Saying 9/11 was faked is like saying the tsunami that hit Japan was faked.
(Keyword: "like")
That's an accurate statement, I do agree.
As obvious as it is.
Illuminati
It's not faked, dumbass.
Yup, you'd probably be right in both instances.
ThePivotFan2013 You dummy he said that it was not fake
One of the most remarkable, positive, things I've ever witnessed through a live broadcasts, was the rescuing of the 33 miners trapped in a mine in Chilli in 2010. That would have been a nice positive addition to this list. I remember this so well. I was in bed with the flu, so I got to watch nearly all of it. It was pretty amazing!
It's Chile, bro.
chilli LOL
"Chilli"? Where were T-Boz and Left Eye?
It’s spelt Chile you fool.
The 2011 tsunami was sadder than words can express. I used to live in Japan and donated money that I really couldn’t afford but knew was needed for the cleanup efforts and help people affected. Japanese folks are the nicest people I’ve ever known and were always helpful to me when I lived there.
Definitely. Some might consider the December 26, 2004 tsunami that devastated the Indian Ocean to be far worse because of the higher death toll and the fact that the majority of the deceased were tourists as it was the day after Christmas and so the tourists who died were spending the Christmas holidays in the warmer weather of countries such as Indonesia and Thailand.
@@michaellovely6601 I was living in Singapore at the time and so being closer to the location of the tsunami brought much more news coverage. The destruction in Sumatra was horrific. Estimated 230,000 lives lost.
@@michaellovely6601 I am from India. And that day I was in Chennai from my hotel balcony I could see the waves coming. That was one of th biggest disaster in terms of death toll. No one was aware of Tsunami's that time.
Did they have issues with tattoos?
That is just sad 😔
Watching that plane hit the second tower, even at 12 years old, still sticks in my brain and won't ever leave. Watching my mom crying on the couch and not being able to completely comprehend what was happening was terrifying.
I was 5 when it happened and same my mom was crying and I was wondering why she was crying at a building with bits falling off it
Turns out it was falling people
My mom told me when I asked her what she was doing during 9/11 and all she told me is that she said "oh shit" a the tv. then went to school.
I was 4 when 9/11 happened.
Woke up at friends house (14 at the time), watched a bit of what happened then went to school and the driver just was trying to cheer 25 teenagers up.
I’ve become desensitized to it because I’ve watched so many documentaries about 9/11 but it really is disturbing and truly horrific when you remember that you’re watching hundreds of people die in an instant, not to mention hundreds more when the towers collapse. As someone who only remembers kids talking about it at school the next day, it’s hard for me to really comprehend, as it is for many young people; what it must have been like to see it happen live, especially as an American. Twenty two years later, it is still the biggest single event to happen in this century and the only thing to create more of an impact then it is the COVID pandemic.
7/11 was a part time job
haaaaahaha
+Arina Yoshi Good one.
+Arina Yoshi not original.
kush did 4/20
+Arina Yoshi 9/11 Was an inside job. No questions about it.
God these comments are so fucking stupid.. This list isn't for the most people to die in an event, its for "Top 10 Craziest LIVE TV events", like earthquakes/hostage situations/terror attacks. 9/11 definitely should be at #1 - and thats why it is at #1.
Your so right like why are they mad
shaienne devonish Because there's been more shocking things on TV than a few planes crashing into a few towers.

***** Can I get my Virus in Plaid?
Alpha Bulblax Why plaid, I hear the current trend for virus collectors is blue, but some prefer red. I prefer none. But that's just me.
That made no sense to what we are talking about. sorry.
Austin Parker lol
Nine eleven as the first one? Seriously?
Whats with the footage og hiroshima and nagasaki?
Even if it wasnt shown in any media because there wasnt anything like this, 3000 are nothing compared to 300000 plus the ones died because of their injuries.
Oh god you poor poor americans
***** because one dead american guy isnt worth thousands and more souls, all are equal and the world isnt only about you or me
Alex Molodovski agree i am american and agree with you in Japan thousand die no one really cares in America but 100 Americans die the world must react to it
Wow dude really. I mentioned that it wasnt broadcasted but fuck this. It doesnt change anything
Lol godfather doesnt have sth w comedy but both things have. Its the top ten list youre talking about but fine i meant it overall that it was way more dramatic
And the fact it was filmed. If you see they couldnt broadcast it in their time so yeah..
These are events that a lot of people were watching live--that's the point. It's not the worst events in history just modern day live TV events in real time. The events in the video aren't even all USA events. If they just wanted to show serious events we could watch a movie about WWII where millions died. Don't be a dufus. People weren't watching Hiroshima on TV. 5,000 people died in the 1900 Galveston, Texas hurricane, but there was no TV then. I don't think the race car one should have been in this list. Surely there were bigger TV events than that one.
The Air Florida flight 90 crash played out in front of me on TV, yet less than ten miles from where I stood. It is something I will never forget as it happened in my home town. The aircraft struck the 14th street bridge here in DC on Jan 13, 1982. The helicopter hovering and dragging to shore as it saved as many people as it could, the bystanders jumping into the water to rescue others. It bring tears to my eyes to remember that terrible day.
I will always remember the day the Challenger exploded. I was in 6th grade and the whole school was watching. You could hear all of the students doing the countdown and cheering. Then, silence. You could actually hear a pin drop! We all sat there wondering if what we saw was real.
After the initial shock, the crying began. They sent everyone home early.
