@@jcdenton9386, “got lucky” is the atheist cope. If a literal hand came from the clouds and scooped up a sinking boat and placed it on dry land, you’d say “DOOD! Dey got lucky!”. 😂

You sure would hope so, but this was some life altering trauma, stuff youll never ever forget. Or get over. You might be better with it and accept it has happend, but its nothing you would be able to get over, but hope he died happy in his life and not depressed because of it.
Those girls protecting their uncle knowing it could mean they won't be saved is so selfless. It goes to show how much love was snuffled out in this poor family.
literally every single time you hear a nightclub mentioned in this type of video, it's a safe bet that you're about to hear the story of how it burned down
I've never had a fear of the dark until you hear "the lights went out, and all you could see was fire" Or, if you drown, you panic, then it all goes black...
My aunt and uncle own a bar/club and heard about the fire. They were shocked and saddened by it. They made regulations for parties and put a cap on how many people they would allow in for safety p, as before they would allow people in, and it would often get overcrowded, I would work the bar for some cash and I can say it would get so bad that people couldn’t move sometimes (not sure of safety) I then quit after finding out about the fire. Now they have safely in place, and have lots of new standards
The fact they were able to collect the tape strewn all over the forest that had been exposed to the elements for years and play it again is the most amazing thing
@@jrswellshows the resources available. Wish they were readily available for all cases...but if it's not a good win for the office, they claim no footage can be found
@bobbyblazini Idk man, maybe there's been a time when a cop was involved in a crime and destroyed footage in an effort to save himself or something but just because they're not going to get a "good win"? Nah.
What I don't get is like... why have someone smuggle drugs to a different country with no drop off? If he sent the man off with multiple kilos of heroine that's like hundreds or thousands of dollars he's wasting just to be evil? Like wtf it doesn't make any sense
@@powerowl2120 gangs will usually send multiple mules and let some get caught in order to get the others through more smoothly. If it's a big organisation then losing that much might be negligible, that or they hoped he'd leave the airport and they'd find him outside after passing all the security checks. That's my guess anyway
@@SuicidalMuffens ohhhh right, good shout that totally makes sense. Thanks fr i was bewildered lol, I was thinking ain't no way someone would waste that much profit just be a dick to a disabled man
_Come Little Rabbit_ is an unfortunate tale. Not only was he a man who slowly lost his mental health over time, but he was taken advantage of by a drug dealer and was executed as a result. His song is forever stained with this memory
The worst part is that I had heard about this story before but the version I heard was "A religious british person whose parents immigrated from pakistan was caught smuggling drugs" Knowing the full story I feel so bad that I just believed that narrative without knowing the full story which completely changes the perspective. Feel bad for him and the numerous people struggling with similar mental disorders.
Meanwhile morons in this comment section are praising the death penalty for the Tiede killers without even seeing the blatant problem with it in the last story, looks like the message of "we are too stupid to decide to lives and dies" was lost on them.
@@DeezN00tz99except one person tried to kill an entire family, while the other was innocent and even if he wasn’t, he still was only smuggling drugs. it’s a bit different
Hang on Ronnie!! Yeah he’s bracing his friend even though he knows this is probably their last moments. Can’t imagine the fear in that moment. Amazing that they were able to piece that footage together especially after a crash and sitting in the elements for 3 years.
What Burn did really makes me mad. They slipped out without a word and didn’t even warn anyone of the blaze. So many lives could have been saved if they’d only said a few words of warning.
It reminded me of that band from Jennifer’s Body, but this is real and so sickening. They should’ve been charged as well in my opinion. They could’ve saved people.
This is a genuine question, doesn't that mean that they could be legally charged with manslaughter via negligence or something similar? Like, I know that the club owner was charged but why did Burn get off scot free??
@@Kaltagstar96 I guess they were not legally required to inform anyone, but they still should have been charged with negligent manslaughter for their cowardice.
It’s crazy to me how resilient the human body can be, a guy got shot in the head twice and was caught in the fire and he still was able to get on a snowmobile and coherently explain what happened, and make a full recovery to testify
His wife's prayer is also to be taken into account,she prayed to spare her family and they survived, the two demons worshipped the devil and suffered the consequences
Better help is actually a terrible company that sells their customers infromation to other companies and they dont pay their therapists well. Even the ftc is against their practices.
