- On the 14th of December 2012, 20 year old Adam Lanza would walk into the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut armed with multiple firearms.
He had only minutes early shot his mother for reasons until this day unknown. Upon entering the school he encountered the principle along with a few other staff members who had unknowingly walked straight into his direction after he shot a glass panel next to the entrance.
Over the next 6 minutes Adam Lanza would take the lives of 26 people, 20 children & 6 staff members.
This is a deep dive into America's darkest & deadliest mass shooting on an elementary school in the United States.

The boy that stood up against Adam Lanza to save his classmates has more balls than the entirety of the uvalde police force combined.
Yup
True. But he also wasn’t told by the federal government to let the shooting happen like in Uvalde
@@kylewilliam4230 Following orders is never an excuse to be a piece of shit
@@kylewilliam4230 where did you get that from?
Isn’t that the truth.
I heard that the kids who survived Sandy Hook tragedy graduated high school recently. I am so proud of them and wish them all nothing but the best. You guys are so strong
Edit: 6.5k likes?! Whoa, if any of y’all were there that day, I hope you know you’re here for a reason.
Yep and now it’s class of 2024 who are the next kids that are going to graduate
thought they graduate next year
What kids?
@@TaylorWilmesthe... ones that are graduating?
🤣😂😂😂
His breakdown of that monkey and what it reveals about how he sees himself is the most terrifying example of why disassociation and poor socialization are growing dangers.
Whatever he said was true, modern morality is abstract conditioning, it's completely arbitrary and holds no universally inherent value
@@jasrajsandhu1658I agree. I think this is why the world has so many degenerate minds.
ape not monkey
Ape not monkey
This is precisely what he talked about. The chimp was "socialized" properly however it revolted against it. The same can be said for Lanza.
The fact some of these students have experienced two school shootings now is horrific
That girl that claimed to survive this and MSU didn't even go to sandy hook, only a nearby middle school so not really a two time survivor because she wasn't there or in danger in the same way.
There was a guy that survived the Vegas shooting to be killed at the borderline shooting I'm pretty sure though. It is all very sickening.
I know most people haven't been involved in a shooting let alone 2 mass shooting to do with the death of children and banning firearms. Crazy the universe is full of coincidences
‘Murica, fuck yeah!
@@thomsboys77i suppose we should start saying God Save the Queen every time someone gets stabbed?
@@leonardonetagamerdepending on some areas you’d hardly be able to say “god-“ before you’d have to repeat it because another person has been stabbed
I can’t imagine being the little girl who survived in the bathroom… I really hope she’s surrounded by good people. It’s hard for me to fathom that level of trauma
?

Hi!
In response I'd like to add that children are much, much more resilient than adults.
Have a great Thanksgiving all!
being actually tortured would be much worse but ok

The story he tells about Travis the Chimp actually astounded me. He’s describing himself entirely to the radio hosts.
HE WAS A LONER WITH A BONER.
Shit is fucked, especially how he then tries to make it be a society thing and that we are all like that and we’re the “conditioned” ones. I cant imagine the absolute hell it must’ve been having this kid as a child.
@@erikvaldes4293 How about another joke Murray?
Manipulators like this POS are everywhere...nothing special about what he said
@@erikvaldes4293 Well, technically he wasn't wrong.
"My extremely weird virgin adult son who lives with me and only communicates with me via email and has been diagnosed with OCD and Asperger's is looking to bond with me. So I decided that we should bond over guns. There's no way that will turn out poorly."
-Only ever said by one woman who was killed by her extremely weird son.
😂😂😂 this is a very underrated comment 👌
lol
Read the interview his father did with The New Yorker, these Peter & Nancy were pathetic excuses for parents.
It’s like the Crumbley family. They knew their son was disturbed but did nothing about his guns, even as he was about to murder his classmates. People just don’t take gun violence seriously.
White people
What scares me the lost is how well spoken and conscious Adam sounded in the radio program. He sounded smart and interested in human behavior, and ended up just like the chimp he was fascinated with
He was fascinated because he already believed he was the human chimp.
Honestly, he is not well spoken at all. The fact that there was no inflection in his voice (not to mention the listen heavy sighing), it's easy to hear something isn't right with this "caller."
I was thinking the same thing,
Definitely a bummer. Such wasted potential of a possible behavioral scientist, because he decided to through his life away through meaningless violence. I found myself interested in his descriptions of Travis, and then remembered what became of the person describing him. Shame.
@@poling1990yeah exactly
Adam still terrifies me over a decade later. It's like you can see the insanity in his eyes and general demeanor. I was pretty much the same age as those kids when the incident happened
Eyes are the window to the soul...or lack of
100% the weird photos they put on tv when this first happened were so scary…. They were engraved in my brain for years and years
@@kianna270I agree…
Also I noted at 10:00 where they talk about his writing of 10 pages about battles destruction and war was interesting. As that’s not an easy task unless you are obsessed with the topic your writing on. You can definitely see something was stirring even at an early age.
@@seppuku- oh for sure…. He was very obviously disturbed… his mom did him a disservice by letting him not take his meds and become more withdrawn. I’ve read that they were basically only contacting thru email the month leading up to sandy hook. How could you live with your son, who you KNOW is disturbed and has many mental struggles, and just let him spiral!! She knew something was wrong with him!
Like Ryan Koberger. Same eyes
genuinely.. even the pictures of Adam as a child were eerie. he is just very uncanny in general. rest in peace to the victims.
There are basically none, kinda weird isn’t it
Yeah, this one and Randy Stair just look the part perfectly.
With the context of what he did, they do look creepy, otherwise, he is just an extremely autistic boy.
@@krioquedefinitely not the case with him, his eyes have always been crazy looking

