typo'..." and coulda' happened to anybody... That's clearly NOT a pencil pusher taking bribes to keep things on the "downlow" for a respected officer of the court or anything... Really? ;o)
I was at the Rangers game where Shannon Stone died. My dad was a huge Rangers fan at the time and Hamilton was my favorite player--tossing his catches into the stands is something he used to do pretty regularly iirc. I was on the upper deck on 3rd base side and watched Shannon fall. I was 11 at the time, and it pretty radically altered my perception of life.
The facts that everyone was turning against To Catch A Predator and the disgusting monster's sister was defending her evil brother are just absolutely sickening. Imagine trying to defend a pedophile and everyone is okay with it. That is so angering.
Despite the extremely devastating events I think it’s incredibly beautiful for Shannon stone to be there forever as a statue in the stadium with his son.
The Shannon Stone story hurts the most cause not only was the sons life ruined, Josh Hamilton never recovered from that moment a son without a father, a family without a husband, and Josh Hamiltons career ultimately derailed, a truly devastating moment
Definitely. Hamilton was never the same after that and he also fell back into his addictions from it. From what I remember he was pretty clean for a few years until a few months after that incident
From what I read his son is doing perfectly fine, his life is not "ruined" of course his father dying like that was traumatizing but I don't like when people assume that you absolutely cannot overcome your traumas and that your life is horrible for the rest of your life. That kind of attitude isn't healthy or right towards the victim of trauma(s). I have complex PTSD and I'm doing perfectly fine now, I'm actually the happiest I have been. Sure, my life has been hard and traumatic but it's not ruined.
That poor little baby who was beaten to death by that monster... It's sickening. I have a 4 year old and 3 year old. Sure, they can be frustrating, but it's truly my worst nightmare that any harm would come to them. Also, not that it really matters, but one is adopted and I love her exactly the way i love my bio kiddo. Only mentioning that since Victoria was the adopted daughter of Ariel.
I've had almost the same thing that happen to her my mom ex Jason c Culbertson killed a child that wasn't even born after he was drunk broke through the window and I wasn't even there to protect them.
It’s honestly a miracle nobody died in the Xuxa Park incident. Was honestly expecting to hear the worst but I think the show itself being the only thing beyond the set not to survive is better than I thought could have happened.
The crew was absolutely on top of everything to get all those kids out with minor injuries and no losses, especially on a set like that and everyone all over the place doing their own thing.
My jaw dropped the moment you explained the Xuxa Park disaster. It was a story barely told outside of Brazil (I'm not from there), and I'm glad this has been publicized, because it is deeply disturbing.
My mother once met Ingrid Cruz (the reporter for the Maritza Martin murder) at a hair salon once. She apparently suffered from PTSD from the incident and quit her job soon after.
@@aceous99 I felt worse for Emilio. You have a guy who's daughter killed herself, and then reporters bombarding you with some of the most insensitive questions of all time; and last the person you blame the most just randomly showed up? He really needed help.
Good she deserves to have PTSD after that. You wouldn't like it if someone bombarded you about a dead relative over said relatives grave. What a bitch.
I remember watching the video uncensored and man it's insane. But she deserved it. That poor little girl didn't deserve such a terrible mother like that
@@coffeecrimegal5968 my thoughts exactly, lol. white privilege, justice, equality, black lives matter.... these buzzwords never indicate something good lol
For all the baseball fans out there. The Shannon Stone event is very likely what caused Josh Hamiltons relapse. I don’t think he ever forgave himself for that even though it’s obvious not something he could’ve helped
No doubt about it. He was never the same player after that, of all the players for that to happen to, it was him with the crippling addiction problems. Just a tragedy all around
The baseball one reminded me of my childhood friend Mike. He went with his dad to buy something at a corner store, but when his dad got out of the car, he was hit by an oncoming car, flung across the road, and hit again by another vehicle. In the process he was beheaded by the impacts. All right in front of Mike. He lives with that vision in his mind to this day. I can't barely imagine.
Nothing is more blood boiling and vile in this episode than that child murderer who ended little Victoria's life so soon. I'm glad that subhuman will never see the light again. And Shannon's story is sad and heart wrenching beyond words too, he deserves that statue erected in his memory 🙌
@@user-oh5gz4ue6r overt for a child killer?? One of the worst threats facing our society today is us always having to be politically correct. We need to start calling out criminals like these using the worst titles possible to express the true depravity of their actions. If you ask me, 'subhuman' is too kind of a word for such criminal. And please we also need to stop throwing the R word around for basically any reason, this will make it lose its actual meaning. Hope you got what I'm trying to say.
"We would grant you a restraining order, but we don't want to make that person upset." *Brilliant legal logic in play* "We know he threatened to kill you, but we are worried that if we grant a restraining order against him, he WILL kill you. However, by not granting the restraining order, you have no legal cause to keep him at bay. Good luck."
Restraining orders don't do jack 💩 it's only a peace of paper that says to stay away from someone and no contact and if they violate that they can face consequences. On the other hand if they gave the person a restraining order that person might get upset and take drastic measures to cause harm to that person they were told to stay away from 🤦 stupidity at best. It's if a parent tells their child not to do something it makes them want to do it even more. Don't speak on things you clearly can't comprehend
That actually does make a lot of sense honestly. I had to flee the state before cause someone my family had a restraining order against wasn't worried about a peace of paper. It won't protect you.
Yep. Restraining orders work against relatively normal people who are so bad at contrlling their emotions that they are losing control and are escalating the situation. So in such a case they are brought back to reality, like "what have I become", or "Oops, I will have troubles with the law, I should step back"... But it won't work against a psycho. That guy didn't care that he will spend the rest of his life in jail, obviously a restraining order wouldn't have stopped him either. I do know a few recent cases where there was a restarining order against a perpetrator and he simply ignored it and went and killed the victim.