They also sell your personal data to local authorities in regressive states which puts LGBTQ+ youths in danger as they report any information for 'proper treatment and punishment' for ' violation of local laws.' (Per their TOS)
The “Come Little Rabbit” story made me so sad and I’m sitting here crying at the thought that all Akmal wanted to do is make the world a better place and he died for it. That poor man was fully used and screwed by his friend and I didn’t even know other countries punished people that severely for drug offenses. I hope Akmal’s spirit is at peace and he’s happy to sing his song in his afterlife
Sadly, China takes drugs very seriously, and has an absolute zero tolerance policy. That will probably never change any time soon. But in places like Portugal and a few other European nations, they don't treat drug addicts as criminals. They treat them as if they have an illness that needs medical and psychological intervention and treatment.
@@tonyprice2256 than again china has ALOT of issues. they are to busy want to make everything look peaceful. rather telling everyone that half of the shit they bitch about is really not much to worry about. and they're not really good on covering things up when someone's catching dark histories. they're like the biggest crybabies and everyone else says we have issues. we may have issues but at lest we man up about them half of the time or when the damage was already done.
You also missed the part where he sexualy assaulted a 24yo, threatened to bomb London _allegedly_ and like you.. you miss out some key points from the video. It was nice he wanted to change his view despite being mentally ill, but this just shows and proves how fucked up our world is.
@@mitaskeledzija6269 there was no mention of an assault, I rewatched it and it is only an allegation of harassment. You got the facts wrong that was stated by Nick. Not saying it isn't fucked up but he was stated as having severe mental health issues.
Even disregarding all the other things wrong with the Goodbye Santika event, I feel like literally playing with fire around alcohol is a terrible idea for more reasons than one.
And people wearing a lot of cheap, flammable garments and hair products. I don’t think pyro should be done outside of a stadium, period. Too much of a risk.
@@worldsgreatestman8411 No clue why it keeps happening? Because people are generally stupid and don't learn from their own mistakes let alone other people's mistakes.
His resilience was God given. The first thing his daughter did was pray because he taught his daughter’s who their true heavenly father is. That story was nothing but miraculous.
The last story literally made me break down sobbing. It’s so painful when people are taken advantage of, to know he had a dream so passionate that he was willing to do anything to unite people. He honestly deserved so much better, he needed help and he was vulnerable, but the fact he was mentally ill was abused. I really hope he’s in a better place now
One quick bit of information: Although I'm sure most people watching this are aware, I just wanted to include that almost all automatic garage door openers have a pull cord on the inside of the garage. So, if the power does go out before the door is completely open you can crawl in and pull the cord which disconnects the opener and you can raise the overhead door manually. Hope this helps anyone if they ever find themselves in such a situation.
I though the same thing when he said, “the power shut off rendering the door impossible to open” very poor design if that’s true. Sarah probably didn’t know about the release cord.
@@joecaldwell9881 to be fair it wouldn’t have even mattered. Also, opening a garage door during a tornado pretty much is going to ensure your house getting destroyed as the wind will rush in and start to lift off the roof or entire home depending on how strong.
@@PlutoTheGod Actually not opening all of your doors and windows is far more likely to result in your roof being torn off, than doing so, because of the Air Pressure difference. With everything Open, your inside may be trashed, but the house would likely survive with its roof. But agaisnt an EF5, neither of those two options will really help
I feel so horrible about Will’s family. Imagine losing your son minutes after he had graduated from school. It’s just so heartbreaking. I really hope they’re doing okay.
I'm a Joplin native. I remember helping my buddy dig through the remains of his home on Kingsdale half a mile from the pond where they found that kid. It was an indescribable scene, complete destruction all around for as far as you could see. I remember his father remarked how he'd hate to know what's at the bottom of those ponds. It wasn't long before they found out. Seeing those old broadcasts will probably never fail to send a chill up my spine. RIP to Will and all those who lost their lives on that nightmare day.
Fellow Joplin native. Glad you're still here and I'm sorry you went through that. We walked around after and had to turn out emotions off to help so many get free or just find their lost family members. It was so scary.