adam is legit uncanny valley. just the sound of his voice sends chills down my spine. rest in peace to everyone who lost their lives due to this pos.
his eyes...
“Run to safety” while staring him dead in the face at 6 years old.. my dude went out a HERO. That shit brought me to tears..
It's terrifying how his pictures go from a smiling, happy child to empty, vacant, and wild eyed.
I get what you're saying, but that kid's eyes were wild from day one.
@@pattondurio and that I agree with
He had his mother’s eyes
those pics of him at the start holding the firearm and then to him growing up as a kid, they were all the same and all as terrifying
Don't fight in front of your children and don't let the mother batter the kid when he's a baby
he was blatantly psychotic yet his mother did not force him into treatment and instead, allowed access to weaponry, is insane.
Wel, she got what she deserved.
Your only saying this because you have hindsight.
@@kilex3471 if my child was that sick i wouldn't even let him touch a gun
A better option would have been to have him institutionalized.
He didn't have APD though
Imagine losing a child in this way and then having internet trolls claim it’s all a conspiracy.
In my opinion, those people are as sick the shooter.
No matter how much time passes, this story gets me all choked up.
Getting really frustrated with complete dumbasses. Yeah, I get that. Putting them on the same level as child murderers? That's wild.
@@GTNovercalling it a conspiracy is very disrespectful to the victims (not to be rude) so that is also bad.
@Moonthehoomqn For sure. I said it was bad as well. My comment was saying that putting it on EVEN ground with murdering a child is incorrect. If either of us lost a child we are going to me more mad at the person who killed our child than the person who said they don't believe it's real.
@@GTNover yea, I understand what u mean.
@@GTNoverpeople who don’t believe it are the ones digging up these kids graves and threatening to kill the parents of these children
Thumbs up for the ending, I bawled my eyes out. No sad music, no asking for likes and subscribers, the video just ends.
This is a level of respect for the victims that should be afforded more often, thank you.
I cried when you mentored what that 6 year old boy did to save his peers. A true hero indeed. Had more courage than the vast majority of adults.
More courage than the entirety of the Uvalde Police Department
@@ralphiemcdingus2075 I was just thinking that
He had more courage than the shameful Robb School cops !!!!!
@@ralphiemcdingus2075 Well said...boy i hope they see your comment...bunch of cowards !!!
@@ralphiemcdingus2075 More courage than the entirety of the police in America. RIP to that boy, true hero, there should be a statue made for him to honor his bravery.
One of the placards at the end struck me:
Catherine Violet Hubbard, Aged 6, loved animals so much she made her own business cards for 'Catherine's Animal Shelter'. "Tell your friends I am kind," she would whisper to animals when she played with them.
Speechless.
poor baby could’ve been a vet. 😔
Ow, my heart. 😭
that stuck with me too, such a beautiful soul.
Shatters my heart. Absolutely awful. Rest easy, Catherine..
this really hurt me
I spoke to my mom about Sandy Hook not too long ago. When it happened I was about the same age as the child victims. I remember her saying she cried her eyes out and had to make the choice of whether or not to send me to school, but she knew she'd have to explain to me why, and she couldn't bring herself to shatter my innocent little brain with fears of dying in the safest place I could be (in my mind at the time).
It feels like nothing has changed. We haven't learned. I'm in college and I'm afraid every day. I'm scared for my younger sibling and their safety. I hope I live to see change in my lifetime.
Well there are less school shootings today than there were 10-15 years ago so there is change happening. Change doesn’t happen over night! But it surely is changing
@@seeseees2798 Progress is progress
It is kinda sad how well spoken and intelligent Adam sounds during his radio call. He seems rather smart and I believe he may have been able to accomplish things in life. But unfortunately he chose a different, darker path.
Right
As a mother, I can’t wrap my head around not interacting with my son while living in the same home.
She was clearly a disturbed person herself.
I’m autistic and sometimes don’t talk to my mom at all in a day. Good for you I guess but not everyone is like you and just cause we act differently doesn’t mean you should pathologize us
@@Sinc3r3ly
While I understand and respect your point of view, your assumption of my statement being pathologizing is incorrect.
My daughter is on the spectrum & rarely interacts with me. Occasionally she'll come out to eat dinner, but other than that I rarely see her
As a home, I can’t wrap my head around a mother and son not interacting
As a retired paramedic, my heart goes out to the responders as well. It is highly likely this was a career ending call for anyone that had to go in and assess the patients and pronounce them as deceased. Suicide happens a lot. If you're thinking about killing yourself, get help. If you can't or won't get help...don't take other people with you.
Are you a fool? You are actually a retired paramedic and you cant do enough assessment of the day to realize it wasnt what they said it was. Do you as paramedics pronounce people dead because that what the first responders did. There is video of the first responders bringing lunch into the school with no visual trauma in their faces. Actually they looked quite playful. The nearest life support helicopters were never called, huh? Why is it that the people that are closest to something are blinded? Sandy Hook was a Government Capstone Event that was in planning for years. That school wasnt even open at the time. It was delapitated. There is 100 anomalies on the day. I wouldnt have wrote this if I didnt know for sure. I met one of the parents of one of the supposed dead children, Robbie Parker, I told him I didnt believe the BS and he allowed me to ask questions as he was shaking in his boots like someone caught in a lie. He knew I knew the truth, no doubt. Educate yourself, investigate the truth about Sandy Hook. Without a shadow of a doubt this shooting didnt happen and guess what, Adam Lanza never existed, he is figment of your imagination created by Our Government. Shameful what this world has come to.
Totally. But I honestly think it’s more than that. The media plays a massive part in the decisions these people make, imagine feeling so dejected with life and rejected, the media makes it very appealing to finally be noticed and get your revenge. They need to stop focussing on the attacker. Also thank you for your service 👊
When children are the victims of murders or suicides, that's hard on anyone with any empathy. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. I thank them all...the cops, paramedics, firefighters, doctors, nurses, even the crime scene photographers.
Just imagining going into the bathroom filled with the children killed, is driving me crazy :(( I don't know how these officers, paramedics survive after seeing such a scene.
I can’t imagine being a first responder on the scene of a mass shooting, nontheless involving the obliterated bodies of children…. Ugh
I went to a school nearby Sandy Hook and we used to have a pen pal program between the kindergarteners and our 5th graders. That day was horrible. We sat in lockdown scared for so long not knowing what was going on or what happened to Sandy Hook. My cousin’s pen pal was one of the victims. It’s burned in all our memories here in CT. RIP to everyone lost in this tragedy 💙
But you said you were pen pals with kindergartners. The victims were 1st graders.
@@cannibalcupcake333 wow they remembered something a little incorrectly from a decade ago, crazy huh
@@Wild_flower_415Assuming this person is actually who they say they are you mean.
The way his eyes are always open like that says it all
The fact that Adam seemed to connect so deeply with the story of the chimp more than any other human. As if it was himself, is just wild.
Defending him like he would defend himself… interesting now that you point it out
he just needed to be ditched in a jungle so he could live with monkeys. Too bad his parents thought he was human.
Meh. I like animals more than most humans. They’re innocent, they don’t have hateful feelings, that don’t make me a gawd damn mass murderer.