Honestly the fact that Shannon was dying and his first thought was of his son's safety really speaks to his character
100% agree. i cant even imagine how the son felt in the moment as well. i’ve never gotten emotional with these type of videos but that story got to me
I can't imagine the pain. But it shows how amazing this man was as a father. Thinking of their children first and their lives second.
that man just had terrible luck... he really does deserve that statue and hope his son is okay
Imagine being the player who threw the ball short. I bet he thinks about it often.
I think it makes it more sad because it looks like his son was about to catch it in his glove anyway
The Shannon Stone story made me so sad. Imagine going to the ballpark with your child, and a star athlete throws a ball to them. You'd be so happy. To end like this is tragedy.
Even worse when you find out he was most likely killed for his organs, the hospital he was sent to has a history of harvesting.
That shit legit made me tear up man.
Dude, I totally forgot about xuxa! I've actually seen this syndicated on cable TV here in America. There used to be some stupid joke we'd say to one another based on her and Im sure it was rude,but I don't remember what it was and I don't feel like I've missed out on anything by that.

You also can’t forget the guilt Hamilton likely went through, with his playful gesture to make a kid happy accidentally getting someone killed instead.

Shannon Stones short lived state of mind after such an injury is absolutely rare in such cases and despite that, he dedicated his last clear thoughts to his son. What a great father ...

I was so relieved to hear that everyone escaped the Xuxa Park event alive...my heart was sinking when you mentioned the children in the ferris wheel - thank god the staff came to the rescue just in time!!
Honestly I think the reason everyone survived was because they were really on top of the situation. Even the staff member who ran out to try to extinguish the flames when the fire began is evidence that they were very observant. Quick and courageous action on all parties is exactly how situations like these should be handled.
Yeah I was waiting for the worst. Was so relieved to hear no one died.
I'm from Brazil, and.. What I know is that, Xuxa was the one of first people to see the fire, and because the spaceship was made of plastic, it spread really fast.
No one got injuries, and to this day, it's considered one of the most disasters in television here in Brazil.
Xuxa had others show's after, but never using this type of thing again.

It was a miracle. That child was at the edge of the cliff towards death. No, they would not let him die. The outcome was happy, although some were wounded, there were no fatalities, so bless the Lord. This shows that Children are blessed gifts from god
as a brazilian viewer I never expected you to talk about my country’s media, you actually could make a whole series about brazilian tv, we had a tv reporter who commissioned hitmans just so he could have more gruesome crimes to broadcast, the crew would literally arrive before the police and start recording and disturbing the scene

