The principal initially was going to stay until the freshman class from 1998/1999 graduated, but then he stayed another 20 years - until every single child enrolled in that district for 1998/1999 graduated. So very, very admirable.
Huh
@@dee8505 The principle was going to quit, but he stayed until everyone that went thru the shooting graduated.
That’s a heroic move
@@Itz__Izumy its a heroic move??
Why would that take 20 years?
That guy who learned to walk again is a true inspiration.
Yes, it is not an easy task from physical wounds to nerve wounds
The guy who said he felt like a “coward” he was just a boy. He didn’t know what to do in that situation. He did the only thing he could do. The cowards were the attackers.
Craig lost his sister and his 2 best friends. He lost some of the closest people. I feel so bad for everyone. This is just horrific
Had two people killed right next to him, a few others nearby and his sister was the first one killed. And the last conversation he had with her was an argument. Can’t imagine how he can find peace in his life after all that. That would NEVER go away.

@@viniBR232bro your like 30, be productive
@@viniBR232your mom's real hot too, takes a trophy
@@OMEGASZN Look man, you are 100% correct about being productive, not gonna argue there or say if I am or not. But I am extremely amazed at how you guessed my age with absurd accuracy. You are very good at that.
So homie just had a website dedicated to openly talking about unaliving people and no one thought maybe this is an unhinged person that needs serious help?? TF??
I bet all these students who survived this shooting still get their hearts shattered every time they hear of another mass shooting that's taken place, especially when it's taken place at a school...
You are 100% right, but if there's anyone that has a say in the change of gun laws, it is the survivors and some of the bravest ones are working towards change.
@@abbymkw12 no thanks
Can’t tell you how much I appreciate this. As if victims of shootings are the people in charge.
Nothing cowardly about surviving. But the survivors guilt is real. Also, the pain in Daniel's father's voice when talking about there being "no last school bus" is heartbreaking. I couldn't imagine how that must've felt.
he is a coward it should have been him not his sister how can he live with himself, maybe some rope?
100% agree. It’s the Opposite of cowardice. Bravery if anything.
Only cowards were the privileged weak boys who couldn't fight but pull a trigger
This entire event was devastating. 😊❤
When the birds flew overhead at the end of the..... I felt that to the core. Poor guy, as well as the rest of the families that lost a child.
The sad truth is that nothing seems to have changed, it is still happening.
Man hearing Daniel's father talk is absolutely gut wrenching what they went through. Him waiting on that last bus to come and then to find out it wasn't coming is just 💔
I had the opportunity to speak with him, he’s an incredibly kind man.
@@Provos7777 ya very nice guy
My heart absolutely broke and I broke down with it. How devastating and unfair. The picture of him as a little boy :/
truly heartbreaking
@@Difrentstyles Incredibly strong too, how he remains positive & true to faith amazes me.
@@klaudiaarriera9989 What happened to Daniel & the other kids is horrific. Rachel Scott really got to me as well.
I know Craig will never see this but, never feel ashamed of what happened in that Library. What happened to your friends was out of your control and done, and you did what you had to so you could be here to tell us about them today. Rest In Peace to your two friends man
RIP to his sister Rachel too.❤️
Well said.
Did you watch the whole thing? His sister was murdered too!
why won't craig ever see this?
Thanks - Craig
We had a guy just like Dylan and Eric in high school and this was a couple years before Columbine. I remember telling my Mom, “I’m always really nice to Craig because if he decides to do something crazy, hopefully he’ll tell me to stay home that day.”
Haha good idea
Or, just be kind to everybody regardless
@@aaronscarpa7469 That worked out real well for those 13 nice kids and kind teachers, didn’t it?
Keep those rose colored glasses on though 👍🏻
@@barbarossa1780 in interviews there was one guy who they literally let go when they recognized him and remembered that he was chill with them
@@aaronscarpa7469 Smart fella
They looked like such nice kids in their photos.. its sickening on what people can do.. RIP all the victims
Betrayed by people they never thought would be there to hurt them
Thats what bullieing does it makes you hate people. I had same feeling just not a gun
That's what happens when you give kids prescription drugs. Americas answer to everything drugs
@@henkstoomflat8840thats never an excuse also, also there are numerous reports out there that say that these they were the ones bullying.