Absolutely insane. I’m from Seneca and was in highschool at the time but remember going to help search for people that night and clean the following days and weeks. Looked like a nuke had gone off. Still remember the smell of gas in the air from lines leaking and the utter shock everyone was in walking around just lost. RIP Will and all others lost.
I was actually on a road trip cross country and ended up in Joplin the day after the tornado hit. We arrived at night so we couldn't see anything but when we got up to find food nearby, we were shocked that we didn't notice anything. We didn't have internet or live TV in the car so we literally had no idea what happened until we got there. It was insane.
That last story honestly broke my heart into a million pieces. I don't even want to begin to imagine how he felt or was thinking after realizing that smh.
From Joplin, MO. The tornado was horrible and my family lived 2 blocks from the pond where Will's body was found. My brother graduated that day, and it was weird knowing I was in the building that day that the graduation video showed. Everyone was just laughing and not caring when the sirens went off, we heard it all the time. The next 20 minutes going home were some of the darkest of my life. My brother was Will's friend, and it was horrible what actually took place. He was missing for days and kids kept hearing "Will is in Springfield hospital," or "he was life flighted to Kansas City." So many people co tinued thinking he was alive until ultimately his body was found - he'd been slammed into the pond and branches covering the bottom held him in place. He was absolutely trapped below and couldn't come to the surface. RIP Will, I hope your family is well
My phone was supposed to move to Joplin in 2011. The house we were going to move into got decimated. Thankfully, my dad was away from work at the time because the hospital next to the place he worked got destroyed as well.
@@AidanD1776glad your phone didn't move there, that could have ended badly. I personally would even consider letting my phone move to a different state, let alone one plagued by tornados!
But what if it’s genuine. Kinda bold to assume that it’s fake or real. His description of everything and making it not entirely about him makes it believable. Plus his age depicted on his pfp very much suggests that he could’ve been a kid when this happened
The Joplin tornado was made significantly worse by the fact that it was “rain wrapped.” Tornadoes that drop into rain can be very dangerous because the rain makes the tornado hard to spot and sometimes invisible.
Thanks dude, I have always had the image of a giant looming cartoon tornado, but hearing they can be almost invisible is terrifying. I was wondering how the dad just saw the tornado when it was so close, but if it was rain wrapped it would make sense. I was not really paying that hard attention when the first vid of the kid showed, so I thought he was talking about surviving the last tornado :(
@@JohnSmith-kt3yyit’s even worse at night because you have the rain & it’s usually pitch black since the power is out all over. There’s videos of people only seeing where the tornado is because of lightning strikes. This particular tornado was during the day but there was a tornado in Mayfield, Kentucky a couple years ago that was in the middle of the night
The last story was hard to sit through. My arab dad is bipolar and was tricked so many times, scammed out of most of his money and even threatened until he quit his job. He got no help from the authorities because of where he‘s from. We‘re not super close but it breaks my heart to think that he could’ve ended up the same way. These scammers know what they‘re doing, I wish there was a way to prosecute them for their crimes on the mentally unwell💔
Despite what everything that happened to him, Rolf still had the iron will to save his daughters from those two parasites. God bless him, his daughters, and his family. Have a Happy Father's Day, Rolf.
Love your content and while i usually dont mind sponsored segments, BetterHelp has been and continues to be a horrible company that doesn't check their therapists, pays them horribly low wages while scaming patients out of money and not even conecting them to anyone at times. I think at this point promoting their service is dangerous.
@@jaykelley103 I'm glad you did, but I have seen videos and statements from both other patients and therapists who have been on the other side of the picture have a much different experience. Not to mention Better help themselves admitted to some of this a couple of years ago and changed their wording on their site to no longer claim they would 100% connect people with certified therapists
@@WyaSlay actually people do click on ad links when their fave people are promoting it, shit the only reason I've clicked on a better help add was because of how much it was promoted before their original scandal, it was everywhere like skillahare. He could take a sponsorship from literally anywhere else, do a Raid add, idc, do Skillahare, Magellan TV, any other sponsor that isn't specifically targeting vulnerable people who are struggling with their mental health, from a service that admitted it doesn't actually properly screen their therapists.
