Poor John. You could see how rattled and upset he is. So sad that he had to see this, but good on him to rush to see if someone could be helped. Best to you John.
John - that had to be hard to deal with. You did a wonderful job doing what you could. If you have problems related to that event, I recommend talking to a doctor who can address PTSD. They can help. Again, good work. I have PTSD myself, and I was feeling that while viewing your account of what happened. Take care
@@mustlovedogs5569 He did what any warm blooded moral human being would do. When tragedy strikes you look to help others. No, he couldn't have left because he was a witness and was likely told to stay by officers to be questioned. He didn't have to speak to the press, though.
@@mustlovedogs5569 Must not been the first to arrive at the scene of the crash. Maybe he lied during his interview. Thanks for reiterating he was a witness hearing what happened, though. Reassures my account of why he was still there.
Man this was bad, Rest easy, John I’ve seen some stuff as well, I just wanted to let you know there are people out there who can help you, and I don’t know if you’re reading this comment, but I’m here for you, and I’m sure your family is, and many others as well, it’s a really hard thing that overcome trauma, having others around plays a big factor in coming to terms.

@2:37 dam mam what a rude reporter😡 Obviously the guy is shookin up and he tells him that. I get he wants us to hear him but he didn’t need to ask like that.
Dear John thank you for hearing the sound of chaos and running towards it. Your a good man for what you did. I have spent the past 14 years of my life in various public service agencies. Accidents like this do happen. All across the world. What we can do to prevent them is educate others. Thats what you did the day you did this interview. You even educated me today. So thank you. As hard it was to define and as shocking as it may seem. Your education of informing us all. Well that may just save someone from exceeding the limits someday, and playing it safe instead of driving reckless.
It is just AMAZING with these horrible car accidents people are living through these days, and alot of times walking away from it, I used to Tow for an insurance company for totaled cars and alot of the cars I would see I'd think to myself no way anyone could of survived, then find out there was only some non life threatening Injuries, they really do an amazing job building cars these days to help passengers survive accidents!
I think there were 2 fatalities. One guy in the water and a 3rd in the backseat (that he said the driver didn't even mention anything about and the FD got out).
If you’ve ever seen the aftermath of a plane crash this is eerily similar. People still belted in their seats laying face down in a field or water. The common denominator is speed. The irony is, car crashes like this are often avoidable if people just slow down!
Speed isn't much of a problem _if_ people focssed on their d*mn driving, instead of their phone, their lunch, their screaming kids, their unrestrained dog, _etc._ or hadn't been drinking or taking drugs.
Imagine how John is feeling and then think about the Firemen, EMT's, Police and others that have to respond to this on a daily basis. My heart and prayers go out to them. I know a fireman that had to quit being a fireman after it finally caught up with him. The final blow for him was a commercial fight that noised dived into the ground. What he witnessed took such a toll on him that he had to step away and get a different Job.
John…. Thank you. Saying a prayer for you tonight and those that were in the crash. Not easy coming across a horrific accident like this. Thank you again John.
Just another day in good old Houston Texas. Born and raised there. Life is short. Enjoy every day you have here. You never know when God will call your number.
I myself see some horrific things. We just had a triple fatal car crash last week. I can understand how someone feels seeing or dealing with something like this. My heart goes out to everyone involved in a situation like this.
I seen something like this on a steel traffic light. Fireman and police actually had yellow plastic covering the driver inside twenty feet up the pole was a car wrapped around it . Never forget that.
John is still trying to calculate what he ran up on and his brain is awash in images that are haunting. Take care John. You did what you could. If you need help reach out and get help.
Thank you John L. You obviously didn't want to spend your day trying to save these tragic souls nor recount the horror for some rude guy behind the camera. I personally would have much rather heard & saw what John was trying to express before you so rudely told him he had to stare at the camera bc you somehow wrongly thought it would increase your views. I commend you Mr. John for not walking off when said camera man chose to tell you how you could & couldn't express the horror you just witnessed.
I thought that was incredibly arrogant... the blokes in complete shock, and trying to process in his head what has happened still, and this fool ( keeping in mind John is doing him a favour, talking to him) wants to direct him on what he can and can't do.
@@boostn32 yea I thought it was kind of rude. “Hey John…face me when you’re talking” Umm he’s trying to explain to you….and I’m sure it was so the microphone could pick up what he was saying but regardless…just let the man speak
I noticed that as soon as it was said, and thought it was rude. Only thinking about the quality of the interview, and not what John was so kindly doing, by agreeing to speak to the interviewer.