His voice is smooth, he is articulate, and he knows what he's doing -- he didn't 'snap' one day. He was evil, he knew it, and he was fine with it.

The fact that he had that death stare even as a child is unsettling
This was a fantastic video essay, I really enjoyed listening to it. I think you did a great job staying objective and presenting all the facts. The radio call was especially chilling. I really liked the ending, with tributes to each child and what the families have done in their memory. anyway great job and thank you for making this!
The fact that Jesse was able to stand up to Adam at such a young age…that kid is truly a gem. So many young lives were taken in a completely preventable instance. May they all RIP
But he really didn't. This is a myth spread by his family. In reality, he was found on the other side of the room and had no chance to say or do anything. You can confirm this in the state police report.

@@oulo5019 Not insulting, just a basic observation.
I've never actually seen all the victims and Jesus it almost made me cry. Those babies didn't deserve that. Neither did those teachers. The fact that a 6 year old was level headed enough to push his friends to run and saved their lives is incredible.
@@sirbader1 why would they release autopsy photos of murdered children for people to find on Google? Use your brain man, just because nobody has access to them doesn't mean they don't exist. And even if they don't exist its not like we need to see dead naked children cut up in a Y incision. Especially when we already know the identities of all of them

The UA-cam channel is DEFINITELY his. He uses the same voice, enunciation, and accent, he talks about his hatred for ‘society’ which links to his Word Documents and his radio appearance, he talks about his diagnoses which link to the reports. The videos are the most interesting pieces of audio I’ve ever listened to, it is definitely him. In one video he even talks about an essay on p*dophilia he wrote, which was later found on his computer.
Thank you for including the stories of the children who fell victim at the end. They deserve to be remembered.
Adam even as a kid just looks wrong, like violent outbursts are just under the skin. It's a uncanny valley sort of situation.
@@isaiahbyrd7973 on god he looks like a psychopath
@@isaiahbyrd7973 like an outburst of every single emotion at once…elation, joy, anger, pain, depression, hatred, violent/suicidal tendencies, mania, enjoyment, digust…just all of it. Til’ his eyes look like their about to explode along with his head.
Same as most of the others mass shooters
He's a sperg that's why.
So he looks black to you?
There were lots of warning signs that Adam desperately needed help, and they were largely passed off or ignored altogether. This is a tragedy that could have been avoided. Adam’s behaviour should have been investigated by his parents and medical professionals. It just breaks my heart that this happened at all.
at the end of that day it’s no one fault but his idc what’s wrong with u, u don’t kill little children
I know it's not the right thing to do.But if these,people,are so broken and can not or will not get help,wouldn't it be better if they would just harm themselves,not innocent children,or innocent people who have nothing what so ever to do with the issues u have going on.

Excellent and very informative video. Thank you for making or sharing this.

That phone call to the radio show is actually insane to hear, it’s so fascinating hearing that and realizing this kid was actually intelligent
@@K.Adamsan well sir, you can respectfully shut the frick up.
@@K.Adamsan the 6 and 7 year old kids were the bullies?
@@Silvery12 Bullies come in all ages!
@@K.Adamsan he was a monster who killed innocent kids how is that a hero
@@K.Adamsan bait. I'll take it. I think he was an idiot who went down their own rabbit hole. He could have had a great mind but made the worst conclusions and decisions. Guilty.
Somehow, despite being a physical human just like any of us, something about his face and eyes make him look so uncanny and scary. He’s not hard to look at or ugly, just unsettling to look at. Idk what it is.
Kind of like an AI depiction of a human? Yeah... about that.
It's called photo shopping and now "CG" computer generated.
For me, it's his eyes. The irises are smaller than normal, which gave him a constant deer in headlights look. His smile is also unnatural because it's always forced, most likely due to his disabilities. He was likely mimicking smiles more than actually smiling.
@@vernonfrance2974 those aren’t photoshopped, brah
@@trashyraccoon2615 No one had seen him in that neighborhood for three years which was when the parents are said to have divorced. No one has seen photos of him and his "brother" together. The photos are weird but like other aspects of this case are not well documented as to their authenticity. He was said to be shot in the back of the head. Why would he choose that location and also why even kill himself if he was trying to set some sort of mass murder record as we were told he was trying to do?
His dead body was never seen and they hid the location of his alleged burial.
His death was registered in the Social Security records the DAY BEFORE the shooting. Of course, the answer given is that it was 'human error.'
Why was one of the Alleged Victims on a poster of a dead victim in a shooting in Pakistan?
On Dec. 16, 2014, Pakistan experienced the deadliest terrorist
attack ever to occur in that country when 7 members of the
Pakistan Taliban, aka Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), entered
the Army Public School in Peshawar and opened fire on school
staff and children, killing 145 people, including 132