Seeing the plane go into the Trade Center is horrible. Gives me the chills.
it was a goverment conspiracy if you dont believe me go watch "zeitgest 911"
Chevy man, I'm not against you for thinking that or anything but why would our government destroy the World Trade Center and the pentagon and try to kill the president then start a war?
Cooper Foushee Why does that question even need answering? Are you ignorant to the world you live in or just an idiot? The list of reasons is never ending. An excuse for war, money, a way for Bush to gain the support of the people as he knew he was hated by most... What are the lives of a few thousand people to a government when trillions of dollars worth of oil are just lying in the middle east waiting to be had? The government don't care about the people, and you're a moron if you believe they do. They care about numbers, taxes, money, and power. Not people. By planning the 9/11 attack and blaming it on "terrorists", it gave the US an excuse to wage war on the middle east and pillage their oil fields raking in trillions of dollars. By brain washing the American public and pinning it on the middle east, it meant the people supported Bush's war plans rather than rebelling against him and stopping him from doing it. It also increased the amount of volunteers into the military, increasing America's military power. If you boil it all down, then war is about one thing - money. And the amount of money the US government gained from killing a few thousand of it's own people is unfathomable. Not to mention the false trust Bush earned from the people, and the growth in military... Also, if you were wise to the world, then you would understand how hijacking several passenger planes and flying them so far off course WITHOUT alerting anyone is completely impossible. The whole event is a massive lie, and it's disgusting just how many people believe it. People call me crazy for thinking it's a lie, but it makes a hell of a lot more sense than a bunch of unqualified sand crawlers (no racism intended) hijacking passenger planes and flying them over one of the busiest cities in the world and into two of the most important buildings into the world. The fact that people believe THAT is what's fucking crazy.
The Awoken Cooper Foushee Chevy Man Brian Coleman you fucking idiots this is literally 100% irrelevant because regardless of whether or not it was a conspiracy it would still send cills down his spine.
I was stoned when I turned on the TV on 9 11. That day changed my life because I joined the military afterwards
wut
Sorry to break it to your friend... 9/11 was an inside job... those were controlled demolitions. If u want to know the truth look up some conspiracy theories and keep an open mind. I don't know who wanted this to happen but it was a shoddy job at best to destroy all the evidence. Once you figure that whole mess out, a couple questions arise. Who is the enemy then? Wasn't it Osama? Does Osama exist? Or is he just a character? A face to pour your hatred into. Planes didn't bring down the world trade centers. You can't even back that idea with science.
***** I need you to shut up
you joint the army because you are stupid and you don't have brain to use.
***** Your post is pretty contradictory. "If u want to know the truth look up some conspiracy THEORIES and keep an open mind." Makes zero sense man.
I saw 9/11 coming from when I clicked on the video
me too
I didn't. Hit me like a brick...
Greetings World, We are Anonymous. For the last two months, we have been consistently reporting on a possible global conflict, World War 3 between the United States and its allies in the West, and Russia and its allies in the East. The dispute on the South China Sea has severely damaged the United States relations with the Peoples Republic of China. After the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague ruled that China's nine-dash-line claim in the South China Sea, and its land reclamation activities on islets are invalid and unlawful, the United States has been preparing to sail in the area under a so-called Freedom of Navigation principle. This has angered the Chinese. In August, the Chinese Defense Minister, Chang Wanquan told his country's citizens to prepare for, what he described as the peoples war at sea. Mr Wanquan was referring directly to the United States planned provocation under the pretext of Freedom of Navigation. China has since vowed to take all necessary measures available to protect its sovereignty over the South China Sea, revealing that it had the right to set up an air defense zone on the sea. China has also since been positioning and testing its nuclear weapons, and planning military drills on its waters with Russia. Even the United States has confirmed that China has tested an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, which is capable of striking everywhere in the world within half an hour. Moving away from the South China Sea, we arrive in Syria. It is an open secret that the civil war in Syria is a proxy war between the United States and Russia. Russia has even intervened physically on the request of the Syrian government. The United States, unable to get any invitation, has been openly and secretly arming many rebel groups in the country, with open plans to overthrow the Syrian government. Of course, since Russia honored the invitation of the Syrian government last year, the war has been turning in favor of the Syrian government, which was falling before Russia's intervention. As we speak now, tension is mounting between the United States and Russia. Nerves are at their highest since the Cold War era. The United States, at the moment, is sitting on tenterhooks. Many officials in the president Obama administration are frustrated and confused regarding the situation in Syria. The United States has announced that it has ended all contacts with Russia in Syria. This announcement by the United States comes as Russia, beginning on September. 22nd, intensified its military operations in Syria, with the intentions to capture the city of Aleppo for the Syrian government. Diplomatic efforts to put an end to the fighting in Syria, have collapsed. As the Aleppo operation continues, Russia has given the United States a stern warning not to take any action against the Syrian government forces. In fact, there are many Russian jet fighters stationed in Syria, ready to shoot down any United States jet fighter that attempts to strike on the Syrian government forces. These developments from Moscow are not going down easily with the United States. The United States Secretary of State, John Kerry, is said to have urged president Obama to intervene and face the consequences from Russia. He is said to have even favored a nuclear deterrent against Russia. However, it appears that before Kerry could even make this suggestion to president Obama, the Russians had already gathered intelligence on the happenings within the White House. According to Zvezda, a Russian defense ministry Television channel, the country has started preparing its citizens for a possible nuclear war with the United States - because of the mounting tensions in Syria. Russia has since moved to deploy nuclear-capable Iskander missiles in its western-most region, Kaliningrad, which borders on NATO members of Poland and Lithuania. Due to how the situation has become, some top officials at the United States defense headquarters have finally spoken. These Pentagon officials have admitted that World War 3 is imminent, and that its going to be deadly and fast. The military generals were speaking on a future-of-the-army panel in Washington. “A conventional conflict in the near future will be extremely lethal and fast, and we will not own the stopwatch,” Major General William Hix said. General Hix also stated that China and Russia's armies are becoming increasingly technological, and that the Pentagon was getting ready for violence on the scale that the United States Army has not seen since Korea. His comments were also echoed by lieutenant Gen Joseph Anderson and Chief of Staff, Gen Mark A. Milley, who described war between nation states as almost guaranteed. The generals also said apart from the conventional battle, cyber battle, too, has become a reality against the United States, revealing that even smaller nations are launching it against the country. We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.