@@Nikki7B I'd walked away the second he said that to me. This is normally an awesome channel but that one little comment just really made my skin crawl
As far as i know, this "interview" with John was nothing but arrogant and cruel! Never, EVER tell someone in shock how to act while they are trying to say what they have seen. I hope you will recover from what you have seen, Mr John and God bless your soul ❤ Thought´s and prairs to all involved and their families...
He asked him to face him so we could hear what he was saying. He didn't do it to be cruel. There was enough background noise there that we wouldn't have been able to hear what he was saying if he didn't face the camera.
They figure the Duke boys do it so why can’t they just A good old boy never mean in no harm been in trouble with the law since the day he was born making a way that they only know how that’s just a good old boy doing 110 MPH I feel sorry for the passengers I hope the idiot drive in survive so he is butt can be thrown in jail it’s a shame they rarely ever the ones that die
I've driven a 2006 GMC Yukon since new. It's a solid, body on full boxed frame vehicle. They had to be going very fast and hit that bridge with a lot of force to shear it up like that.
Ya I hit some idiot who decided to stop in the middle of the highway off ramp in Detroit at night with no lights on going 65! My 2004 Chevy suburban hardly had a scratch outside even though the airbags went off!! I couldn't fn believe it! I got out once the smoke cleared from the airbags to look thinking my front end was gone and to my shock I had a 3in dent under my front tow bar. I bought that truck new off the lot with 100miles on it!! Best investment ever! It saved my life and my kids a few times!! I sadly junked it last year 😪 I cried as they drove away with it to part out. 😢 I remember so much snow Humvees were taking nurses to the hospital and here's my crazy self driving past them with 12ft of snow! That Z71 package wasn't no joke! I plan on buying another older one. These new ones are garbage.
Wow... I feel for John trying to keep himself composed to be able to speak, the reporter should of just left him alone😔... I pray for him and the family of the victims.. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Try driving _at_ the speed limit on any interstate I have ever driven on and you will get run over by _everyone._ And speeds seem to have picked up significantly since the original April 2020 lock-downs, and people haven't backed off since. This seems to be compounded by there being _noticeably_ fewer troopers patrolling the interstates since the pandemic.
@@nate3452 Your analogy is silly, but if you are not comfortable driving at a rate similar to other traffic on _any_ road then you are a danger to yourself and others, and you either need to find a road that you are comfortable driving on a speed consistent with other drivers, or if no such road exists, you may need to consider giving up driving entirely, which is a decision that we will all face eventually.
@@pulaski1 Thats a lie that speeders tell themselves. Truth is, all the speeders are the danger. I dont go under the speed limit. I go 5 over. Thats legal, and still safe specifically because it is legal. Legal limits are set for a reason. People like you go 15+ over the speed limit. 60 in a 45. 80 in a 65. THOSE are the speeds that kill people. Youre just fooling yourself if you really think theres any justification to speed.
@@pulaski1 Please, do us all a favor a find ANY article on someone who caused an accident because they went the speed limit and speed being a factor. Or better yet, please go ask your mother or sibling or someone you trust and know well, and please tell them your thoughts on speeding and your justifications. If they dont care, then i can see why youre the way you are. If they do care, then please listen to them before you kill someones child.
The interviewer needs to get his shit together. First of all the guy was trying to show u where he thought the vehicle came from and where it ended up. We could hear and see him just fine. Secondly, he didn't have to talk to you. Learn to appreciate the people that will even talk to you.🙄
This! So much, this! If he's so f'n worried about the mic picking him up, go buy a damn microphone. They literally cost less than $10. I get that they want us to hear answers, but that was beyond insensitive. John, if you're reading this, my heart goes out to you, and I hope you're doing ok. Seeing the aftermath of something this horrific can cause PTSD. Seek help even if you don't feel you need it. I went undiagnosed for close to 30 years. It wasn't until I saw something that "triggered" the flashback, and the floodgates opened.
“JOHN! Just look at me!” That felt SO AWKWARD!! So RUDE!! He’s not a “professional” like you dude and does these interviews. (Note sarcasm)! Go easy on our buddy John L here! Thanks John!
It was speed racer's fault. Three families forever affected. (If the three are from different families) Yes, we all know it will happen again, it's sad to say but it will.