To catch a predator being cancelled for doing a public service is wild. How can it even be legal to sue them?
Mainly because their practices were shoddy and sometimes downright illegal, leaving the official prosecutors open to their legal proceedings against the perps failing. There's been numerous occasions where the TCAP "investigations" led to offenders not being charged or even being acquitted due to tainted evidence or straight-up entrapment.
As problematic as it sounds, even predators have a right to due process, and some vigilante show ain't helping the authorities in prosecuting these sickos one bit - sometimes they actually help the perps.
Because they weren't law enforcement, and the system ended up having to free literally everyone the show "caught". It was televised vigilante justice at BEST. Just because it involves kids doesn't mean you get to take the law into your own hands.
@@FringeSpectre it’s all on video, and they have actual police involved in every string, so not sure what you’re talking about. The problem is the justice system doesn’t care about pedophiles, especially when they have money. The entire show ended because a rich, affluential man was caught and killed himself. They all should have got awards, but instead they were shut down because a dead pedophiles with money and power was more important than helping children. Way to defend the pedophiles though, good knowing where you stand 🤣😂

Typical liberal bullshit. He jumped in front of the other guy to steal the ball and I'm supposed to feel sorry for him? Play stupid games win stupid prizes
Agreed. He has my utmost respect.
You can make an argument that the love of his son is what kept him alive those few minutes, Just to make sure he was okay
The power of parenthood from a parent that truly cares. He is a role model for mothers and fathers.
Houdini always said it was immoral to force an audience to participate in what could be a death sentence, so his feats and stunts were always so meticulously planned that they were no more dangerous than if he were sitting on a couch at home. The other two escape artists may have wanted to learn a thing or two from him instead of wanting to outperform him.

It seems crazy to me that little planning was done? As in, he didn't look into the box's materials or its construction, the weight/amount/set time of the concrete, the amount of time before O2 is depleted/CO2 builds-up, back-up plans, etc.? Seems kind of stupid to not prepare your stunt, especially one that is so dangerous. Like you say, I think Houdini was much more meticulous and well thought-out.
@@binatitagain also using concrete instead of just dirt. The plan was obviously for him to already be out of the box before they were finished pouring the concrete but concrete is over twice as heavy as just loose dirt.
I'm not sure how big the hole was exactly but it was probably around 2-3 cubic meters if not more. That's around 6 tonnes of concrete versus 2-3 tonnes just dirt.

The buried alive trick absolutely is terrifying! My grandfather worked for our local water department. Once on an instillation of water lines, two of his crew died because the sides of the trench collapsed on them and they suffocated in the dirt before the rest of the crew could dig them out. My grandfather lived into his 90s and was haunted by their deaths!
So weird, my great grandfather who is 93 told me a very similar story from when he worked building the railroad across California.. he said that it wasn’t unusual to have either a death or catastrophic injury daily. I wonder how common this sort of thing happening was back then due to how lax safety used to be on job sites and in factories.

Even after the tragedy her career survived. After a few years, she presented several more shows. She was a staple of children's TV shows up to around 2009 (my memory is fuzzy on this part). She even had a couple with the same level of elaborate scenography. But I believe with not the same capacity of children on it.
Started in a couple of movies for kids and even launched a series of DVDs with kids' songs.
And after that, she took some time away from TV and when she returned moved to do more regular talk shows and presenting a version of Dancing with the Stars at some point.
She is virtually retired, and still very much loved by the several generations of kids that grew up with versions of her show.

Fun fact about Xuxa: she worked for brazilian television since 1979, but when internet popularized in Brazil people started to spread tons of creepypastas about her (if you played her CD's backwards it would spawn devils etc) and even impute that the fire at her studio was caused because a "pact" she did with Satan. But when Stranger Things aired in 2016, Netflix did a collab promotional video with her where she mocks the cursed aura people gave her, a true queen herself
I remember watching morning cartoons as a kid in the U.S. and her show seemed to just come out of nowhere. It was like the channel was taken over by a circus performer in the land of Oz. I had no idea what it was. I figured she was Russian. Haha. She was clearly popular and had a great energy about her though. I also remember a TV show that came on about the same time where kids would don velcro suits and run around a maze or something sticking Nintendo video games to their bodies. It was a fun time.

The United States of America is governed by pedophiles. There are more pedophiles within 1 square mile of the District of Columbia than anywhere else in the USA. You never go after pedophiles on national television. Pedophiles are an endangered species that need to be protected by the FBI, local/district law enforcement, and mainstream news media against slander from the peasant class. This is the reason why Jeffrey Epstein's Client List is a matter of national security. I hope this clears your question.
It's because it didn't follow "standard procedure." They argued that the crew being there ready to blast him on national television was just the additional push he needed to end his life instead of complying. The sister kept saying that by being there in the way they were they acted as prosecutors, judge, and executioner. I think it's stupid, but I also sort of see what she is saying. It's a shame really.