Never judge a book by its cover!
Craig Scott had to witness the massacre in the library, and witness his best friends get killed there as well. He's definitely an inspiration, but you can just see it in his eyes, that he's really messed up, even after all these years. He also lost his sister in the shooting. He probably suffers from PTSD, and probably can't sleep at night, unless he's heavily medicated. Poor guy. I hope he's doin alright these days.
@Jay Iidd why is that funny?
He broke my heart. I can't imagine his pain.
@Jay Iidd you are heart less to be putting a laughing emoji on this if I could call you certain names without getting deleted I would your an abomination of a human being. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@@alonsoswife I cried listening to him. So sad and terrible 😢
@@ramus9 me too
The young man with the dream of paralysis and then to be paralyzed after this sent chills to my soul
I had a fear of being in a lockdown little did I know 6 months later there was a lockdown at my school
If people are wondering how long trauma lasts,......it lasts a lifetime. Ask anyone who endured a traumatic event and survived. You deal with it but it never leaves you. PTSD sets in soon after if not immediately.
Not always . Sometimes it can mainifest years later
@@sarahwynn6486hi very true as you try to forget and life goes on then you can be trying to sleep and you can’t,certain smells can set off memories and then it affects how you try to live your life.Terrible anxiety but you don’t know why ? You try to get help but no one is able to work out what’s wrong you just get treated for anxiety.Over forty years later before they say Hyper vigilant PTSD.X
Yes I know, you learn to live with it.
That was a horrible, HORRIBLE day. I was a high school senior in Georgia that day, and many of us, including me, just felt this ominous fear of whether surviving to graduation was even possible. I believe innocence was lost that day from then on.
Ironically enough there was another school shooting in Georgia in suburban Atlanta just a short time after Columbine. Although nobody was killed and only a few injured, it still was chilling because it made you wonder how many copycats it would inspire. Thankfully things calmed down for awhile after that, then 9/11 happened and then domestic terrorism became the most serious threat. Then Virginia Tech and Sandy Hook, Parkland and a few others. Now Uvalde (sorry if I butchered the spelling) then Nashville and now more recently wasn’t there somewhere else?
I agree. I was a freshman in metro Atlanta that year....I didn't want to go to school for a while. In ways, it made bullying worse because anyone daring to wear a lot of black or, god forbid a trench coat, was absolutely pulverized. It was awful 😭
The pain in the face of Daniels father all these years later at the end of this video as those geese started flying by... it's absolutely heart wrenching. Tom loved his boy more than anything, and Daniel was such a kind and gentle soul. It just breaks my heart.
The parents of the victims should have sued the parents of the killers
@@dawn2069 i don't agree with that... unless the parents actually knew their plans, then you can't hold them criminally liable. Besides, i bet their lives haven't exactly been smooth sailing as a result of their sons' actions.
@@dawn2069 The parents had nothing to do with what their kids did. There's interviews on one of them. She feels guilty enough.
@@Jackson-pu7gd unless the kids are mentally ill, how far does the apple fall from the tree?? Their parents were severely negligent. I've seen it growing up, the Eddie Haskell scenario; and they were Sued.
@@dawn2069 That makes no sense.
That's got to be the worst feeling waiting for your kid after knowing what just happen at the school and not knowing if your kids are walking out. Sad
Makes me absolutely nauseous thinking about that.
Chills
shut up. its not sad. its funny
That is the one thing I would never wish on my worst enemy. I have 3 kids who are still toddlers and I dread this happening. That has to be the most soul draining thing for a parent to do. you know there are dead kids because of a shooting but you wonder for an hour or so, whether or not, your own kid is the one that is lying dead on the ground. I will never be able to imagine that kind of worry and I hope to God I never experience this or any parents for that matter.