God bless and Thank you to all the amazing people that rushed to help before the emergency services arrived I Wish all the people that survived this awful accident a very speedy recovery and sadly to the person that passed away may they please RIP and our thoughts and prayers go out to their poor family and big thank you to all the first responders for their amazing and selfless work that they all do to help others in need.
This is why you don’t speed, it a shame. Now a family is going to be torn apart and grieving while another is family awaits the outcome of the critical one. The one that is not hurt so bad will have to live with this tragedy. No one got to where they were going did they. It has now torn 3 families apart. Just slow down stay off your phone. My condolences to the family of the deceased and thoughts and prayers are with the family of the one in critical condition. My prayers are with the one that wasn’t hurt to bad. Your going to need them.
That arrogant reporter should be fired, poor John, but John got him back with a little sarcastic tone! Reporter: So, umm part of the car is still lodged in the bridge? John: Umm yes! Duh! Some of the questions that reporters ask are just plain stupid!
I've never seen anything like this and poor John I pray he will be able to get this out of his memory soon. Nobody should have to witness this nor should it happen. Prayers to all❤❤❤
Poor John. I can't imagine what he saw. You can tell he wants to break down and cry. I know the feeling. I too saw something that a 15 year old ( at the time) should never see. I can't imagine what he saw. He needs to speak with someone before his PTSD eats him alive. Rest in peace to those who didn't make it 💔
@@vinniep9562 You are absolutely right💯 no one should have to witness any kind of scene like that. It's horrible. You are strong. Always be you my friend 😊
Accidents like this are self inflicted and I do not feel sorry one bit except for the 2 passengers. The driver is totally at fault for racing or driving at a high rate of speed. It is people like this who hurt and kill innocent people on the road with their reckless driving. It says DA office working to determine charges, REALLY??? They spend 99% of their time making plea deals for these kinds of accidents. To be a DA you do not need a law degree, just know how to offer plea deals. Any car salesperson could do this job.
Many drive at that speed, whatever it was, or higher, but the driver's fault in this case was likely not paying attention to driving. Perhaps he was eating, using his phone, dealing with an unrestained dog, or any number of other distractions, from taking care of what should have been his _only_ focus_ - drinving his d@mn SUV!
What a ncredibly horrific scene that must have been. John is an example of what BRAVERY & DECENCY sounds/looks like. Crazy how that car just tore apart...
Wow that’s wild I was driving on the opposite side of the freeway and notice that whole side closed off and immediately knew it was a fatal scene for being closed off but was not aware what had happened until now
Yes! There is still part of the f@&$!” car stuck on the side of the bridge....!!! That is not the point, the point is that poor John had to witness a horrific event and 3 poor people have lost their lives! Have a heart man....😤😢😇😢❤️
Do you know when you will die? Absolutely not! this is an example of someone not knowing that they'll die that day. Most important is, do you know how to get to Heaven? Hint, it's not by what you do. Remember this, Jesus is calling you, listen to this simple salvation message. Admit you have sin, trust Jesus already took every single sin away to the very last sin, past present and future, and call out, ex, Jesus have mercy on me, for I'm a Sinner. do that all at once, call out, and you'll forever be saved!
I always think about the thief on the cross next to Jesus, he said Lord please remember me when I come into your kingdom. Jesus said today thou shalt be with me in paradise. Salvation is so simple yet people seem to think they have to clean your life up and do all this and that just bring yourself like you are he'll change you. God bless.
Do you believe the Harry Potter books to like you believe the Bible it’s a book that was written by seven different people 14 different religions are interpreted by it which ones the right one It’s pretty sad that Religion is a trillion dollar business a year and it never gets brought up Look at those big nice fancy houses them television evangelist have and half of them probably don’t even believe what they are preaching they are some great actors
@@detroit6249 You're mixing apples and oranges here. The majority of televangelists are false teachers. The Bible has been accepted as a Holy Book for centuries now. It has no comparison with Harry Potter. The majority of American "churches" are indeed apostate and worshipping the god of money, but that doesn't negate the Bible, or Jesus (God Himself).

The interviewer needs to get his shit together. First of all the guy was trying to show u where he thought the vehicle came from and where it ended up. We could hear and see him just fine. Secondly, he didn't have to talk to you. Learn to appreciate the people that will even talk to you.🙄
This!
So much, this!
If he's so f'n worried about the mic picking him up, go buy a damn microphone. They literally cost less than $10.