Looking at the scene made me think if the guy on his side couldn't hold him from falling... Regardless, how could he be so reckless into diving head first for a ball?
I'm not censoring him, I'm simply thinking about what drove him to do that instead of leaving the ball and thinking about his son.
@Ruffus Goodman caught up in the moment and wanted to make his son proud I guess.

@@redrubyrose618 They did get hurt, it's just that none of them died. Not sure if the extent of the injuries is known.
@@boianko Is very documented, because the channel paied all the treatment for the injuried ones. The two most famous cases are the Xuxa security guard that rescued several children, had pulmonar problems from the smoke inhalation and the 7 years-old girl that was traped on a ferris wheel that was very close of the space ship and had 2nd and 3rd burns.
Thinking about how set fires usually go this is spot-on. Remember Great white and that other band? They were not so lucky.
The fact that it only took seconds for the Xuxa set to go on fire was so scary. Literally only a few moments and everything was gone. It’s a miracle no one was killed.
That's the funny thing about fires that burn that fast. They generally don't last long enough to cause too many serious injuries.
Like with the Hindenburg, for instance, the fire injuries were all minor burns with only a couple of people getting 2nd degree burns. The worst injuries were from some who fell, but no one died and none needed extensive care afterwards.
Just for comparison, same country, get the Boate Kiss (a nightclub) fire, where again it happened in a matter of seconds due improper use of fireworks indoors.
Most casualties weren't due burning, but intoxication. Many guys went out of there unharmed, talked to reporters and went back to help rescue people trapped in there. They weren't even scorched at all.
They died hours later due intoxication. Those gases generated by the fire were as deadly as any chemical weapons.
Moreover, fire certificates were expired, most emergency doors were blocked (maybe to avoid sneaking? Idk) and the nightclub used foam on the ceiling to help contain the noise. Turns out foam is as inflammable as petrol.
It is honestly so horrifying to think that in a few moments if that fire didn't go off when it did and would've gone off later, Xuxa might've been caught in the flames herself. I'm glad no one was killed in the fire however, and I'm also glad they got that kid out when they did
Seriously. What did they paint that spaceship with? Thermite? It went up way too fast.

I had never heard the full backstory behind To Catch a Predator being cancelled. It's super weird how everyone seemed to dogpile on the show because of the guys death, but I feel like the fact that he went to that length means he must have been guilty. Especially since they were a DA, I think they would know that they clearly did something wrong and weren't going to get away with it.
his suicide was the consequences of his own actions
Yes, that was new to me also, and vexes me. The show was absolutely NOT in the wrong for driving a child predator to self delete. Wealth and power protects itself, I mean, to this day. Check any news outlet, even "news" outlets... 'round and 'round it goes. The folks at the top are protected at any cost.
Being a not only a “chomo” in prison but also a DA…? As sad as it is, death is literally the better option. As opposed to being beaten into a seizure daily, waking up covered in your own blood, piss, shit and puke, day in day out. He knew that was coming.

Even if it’s flawed and controversial… if these men weren’t trying to fuck kids they wouldn’t get caught and wouldn’t be on the show🤷♀️ they all got what they deserved.

The Xuxa Park story is honestly an incredible survival story. I was terrified more people had died, especially with cases like the Nightstation Club Fire but to see everyone made it out without dying is honestly amazing.
God the Nightstation fire. My parents were supposed to be at that, knew the band personally. My mom was getting a tattoo done that day and didn’t go. They lost so many friends that day, and if they went I probably wouldn’t have been born. This was a huge factor in my dad becoming a firefighter

Was anyone badly burnt or was it only minor injuries?
And me too, I'm glad. i thought the little boy stuck in the seat was done for.

Tbh I view the gut feeling as your brain linking up all the small details and tryna warn you without flooding the aware part of your brain with information
Your "gut" feeling is there to keep you alive...just like fear
@@gregdowd939 Exactly, your gut is known as a "second brain" for a reason.
As soon as you said the Xuxa incident was due to electrical failure, it touched so close to home. My family very recently just went through an electrical fire tragedy, though all of us, our animals and majority of our material items got out safe- There is no smell that has tainted my memory more than the smell of an electrical fire burning. Electrical fires have a distinct, traumatizing smell.
During a storm a light pole went out near our house. Something about a switch? Well it routed the excess electricity to our house and essentially overcharged the whole household. Light fixtures amped with a hum. Popping sounds were heard everywhere, surge protectors melted, then came that smell as you said. Our house didn't burn down, but that smell tainted the house for some time.
Like burning metal, whatever plastics from the outlets. Its such a distinct smell I will never forget.
Man the firefighter dad's story made me tear up, it's so sad that a man making a minor miscalculation trying to make his son happy ended so tragically
The most impressive thing about the Xuxa incident: No one was seriously injured, the only injuries were from smoke inhalation, which also means they all made full recoveries.
Except for the kid that was trapped in the ferris wheel, he got second and third degree burns and his airways almost got completely blocked, but thankfully he survived.
The staff including Xuxa were pretty responsive to the fire, rushed to get the kids out and got to the trapped kid in time despite the absolute chaos and intense heat surrounding them. They did the best they could given the circumstances, that’s why nobody died. At least in my opinion anyway.