@@brantleylangford9192sthu edgelord, you aint "cool".
Crying for Daniels dad, I hope he receives the help and support he needs ❤️❤️
I’ll never forget this, hearing all those kids and teachers and seeing the raw footage puts and even more eerie feeling in my stomach 😢 RIP to everyone who lost their life this day.
I will never forget the fear that this put into me and my classmates in 5th grade. I hope all the victims and their families find peace with this horrible tragedy
Yeah, I was in 6th grade when it happened. What alot of people are ignorant to is the peoples’ lives that these massacres ruin the most are their own families!’ Yes, the victims’ families’ lives are ruined too, but the actual murderer’s families are screwed up the most. They have to live with guilt, fear, agony etc for what their son did. The Asian dude who was responsible for the Virginia tech shooting in 2007, his family had to move because they were being harassed at their home
I was in the 6th to in they made us watch this in school the whole school
@@keishaburton4994 they made you watch the news feed?
@@nsasupporter7557 I too was in 6th grade. I actually didn’t find out until the next day until our teacher told us that morning.
You should never have known about this being in fifth grade. Whoever told you about this (msm ,parents,friends) they failed you and created many many more shooters. I blame them for all SS’s after this one.
All the kids killed. Would be in their 40’s now if they was alive still
May they all rest in peace
✝️🕯️🕊️
That sweet boy who lost his friends and sister.. You are so brave! Not a coward.
I was born and raised in Denver, lived not too far from columbine high-school. My father did some work for Daniel's father, in turn, I hung out with and spent some time with Daniel as a child. I will never forget this horrific day.
I hope you’re doing well these days. I know you have gone thorough a lot and I know that I’ve never had to go through something like this, but I can guess what it feels like. I feel sorry for you and have a great life. R.I.P to Daniel Mauser.
I remember when this happened. My own daughter was 18 months old at the time and I was watching TV and all of a sudden the news broke and interrupted the scheduled programming. I sat there in utter disbelief. Such a senseless tragedy that seems to repeat itself again and again. RIP to the victims and love and light to the families and survivors.
Wow, we was all wondering what you was doing at that time thanks for Finialy telling us.
Of course it’s gonna “repeat Itself.” This is an event that will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN
I was doing the same. My daughter was a month old. Actually born that March. I remember watching this aswell
And each time it gets worse.
Until Americans actually do something about guns it will continue to happen..
I have a couple of buddies off here on RUclips that lost family members that day...I still can't shake this day...when the anniversary rolls around I just can't...the heartache sinks in once more
The fact that the police just stayed outside and didn’t rush to help these kids is absolutely unbelievable and disgusting
I get what you're saying, but in a situation like that I'm sure it's a lot easier said than done! They had kids in the school still to worry about as well. It wouldn't have been very smart to just run up in there 🤦🏿♂️
They are paid to make the government money,not save lives.
@@TheBigshow000should have been a stealth plan. However forces are clear they are not obliged to lay their lives and body on the line to protect taxpayers.
I live in Texas and the Uvalde police are still being scrutinized how they handled the Uvalde shooting is still being handled is being discussed today
To be fair, it was the first one of its kind. The cops prepared themselves after this
May the people who passed away Rest In Peace and my deepest condolences to their families and friends.
the bullies are the ones who are at fault not the innocent kee-aids dat done nuffin wrongs.
I’ve heard about this shooting but I didn’t know any details up until now. This is horrifying to listen to. I can’t imagine how the students felt. My classmates think I’m being dramatic when I fear a shooting but just imagine yourself in this position.
The survivor's guilt must be brutal for those who got out alive, and those who saw their fellow students/friends die that day.
Peek-a-boo
It's not a bullying issue. It's a mental health issue.
Wrong!!!
@@bradt6740 ?
Its not bullying .
I heard Craig speak and met him over 15 years ago. He came and spoke at teachers meeting for our district. He was still very young at the time obviously. It was so moving listening for to him speak. I felt for him and think of him often and Rachel as well. She was an amazing young lady. So incredibly wise. My heart still breaks for all those young people and there families. As so many other since. Its always in the back of my mind each day as I go to work for the past 20 plus years. I just keep and extra awareness of my surroundings.