I get that they want us to hear answers, but that was beyond insensitive.
John, if you're reading this, my heart goes out to you, and I hope you're doing ok. Seeing the aftermath of something this horrific can cause PTSD. Seek help even if you don't feel you need it.
I went undiagnosed for close to 30 years. It wasn't until I saw something that "triggered" the flashback, and the floodgates opened.
THANK YOU FOR THE INFO JOHN L.
My condolences to the victims families 🙏🙏💔
“JOHN! Just look at me!” That felt SO AWKWARD!! So RUDE!! He’s not a “professional” like you dude and does these interviews. (Note sarcasm)! Go easy on our buddy John L here! Thanks John!
didnt really understand what happened and from whuch direction. should have panned around and let john L run you through it
God bless john, i feel for him, you can tell hes shaken up.
It's safe to say that somebody else has accepted the Darwin award which belongs to the driver.
It was speed racer's fault. Three families forever affected. (If the three are from different families) Yes, we all know it will happen again, it's sad to say but it will.
What kindof nutball does this stuff with a carload? Three counts attempted murder etc..............
Don’t let your friends kill you in a wreck.
God bless and Thank you to all the amazing people that rushed to help before the emergency services arrived I Wish all the people that survived this awful accident a very speedy recovery and sadly to the person that passed away may they please RIP and our thoughts and prayers go out to their poor family and big thank you to all the first responders for their amazing and selfless work that they all do to help others in need.
O my this is horrible 🙏🏽🙏🏽
This is why you don’t speed, it a shame. Now a family is going to be torn apart and grieving while another is family awaits the outcome of the critical one. The one that is not hurt so bad will have to live with this tragedy. No one got to where they were going did they. It has now torn 3 families apart. Just slow down stay off your phone. My condolences to the family of the deceased and thoughts and prayers are with the family of the one in critical condition. My prayers are with the one that wasn’t hurt to bad. Your going to need them.
@@baby-loves-boiled-broccoli7094 BOILED BROCCOLI?!!?!!
The reporter is very rude to say him where to look 😡
0:42 we all thought that! i’ve seen alotta wrecks driving for 22 years … nothin like this tho!
Is that over by UH downtown?
RIP DECEASED PERSON 🙏 Condolences to your family and friends at this difficult time. ❣️
Overpasses always give me the willies
They had to be going some kind of fast! What was the hurry? I bet it wasn't the important!
A new shipment of Fentynal arrived. ...
Condolences to the family.🙏.
That arrogant reporter should be fired, poor John, but John got him back with a little sarcastic tone!
Reporter: So, umm part of the car is still lodged in the bridge?
John: Umm yes! Duh!
Some of the questions that reporters ask are just plain stupid!
I've never seen anything like this and poor John I pray he will be able to get this out of his memory soon. Nobody should have to witness this nor should it happen. Prayers to all❤❤❤
Wow this is scary. Those barriers aren’t very high. Rest in peace
Poor John. I can't imagine what he saw. You can tell he wants to break down and cry. I know the feeling. I too saw something that a 15 year old ( at the time) should never see. I can't imagine what he saw. He needs to speak with someone before his PTSD eats him alive. Rest in peace to those who didn't make it 💔
For me it was 11, and (like yours I'm sure) it's not only something a kid should never see, but adults too.
@@vinniep9562 You are absolutely right💯 no one should have to witness any kind of scene like that. It's horrible. You are strong. Always be you my friend 😊
What did you see when you were 15? Now I’m curious.
@@rtroeun I saw a murder
@@BriannaMcCarty oh man, I’m sorry to hear that. That is horrible. So do you have PTSD?
Where Is the car in this video title? Only saw a Tahoe or what they commonly call a suv
I’ll give the driver an 8 for technique and a 7 for distance.
(Golf Clap)
Thats gotta be a 9.5 technique, literally can't figure the angle and physics of this one
John may god bless you sir
Accidents like this are self inflicted and I do not feel sorry one bit except for the 2 passengers. The driver is totally at fault for racing or driving at a high rate of speed. It is people like this who hurt and kill innocent people on the road with their reckless driving. It says DA office working to determine charges, REALLY??? They spend 99% of their time making plea deals for these kinds of accidents. To be a DA you do not need a law degree, just know how to offer plea deals. Any car salesperson could do this job.