That Akmal story is fucking depressing. Stuck in a hopeless situation, where your death is completely guaranteed due to your own completely crippled mental health. I feel so bad for him. I hope and pray that my little brother (who has severe autism/ADHD ) isnt ever preyed upon like this. This story hit well too close to home
@@bustavonnutzhe had mental illness. But it's doesn't justify what all happened to him. Imagine someone say alcohol is good. N then all of this happened to him.
As a Thai person, The "2009 Santika Fire Incident" gave me a lot of goosebumps, I've never seen a nightclub fire incident this bad before in my life. My heart and condolences goes out to the 67 people who lost their lives in the fire. 🙏
The irony of this video is what hurts. Better Help takes advantage of people who are mentally ill and suffering. I’m a big fan of you Nick, have been for a long time, but you need to address this or at least stop having them as a sponsor. They are a disgusting company who have been doing similar scummy shit for years. This is not the first scandal they have had and I’m not at all surprised they’re abusing their power again.
Given his usual upload schedule, this sponsorship deal could have very well been made before everything came out if this video was planned right after part 4 was uploaded 4 months ago. If part 6 has the same sponsor, then it might be a problem, but usually once a sponsorship has been agreed upon the creator is obligated to complete the ad read for the agreed upon video when its scheduled to come out
@@liselotteline8596 There have been red flags raised for quite a while for the quality of the services and therapists in the network, but the actual FTC charges for the straight up illegal stuff didn't come up until early March this year, so it seems reasonable to view the service before that as a "Well, some people do get a good matchup with a therapist, and others don't, so your mileage may vary". For any future sponsorships, they've definitely crossed the line, but if you asked me last year about the service I would have said that it seems like you take your chances with the quality, but it's not a 100% waste of time
Yeah, he did not deserve a death sentence. I can't believe that China is so strict on drug-based crimes that they will kill them without trial, even if they do feel guilt over what they did.
China just hates England for what England did to them in the past (opium wars and forced trade deals) and for always taking America's side in the modern day so they killed him as a big middle finger to England
If the uncle wasn’t there I have no doubt Rolf would have hunted down the killers himself. It’s amazing that he not only survived but was able to testify
well if the "justice" system fails yet again and lets either of them out of prison, Rolf knows what to do lol. What he'll do to them I'm sure will make them wish they had never been released from prison 😈😈😈😈😈
@@thesimulator4096 Generally I'm not the type of person to say stuff like this, but yeah, if Akmal was a white, Christian or irreligious person of European descent he likely would've been returned to Britain.

@@LoW-k6n We're the ones giving him views and keeping him in business. We are allowed to call him out for taking sponsors from companies that are terrible and completely unethical.
@@jimmyredd A smartphone is a necessity in this day and age. While access to mental health help like therapy is also important, there are far more ethical ways to go about it. A company that has been exposed multiple times for their unethical practices is not it. Besides, while there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, it is on you to go about life the most ethical way you can, and taking sponsorships from an extremely shady business reflects your morals, and for Nick to continue taking said sponsorships despite being informed of BetterHelp's controversies says a lot about him.
The Come Little Rabbit story breaks my heart. I can't imagine how scared and confused he must have been, and that "he's coming on the next flight and he will set this right" is so sad. The idea that he is waiting there like an abandoned dog, thinking that their person is going to be coming right back
@@robellio6190 It's actually a fantastic law. Shame this dude got tricked but it is what it is. Keeping poison out of your society is great and should be more widespread.
God I wish UA-camrs would vet their sponsors better. Better help has been a known scam for like five years now. A large amount of the therapists on that app are entirely unqualified and will miss meetings among other things. Not even mentioning the fact that they’ve overcharged people.
@@D0ttorestestsubjectbecause they don't have therapists. They have people that they hire to listen to your issues then sell the information. They do this legally by stating on the website that they do this, even if you don't want them to do it, they'll still do it because they own the rights to your conversations with their employees.
@@D0ttorestestsubject I saw one Better Help horror story where the person was getting therapy partly because their hyper religious family gave them trauma, and specifically did not want a religious therapist, and the therapist they got assigned was like "have you tried praying about it?" I think one person's "therapist" also accused them of lying about having an eating disorder?