Chris Freitag stfu copy and paste.
For all the people saying the video is shit because 9/11 was number #1: this is a video about the CRAZIEST envents caught live, it has nothing to do with patriotism. I understand a tsunami can be very shoking, but it's not crazy, it's a natural disaster that has happened a lot of times already. I think watching a live broadcast about 2 planes with passengers crashing into the most important buildings of the world, watching people falling to their death and watching a mountain of smoke rising in the city of New York from the collapse of two enormous buildings... it's the craziest. PD: I'M NOT AMERICAN, I'M FROM URUGUAY (SOUTH AMERICA)
I wouldn't call them the two most important buildings, certainly not the biggest, and terrorism has been experienced multiple times in the past by other countries.
Awsomocosmic not to that scale and they were certainly two of the most iconic buildings
go my chanel sub and u got 10 sub more
yeah but 9/11 / terrorist attacks are more common though, a tsunami is certainly "crazier" than a fucking building collapsing
Kondou Kureno I’m pretty sure hijacked airplanes crashing into iconic buildings and then having those buildings collapsing with people in it, many of which jumped off are not “common” lol
I feel that the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami (2011) should have been 1st. 18000 deaths/missing and 6000 injured. It was said that it costed up to $235 billion. Don't get me wrong 911 was pretty dam crazy but the sheer shock across the world when people watched the broadcast of the tsunami is something I will never forget.
Yes and did that tsunami start a war?
Marisa Smith did the plane into the tower start a war?
This is craziest events caught on film, not biggest disasters, shithead. Whats a crazier, rarer event, a tsunami or a huge coordianated terror attack?
Last time I checked Tsunamis happen twice a year in the Philippines yet that did not make this list
Marisa Smith tsunamis not as big as the japan one.
this comment section: "9/11 wuz fake" "911 got top spot that's gay" "boohoo 9/11 get over it America" "INSidE JOB LOL"
iHuffPropane How was it fake? there is no evidence that it was fake. and 99% of conspiracies don't exist
Norse Titan read the beginning of the comment bud
Rashaad Abdullah No over 9000% accurate.
*****
I know it's not a conspiracy
Monster LMA i realize that. i think it's retarded that people think it is
I think the O.J. Simpson Bronco chase could've been on there
@@DevoidBear oh
The fall of the Berlin Wall still puts my hair up. It was one of the most emotional and iconic moments in history ever broadcasted
fr
most of you already know, but today's exactly 13 years ago 9/11 happened. don't get me wrong; I'm not American nor I lost anyone in the 9/11 scandal BUT I'm Dutch and - at least for me - this year (2014) is my personal 9/11 year. we lost a plane in Eastern Ukraine on July 17, 2014 (MH17). there died a colleague of my fathers work (including her husband and 2 children) and the best friend of a good friend of a good friend of me.
stay strong; we are with you America!
Sorry to hear Tom, may they rest in peace.
TrollFaceTheMan Gaming they will not rest in peace if they never praised the lord
Alex huntley Oh. My.God. did you seriously say that, you inconsiderate ass muncher. how can someone as ignorant as you ever actually work a keyboard... really you have the gall to say that about such a devastating incident. you sir are more likely to not make it to the lords presence than probably anyone on MH17. "Let He Who Is Without Sin Cast The First Stone." ... bloody git...
Chris Dumas O ye who believe! Eat not up your property among yourselves in vanities: But let there be amongst you Traffic and trade by mutual good-will: Nor kill (or destroy) yourselves: for verily Allah hath been to you Most Merciful!
"And do not kill yourselves (nor kill one another). Surely, Allah is Most Merciful to you." (Quran, chapter 4, verse 29
The Prophet saws said, "Whoever purposely throws himself from a mountain and kills himself, will be in the (Hell) Fire falling down into it and abiding therein perpetually forever; and whoever drinks poison and kills himself with it, he will be carrying his poison in his hand and drinking it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever; and whoever kills himself with an iron weapon, will be carrying that weapon in his hand and stabbing his abdomen with it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever. (Bukhari)
Alex huntley This is one of the reasons i will probably stay agnostic for good. And trust me it's my decision and i'm very happy with it. If all those good people in the world who never hurt a thing, all those good souls who help others for nothing in return, but never found way to god don't deserve nice afterlife, because as you state it's the rule, then i don't wanna ever be any part of it. Or is there possibility that people have misunderstood some of the meanings and you just blindly following. It's simple really for me. People are just nice or not, no meter where they from or what the heck they believe in.