Many drive at that speed, whatever it was, or higher, but the driver's fault in this case was likely not paying attention to driving. Perhaps he was eating, using his phone, dealing with an unrestained dog, or any number of other distractions, from taking care of what should have been his _only_ focus_ - drinving his d@mn SUV!
Flies off or into?
"Hey John just look at me" ⬅️ totally unnecessary....
How did the car fly off the bridge? Looks like there are strong rails on the bridge??
So many insane crashes in Houston nowadays. Did they all forget how to drive
🤷♀️
Vaccine strikes again
Look at how many people from California have moved there in the last decade.
What a ncredibly horrific scene that must have been. John is an example of what BRAVERY & DECENCY sounds/looks like. Crazy how that car just tore apart...
I don’t see the location in the details.
Condolences to all that will be affected . MG San Diego California.
I can't figure out the trajectory.
Wow that’s wild I was driving on the opposite side of the freeway and notice that whole side closed off and immediately knew it was a fatal scene for being closed off but was not aware what had happened until now
Drivers really need to leave "flying" attempts to pilots in aircraft. Don't ya think?
What the crap?!!! This is terrible. Slow down!!!
Pls San Antonio next.
I think I can Flyyyyyyyyy **** SPLAT ****
Was John "lit" ?
Poor john he is traumatized I hope he will be ok and those in car accident and Rest in Peace to person whom died.
Speed is not an issue... hitting a solid object and the sudden stop is the issue.
At least they didn't hit another vehicle with innocent people.
Why ask their name and spell it, whats the point of that?
Comment c'est possible ???
Yeah we need more of this in the country😬!!!!!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸👍
Yes! There is still part of the f@&$!” car stuck on the side of the bridge....!!!
That is not the point, the point is that poor John had to witness a horrific event and 3 poor people have lost their lives!
Have a heart man....😤😢😇😢❤️
Praying for healing for the family now.
Poor John... I wish you well and better days ahead !!!!
Kill your speed an you won't kill your passengers not in this case the driver should be charged with murder
That’s so scary!!!!!! I worry about my friend who lives in Uvalde, Texas and travels back and fourth to Ashland Kentucky all the time!!!!
Tell them to wear the seatbelt lock the doors and not to drive like a bat out of hell and be aware of there surroundings and stay off the phone .
God Bless Our First Responders
oh no that is horrible , I send Prayers to them .
Do you know when you will die? Absolutely not! this is an example of someone not knowing that they'll die that day. Most important is, do you know how to get to Heaven? Hint, it's not by what you do. Remember this, Jesus is calling you, listen to this simple salvation message. Admit you have sin, trust Jesus already took every single sin away to the very last sin, past present and future, and call out, ex, Jesus have mercy on me, for I'm a Sinner. do that all at once, call out, and you'll forever be saved!
I always think about the thief on the cross next to Jesus, he said Lord please remember me when I come into your kingdom. Jesus said today thou shalt be with me in paradise. Salvation is so simple yet people seem to think they have to clean your life up and do all this and that just bring yourself like you are he'll change you. God bless.
Jeezus isn’t real and isn’t gonna save anyone from anything.
Fucking imaginary sky fairy nonsense.
Do you believe the Harry Potter books to like you believe the Bible it’s a book that was written by seven different people 14 different religions are interpreted by it which ones the right one It’s pretty sad that Religion is a trillion dollar business a year and it never gets brought up Look at those big nice fancy houses them television evangelist have and half of them probably don’t even believe what they are preaching they are some great actors
Saved from What?
@@detroit6249 You're mixing apples and oranges here. The majority of televangelists are false teachers. The Bible has been accepted as a Holy Book for centuries now. It has no comparison with Harry Potter. The majority of American "churches" are indeed apostate and worshipping the god of money, but that doesn't negate the Bible, or Jesus (God Himself).
How horrible for the victims family. 🙏💜
I'm so deeply sorry
Why are people allowed to operate motor vehicles when they just don't get it????????????...
Drink driver I bet. Hopefully he gets held accountable. Either way, reckless driving causing someone's death. That should be atleast a few years
If you people would put down your damn phones and just f'n drive...
John is still trying to process what happened poor guy you could tell he’s nervous that’s kind of hard to witness and see something like that it’s not easy that really sucks..
For God's sake everyone needs to slow down. This is sad my prayers go out to those who are involved. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Cars DO NOT FLY!!!
the interviewer is rude
Shooting a car driving away with a dad and a 2-year-old kid in it and grazing the dad with a bullet is "aggravated assault"?