I hope that baby girl is in a better place, far and away from this cruel, evil world. Rest in Paradise Victoria🕊️
The Shannon Stone story is just unspeakably heartbreaking. He wanted to catch the ball for his son like his own father did for him when he was a child. I hope his son is doing alright. Josh Hamilton too.
RIP
@downbaddav2296how so?
Lol he reached too far over the rail because the ball was going to someone else, and he wanted to steal THAT guys kids memory. Fuck him.
parkour landings saves lives.
(i'am half-joking. half-serious.)
/hj /hsrs 👍
I died laughing when the guy was trying to be buried alive with a python but it had to be called off because the snake immediately tried to kill him
lol
Honestly his own fault for not researching those snakes, that's exactly what they do! They suffocate their prey lol
The look on his face when they pulled him out was that of instant regret. His eyes looked like 50 cent pieces.
That was just hella stupid all I could do is shake my head what’s up with people trying to knock on deaths door in the guise of living their best life it makes no sense
😂 the way he jumped out with the snake wrapped around his neck
Worst magician ever, when that snake wrapped round his neck I couldn’t stop laughing, what an idiot 😂
The baseball story is sooo sad. Feel horrible for everyone involved. I’m sure the pitcher feels overwhelming guilt even though it wasn’t his fault. I worked at a baseball field and it’s part of the fun when they toss the ball out for fans to keep and happens at least twice a game every game. You’d never expect it to end in tragedy. I can’t imagine the trauma for his son and the rest of the witnesses.
Hopefully now they put a safety net
I actually cried. 🫡
I heard the team briefly considered ending throwing balls to fans, but Shannon’s family said no, he wouldn’t want a beloved tradition like that to end on his account.
Sadly, the player who threw the ball was a recovering drug addict. He ended up relapsing and I wonder how much this incident had to do with that.
The pitcher didn't toss it lol
I love how the media unilaterally decided to attack to catch a predator. As if certain people of power that practice in the same activities wanted it off the air to not be the next person exposed.
The law is like a spider's web: the little flies get caught but the wasps get away.
But, who owns the media?
@@LSDPband the irish, why do you ask that?
Or perhaps because it actually compromised real cases. In a majority of cases the perps got off on technicalities because the actions of the vigilantes and the show's producers violated the legal process.
@@CatBoxXD Irish ??? They don’t own anything lol it’s the jews
That buried alive thing was remarkable. The fact that he actually survived the cave in is incredible.
When they started showing the buried alive stunt I thought "Oh yeah, I've seen this one, the concrete suddenly moves and the magician dies" and was surprised at the survival. I'd seen the fatal one that had happened where the exact same problem had occurred.
To repeat the same dumb trick that killed someone else a few years prior and not try to fix the bit that went wrong? Pure stupidity.
The last story makes me so mad, so many people failed at their job, so many of them could have helped that poor woman, to have the last memory you have on earth to be of a reporter completely disrespecting your mourning of your daughter must be one of the worst fates there is
This is why I hate the majority of media reporters so much. They don't care for people's privacy or feelings, the just want a gOoD sCoOp
seriously. Cops didn't give her a restraining order because it might upset him more?? what about her safety?!
@truanalain42662 not surprised.
Sometimes you wonder why they even exist. When you need help, they either refused or attack. I feel bad for those with dark skin who are discriminated by them.
Hell, this one lady was very disrespected by the police when she reported an attempted car theft.
Why can't they hire anyone competent these days?
I think she deserved to die, gods will, if a woman never let me have any rights to raising my own daughter who I love very much and finding out she got pregnant at 15 and killed herself under that woman’s care that would be one dead woman, hats off to that man cause he loved his daughter very much and that evil woman didn’t deserve any more days alive
@@truanalain4266you do know a piece of paper saying dont come near me or punishment of 1 year jail time doesnt stop 12 bullets too the face and body yes?
As a woman who physically can’t have kids (after battling cancer) the child abuse Ariel put her daughter through made me angry and sick. Punch a wall, scream or throw something if you need to, but never, ever harm a child. What an absolute monster 😒☹️
Yep I agree. For those that find themselves getting angry I beg you go to the bathroom and remind yourself that the things that may be annoying you are literally your babys childhood and these memories will stay with them forever once they have grown up and moved out. You will get plenty of time to yourself later in life. There is no excuse to abuse children. None at all. Ask for help if you can't control yourself. Save your child. Be honest and ask for help. It's ok to ask for help. It is never ok to abuse a child.
2 years old, 2 years. Beaten to death? May God have no mercy on her soul
@@AboveWater This is why I hope I never have children and will always stay far away from vulnerable people, because I have mental issues that makes me lash out..
@@AboveWater reminds of that white gay couple that killed their adopted blacks kids by driving off a cliff or the more recent case of the the white family locking their black kids in an outhouse
@@AboveWaterit’s much more difficult than that but still agree. The only problem I have is the fact that she obviously wasn’t mentally well enough to have kids in the first place. Like at this point it’s not an adoption/foster problem. It’s deadass a parent problem.
It’s important to note that in the William Conradt TCAP case, he had actually committed a crime by engaging in sexual chats with an underage child, and the police ultimately made he decision to go to his house after learning of his position as an assistant DA. They also found after the fact that he had CP and evidence of corruption that actually led to jail time for others on his computer, which is most likely contributed to his decision to take his own life. IMO the media firestorm that resulted after his suicide only led to 25 horrible people walking free and didn’t actually accomplish anything useful. I feel no sympathy for him.
This is why I fucking hate vigilantes both on tv and irl; like you’re not the police and you setting your own personal „sting“ to catch them in the act to have them arrested is borderline entrapment (which is illegal) and any evidence for that person would most likely be inadmissible due to people being ignorant and playing police officer themselves. So yes I’m glad these shows are getting cancelled; they’re morally grey and in the end they inadvertently fucked a case and released 2 dozen criminals into the world. Anyone who takes the law into their own hands should be in prison
@@FlexedNoose it’s not entrapment, TCAP worked with the police and stayed uninvolved in he arrests of the suspects, and the evidence being dropped for the 25 other men in the sting is the result of an incompetent DA who fell prey to a media firestorm. Not gonna cry over a dead pedo.
@@FlexedNooseI mean if these cops would do their job normal people like us wouldn’t have to do it for them