9/11 should not have been on this list. I'm sorry but it is not that important, America needs to get over it.
3,000 people died. it sucks but you guys need to get over it.
You do realize the more you morn, the more the terrorist win, right?
I'm not mourning, I think it's sick that you don't think it's important.
zach mandigo Really? What do you call every school in America and at sporting events taking moments of silence.
xAssailantx America was planning that war a long while before 9/11 you idiot. Hahaha, that's the American education for you.
I kind of knew the 9-11 one was gonna be #1
Such a tragic memory! R.i.p. to the casualties!
Moments that we will never forget😭😭😭💔.R.I.P to the people that lost their lives💔😢😢😢.
A 6.9 earthquake here in Chile barely gets mention on twitter.
How many died?
+The Wilfred Different times Chilean.
yeah but doesn't chile have better built buildings. I remember there being an earthquake in chile a few years back and all that happened was a few departments tilted.
+Di Ci well it's good to see a nation learn from the past, Japan built a nuclear power station next to the sea.
sabía que alguien Chileno iba a comentar:D los chilenos estamos acostumbrados a los temblores y ellos no por eso hacen tanto atado pero hay que comprenderlos
bush did titanic
i love jewish orphans 1 obama did 1906 earthquake
i love jewish orphans 1 and the American Civil War.
i love jewish orphans 1 Romney did Katrina
That profile picture matches perfectly with that comment.
i love jewish orphans did this comment
The World Series earthquake is a testament to how strong the stadium is. 60 could have been 10,000
these are some truly defining moments in history, BECAUSE they were witnessed by world wide audiences live. Every single one played some part in changing how people are informed, how media covers developing stories, and in revealing the benefits and costs of live news coverage. These are some of the most remembered moments in history when you ask those who watched at the time, because the experience is remembered by more than just those who were there. Everyone was affected by 9/11 because every one saw it happen. And even years after the fact the emotion contained in those terrifying moments is immortalized for future generations.
Hey, WatchMojo, how about making a list of the top 10 most annoying Internet troll comments? There's at least five of them on this video alone.
Really?
I'll never forget the 2001 & 2011 incidents. I was still in high school when 9/11 occurred. I'd missed my school bus, but my parents took me to school. The furthermore they heard about the news, they decided to come back & get me within an hr. or less. We all thought either the apocalypse was occurring or that it was the "tip of the iceberg" of it. I think we were right on the 2nd part...
The Fukishima incident in 2011 (as well as other surrounding areas in Japan) had me in deep tears. I was highly worried about all those ppl over there.
2 Of my Family died in that. : (
Andrew Hallis sorry for your lost
Andrew Hallis My deepest condolences are w/ you. I hope that you're able to keep as strong as possible & be well.
I have something that’s I want to make a quote
“It’s not the planes hitting the buildings or the buildings falling that makes 9/11 scary and sad
It’s the people who were in those planes and in those buildings who died that makes it scary and sad
1) Moon landing? Anyone? Covered live, watched by the whole world... I mean, they put a TV camera on the moon and filmed Armstrong's first steps. On the moon. Earth was united. I mean come on! Has anything like that happened before or since?
2) Can we use a word other than "crazy" here? Somehow the word doesn't seem to be a good description of the fall of the Berlin Wall, 9/11, the Munich massacre, or a lot of other events. Tearing down the Berlin Wall was a perfectly sensible thing to do actually. Not very crazy.
Moon Landing was fake, imo
GMD Sickster [IG-SoG]
Sure, fine, whatever, but it was a unique moment on TV. The whole world was tuned in at once, with a common wish of success, a common fascination with human potential. There were no enemies in the world for those few minutes when Neil and Buzz were shown walking on the moon. The people of the world got back to their hatred again afterwards, but that moment had the world absolutely spellbound. I won't argue about the truth of the moon landing here. There are other places for that. In any case, it is undeniable that it changed the world more than any live televised event, except maybe 9/11.
how ? not really
MTuffinGaming
I missed your comment. Sorry! It changed the world in that the entire world, for the first time ever, put hatred and xenophobia aside and gathered together to witness something that was extraordinary. On that day, the Soviet people and government alike were our friends and had nothing but goodwill in their hearts for the success of the mission. It was like that all over the world. Everyone seemed to stop hating and felt united as humans as we watched the most amazing human achievement ever, live on TV. There was a universal sense of awe. That is how it changed the world. It was a temporary change, but is was scarcely short of miraculous.
(Even if some of you insist on your silly theories that we never went to the moon, you have to understand the social impact at the time was very real.)
this is craziest events not top events - I guess that's why
I wonder if they revised the list for 2021 how many of these would even make the top 10... We have had a crazy 8 years since 2013.
I remember 9/11. At that time I was a kindergartner living in Wisconsin and we were starting our day talking about weather and stuff then suddenly the announcement bell rung and we heard someone on a plane calling for help. I think it was the one that went down in Pennsylvania but I'll never forget that.
dude I was a kindergardener in Wisconsin!
It's antisemitic to over investigate it
After all these years I STILL get a knot in my stomach watching the Challenger disaster...
I still vividly remember my classmate's faces being excited for the launch & Mrs. McAuliffe. Then disaster hit...
"Obviously a major malfunction"
IS THAT SO
Give DAMN a 10
Scientists Tried to stop the launch but NASA refused
?
I still get chills when I see the second plane hit.