My youngest had just started high school. She was home sick that day. We sat together and talked about how scary it was. She started planning that day, finding out how to get out of the school, where best to hide, and it just changed her. It made her more determined to survive through anything. Two years later, on 9-11, she was again home sick (her senior year) and her brother and family also lived with us. We all sat watching and at one point my daughter looked at me and said, "that's it. I can't stay home again. Every time I do, something bad happens." Broke my heart. She grown now, has a senior and a sophomore in high school and a new baby. She taught college biology and now researches. We got through it, but so many haven't since that day. Bless you Craig, walking was the best thing you could do, and I admire you for the courage to do it.

I am so deeply sorry for what u went thro
Acting as if she was one of the surviving students. 🙄😂
A day I’ll never forget. I was in my journalism class which was in our library & we watched this unfold. One of my very good friends grew up in Littleton & was at the middle school close by when they heard all of this going on. Such a tragic day, I still wish they would release the basement tapes so we all can analyze the warning signs they showed.
@@BlackSunHexagram the tapes these two jack-offs made about why they did what they did & other bs.
@@BlackSunHexagram dylan and eric had even more homemade tapes but these were never released to the public and have supposedly been destroyed but i feel like they have to be out there somewhere just for even more evidence to everything that happened
@@heavenleebiersack6743 that's interesting
You can watch the basement tapes on Columbine video archives it’s a RUclips channel
@@leajohnson8441 oh wow thank you for the info!!! God bless y'all!!
Hearing Daniels fathers grief was absolutely heartbreaking. I cant even fathom what it would feel like realizing that no more busses were coming.
Absolutely heartbreaking. My heart goes out to all those that lost their lives and their family and friends. Also to all those that survived for the trauma and survivors guilt you had to go through. What happened was out of your control. You did what you had to to survive. I remember this happening at the time and it’s still as shocking and horrifying today as it was then
This is exactly why bullying needs to be addressed in school.
they weren’t bullied
I was bullied. My kids were bullied. Bullies need to be beaten. No need to kill people who did nothing to you.
But the documentary said they were bullied, they said it a couple of times...
@@jado4prez rewatch the documentary. This one and quite a few others go into detail about the bullying
@@fumanpoo4725 Is that what I said? Pretty sure nothing in my original post said it's ok to kill people
Still so sad. I was 15 when this happened. Set the stage for what was to come. All these mass shootings in schools need to stop.
We need to really address why these violent white male thugs are prone to commit such violent inhumane acts….Could it be the culture that they come from?😳😳
I will never forget that Friday afternoon in 1999. I was a young girl when the news of Columbine broke and my heart is still heavy with sorrow for all of the lives lost and all their loved ones that will continuously mourn them. 🥀
Tuesday
I lived in the community when this happened. Just heartbreaking. God Bless all those who were impacted.
it was crazy being down the street when this happened. almost unreal hearing all the police cars flying down the street. even more emotional going to the memorial the next day
Wow. When all those birds flew over Daniels father, Goosebumps. Rest In Peace to all who was lost that day. And my thoughts and prayers are with all the victims families, and the survivors. ❤️💔🙏
i cried 😭💔😔😞😞 😢😢 poor Tom
Timestamp??
Being a freshman in High School when this happened and now being 38 and a father of 2 this just hits so different now
@19:15 How heartless they were when they targeted a victim who didnt know to hide due to his disability... Poor soul.. RIP
Right? Absolute weakness. Cowards through and through.
Yeah.Kyle had Downs Syndrome. Heartless.
Evil, more like.
This has absolutely ripped me apart. I am so very very sorry. R.I.P. to all you beautiful angels my deepest sympathy to all the families as I believe they are always by your side and you look up at the night sky the star that shines the brightest is them. God bless to you all. Love to all of you and those that survived.