I'm a local. Roxbury, Ct. And just want to say. You did a very good job on this. And i also want to share. I've seen. And had encounters with adam. You showing the DDR videos gave me me chills. It reminded me that I've actually talked to him before. He was a very odd individual
I was in middle school when this happened. I was either in 6th or 7th grade. I'll never forget walking into my math class and seeing on the board a heart felt message from my teacher about how everyone was loved and expressing her grief over what had happened. It wasn't until I got home that I had realized why she had written that message. I remember seeing a tribute video that had been made not long after it happened and it showed the faces of the adults and the children who were senselessly murdered. It was when I saw their faces that it genuinely hit me just how tragic this event was, and I cried my eyes out. I've always been a highly emotional person my entire life, hell I'm sobbing as I type this. The Sandy Hook shooting has always been the massacre that tore me apart (not to say that other school shootings were tragic because they absolutely are) and I think it's because it was such a savage and heartless attack committed on children who hadn't even reached 10 years old. I often ask myself how can people be so evil as to mow down toddlers in an elementary school like they were nothing more than prey. How someone can be so vile as to even lay a finger on such innocence, let alone riddle them with bullets and strip their lives away so cruelly before they had even gotten the chance to live them. I think about the survivors, how traumatizing it must've been for them to have not only been potentially lost as well, but to have had to walk around and over the bodies of their friends and peers. I think about the loved ones of everyone who was lost. Parents, siblings, spouses, children. I've never been able to watch anything about the Sandy Hook shooting without bawling my eyes out by the end of it. I am praying that every single person who's lives were cruelly taken from them are in Heaven now, free from all pain and sorrow.
And to Adam Lanza I say this: I know that you are in the deepest pits of Hell. I know that you are writhing in agony and have been for over a decade now. You had no right to do what you did. A day will come where your name will be forgotten, lost to time. No one will remember you. No one will miss you. No one will love you. When you put a rifle to your mother's head and to the heads of the 26 innocent people you murdered, 20 of them being children 6-7 years old, you surrendered your humanity. You are nothing more than a cowardly demon who preyed on the helpless and now you will remain helpless to the suffering you will endure for all of eternity. May you and all others who came before you and will come after be met with terrible suffering as punishment for the evil you've committed.
I absolutely 💯 love ❤️ your comment and the time and effort you put into words is commendable. God himself only knows the level of suffering this individual caused and his final fate.💀☠️💀.
Well said.
Amen.

This is not something I have ever really talked about. Sandy Hook is a horror I will never forget. Mrs. Barden. Daniel Barden's mother was my second-grade teacher in 2012. She worked at Pawling Elementary School, NY. From what I can remember, she was a lovely, kind, and thoughtful person. I remember taking a spelling test one day in December. As someone who had undiagnosed Dyslexia at the time, I was pulled to the side of the class and helped by Mrs. Barden. I remember the classroom's phone ringing and Mrs. Barden telling us to stay in our seats and that she would be just outside our classroom.
The table I was sitting at was the closest to the room if I remember correctly. I remember heading her gasping, her knees hitting the floor and her letting out the most heart-reaching scream I have ever heard in my life. We were terrified. I don't think I will ever forget about it.
I remember my twin sister's class was across the hall and her teacher rushed out to see what was happening. My sister's teacher rushed us into her room. remember sitting with my sister being so confused. The rest of the day no one would tell us anything. I remember we never finished that spelling test. Mrs. Barden would not return to work for my school until the end of my fourth-grade year as a sub. My school and town did so much to help the What Would Daniel Do? campaign.
There are still people in my town with those green WWDD magnets on their cars. I have a WWDD bracelet on my desk still. I don't think I will ever forget that day. I have never really talked about it to anyone. I am currently a senior in high school who is graduating in just a few weeks and somehow stumbled upon this video. This has given me a sense of closure I did not know I needed. I know you will probably never see this comment, Ape Huncho, but thank you. Thank you for helping me in a way I did not know I needed.
Enjoy your summer!
Congratulations on graduating. Have a great summer, and God bless you.
Staged
Prayers
Congratulations !
To the boy who stood up to Adam to let his classmates survive, you young man are a very brave hero. You sacrificed yourself for the sake of others. You will always be remembered as a hero. Rest easy to the ones that were lost that day. May you all be at peace.
hey fellow DOOM fan
But he didn't. He was found on the other side of the room and all the witness reports refute this narrative. This is just a lie being told by the family, to which they know to be a lie. This is all well documented in the state police report.
That broke my heart. He was so brave and mature for his age. Beautiful soul
@@aaronvigil9910 Do you not read threads before commenting? This never happened. The location of his body and the statements from the kids that survived in that room proves this and was noted as such in the state police’s final report. It’s just a myth created by Scarlett who knows it’s not true.

Wow. I had never heard the radio show recording before, and it was truly chilling. I’m from Massachusetts and the case of Travis is very well known in New England, I actually wrote a paper about it in college. His commentary about Travis is incredibly disturbing given Lanza’s crimes and offers some rare insight into the mindset of a person who committed unimaginable crimes. It was unsettling to listen to.