Moon Landing? It wasn't live i think, but it was the most important thing ever shown on TV.
In what way?
I was born 10 days before the 9/11 attack...... my mom said on that day she had said to my dad "What world have we brought are son into?"
A world where people people end sentences with prepositions?
It's not going to get better, president Bush is an idiot, 9/11 inside job. Millions killed after 9/11.. what a nice world
***** "sounds like your mom was being a woman" because real men dismiss national tragedies on the day they happen and celebrate the fact that their 10 day old child is going to start life in a country that's at war.
also woman-singular women-plural
Abd ar Rahman you Sir are a MORON
A world ruled by a predatory elite who manipulate economies, fund all major wars, and cripple and control humanity through their mafia central banking system of international finance.
A world where trillionaires fund science, hide significant technologies from the masses for the purpose of using those technologies against people (their enemies).
They manufacture crisis to keep people fearful, then offer solutions which weaken an individuals voice, reduce fundamental rights and move societies towards collectivism.
This is incredible list of videos!
💥💥Ah the good ol days of watchmojo.
RIP to all those who died in 9/11
RIP to everyone killed in this video.
A lady who attends my church and is a good friend and neighbor was married to a NASA Engineer who was one of the ones who tried convincing NASA not to launch the Challenger, but his pleas were ignored. Unfortunately, he is no longer here, but she loves telling the story to keep his memory alive
Best craziest moments ever seen!! Thank you for sharing!
i remember 9/11. i was in third grade at the time. we were in the classroom doing some kind of art project or something when a message was sent out through the speakers for the teachers to turn on the TV and go to the news channel. i saw the planes hit the towers live and will never forget it. the scary thing is my grandfather was supposed to be in the wing that the pentagon was hit and my grandmother was supposed to be in the trade center. my grandfather's meeting was rescheduled because a navy captain had taken the room. the captain, along with everyone else in that room, was killed. my grandmother's office in the trade center was under renovations when it was hit and therefor was at home. i dont know how or why but my family that day didnt have a guardian angel. we had a whole platoon of angels and the base they lived in.
As a lifelong resident of New Orleans , the footage of Hurricane Katrina will be forever ingrained in my mind. To see the city where you've lived all your life suddenly underwater was devastating.
Hurricane Katrina surely should have been on this list. The 911 debacle was man made (government made), Hurricane Katrina was real. Real neglect on the behalf of those who were supposed to insure the safety of the people who live there in New Orleans.
Abdul Khafid Sulaymaan
It is unfortunate to say this due to the loss of life, but you can see live footage of far more diastrous hurricanes than Katrina. The footage from Typhoon Haiyan is much more dramatic, in my opinion.
911 was by far the worst and quickest disaster to be aired, George Bush was at a preschool when he saw the first airplane hit the tower, on a television set that morning.
he did it
I was saddened by all of these, but those towers still brought tears to my eyes... I’ll never forget waking up to this just starting to broadcasted then watching that plan and the horrifying fall, along with everything/everyone in tweet and after.
Something that should’ve been an honorable mention was the death of a Pennsylvanian politician named R. Budd Dwyer. I don’t remember the whole story, but he was convicted of bribery and was sentenced to 50 or so years in prison. One day in 1987, he gave a press conference and many thought he was going to resign. But after he made a speech and handed off some papers to his colleagues (they were discovered to be three letters, one of them was addressed to his wife), he took a gun out of an envelope and unalived himself not only in a room full of people, but on national television. The graphic unedited footage is one of the most bone chilling things ever and very horrific to watch. Just seeing the life go out of someone in a blink of an eye is very upsetting.
I believe many years later, he was later found innocent as someone allegedly lied under oath about Dwyer. But still, it was a very tragic end to what seemed like a good and honest yet troubled man.
R.I.P Ayrton Senna
I really can't take this seriously with the 9/11 stuff being number one...
9/11 was very bad and shocking
Whitney Pyant It's not like the berlin wall and the japanese tsunami were more important or anything. They broke two towers and a few thousands died, boo hoo.
Berlin Wall and 9/11 were more important. I'm not saying Japanese tsunami wasn't important. Berlin Wall and 9/11 are a very important moment our in history.
Whitney Pyant Yes. You said it. In *your* history.
9/11 didn't affect any other country. Except Canada, maybe?
Actually affected more countries then just US and Canadian. 9/11 started war which affected a lot of countries
While many tragic events have haunted and scarred the lives and memories of many throughout human history, I believe they exist as an example and as a reminder of how we can rise up after such catastrophic events and learn from mans' mistakes to create a better future for the next generation.
Terrorists try to fly into the one world trade center
about 50 missiles fly out to meet them
The Space Shuttle disaster… that was something my mom saw as a kid on tv at her school. When it happened, her and the rest of the students were told they could leave for the day. She had no idea what happened till after it was announced.
I remember watching the tsunami in Japan live in Geography class in school. Our teacher had a lot of Japanese friends and his son lived there...he was nearly in tears watching the water demolishing the city he'd been visiting only months before. There was also the rescue of the Chillean miners
Why 911 need to be in first place? I know that was very terrible , i'm not saying the opposite , but you need to admit there was more and worst accidents caught on tv that really need to be in first place. :/
Like what
Marisa Smith The Haiyan typhoon in Filipinas kill more than 4000 people , in te 911 there was between 2.445 and 3000 the number of deaths,
If you want , you can search for it , to see i´m not liying or something.