My heart goes out to those who were affected by this tragedy 😢
Craig calling himself a coward is heartbreaking…Eric and Dillion are the cowards!
When he said there was no last school bus my heart broke into a million pieces 😢
I like how that old guy calls a homicidal mass murderer "a nice gentle young man".
Well he was saying that’s how he knew him but yeah
i couldn’t help but break down and cry when the father said “it’s like they did it for daniel” 😢 44:32
Absolutely heart wrenching.
😢😔
I had recently turned 10 when this tragedy happened, and I remember seeing it on the news that day, and for days and weeks afterward. I never forgot it. I'm so sorry for all those people lost and traumatized by this horrible tragedy.
My heart will forever be with every single family that had their son or daughters die that day. I recently went to the memorial, such a beautiful place. I was instantly hit w a wave of sadness you can literally physically feel the pain. Rip every single person who died that day. It’s so sad. It will never be nothing but tragic.
Powerful documentary 🙏
I (along with pretty much every other person in high school when this happened) cannot and will never forget this. There’s just no adequate way to describe just how many lives were directly or indirectly affected by it.
Read my comment. You needn’t have been in high school. The boy’s family moved, so I’ve no knowledge of how his life is now. He’d be age 28.
You’d think we as a society would have learned and made sure it never happened again 🤷
@@varsityathlete3354 like they say in wakanda, “we don’t do that here”. In all seriousness, I’m honestly curious as to how the gun issue is going to change as the younger generation living through all these school shootings become the majority in a couple of decades. Seeing as most of the resistance is coming from gun advocates who are 40+.
@@mariekatherine5238what boy u talking about? If its erick he's dead his parents moved away from the area n1 knows where they are
@@varsityathlete3354 Nothing like columbine had ever happened before. So whilst the death toll of victims tragically taken seems extremely low for a tragedy to be so infamous, the attack changed America. Never before had teenagers just outright attacked their school like terrorists, heavily armed with bombs and weapons. Had Harris and Klebold 'wanted' to kill 50 poor kids and teachers they could have because they were left unchallenged by confused law enforcement. I will always believe the insanely disgusting rise in frequency of such tragedies, and their respective death tolls is largely the result of how the world reacted to Columbine. The two killers not being challenged by police allowed them to roam around the school for an hour, throwing bombs destroying memorabilia and living out their fantasy of highschool revenge. Millions of depressed, angry, bullied or isolated teens got hardwired to that fantasy. 'I'll happily die if it means I can roam around my bitterly hated highschool for an hour, killing who I please and destroying it.' Becoming famous in the process. However, police were forced to adapt their tactics after Columbine and intervene immediately. So the would be shooters started to use ever more deadly weaponry aiming for mass casualties in the 5-8 minutes they would have to do it. So school, and mass, shootings in America just got ever briefer and ever deadlier.
One of the survivors spoke at my school. He spoke of the loss and pain he felt.
How much he missed his friends and how terrifying it was. It always stuck with me
Did he pump his kicks?
@@firstlast8258…
When he said he slammed the door shut on his sister then he would never see her again I immediately started thinking of my little sisters and started crying 😭😭😭
I could never imagine this as a parent. I lost my brother when I was 16, he was 19, and all I remember is what it did to my parents!!!!
this is so sad, heart goes out to all involved
It's disheartening that we've become desensitized to mass shootings like this, for lack of a better word because no sane person ever truly can be, but this was truly one of those "where were you when?" moments...I remember exactly where I was, who I was with, and what I was doing when I first heard the news of this. I'll never fully shake it, especially since it was in most people's minds the match that lit the fuse of everything that's happened since.
I was a freshman in high school at the time, our teachers put it on the news for all of us to watch and we were allowed to go home if we wanted, I stayed and couldn't believe what I was seeing. Ive seen many fights break out in my school but you would never imagine some kid doing these things
My hearts & prayers to all those affected in the terror & those whom like me, who felt very shaken & upset, warching this video.
Peace be to all my fellow humans.