The fact that there's girls, and some guys if you squint, who think people who do things he's done are "cute" frankly makes me want to throw up everything in my stomach for a month straight.
It’s disturbing to hear how intelligent and articulate he was. He makes some good points about raising children.
I feel guilty thinking that
Don’t feel guilty he articulated well but his whole argument is full of logical fallacies and he is really stretching to make his point. Just because someone speaks well doesn’t mean their ideas are true at all
He has good word comprehension but his views on the world and society are child like. Yes chimps are our closest relatives but our social structure is far deeper and more complex than a chimp. And the society we have created for ourselves is natural for us as humans to live in. What he is saying in that call is the equivalent of a crazy person saying “I’m not crazy, the whole world is crazy, I’m the only normal person”. I’m mean he is literally comparing people to chimpanzees
Nothing he said justifies shit, i dont care if your mentally challenged, feel like the world screwed you or whatever the fuck, you have to be a sick fuck to even imagine doing this type of shit, and he deserves to rot in the bottom of hell, he was even such a coward that he killed himself to not face his consequences, this stuff enrages me beyond belief, i wish he went to prison so gen pop could extort and torture him for life. 😡
I was just thinking about how its said that a "cornered animal is most dangerous". In this instance and many others I see that people are cornered or in a little room & cover in fear..but what if they reacted more like animals that face & rush forward on an attacking enemy like this, like a hive mind group (think Bees) or Bears for that matter in ferocity..Sacrificing & possibly giving up the self in order to defeat an attacker as quickly as possible. Run towards not away & many of these horrors could end as soon as they start. Everyone's a hero. All the men should definitely run towards these Shitbags like a lLnebacker. Easier said than done I'm sure.
it's sad listening to the interview about the chimp because we see inside Adam's mind that there really wasn't much difference between a "chimp" and a human being. He even goes as far as calling them are "closest living relative". This is a clue that his life was likely pretty secular and lacked a true sense of spirituality. When you subtract God from the human story, we are nothing more than primates, just slightly more sophisticated Chimps. This is the danger of the lie or the "false religion of evolution". Because without God it becomes very easy to devalue human life and see ourselves as animal and ugly. Despair sets in....and acts of violence are not far behind. What a shame.
The media mostly portrayed him as quiet or hardly capable of expressing himself. Disabled to the point he probably wouldve been incapable of introspection. Just totally aloof. But hearing that radio call and how articulate and introspective he was really illustrates how mindful and aware he was in what he did that day. A psychotic break may have gave him the confidence to finally do it, but he clearly knew the full impact it would have. Very chilling.
No just because you can talk and do things does not mean they are not psychotic. Hitler was psychotic phycopath.
I feel that. But he also said in the comment after that he wasn’t speaking as he normally did. He probably was a smart kid. But was blinded by rage. He very likely was not understood and did not care to understand anyone else. He’s the type of kid that could be left by himself for days in a house filled with other people
Exactly!
After hearing him talk about Travis the chimp, I realized how aware he was.
He could it type it.. then read it out loud, but yeah you're right! , enough capable to my understanding
So is this Trump`s fault or BillyBob the deer hunter in Alabama? I have a great idea...lets ban all guns right before the collapse of the food chain and before China invades the USA! That`s the plan, right? The concepts outlined in the Constitution are outdated old white men ideas. Freedom only gets in the way of government control and tyranny and that`s BAD BAD BAD for the leftist genocide plan!
This was a good video. Thank you for going into details over the hero’s that saved lives that day.
Fuck. His eyes are "like a doll's eyes." Or like the fake parents from Coraline.
The fact that there are people who call this incident fake and harass the families of the victims is quite sad and horrifying
There are fucked up people out there is even a cult that idolize Adam Lanza on 4chan.
Alex Jones was right. These parents are liars

Stranger things have happened . Make sure to keep an open mind and question everything that occurs in our world. Unfortunately, in today's society certain things are understandably questioned ... Take into question 9-11... There's more than enough evidence to support that what was put into the media and told to us citizens was not factual. A lot of things happened and occured that day that anytime it's questioned there's never a plausible answer. There is an agenda being pushed in this country ... An agenda for control . Whatever's needed to impact the psyche of the people will be implemented . In a country that seems to be desperate in obtaining it's citizens arms and overlooking it's second amendment certain things are bound to happen or take place .

The images of these sweet babies at the end of the video feels so tragic and so final. As the father of a six year old little girl who is so full of life and love and dreams and questions and curiosity, I don’t think I could or would want to survive in this world if something happened to her. She is my everything. The fact that Adam Lanza took that away from these children and their families is beyond comprehension.
Yes, it’s a heartbreaking story that should never have had to be told. I hope your daughter is doing well and all the best for you two.
It's so sad, especially with all the recent shootings that have happened. All of these kids knew nothing about life yet, they were too young. Those poor families, and survivors that lived through it. my heart goes out to them.
Newtown is also a terrible school system for students with special needs/disabilities.
So sad just soul numbing honestly.
As an uncle I can’t even imagine that happening to my nephews. Take care everyone, crazy times we all live in god bless.
Thank you so much for putting the tribute to each one of the children, it is so important to remember them as the beautiful creations they were and not just as numbers
His argument about the monkey was HEAVY.
If I remember correctly, he basically said: they took a neutral being, a monkey from the wild, exposed it to American culture, made it live as a human, and eventually it became depressed and volatile.
And the DJ's response was ".....I've never heard about this monkey." BUDDY, I don't think this call was really about the monkey.
I really love the inclusion at the end of showing the victims, not only just their names and faces but a little bit about them. That's something I think should be done more, people fixate on the murderer and give them all the attention when we should also look and honor those that lost their lives. Great video as always Ape, you are quickly becoming my favorite youtuber for these subjects
There were no victims! The only victims are our minds!
Did you know: it'll be the first time in recent history, where they ignored their new Nationwide policy of not leaving any children behind on the scene!? That decade prior to that they announced that any child victims would be pronounced dead at the hospital as a good faith effort to the family that they tried to save a life!👷🏽♂️
I never knew/forgot his name until I watched this video. I think the media did a good job on ignoring him, so to speak. I believe they started doing that after Virginia tech shooting. Don't know his name either
Agreed. Maybe if that were the case, we wouldn't look at these cases and "oh well, shi happens, let's move on".
Still, imo these crimes shouldn't be made public at all and it would be for the best. They only inspire others to do the same and I would say that most do it for attention (not entirely, but becoming famous is certainly one of them). This Adam guy even had a list of incidents like this on his PC, which shows how much these dudes care about 'making history'.
@@russellpeffer7736
These dudes post about their intentions online. Eventually, news will catch up and their IDs will be made public or at least public among their peers.
The ideal scenario is completely ignoring these shootings, not just the criminals' names. Even if the media doesn't show their names, their online friends will know who was behind and they will be glorified. If you remove their 'legacy', what's left?
Families would certainly know about the incident in this scenario, and some would even make it public through social media etc, but imo any sort of attention should be avoided.
Really, what's the good part when making these shootings public? This shi happens so fcking often that unless these shooters decided to simultaneously hit dozens of different schools, no amount of public outrage will be able to make these crimes stop.
That ending hit hard. As someone growing up in the 2000s and 2010s, it's honestly heart-wrenching to think what these kids would've grown up to be. They would've graduated high school in these upcoming years, having a bright future. Mental illness is a real world problem and we need to discuss it more to prevent mass shootings like these.
Less guns would help.