I also wish comments like this would at least want to help Nick instead of bashing who is giving him money to continue his work. When you are struggling and trying to pump out content, you would take any money you can because you aren’t given many options. Unless you are willing to help him and give him money, then this comment is unnecessary
The "Goodbye Santika" accident literally made me shiver from head to toe because it's almost identical to a fire that happened here in Brazil in a nightclub called "Kiss" where it killed 242 people (the accident completed a decade in January of this year). The power going down, the emergency exits blocked by hundreds of people... It was something so catastrophic that I can't help but cry just remembering it.
I said the same thing about the "KISS" nightclub in Brazil... As well as "The Station" nightclub in Rhode Island which had 100 fatalities.... The videos of both of those nightclubs on fire with all the ppl trapped is so terrifying and incredibly heartbreaking!! 😢🙏💜
I went to school with Will until he moved to Joplin around junior high. I had no idea he had a UA-cam channel! His name is still all over Joplin today; I'm glad people aren't forgetting him.
I was literally pleading inside my head that the two girls would somehow miraculously survive. So many stories of this kind end with only dead victims, and sometimes even with no idea who committed the crimes.
I truly believe you're one of the better creators on the platform - don't let an association with a company like BetterHelp tarnish that. I have full faith you'll see a number of these comments, do 10min of research and drop them as a sponsor moving forward.
I wish nothing but pain and suffering for the rest of Von Taylor's miserable life for what he and his friend did to that family. Psychopaths like him don't deserve anything at all.
That sort of attitude is what likely lead to this happening in the first place... People come out of prisons in America often worse than they came in, since no one wants to actually improve the prison system. They are scum now, but important to remember that.
Better help doesn't require their therapists to be licensed, they have not changed and are still actively traumatizing desperate people. do not use better help.
I've been stating this for a long time now, they don't have legit therapists. They hire people to listen to your issues whose entire job is to record your conversations then sell it and your information to third party advertisers. It says so on their website. They're a scam but they scam people legally by posting all the info on their website.
For a lesser evil, their ad campaigns push a narrative that they're the only way to get affordable mental healthcare, when in reality there's tons of ways to get affordable mental healthcare - most providers have sliding scale payment plans based on your income, and for many of them they can work with you to be like even if you can only afford to come in once a month, they will work with you to get that once a month appointment. The place I go to is free with a lot of insurance providers (Including mine). Meanwhile I know one person said their ONE appointment on Better Help was like $600?? Even though that's significantly more than most other places charge.
Love your videos and always look forward to them but Better Help is a scummy excuse for therapy. There's plenty of reviews out there that mention they scam people out of money and don't follow therapist regulations.
They don't actually have any actual therapists, they say this on their website. Their entire job isn't to help you but to record your conversation and then sell it.
That story hurt me so bad. Absolutely tragic. I knew that he would die, but I wasn't prepared for how- or how he was found. Kudos to Nick for his fantastic storytelling and narration.
He doesn't care. Money is money to him. He also deletes comments that talk about adblocking. Maybe he will even delete this comment as well just cause I said this.
I haven't seen any evidence that they're "worse than not getting help at all", like I've heard they're not very good, like probably on par with or lower quality than the free therapists you can get through various community centers in a lot of places (who tend to be pretty terrible ime), also they sell user's data (but tbf, it p much tells you that right out of the gate in their ToS), but "worse than not getting help at all" is still a pretty bold claim
Rolf is an absolute badass. Got shot twice in the head and set on fire but pulled himself together to save his two daughters and freaking showed up in court to testify. This has to be the most heartbreaking and epic story I've ever heard in my entire life.
I would recommend hearing the story of the undead army that Mr. Ballen has on his channel if you want to hear another epic and awesome story of the human spirit in dire situations.
I can’t imagine the utter grief and pain that Will’s father did and would feel, having witnessed the entire incident. Trying his best to hold onto his son, but losing grip on him and his son being flown off….
"under the tree" is so frightening story. I can't even imagine the fear and pain this family went through the way you narrate these stories is amazing. you can create an atmosphere
They probably already knew they were fucked but seeing someone after doing all that to them must of had them thinking he was the terminator or something
Rolf was shot twice in the head, and suffered 3rd degree burns, yet unlike pretty much everyone else who sustained such injuries in the past, he just got up, and contacted the authorities about his wife and mother being murdered. What a absolute Gigachad.