You probably get this a lot, but it is absolutely insane how you cover topics that I've never even remotely heard about. I spend a lot of time watching RUclips videos about mysteries like these and always see the same few topics discussed. But your videos contain obscure topics and extremely dedicated writing and research. ❤

He’s incredibly smart and resourceful! He’s so well-spoken too, and not at all arrogant in the least, especially for such a young guy. He makes such original content, it’s always great.
You remember the three women who were held captive for a decade in Cleveland, Ohio? The local news show discovered the man, who tortured them, made an appearance on their program. He was part of a band that performed on a segment to show off local talent. Although not a killer, it’s still chilling.
Thats so interesting. Do you know where the clip can be found?
He might have technically been a killer. They were preparing to investigate him for forcing the three women to have abortions or forcibly miscarrying fetuses he had conceived when he killed himself in prison.
I was in rehab and read a book about one of the girls. I think it was called finding home or finding me. That book was so good but I feel terrible for 3girls
I was a little girl growing up in Ohio when I first heard about that story. It messed with my head
@@Havanah-ov4yt I was a teenager who lived in Cleveland. Trust me, I know the feeling.
Seriously 5 days after adopting that sweet baby girl?? FIVE DAYS! I hope that couple rots in prison. Making her walk in public in underwear and beating her just because she was sick, threw up, and didn’t have an appetite. That story made me physically sick and teary eyed.
I almost died where Bill Shirk didn't. The snake wrapping around his neck right away was pretty hysterical to me.
As a Brazilian I never ever expected to see the xuxa park incident on a foreign video, but here we are. It was a very very hard thing for people that were there to go through. She spent some time away from the tv after that... And that's understandable

I remember a Xuxa TV show on here in the states. My wife even had a Xuxa doll. So glad no one was killed in that tragedy.

Wasn't she with Senna?