@@mapples007 not necessarily, if you are determined enough you will find a gun eventually. the bigger issue at hand is as pwnchy specified; mental illness
No one wants to address the elephant in the room. They want to blame non-issues such as oversaturation of firearms, to blaming moderate issues such as pharmaceuticals... But no one wants to talk about why these events are really happening.
What baffles me is that so many people around the world seem to care about Americas kids and gun laws more than a lot of Americans do.
A few years ago I realized that I’m actually the same age many of the victims would have been had they survived and that’s truly gut wrenching. I remember a day in 2nd grade we were on the track and all immediately called for a lockdown out of nowhere. I at the very least never really questioned it and went on with my life only to realize last year that was likely the day sandy hook took place.
His eyes are just the creepiest thing ever, even as a little kid. And it was haunting to watch him in the videos.
Frrrr I had to keep covering his face it just so creepy

@@menstrualdissonance 🐱🐮
16:44 The way he says this is so haunting, like he's clearly referencing himself and he's so specific about being mentally handicapped. He seems so aware that his mental state is not healthy and is just obsessed with violence when it shouldn't be
21:65 is also crazy too bc he mentions this person potentially being a “teenage mall shooter” so why is he referencing to mass murder at this point? He was obviously deeply disturbed already. And I’m wondering if he was contemplating that exact event before deciding to shoot up an elementary school
Adam Lanzas stare is just the most scary thing ever
This video has more photos of Lanza than any other source I could find online.
His portrayal of the chimp story is shockingly articulate and well said in my opinion....this guy clearly had the tools to be a productive member of society. What a shame he turned out to be a monster. RIP to all victims.
Well said
He was obviously intelligent. But sadly, this can happen when someone feels as if society has failed them due to a lack of proper supports. He was left without reliable treatment for his many mental illnesses combined with a lack of any real relationship in his life. We see over and over again how poor parenting greatly contributes to very sick-minded young men.
He never had tools to do anyhting but harm to others as someone who can read faces and eyes as no other you can see in his eyes from a very early age that something was very wrong
@@aapiekiller100 I was going to say the same thing...this kid was clearly twisted beyond repair
Not really,
He missed the chimp in question had become mature of age and was ready to mate so his system was full of testosterone. It's common knowledge that chimps of that age are dangerous at home and normally are given to sanctuaries where they can mingle with others.
He made a chimp normal behaviour into a disability instead of the norm .
His call into the radio station gave me chills. RIP to all the victims.