Marisa Smith like the zunami in south-east asia who killed 200.000 people
I don't think that the video was based off of number of deaths, but rather the most shocking. It was extremely shocking to witness another plane hit the tower while filming of the first impact was taking place.
Antonio Von Squire Your view point is right. But I think they put this video in first place , because the people get mad if this event of 911 dont appear in a top 10. I see the "second" part of the video and the people that didn´t watch the "first" part says -Why this video do not have the twin towers- etc...
I’ve become desensitized to it because I’ve watched so many documentaries about 9/11 but it really is disturbing and truly horrific when you remember that you’re watching hundreds of people die in an instant, not to mention hundreds more when the towers collapse. As someone who only remembers kids talking about it at school the next day, it’s hard for me to really comprehend, as it is for many young people; what it must have been like to see it happen live, especially as an American. Twenty two years later, it is still the biggest single event to happen in this century and the only thing to create more of an impact then it is the COVID pandemic.
I watched a video of a news reporter and camera crew escaping during the buildings collapsing and running into a parking garage to escape the fumes. It put the event into "first person" perspective for me fr
Wow 2001 is the craziest year ever huh?
2020: *hold my coronavirus*
Don’t you mean 2019 sir or ma’am that’s the reason it’s called Covid 19
In 911 my dads brother was on the Second plane I wish he could be still alive
how awful for your family to witness the second plane to hit on TV and later finding out you just saw your own uncle die right in front of you... i am truly sorry
Was he flying the plane?
I was too young to know what 9/11 meant at the time, but I remember watching it on Cartoon Network seeing as though every station had live coverage of it.
The one I won't forget was the Japane quake. I couldn't believe my eyes when I was watching the flood washing away buildings and cars
I think you have grown up to be one special person (Y). Keep thinking, keep questioning.
babuun FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG
my dad was on that plane :(
he always sead:Habib i will bomb the America.
#soproudofyou
***** my dad died so fuk u man
Though the earthquake also showed the world how advanced Japan's earthquake early warning system is. Japan's earthquake early warning system detects tremors, calculates the epicenter, and sends out warnings from over a thousand seismographs scattered throughout the country. The Japan Meteorological Agency is responsible for issuing the warnings; and does so by sending alerts to television channels, radio stations, Internet sites, and mobile phone networks. When the earthquake struck eighty miles offshore; warnings were generated in three seconds. The tsunami warnings came three minutes later. Tsunami warnings take longer to issue because more complex calculations are involved; and ocean data has to be factored into the equation. Though because the first tsunami waves struck the Japanese coastline within twenty minutes of the earthquake; the advanced warning provided some residents with crucial minutes to evacuate all coastal areas and riversides in the warned area and get to high ground. The system also halted the Shinkansen bullet trains, suspended operations of the Tokyo subway system, and halted surgeries in progress at various hospitals as well as giving factories ample time to stop the assembly lines and shut down production equipment so the employees could evacuate the facilities. Power was cut off to four million buildings and phone service was knocked out. Flights that tried to land at both Haneda International Airport and Narita International Airport- both of which are in Tokyo- had to be diverted to American military bases elsewhere in Japan. High rise office buildings in Tokyo swayed back and forth for half an hour because of the aftershocks.
AWESOME VIDEO !
Isn't this why they have a little delay projecting it on television just in case something horrendous and sensitive happens?
I don't want to start any arguments with this.
The falling of the berlin wall was, in my opinion, more important than 9/11.
One of them symbolizes the ending of a long war, and the other symbolizes the beginning of a new one.
So i want to ask if you can let it go 13 years after the incident
also it's not quite true, that the authorities opened the gates on purpose, it was much more complicated. And the East German Government didn't call itself communist but socialist.
Those 2 events cant be compared. 9/11 wasnt an "important event", it was a terrible event because it accomplished 2 things. Death and War. The fall of the Berlin Wall was important was because it was a symbol of unity and forgetting a dark time in history, basically the exact opposite of what 9/11 accomplished
SpyCrab97 That is why The falling of the Berlin wall was much more important than 9/11.
Man With No Name The Taliban took credit for it. it wasn't an inside job.
They stated it in communication with the government, it was all over the news.
Actually thinking about it now. I wouldn't put it behind Bush.
I was 11 years old in Saint Aedans Catholic school as I watched the towers go down from the windows during religion class. I remember asking the nun who was teaching us why "god" didn't stop what was happening. She said it was "god's will". That's the day I became an atheist.
FuZiionXD Hell doesn't exist. You don't exist.
Shiki Nozomu Well its your choise, but i just know its all real.
*choice.
I love how you worship a "god" that let all those innocent people die.
That's absolutely disgusting
Almost as bad as seeing the second plane hit the towers was seeing them collapse.
Thank you for showing me about the craziest event in the Philippines.
Watching tsunami water move across the land, even from a distance, is horrifying to me.
I remember 9-11-01 like yesterday. It is still vivid in my mind. I remember everything about that day and what I did. Never forget.
Same.
7 years but still in my recommended
Lee Harvey Oswald looks like Shia LaBeouf
Tom Erwin what if... LEE IS SHIA’S GRANDPA
What? Lee was shot dead by Jack Ruby in 1963.