36:48 MASSIVE props to the camera man who in a moment of intense panic took the time to set the camera down instead of dropping it. incredible dedication to their profession.
Gotta save that money
I did some digging and it was in a Latin American channel called Telemundo very popular where I’m from need to ask my grandma if she saw it go down on tv
@@mertyuip06hey my family watches the show
Oh I just thought he hit the deck behind their car in case Nunez started shooting at them. I can’t really tell whose feet those are at the end walking away though, so if it was Nunez, then I guess the cameraman wouldn’t have been safe regardless. But idk.
Its an independent news team. Those cameras were over $10,000.
The Shannon Stone story is a testament of how much he loved his son. His last words were concerning his concern for his son. 😢 I hope his son will remember his father and be as good a father as his was.
Someone dropped the son's Twitter and apparently he's a baseball player himself now and his header is a picture of him and his dad. So I think he carries his father's memory very well
Burying yourself alive is the stupidest thing ever
as a local to the Arlington area where the Texas Rangers stadium is, I think the statue honoring Shannon was one of the greatest decisions they could’ve made
it reminds everyone of the love that man had for his son every time they pass by, what a way to keep a memory alive
Probably helped keep legal fees low.
Don't care for sports myself but that definitely was a good decision
Man that story made me so sad
It's crazy to hear Arlington on a RUclips channel like this lmao. It's great that this tragedy is still being talked about
That's why I love Baseball. It has the most passion and soul for the love of the game and its fans. You wouldn't see an NFL team do the same
my worst fear is getting buried alive so watching the section on those stunts made that fear feel very valid. it's tragic that Joe died in such a horrible way and knowing his death could've been prevented if people weren't negligent breaks my heart.
I also want to thank you for making such amazing content and bringing attention to things that range from unsettling to horrifying and tragic.
Being buried alive SHOULD be a fear to have. Once you feel drawn towards it, get help lol
Just imagine the suffocating pressure of the earth completely cutting off any possible air supply as the dirt begins filling your mouth, vomiting and screaming worsening it as the mud rushes to your lungs and burns your throat with its unforgiving dirt. Slowly suffocating in a grueling and desperate manner as you slowly accept your helpless fate
wuh? u have a fear of being inside the ground?
His death could have been prevented by just staying at home watching the tellie
Well you’re not a magician so you shouldn’t worry. In this century we now have the technology to differentiate between a coma and actual death.
Very telling how the media spoke down so harshly on the people that were AFTER child predators.

I was at the Rangers game where Shannon Stone died. My dad was a huge Rangers fan at the time and Hamilton was my favorite player--tossing his catches into the stands is something he used to do pretty regularly iirc. I was on the upper deck on 3rd base side and watched Shannon fall. I was 11 at the time, and it pretty radically altered my perception of life.
That's a tough memory, I'm sorry you had too see that.
Hamilton is trash
@@tyleranderson1337 I was 11
The facts that everyone was turning against To Catch A Predator and the disgusting monster's sister was defending her evil brother are just absolutely sickening. Imagine trying to defend a pedophile and everyone is okay with it. That is so angering.

The Shannon Stone story hurts the most cause not only was the sons life ruined, Josh Hamilton never recovered from that moment a son without a father, a family without a husband, and Josh Hamiltons career ultimately derailed, a truly devastating moment
@redkirigiri4112 he watched his dad fall to his death?
@redkirigiri4112 my bed edge lord, I’m sure losing your father directly in front of your eyes doesn’t effect your psyche
Definitely. Hamilton was never the same after that and he also fell back into his addictions from it. From what I remember he was pretty clean for a few years until a few months after that incident
@redkirigiri4112"Impossible to overcome" IS in fact the definition of a life ruined. Ooof.🤦🏾
From what I read his son is doing perfectly fine, his life is not "ruined" of course his father dying like that was traumatizing but I don't like when people assume that you absolutely cannot overcome your traumas and that your life is horrible for the rest of your life. That kind of attitude isn't healthy or right towards the victim of trauma(s). I have complex PTSD and I'm doing perfectly fine now, I'm actually the happiest I have been. Sure, my life has been hard and traumatic but it's not ruined.
Such unnecessary censoring of footage that is available uncensored... ON RUclips
🤦♂
That poor little baby who was beaten to death by that monster... It's sickening. I have a 4 year old and 3 year old. Sure, they can be frustrating, but it's truly my worst nightmare that any harm would come to them. Also, not that it really matters, but one is adopted and I love her exactly the way i love my bio kiddo. Only mentioning that since Victoria was the adopted daughter of Ariel.
I've had almost the same thing that happen to her my mom ex Jason c Culbertson killed a child that wasn't even born after he was drunk broke through the window and I wasn't even there to protect them.
I have a 3 year old too and that story made me physically ill.
girl nobody cares about your kids. why would you make a toddlers murder about YOUR unharmed kids.
It’s honestly a miracle nobody died in the Xuxa Park incident. Was honestly expecting to hear the worst but I think the show itself being the only thing beyond the set not to survive is better than I thought could have happened.
The crew was absolutely on top of everything to get all those kids out with minor injuries and no losses, especially on a set like that and everyone all over the place doing their own thing.
I love XuXa Park! It was a great show! Those poor traumatized children! I remember the incident !
@@savanahdahlsten3149 Wow. Always wild hearing from people who were either present for, or who otherwise witnessed at the time, events like these.