@@waynesilverman3048 I think he thought that at first but as he started explaining his theory it made more sense. I felt the same way
Mind you he does sound intelligent
@@waynesilverman3048 he does. Very articulate
@@waynesilverman3048 I don't think he said anything in that interview that would have led me to believe, if I was the radio host, that he was troubled. Besides a slightly interesting cadence to his speech - the kid was super articulate, and I actually thought the connection he made between a mall shooter and travis the chimp was extremely interesting. I think that, because he's seemingly intelligent, our brains don't process him as a threat because we can't really comprehend how intelligence would correlate to the act he eventually committed. This honestly makes things more terrifying to me, because it makes me wonder what other things he thought about, and what other connections he made. He was simply not present in this reality.
UA-cam has horrible timing with ads. This documentary was completely unwatchable because of the constant bombardment of ads every minute and half
Now they have banned ad blockers it really sucks.
I was in fifth grade when the Sandy Hook shooting happened and I remember the effect it had on everyone. Someone in my neighborhood was having a block party to celebrate the holidays that night and everyone was really quiet. The following Monday I remember that my school gave us papers to take home that were related to the incident for our parents to read. It was probably something about how my school was going to amp up its security in response to Sandy Hook. My mom used to leave the radio on for my little sister and I while we fell asleep. For most of December she left a radio station on instead of the usual calming nature cds because they played Christmas music. I will never forget the one night when I heard the radio host talking about the shooting and how the families that lost their children lost them right before Christmas. I think that was when I realized just how real it all was. I realized that it could happen to my school. I could be gunned down or one of my sisters could be gunned down. It was as terrifying as it was upsetting.
Listening to Adam talk about Travis the Chimp on that radio show was so difficult for me because it reminded me of that night. It reminded me of the night where the reality of what happened to Sandy Hook settled in. I am honestly surprised I made it to the end of this video because this tragedy just upsets me so much. I’ve heard a lot of millennials say that Columbine was a real eye opener for them and made them live in fear of the same thing happening to them. Sandy Hook was that for me.
May all of the innocent people that lost their lives on that day Rest In Peace.
Adam's view of Travis is actually really fascinating, his knowledge could have been used for so much more. Instead, he decided to maim our most vulnerable, an absolute sicko.
i think he was talkign about himself, He says we cant blame the chimp for its violence, we should blame society. Adam knew he was sick, knew he was gonna be violent and do something horrible. He blames society for the way he turned out .He knew he was born messed up and no one could help
100%. It's almost Unabomber-like. Genuine, eye opening views on civilization that in any other setting would be almost profound, only to go about it in the worst way and completely ruin any actual benefit society could have gained from these thoughts.
He thought he was saving them. He was suicidal. Generally people like that realize death is more merciful than a life of misery. Our craving for life is an idiotic whim that is caused by nothing but a biological urge to spread our species. There is nothing wrong with dying.
Adam is a direct product of our society
@@alexmarshall8187 It's not Unabomber-like in the slightest. Ted Kaczynski made concise, brilliant and accurate productions about the future of industrial society, and how the need for efficiency will slowly overwhelm humanity and society. Adam wanted to be thought of as a profound intellectual with brilliant world views, however in practice they were rather elementary. His views did not consist of any new or intuitive observations about humanity. In fact, in all likelihood he knew who Ted Kaczynski was, and wanted to be remembered as a messianic philosopher similar to him. He often used the phrase "surrogate activities," a phrase coined in Ted's manifesto. He simply just despised being alive, and as such, despised humanity.
In his college essay about pedophilia he sympathizes with sex offenders, comparing predators caught and exposed on Chris Hansen's show who later killed themselves to a homosexual man who was secretly recorded having sex with another man in his dormitory. This man also killed himself. Lanza argued that pedophiles should not be treated this way because it is just another human sexuality under the rainbow, saying their LGBTQ+ brothers denied them. Not once in the 23 page essay does Lanza address the core reason why pedophilia is an issue and is frowned upon, that the brain does not fully develop until 25 and an individual so young cannot make those decisions.
Travis's case itself is interesting-- Adam's use of it as a metaphor for himself and a justification for his later actions is completely and utterly worthless and nonsensical. "Closest living relative" is still extremely far away; the creature he is referring to has an iq of 20 and cannot speak via language. It cannot learn the social behaviors and customs necessary to survive in human society. Using it to relate to a human being in this context is complete nonsense. By viewing his beliefs as some kind of brilliant insight you are giving him exactly what he wanted; recognition as a brilliant messianic philosopher. He isn't.
Society only has things to lose from such cynical and close-minded thoughts, to think that adopting a mindset of hatred and anti-natalism would benefit humanity. It's silly. Lanza was above average in intelligence no doubt, having hacked into a government computer at the age of thirteen. But his thoughts on society weren't based in any profound understanding of humanity, they were based in a life consumed by misery and isolation from the moment of birth. He wasn't thinking about society or humanity in an attempt to understand it from a new perspective. He was thinking about it with the goal of justifying his hate for the world. He was never happy his entire life, and therefore, all of culture is a disgusting virus and needs to be wiped out.
I don’t want to sound narcissistic, as I’m sure many true crime fans would agree, but the details kind of blur together eventually and the worse and worse things people do can tend to be ignored. But telling the child in the bathroom, “Well…you’re here.” Is probably one of the most bone chilling things I have heard. What a shocking thing to say to anyone, let alone a terrified child.
Then you can take comfort in knowing this never happened. All interviews from the surviving students of rooms 8 and 10 confirm he never spoke throughout the shooting and was the final conclusion from the investigation.
It’s really not that shocking considering that Adam is on the autism spectrum. People like that aren’t much interested in the emotional aspect of things. By definition of ASD (autism spectrum disorder), which is a personality disorder, they struggle to make and therefore experience emotional connections. So to say “well, you’re here,” was just consistent with how he was, blunt and factual.
@@dukeonwheels Fair point, honestly. I remember he’s on the spectrum but forget to take it into account when thinking of his actions 👍🏻
@@dukeonwheelsWrong on multiple counts. People with autism spectrum disorder have emotional depth and complexity but differ in how it is expressed. They tend to struggle less in lacking emotionality and more in communication and social dynamics. It may seem we're in line on that last part, but the way you put it is that it comes from a lack of empathy, which is untrue. It is not a personality disorder; that is a seperate, very different diagnostic category. It's a neurological and developmental condition. I didn't put this all too lightly because your comment spreads misinformation that could cause people to misinterpret the tragedy along with autism itself
@@alexbaker3958 I never said or implied that those on the spectrum lack empathy. I said that those on the spectrum struggle to make and experience emotional connections to illustrate that it doesn’t come as naturally or easy for them as it does for other people without the condition. I’ll cede that I misspoke about the type of disorder ASD is, but that wasn’t really the point of my comment. It was just offering an explanation of why Adam said what he said to the boy who expressed he didn’t want to be there. Yes it came across as shockingly cold (as if he could have said anything to make shooting the kid dead any less horrific) but even Adam himself was remarkably self-aware and candid in admitting that the way he comes across to people in speech is less than savory. That suggested he was actually considering how other people received him and felt about his behavior towards them. He had nothing to gain from admitting such a thing after the Travis the Chimp interview, except to feel less mortified I suppose. A person who said this can’t possibly lack empathy-at least not entirely.
Hello, I live about 20 minutes away from SHES. My best friend at the time was in attendance on that day, as well as another one of my close friends. I was home sick in 2nd grade at the time.