I grew up in Thailand and the Santika event was massive news. Everyone was talking about it, including all the weird coincidental details discussed. All the safety standards were terrible, including flammable construction material, one fire extinguisher and literally one exit. It even became a setting for a horror movie.
I read up on it and the police tried to interfere and tamper with investigations because it was co-owned by a senior officer and illegally registered as a food vendor (and supposed to close at 12 under those guidelines)
@@spinestealer8129 sadly enough, unless you're on corporate level, no government agency would bother to hold you up to any standards, and corporates still have an option to bribe. It's a sad reality I live in. Every politician promises to eliminate corruption since forever, yet it still exists because politicians profit from it the most. We went through dozens of coups (yes, I'm not joking) in the past century yet nothing has changed.
I burst into tears when it was revealed that the father, despite all his injuries, was heading for his daughters. My god, I was floored. It’s astounding he survived, and was able to give chase. I hope he and his daughters were able to come to some kind of peace.
Right, if it were a movie, people would criticize it for being so unbelievable. I'm glad that story, as horrible as it was got a bittersweet ending in the sense that he and his daughters survived. The last story though broke my heart.

To those of you not accustomed to tornadoes, do NOT remain in a vehicle when you see a twister. Vehicles and even mobile homes become airborne immediately (despite that stupid movie that had the pickup truck driving watching a cow fly by -- the exact opposite would happen). Drive the vehicle over a ditch or any low-lying area and get under it. You're better off lying flat on the ground than taking your chances inside what would be a projectile.
As a weather fanatic, that movie is called TWISTER, the tornadoes are not directly on top of the vehicle, mostly around it, but cannot blame you but it was a multi vortex. also i think cows are lighter than a 1995 dodge ram. (around 6,010 to 6,400 pounds) the movie rated it F-1, which is around 73-112 mph, most likely not enough to toss the truck, but blow it around a bit. (but I do agree with your comment good sir, being in a vehicle in tornadoes aren't safe at all.)
@@Strawblarri Many people do not take into account the aerodynamics of cows versus vehicles. It isn't about weight but how much air is going to be able to get UNDER it. Cows aren't entirely stupid, and when a massive storm is coming while they're pastured, they lie down. Try lifting that as opposed to a vehicle that has a good 15 inches of air space under its rather large wheel base. It isn't that cows don't end up blown into people's yards, but it's certainly a whole hell of a lot less common than ending up with a car, truck or mobile home landing there. And I have seen far too much of the latter first hand.
@@josi4251 I agree, its just that even with all that airspace, the winds for an F1 are too low to just pick up a car, more likely to push it or flip it, it is just a 1997 movie after all, so I don't think we should expect it to know how to portray weather greatly.
I think Rolf was kept alive simply by fatherly instinct to protect his children I’m glad he was able to make a full recovery after such a horrific crime
Can't believe that there has been 2 fathers who survived the unimaginable, one was shot in the head and left to burn, the other was hit directly by an EF5 tornado
19:30 this story hits me the hardest, honestly, having grown up one state over to the east and in a town far more rural. tornadoes are a constant threat, to the point that yes, like the meme, many of us take it for granted and will just go outside and stare at the damn things. the town i grew up in sat in a bowl almost; my dad had once flown over it in a small plane with a friend and said it was like the town was in a crater. due to that, tornadoes would bounce off or disburse all together. i don't know if it's ever actually been hit with one before. didn't stop the terror and dread from coming when driving through neighboring towns and seeing the damages left behind. this story just reminds me of what could have so, so easily happened to us but thankfully never did. hits waaay too close to home.
Rolf is such a badass both mentally, physically and intriguingly physiologically. Doesnt make sense how he was alive after receiving 2 fatal head shots. Man is a true gangster, a testament to the soul and love between folks. Bet he felt so good during testimony
Surprisingly, you can actually survive getting shot in the head if it’s in the right place. Even parts of the brain can be shot through and you could still potentially survive. These guys just had the aim of a Stormtrooper lmao
If it means he remains the only decent horror channel left that hasnt went purely true crime or covering cases that have been covered dozens of times before, he can take a few sketchy sponsors.