Crazy to think that this would set off a chain of unfortunate events till this day.. I remember in 3 grade when this broke out on the news my teacher couldn't stop crying. She had family members there....tradegy this still continues in 2022
Absolutely heartbreaking to hear these stories
One lesson to be learned here, respect everyone around you and never let your guard down.
That ending with the father and the ducks.. you do not have a working empathy if that didn’t bring you to tears.
absolutely agree
To tears?? I don’t have empathy because I didn’t cry? Bro it’s sad but come on man I don’t cry a lot bro I haven’t cried about anything at all in almost 3 years it takes a lot to make me cry. Doesn’t mean I don’t have empathy
@@teal2913 Haha I’m obviously just making a point.
Don’t be such a bro.
anti depressants, I can't cry
Yeah I don’t cry at a ton of things very often. That made me cry
The worst advice the teacher could’ve given students was telling them to hide under desks
It’s a life of death and the shooter was in the hallway
To be fair this was back in the 1990’s. Teachers weren’t prepared or trained to deal with this yet. Not everybody can be a super hero in situations they aren’t prepared for and that’s why teachers need/have training today.
You are correct, there was a back door directly attached to the library and the kids should have run.
Now we know:( if you hear shots, run. If you can’t run, hide. If you can’t hide effectively, fight. It’s your last chance.
Computer models show that the Columbine sh*oting would have had ~5 victims or less if they followed that model (Dylan and Eric would have been swarmed in the cafeteria).
But Columbine is a big reason we know that now 😢 it’s also why we know the police have to engage with the shooter immediately.
It’s easier said than done too😔 even if they did know (which they didn’t). My heart goes out to Pattie Nielsen ❤ she did her best in a horrific situation.
@@Illinois_mapper4It’s a life of death? What does that mean ?
Watching and hearing of this for the first time and can’t control my tears 😭, my heart broke into pieces.. We live in a cruel world 💔💔💔
It’s crazy to think how after Columbine, school shootings got so much more prevalent. I hope the survivors and their families have found some sort of peace. 🥺
No parent should ever go through this rest in peace😭
Karma for the atomic bomb 💣 😊
My heart goes out ro all the students who were killed and their families who will never be the same. My heart goes out to all the survivors of that school and their families who will be scarred for life and had witnessed such a horrible act of violence that a majority of us will never witness ourselves. But in the decades since this tragedy this type of event has become all too common whether in a school a parade a restaurant or any public place. Mass shootings have become all too frequent.
Lastly, I want to draw attention to one person who shed light as best she could on the Columbine tragedy
About 15 years ago I came across an article that I think everyone should take the time to read as it put the hook in me and to this day I still think of this words written and the one picture that accpanies the article.
The picture is thst of a young boy who is smiling for the camera and a birthday cake laid out on the table in front of him. Seated next to the little boy is a middle aged woman who has her arm bent at an angle and her hand supporting her chin as she looks like she had a long day at work but wanted to make her sons birthday as special as it could be at that moment.
The article written many years later after Columbine is that of the mother of Dylan Klebold and her recollection of the events leading up to that horrific day and her struggle to deal with the tragedy and in search of any signs she somehow missed and or was unable to see with regards to her son who along with Eric Harris committed such a horrible series of crimes.
Her position on this and her memory are candid and with absolute empathy and sorrow that her son the young happy boy about to enjoy his birthday many years before in the picture accompanying the article would as he would later inflict such horror on the community and a nation and the world.
For parents who have young children who soon will be heading into their teenage years and later adulthood I highly recommend you read her story. It's well written and a complete eye opener. I think her courage to engage this reveal and tell the world should be noted..
Agree. I hate that some people are hateful to her just because she "failed as a mother" due to her sons actions. I understand his actions were terrible but shes a victim/survivor of this too.
15 dead and 25 injured. I can’t imagine what evil possessed the two boys to enter into such a deadly rampage. Good luck entering heaven boys.
They both accepted Jesus before they died and were saved. That's how Christianity works right?
