  • On 22 December 1988, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher visited the crash site of Pan Am Flight 103 in the Scottish town of Lockerbie. The transatlantic flight had been flying over Lockerbie on 21 December when a bomb on board the plane detonated, killing all 243 passengers and 16 crew. The plane's falling wreckage caused catastrophic damage to a number of houses in the town below, killing 11 residents. The Prime Minister was escorted around the windswept hill where the remnants of the plane's cockpit had landed, before she gave a brief press conference at the edge of the site. The bombing of Pan Am 103 is, to this day, the deadliest terrorist attack in UK history.

      To hear laughter from some of the press is a complete lack of respect.

      Shouting at one of the Police officers to get out of the way of the camera shot is a total lack of respect who do they think they are?

      How ignorant you are in 2024. It was a product of it's time. You are the wokerati? Scared of your own shadow. Don't worry when you are 50 plus you will realise.

    It's crazy how raw emotions still stir by just watching this. I can't imagine the after effects of seeing this in person after it happened.

      You’d be surprised how resilient people are when dealing with these situations it’s like you put on a imaginary mask which you can only take off when your out of that enviroment

    I find it very unsettling that given the situation,finding humour would be the furthest thing from most normal peoples minds and yet you can clearly hear these imbeciles having a chuckle on a number of occasions. There is no justification for this.

    Has to be one of the most haunting images I've ever seen...
    Despite the debris being spread over many square miles they still found a tiny fragment of circuit board the size of a finger nail which was all the CIA needed to find the perpetrator.
    As the explosion occurred at 30 odd thousand ft its nothing short of a miracle and testament to the crime scene detective's, shame the same attention to detail wasnt observed after 9/11 rather than shipping out vital evidence.

      Keep in mind that maybe the fragment was never on the plane to begin with. Libya was likely thecperfect scapegoat at the time...

    How did anyone come up with the title Raw Footage? Furthermore how could they walk around and laugh amongst themselves with all of the lives lost here? Ill never forget the breaking news of this horrible act. R.I.P flight 103.

    How come you're uploading these at 25FPS? Surely your raw footage is 50FPS.