those babies 💔💔 this hurts so much to watch but thank you for the information 🩷
I've worked with kids and adults who had special needs, and there's one thing I learned: they've got to be taught life skills early on. When I say "life skills" I mean physical self-care, like laundry, preparing meals, and cleaning their home. For a kid like this, basic home skills are more important than others. Social skills may take longer and might never be complete, but they can learn to care for themselves. Adam Lanza at 20 was hiding in his room all day, all week, all year, while his mother was cooking his meals the way he liked and doing his laundry. Therefore, she should not have been taking him to get gun lessons. If he refused to do anything around the house, he had no business being taught to shoot.
💯 she fed the beast for sure, it gave her a purpose. Adam really did describe his own situation when talking about the chimp. He had no business being held in captivity. Had he been out on his own and not living with his mom, perhaps he would have developed some skills to get along in life, and of course would not have had the guns. But that was not the case, and his reality was very warped.
Sadly his mother enabled him, rather than be a parent; she was a friend. Worse yet is that this is not isolated behavior, we see this type of enabling a lot these years, where parents don't want to be parents.
@@Suisfonia someone who gets it. My father was into everything I did as a child. Constantly teaching right from wrong. It all falls on the parents, not video games.
MondoBeno Adam Lanza was able to drive a car and he had a disability. It seems like Adam Lanza had no pets or a girlfriend, so he was not trying to have a good life.
A big consideration is the possibility of being prescribed psychotropics. Which can psychotic episodes. I notice with all these mass shootings this is either not looked at or not publicly disclosed.

As a sufferer of Sensory Processing Disorder myself, Adam haunts me because our stories are similar.
Granted, I've never had the desire to act on any insane impulse I've ever had, but even so.

@@chickenlover657 That's not at all what I mean. I'm saying it's kinda scary that I can relate to him in some ways, despite having Zero desire to harm anyone.
@@splunkmastah4609 That's perfectly fine. A healthy mind can discern between things. For example, if some psychopath made a beautiful painting I could acknowledge the artistic quality of it, regardless of who the author is. Similarly, if my opponent makes an amazing move, I can still appreciate its brilliance, without that altering us being adversaries. When A.L. talks about the chimp I can totally understand what he's saying and recognize his eloquence and some great points he makes. That doesn't make me him or want to do what he did.

What about the mystery mini-bus that allegedly took some first graders to Gene Rosen's house instead of dropping them off nearby at the headquarters, the fire station? He told different stories including that the driver was a male at times and at other times a female. No school employee would dare just leave kids off without authorization and then disappear permanently. How did a minibus just happen to be outside the school allegedly, just waiting for the fleeing children?
There were no helicopter videos of the supposed evacuation of about 600 students and teachers.
What parents would allow their kids to remain on the cold hard floor overnight to be allegedly picked up under the cover of darkness at around 2-3 am? There would have been a vigil as they waited desperately. And they were shown only photos supposedly.

I wouldn't take these stories to seriously. Victoria Soto was commended over and over for protecting students, yet the police report said she was the first one in the room shot
I really respect that you took the time to give memoriums for the victims at the end.
The real moral of the story is that this kid was born insane but due to how babied he was raised and blocked off from human interaction that insanity was turned into malice. Insane people aren’t evil they turn evil with the right conditions.
What bothers me most about this story is that Adam attacked the school seemingly randomly. Sure he was mentally ill and some kind of sociopath, but that he turned that against children...I can only guess he saw himself as making a statement against society, but making small children and elementary staff the victims of his 'statement' is so senseless and unthinkable. There was no connection.
Of course. While I agree Lanza has always had a disturbed look, it is important to remember in many of these images he was a small child himself. He didn't become a monster until many years later.
Side note - as a teenager on the spectrum and gamer when this story came out, i remember vividly the media blaming violent video games. To find out Lanza was playing fucking DDR just shows how insulting thst narrative is.
You're overlooking the fact that he was born a monster. He was a psychopath not sociopath. If he wanted to make a statement then he would of wanted to live. He wanted everyone to be as empty as he was.
I agree w you to an extent. Not saying you’re wrong but I just have something to add to it. Sociopathic and psychopathic traits/behaviors can be observed even in an infant, so saying that “he became a monster later on” may not be so. He could’ve been one then bc like I said those traits can be observed at that age as well.
Look into libor scandal. If you have a stomach. We have been LIED to about everything. The aurora shooting, and this one, are directly connected. And the truth is way worse than the story....

I feel so deeply for the Sandy Hook kids since they had to deal with so many people calling them "paid actors" and just completely disregarding their trauma to the point that it was basically gaslighting them that nothing actually happened when some of them actually saw people dying in front of them. No only would they be dealing with the trauma, possibly survivor's guilt, PTSD, and god knows what else, but now they have entire news outlets and people on the street and internet gaslighting them and calling them liars. It's so, so disheartening.
Some people are just mindless assholes-

I was in 5th grade when my social studies teacher had us sit around her on the carpet and she told us what had happened. R.I.P to all those innocent lives lost.
I was the same age as these kids when this happened.. which means, like me they would be preparing for their senior year of high school. It's so saddening to see how early their lives were stripped away from them. And right around Christmas too. Can you image all the present's left unopened? It's so sickening. RIP.
I will gladly take their present’s since I don’t even get any.

i’m currently in my senior year too and it gives me chills that something like this happened when i was that young
I was in 9th grade getting ready to leave school when I heard about this. I was devastated when I heard a majority of the victims were just little kids, I couldn’t understand how someone could do such acts

It's quite shocking to me, how he wasn't diagnosed with aspergers until his late childhood. Usually kids, especially boys, with aspergers, begin to display symptoms at 4, 5 or 6 years old. It's especially shocking considering that he did display typical symptoms early on, such as the ones relating to his sensory issues and social skills.
Even younger now a days by age 2 you start being evaluated especially him who was not speaking yet and you usually get a diagnosis at 3 if everything is done right and parents are following up with all appointments and programs.