@@johncase1353😮
Obviously not. In order to enter heaven you must BELIEVE wholeheartedly that Christ is the Saviour. Even if these boys “said a profession” it was untrue and selfish for themselves as to try to justify those travesties
It’s just anger and grief with stories like these, my heart is with the families
I remember watching the news on this story. I remember crying and scared because my step mom worked at a McDonald's. I didn't go into a McDonald's for at least 5 years after. So many lives could have been saved that day. May they all rest in peace.
I feel horrible for that young man that was telling the story.. I don't want to imagine what he's went through. It doesn't make sense why humans and especially kids could do this!? And what we're still hearing in the news lately just really concerns me. The future of this younger generation. Things don't seem to be getting better.. we're not put on this planet to kill each other! We're all meant to live life to it's fullest. We have to do better raising our children!! It's the most important part of life is how your raised!
I really wish, that was the case, but unfortunately we live in a society that doesn’t value innocent lives x
He'd be thinking what else he could have done that day that could have change the circumstances of at least the people that were hiding next to him. And he could have done things differently that might have change things both for better or worse, but he needed to understand that he was not a coward for laying down and not draw attention. Im sure his friends that wasn't as lucky as he was that day weren't angry or weren't blaming him. And the fact that he was rescued and had been taken out of the scene passing his sister laying there was just so sad. I hope he lets this go all of it and understand that he is not a coward. I hope he doesn't blame himself for those incidents that he had no control over.
The US government would disagree.
i also feel for the young man, i do hope he dont carry guilt about anything around with him,
@@ihiaolookihiatoo1640 so true
The saddest part we still talked about them instead of all the victims. I hope the victims can forgive them in heaven.
You don't get into heaven with unforgiveness in your heart...period. So if they are in heaven, they have forgiven the shooters.
My heart goes out to those who suffered through this tragedy and I pray for their families . 🙏🏽
Tots and pears 🍐
I remember being in highschool and watching the news coverage of this the morning after (can't believe they scrapped lessons and wheeled in a TV for that, by the way). I remember feeling totally safe, like somehow it could only happen some place else, never here, even though my highschool was no different than Columbine.
Really sad. I was 18 when this happened, I can't believe it's been 23 years since this happened.
It's a long time ago, but it definitely still remains a sad, scary story.
Sending love and peace to the victims and their families. So heartbreaking.
I was a senior in high school, also about to graduate, and obviously remember this happening and learning of the horror all of these people we’re going through that day. At that time 4/20 was a day of Nirvana an inside joke our generation shared. Two messed up give to protect their innocence.
Yea my cousin was his neighbor. Funny you say nirvana 420. We all had alice in chains and nirvana playing wen this came on the news. The teachers tried to blame it on metal and grunge bands. They really looked at us like freaks after that because we were all big metal heads and punks into heavy music. Ironic they were not even into metal that much nor did they dress like Goths or grungers .
@@MRSludgedude Music is not to be blamed, but lazy parenting is! Both of the boys,that bullied them, but also on the parents of these killers!
@@Ujuani68 my cousin knew him pretty good. He said he wasn't really bullied that much and was a normal kid. Maybe that Eric brainwashed him because I guess he wasn't like that before denver move. They moved around alot. Wen I was a kid ppl all thought I was that kid because I had a trench coat long hair and was kind of crazy. We got harassed for 2 years by cops after that happend . Man those older folks then hated heavy metal and grunge . Seems like yesterday. Those two kids really were not into metal or the towns misfits like the media made them. They were pretty much normal except that Eric clearly had anti-social personality disorder or some cluster B.
I was also a senior in HS and will never forget . We ditched school that day and saw all this in the news
I was 12 and in 6th grade when it happened. I remember when Craig was describing how his African American friend was killed right in front of his friends father OMG 😱 I couldn’t even imagine what that was like
Will never forget this, and how insane it sounded, and felt. Sadly, it almost feels like it's where it all began. At the time, I had graduated the year before and watching this unfold felt like something I'd never felt, before. Now, we are conditioned to it, in this country. It is so sad. This is a very well thought out documentary, and respectful. Love and light to all those involved. Seems like yesterday.