I live in England, but I can remember 9/11 quite well. My 2nd birthday was the day before it happened. They say you can't remember things that happened before you were 4, but I definitely remember walking into the living room either on September 12th or September 13th and seeing two towers on fire on the TV.
you're quite smart i wish all people your age act like you
I was only four or five at the time, and I remember my brother telling my parents that the same thing was on every channel
I was two when it happened as well, i didn't understand what was happening but my parents explained to me what happened when i was old enough to know how evil some people can be..
i know right people can be that cruel they can waste their life just for the sake of harming others
I actually remember learning Maths around that time when I was in Primary School. I think I might have been seven. No one knew, obviously, since there was no TV and all the staff were busy. It was only until when I older when I actually paid attention to what had happened on that day, since until then I was just an innocent kid. As soon as I found out about it, all the memories came flooding back and I could remember exactly where I was and what I was doing on that day when I was seven, considering that I find it hard to remember anything else beyond that. Likewise, I can remember where I was on 7/7.
I really shouldnt start watching this when I need to study for tomorrow.
It's not like you gonna fail right away..or is it?
The silence that hit absolutely every part of the county when that firebomb of a plane glanced the building.....Everyone was mid-sentence and everyone just stopped.
The Space Challenger Disaster: the DARKEST Moment in NASA History.
The Tohoku Earthquake in Japan was quite unforgettable for me my friends in service. I was deployed in the USS Essex and we just made port in Malaysia, within 12 hours of just being in port, all ships within the 7th fleet, including the Essex, was called to assist a humanitarian operation in Japan, hence Operation Tomodachi (Japanese word meaning "brotherhood"). All US military members stationed in Japan along side with Japanese Maritime Self Defense force worked together for over a course of a month to clear debris and aid the people who are in need of food, water and most importantly shelter and warmth, during the operation, it was winter time in Japan.
Thank you!
I knew 911 would be number one.
NOPE You know what I mean.
+Lego Mann lol
***** Yes, thank you for noticing.
I began farting uncontrollably when I saw that
+Captain Slappywacks ??
freaking 45k views and 13m subs OMG I subbed FYI... AND LIKED!!!!!
“When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.”
She said 100's of school kids were watching the Challenger explosion, it was 1,000's if not 1,000,000's! Just about every school in the United States was watching it live!
I was in eighth grade on 9/11 during a math test. The principal came over the intercom and told all teachers to turn on their TV's immediately. Our teacher tried to say no but a student got up and turned it on and turned to the news just as the second plane hit. It was one of the strangest thing I had ever witnessed, none of us had any idea what was happening. I was a waitress when the tsunami in Japan hit. Watching the news all day at work about the people drowning and the water destroying everything was a close second to watching 9/11.
I do nigga
Where's budd Dwyer ???
Absolutely!!!! That dude offing himself on live TV was beyond crazy!!!!
I was going to ask about this one.
ruclips.net/video/XvxCqCfSKHw/видео.html
Yeah they're not going to show that
right...too disturbing, I guess...
Kuka ikinä onkaan laittanut suomennoksen, kiitos paljon!
I can't believe the comments below. All of a sudden it's a competition as to which nation suffered the most deaths. Is someone actually keeping score? Is it really that important? Human lives were lost and people have a pissing contest about it. Grow up!
Lol grow up? Dude this is a top 10 video, how is it not a competition? On the other hand a better question is how does watchmojo order these events if not by number of deaths??
yawnnnzz
Your logic is blinding. But my comment referred only to other comments on this page and not the video. Thanks for your comment.
spacecowboy5000 that's exactly what I thought
spacecowboy5000
spacecowboy5000 how is this not pinned
RIP all who died in this video
Manofjelly5 rip to all who died who weren’t JAPANESE In this video
It’s crazy they broadcasted that Munich Olympic raid like the super bowl
I remember seeing the Tsunami live as it took over people in their cars trying to escape. You could see the people running for their lives. Something I will never forget.
Hard to believe it's been 12 1/2 years since the WTC attacks.
I guess time really flies.
That sound like a cruel pun...
Demanrel D.
Hi jack, you credit me with too much creativity, like I was 19 or something.
Vebinz Well, about the time is flying-thing: It really is plane and simple.
Yes, time flies when the truth is covered up in lies.
Filmtress Mu Stop watching History channel...
07:09 hearing the omgs is chilling and it obviously sounds like a disappointment
I'll never forget it... I was 8 watching cartoons straight after school. I live in the UK. My babysitter then ran into the room, changed the channel and the first thing I saw was that building fall down. I couldn't understand anything, why people hurt others. I think that was the moment I had to grow up. Just my 9/11 memory, can't imagine all the pain the victims and their families have gone through.
I may be a moron but I would put man walking on moon as number 1 in that list.
The man walking on the moon was on a Hollywood set.
This comment is sad cause it's a horrific manifestation of the lack of proper education by people like you.
sarrjel You're a fucking idiot and you have no idea what you're talking about. You're just parroting what every dumbass currently is doing by turning that piece of shit conspiracy into a joke that is spoken like it's fact. Fuck you.
thats not considered a "crazy" event.
slikdarelic
It seemed very crazy at the time!
I was home sick when the Japan earthquake and tsunami happened. I will never forget that day. It was like watching a horror film, you could see cars and homes being washed away and that was someone dying. It was surreal.