The james Caddell video was a huge story here in Colorado in the early 2000s. They were really surprised that the camera was found in such a good shape. After 3 years of aging and decomposing I'm surprised any video survived at all. It's still talked about at private airports to try to teach people what not to do. Sad story, and an even sadder outcome.
Even with the horrible deaths, that 2nd story should be made into some sort of documentary/movie to show the heroic and perseverance actions of that father
If it was a movie it would turn into a Hollywood pile of trash with the dad being some Iiam Neeson type guy who's ex Cia and the family getting killed will be a gory mess with heads exploding and blood flying everywhere.
that last story broke my heart ... that man in his own right was so innocent yet troubled. He had the best intentions and was thanked for it by being executed ...
@@dcrhysie8291There's no proof he was set up, Oldest trick in the book "it's not mine, it's a friend's" Reckon Scarface over here was a connoisseur of his own product You'd have to be high to think anyone would've bought that excuse
The foreshadowing of the new year’s event being called “Goodbye Santika” as well as the band that was on stage just as the fire broke out by the name of “Burn” is eerily disturbing…
Rolf is an absolute badass for managing to pull through all that and trying to save his daughters. I hope him and his daughters were able to live a peaceful life after experiencing such a terrifying event
The "Come Little Rabbit" story is actually really freaky, 'cause when you stop and think about it, his song kind of DID actually unite the world (or at least much of it)-in trying to free him from China. Really ironic how that worked out.
Akmal Shaikh's story is so infuriating and heartbreaking. It demonstrates just how much more understanding and compassion is needed around mental illness, including awareness of how people like him are often taken advantage of. "Come Little Rabbit" may not be a musical masterpiece, but I can still deeply feel the wholesome intentions from his perspective. Although it was the basis of a severe delusion, it came from a good heart that genuinely wanted the world to be a better place. The Chinese government is absolutely monstrous for what they did to that innocent and vulnerable man who needed HELP, not lethal punishment. Speaking of mental health support, I agree with others urging you to drop BetterHelp as a sponsor. I understand that you've luckily had a good personal experience with it, but there are serious fundamental problems with it that can and sometimes do lead to harmful results. I won't get into too much detail here, but if you look it up, you'll find a lot of information about it written by highly qualified people in the field.
Stop visiting China, stop buying their cheap garbage. The Chinese government is the most evil in the world. They have already given the world a pandemic. We need to stop enabling them.
The Chinese government is absolutely monstrous period. They have already given the world a pandemic. It’s time to stop doing business with them. Stop buying the cheap products made in their country and stop using TikTok.
The last story was utterly tragic. I am at a loss for words. That innocent albeit eerie song, was clearly indicative of an innocent troubled man. Why did the Chinese government do this? Like why? Execute a clearly unstable person to send a message? What message?
@@OldManVerseI agree. But hear me out. First time it was played on this vid I laughed. But the story plays out and damn. It is actually catchy. And the meaning is so powerful I actually enjoy it.
These videos don't usually hit me this hard but the third story has me crying. He had so much ahead of him, and that got taken from him. I hope that the family is doing much better now, I see that they are trying to be happy but that grief is intense.
if you go to his wikipedia case, there's like tens on similar cases linked. So, unfortunately, it happens quite often in east asian countries like singapore too
which episode is it. if you can't answer, don't use the word "literally" to descibe something which didn't literally happen. literally, adverb "in a literal manner or sense; exactly." So tell me, WHICH episode is "literally" like this?
I would *strongly* reconsider your sponsorship with Better Help. They don't vet their counselors and violate HIPAA consistently. They do far more harm than good.
Akmal Sheik's story truly shows how fucked-up world we live in. He may not was a completly innocent person, but the truth is that he got exploited by drug dealers who used his illness to drive him into his demise.
l really have a hard time undersanding why a drug dealer would not only expend the flight ticket but risk 4 kilograms of heroine in a man that would obviously never make it even to outside the airport.