You mentioned that you had graduated the year prior. Was it from Columbine high school that you graduated from, and if it was, did you know any of the victims or gunmen?
Grievous injuries and gruesome death can happen to anybody at any time (very grim). Audience wishes survivors all the best. Cheers!
High quality content !
Tom mauser and the other parents waiting for kids who were never coming home its heart breaking.
I was only 11 when this went down, but I remember back then the drills etc that were put in place over this. YEARS later, after I was graduated. There was actually a shooting at my old high school. Man did that rock the town at the time.
Dear Craig Scott, you carry a burden and guilt that isn't yours to carry. It wasn't your fault your sister was where she was and first to be killed. It wasn't your fault some friends were targeted in the library while you ran for your life. You did what anyone on this earth would have under the circumstances. Place the blame where it belongs: two young men who committed unspeakable acts on others. I pray God will lift the burden and guilt from your heart.
I cried for 3 days when this happened :( I sent a donation to Columbine and they sent me a thank you card which I keep in my Bible
I remember this day well.. it set the stage for the horror of school shootings 😔
Sometimes watching videos or documentaries of what these guys have done I feel like I'm giving them the satisfaction.
Thanks!
I think it’s crazy to say that bullying was a major factor. Many of us get bullied but we don’t resort to horrific acts.
I think some use it as an excuse to themselves to validate the reason they’re doing their actions
Crazy is as crazy does
@annabiotic1078
Agree 100%.
Gut wrenching….Unfortunately this has become far too common in our society. Prayers for all
Far too common in America

Only in america actually...this isn't an issue in other countries.
Eric was a classic case of neglect from his pilot father who was probably never around. He probably never had any sort of discipline and was spoiled out of guilt of his own parents.
He was a POS!! Nothing more. His mother should of had an abortion.
I usually don't agree on blaming the parents but in this case, I agree. Why did this pilot leave all his guns out for the son to use. He really neglected his stupid son.
@@vee6769 They got their guns illegally via a straw purchase.
It’s absolutely messed up that someone would ever think of attacking a school like they are only students who did nothing wrong-
We had a shooting at my high school in LaFollette Tennessee. An assistant principal was killed. You never think it can happen where you live.
@@toy4tao Wow kid real edgy.
@@toy4tao Tuff Guy Over Here‼️
@@toy4tao does your mother know that you are posting comments online? Finish your homework and don’t forget to take out the trash, kid
@@toy4tao you’re living proof that psychopaths are truly everywhere.
@@toy4tao yeh psycho
I'm sorry Sean..I'm sorry for all those who became adults that day..and a prayer for all that didn't go home
What’s praying gonna do?
Now that I am 24 years old, hearing about all this is devastating. The stress and anger felt throughout this video brings me to tears. I just wonder if the shooters got the help they needed that none of this would happen.
Nah, shooters deserve no sympathy
They shooters died they deserve nothing no help nothing
@@nagarat7308before the shooting if they had mental health issues help might have made this shooting not happen
@@I0K-coex true, it was later found that they had been bullied at school which caused mental health issues
I think the shooters are beyond repair and they're like in worst teenage phase you can imagine
Some will pretend they're fixed
Daniel Mauser’s father seems to have never been able to find peace after losing his son.
I can only wish peace, to some degree, for these parents. I can’t even try to imagine their pain. All the parents over the years, that have lost children to these travesty’s, such a deep, unfathomable loss is beyond me.
God willing, someday this will be written about as a time in our history plagued by an unreasonable war within our own schools. And will be spoken of in only the past tense.
Until then, I discuss with my daughter what she ought to do in such a situation, and her classes are interrupted with active shooter drills.
This shouldn’t be happening.
Yet it is.
I often drive by this school and it just feels so sad and strange rest easy young kids you didn’t deserve any of this💔
It’s eerie driving by
Maybe they did maybe they didn’t who knows
They didn’t change the name of it?
@@teatamarie no
I live across the street & went to columbine it is very eerie