My jaw dropped the moment you explained the Xuxa Park disaster.
It was a story barely told outside of Brazil (I'm not from there), and I'm glad this has been publicized, because it is deeply disturbing.
My mother once met Ingrid Cruz (the reporter for the Maritza Martin murder) at a hair salon once. She apparently suffered from PTSD from the incident and quit her job soon after.
she was bad and should feel bad
@@aceous99 I felt worse for Emilio. You have a guy who's daughter killed herself, and then reporters bombarding you with some of the most insensitive questions of all time; and last the person you blame the most just randomly showed up?

Good she deserves to have PTSD after that. You wouldn't like it if someone bombarded you about a dead relative over said relatives grave. What a bitch.
I remember watching the video uncensored and man it's insane. But she deserved it. That poor little girl didn't deserve such a terrible mother like that
Ariel Robinson was a teacher at our school. I heard stories from many people of her having outbursts long before she killed her adopted daughter
Honestly, she is so obviously unhinged, how was she ever able to adopt? Chat poor innocent child. Nobody deserves to die like that.

For all the baseball fans out there. The Shannon Stone event is very likely what caused Josh Hamiltons relapse. I don’t think he ever forgave himself for that even though it’s obvious not something he could’ve helped
No doubt about it. He was never the same player after that, of all the players for that to happen to, it was him with the crippling addiction problems. Just a tragedy all around
I cannot imagine the grief and sadness felt by the player
Now this is a fact I did not know. How awful.
I have just found your channel and wow this is so great. I’m surprised you aren’t on VICE. Keep up the good work and you now have a subscriber.
The baseball one reminded me of my childhood friend Mike. He went with his dad to buy something at a corner store, but when his dad got out of the car, he was hit by an oncoming car, flung across the road, and hit again by another vehicle. In the process he was beheaded by the impacts. All right in front of Mike. He lives with that vision in his mind to this day. I can't barely imagine.
Fucking hell.
Just got worse and worse

Nothing is more blood boiling and vile in this episode than that child murderer who ended little Victoria's life so soon. I'm glad that subhuman will never see the light again. And Shannon's story is sad and heart wrenching beyond words too, he deserves that statue erected in his memory 🙌

"We would grant you a restraining order, but we don't want to make that person upset." *Brilliant legal logic in play*
"We know he threatened to kill you, but we are worried that if we grant a restraining order against him, he WILL kill you. However, by not granting the restraining order, you have no legal cause to keep him at bay. Good luck."
Restraining orders don't do jack 💩 it's only a peace of paper that says to stay away from someone and no contact and if they violate that they can face consequences. On the other hand if they gave the person a restraining order that person might get upset and take drastic measures to cause harm to that person they were told to stay away from 🤦 stupidity at best. It's if a parent tells their child not to do something it makes them want to do it even more. Don't speak on things you clearly can't comprehend
But she has the right to be a bad parent which is ok apparently.
@@salvasanchez-dn6kv not comparable. The mother keeping her daughter from her dad turned out to be right, he was nuts
That actually does make a lot of sense honestly. I had to flee the state before cause someone my family had a restraining order against wasn't worried about a peace of paper. It won't protect you.
Yep. Restraining orders work against relatively normal people who are so bad at contrlling their emotions that they are losing control and are escalating the situation. So in such a case they are brought back to reality, like "what have I become", or "Oops, I will have troubles with the law, I should step back"... But it won't work against a psycho. That guy didn't care that he will spend the rest of his life in jail, obviously a restraining order wouldn't have stopped him either.
I do know a few recent cases where there was a restarining order against a perpetrator and he simply ignored it and went and killed the victim.