Omg Nice video duré😀😀
the earthquake in world seires my uncle has a piece of the stadium he was in it
Cool
Greetings World, We are Anonymous. For the last two months, we have been consistently reporting on a possible global conflict, World War 3 between the United States and its allies in the West, and Russia and its allies in the East. The dispute on the South China Sea has severely damaged the United States relations with the Peoples Republic of China. After the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague ruled that China's nine-dash-line claim in the South China Sea, and its land reclamation activities on islets are invalid and unlawful, the United States has been preparing to sail in the area under a so-called Freedom of Navigation principle. This has angered the Chinese. In August, the Chinese Defense Minister, Chang Wanquan told his country's citizens to prepare for, what he described as the peoples war at sea. Mr Wanquan was referring directly to the United States planned provocation under the pretext of Freedom of Navigation. China has since vowed to take all necessary measures available to protect its sovereignty over the South China Sea, revealing that it had the right to set up an air defense zone on the sea. China has also since been positioning and testing its nuclear weapons, and planning military drills on its waters with Russia. Even the United States has confirmed that China has tested an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile, which is capable of striking everywhere in the world within half an hour. Moving away from the South China Sea, we arrive in Syria. It is an open secret that the civil war in Syria is a proxy war between the United States and Russia. Russia has even intervened physically on the request of the Syrian government. The United States, unable to get any invitation, has been openly and secretly arming many rebel groups in the country, with open plans to overthrow the Syrian government. Of course, since Russia honored the invitation of the Syrian government last year, the war has been turning in favor of the Syrian government, which was falling before Russia's intervention. As we speak now, tension is mounting between the United States and Russia. Nerves are at their highest since the Cold War era. The United States, at the moment, is sitting on tenterhooks. Many officials in the president Obama administration are frustrated and confused regarding the situation in Syria. The United States has announced that it has ended all contacts with Russia in Syria. This announcement by the United States comes as Russia, beginning on September. 22nd, intensified its military operations in Syria, with the intentions to capture the city of Aleppo for the Syrian government. Diplomatic efforts to put an end to the fighting in Syria, have collapsed. As the Aleppo operation continues, Russia has given the United States a stern warning not to take any action against the Syrian government forces. In fact, there are many Russian jet fighters stationed in Syria, ready to shoot down any United States jet fighter that attempts to strike on the Syrian government forces. These developments from Moscow are not going down easily with the United States. The United States Secretary of State, John Kerry, is said to have urged president Obama to intervene and face the consequences from Russia. He is said to have even favored a nuclear deterrent against Russia. However, it appears that before Kerry could even make this suggestion to president Obama, the Russians had already gathered intelligence on the happenings within the White House. According to Zvezda, a Russian defense ministry Television channel, the country has started preparing its citizens for a possible nuclear war with the United States - because of the mounting tensions in Syria. Russia has since moved to deploy nuclear-capable Iskander missiles in its western-most region, Kaliningrad, which borders on NATO members of Poland and Lithuania. Due to how the situation has become, some top officials at the United States defense headquarters have finally spoken. These Pentagon officials have admitted that World War 3 is imminent, and that its going to be deadly and fast. The military generals were speaking on a future-of-the-army panel in Washington. “A conventional conflict in the near future will be extremely lethal and fast, and we will not own the stopwatch,” Major General William Hix said. General Hix also stated that China and Russia's armies are becoming increasingly technological, and that the Pentagon was getting ready for violence on the scale that the United States Army has not seen since Korea. His comments were also echoed by lieutenant Gen Joseph Anderson and Chief of Staff, Gen Mark A. Milley, who described war between nation states as almost guaranteed. The generals also said apart from the conventional battle, cyber battle, too, has become a reality against the United States, revealing that even smaller nations are launching it against the country. We are Anonymous. We are Legion. We do not forgive. We do not forget. Expect us.
piss off copy and paster
If is was a news reporter during Septemer 11 and I saw the plane crash, I wouldn't say "Oh my" I would say "HOLY BAJESHS!!!!!"
I remember watching the late night news one night, and it mentioned a plane flying into the WTC, but at the time (like 2am?) I thought it was a movie and just went to bed. Was pretty shocked to see that it was actually happening when I got up a few hours later.
Also, although the WTC attacks were shocking due to sudden and violent nature of a man-made attack, I personally think the the tsunami was the craziest thing I've seen. People driving cars outrunning the wave, watching streets fill with water until buildings were little more than islands, and seeing buildings with people standing on them collapse under the pressure of the water, people in cars getting carried along and boats getting washed into the centre of towns. Oh, and yeah, the Nuclear Plant going all Chernobyl on everything to top things off.
I once saw a guy commit suicide on live tv. I couldn't have been older than 14
You can probably find it on RUclips. Maybe 4-5 years ago? It was on Fox News just watching a police chase and suddenly the suspect went off the road, got out of the car, panicked and shot himself in the temple.
MissLexiMarie I saw that
Sounds like the car chase in Arizona back in 2012
I watched that
Christine Chubbuck did it in 1974. By the time you saw one, it was hardly new.
This gave me a goosebumps
I'm surprised of no inclusion of the SAS Iranian Embassy Siege. Maybe it's more of a British thing, but that was the first time Special Forces were actually caught on camera.
it was also the british public became aware of the existence of the SAS as well!
Agreed bro
Interesting.
i don't know if you guys are interested in this but as a reaction to the Munich Massacre the german anti terror unit GSG-9 was established to make sure that such a disaster would not happen again. The Problem was the german army is not allowed to operate within Germany and there were only "normal" police forces who could handle the situation because of that ...and they apparently failed!
very interesting and yes crazy&tragic as well.
Wow, this video sure is tasteful!
When Mankind fell off the top of the cage during that Hell In The Cell match.
fuck,that was crucial