@@michotito4874 same, like he had no instructions of where to go or what to do once he got there? they completely wasted a large amount of their own product, very strange
@@owouwu5555 there’s definitely more to the story. Either the trafficker was intended to meet him just without the risk of carrying it or he had instructions of who he was supposed to meet and where he was supposed to go and that was a cover story. If he flew alone and didn’t go where he was supposed to or had the plans changed on him if he was “tricked” youd at least expect a text or call from the friend telling him what to do next with the luggage. Also what doesn’t sit with me very well is this dude was possibly in support of terrorism, and outside a bad song which many people have recorded shitty songs in their lifetime there’s not much proof for him being seriously mentally ill. So he could have been tricked, but this also could have just been another business venture of his or even a form of trafficking for a terrorist cell as back in those days they were pretty much the main suppliers of heroin and they looked for supporters in foreign countries to carry out attacks and smuggling operations for them.
@@PlutoTheGod I mean, the constant changing of his entire life (moving, whole new career every few months) and him being so certain the song would bring world peace (an unreasonable belief) are pretty notable signs of mental illness or some kind of trouble - especially something like bipolar, and his family also said he had always struggled with mental illness, imo it's pretty clear he was mentally ill, but of course no one can really say for certain if he was never properly evaluated by a professional
Genuinely, why couldn’t they send his body home? Even just to Pakistan. It’s bad enough to _execute_ a mentally ill man for unintentional drug smuggling, but there’s no reason they couldn’t have sent his remains home.
Because China, that’s why. If they could be like North Korea they would. Human rights don’t exist. They literally sealed citizens in their homes by welding doors shut during the pandemic.
@@CharlieApples Every decision in China leads back to the CCP in some form, and their strange prideful ego of strong arming other countries. They saw this as an opportunity to claim a petty victory against a western nation. And everyone who follows what's been going on in Xinjiang already knows how China feels about Muslims practicing their faith. 2 birds with one stone to them.
My heart goes out to the family but oh to be a fly in the courtroom when the two responsible for taking the lives of his wife and mother-in-law became “visibly shocked” when they saw a fully recovered Rolf walk in to testify against them. Now that’s a “My death was greatly exaggerated” moment right there.
It's not the first incident like that either. Look up the "Colectiv Club Bucharest Incident". LITERALLY the same reason why so many lost their lives that day.

I've never had a fear of the dark until you hear "the lights went out, and all you could see was fire"
Or, if you drown, you panic, then it all goes black...
My aunt and uncle own a bar/club and heard about the fire. They were shocked and saddened by it. They made regulations for parties and put a cap on how many people they would allow in for safety p, as before they would allow people in, and it would often get overcrowded, I would work the bar for some cash and I can say it would get so bad that people couldn’t move sometimes (not sure of safety) I then quit after finding out about the fire. Now they have safely in place, and have lots of new standards

@@powerowl2120 gangs will usually send multiple mules and let some get caught in order to get the others through more smoothly.

_Come Little Rabbit_ is an unfortunate tale. Not only was he a man who slowly lost his mental health over time, but he was taken advantage of by a drug dealer and was executed as a result. His song is forever stained with this memory
The worst part is that I had heard about this story before but the version I heard was
"A religious british person whose parents immigrated from pakistan was caught smuggling drugs"

Feel bad for him and the numerous people struggling with similar mental disorders.

It reminded me of that band from Jennifer’s Body, but this is real and so sickening. They should’ve been charged as well in my opinion. They could’ve saved people.

Sadly, China takes drugs very seriously, and has an absolute zero tolerance policy. That will probably never change any time soon. But in places like Portugal and a few other European nations, they don't treat drug addicts as criminals. They treat them as if they have an illness that needs medical and psychological intervention and treatment.
@@tonyprice2256 than again china has ALOT of issues. they are to busy want to make everything look peaceful. rather telling everyone that half of the shit they bitch about is really not much to worry about. and they're not really good on covering things up when someone's catching dark histories. they're like the biggest crybabies and everyone else says we have issues. we may have issues but at lest we man up about them half of the time or when the damage was already done.
You also missed the part where he sexualy assaulted a 24yo, threatened to bomb London _allegedly_ and like you.. you miss out some key points from the video. It was nice he wanted to change his view despite being mentally ill, but this just shows and proves how fucked up our world is.

One quick bit of information: Although I'm sure most people watching this are aware, I just wanted to include that almost all automatic garage door openers have a pull cord on the inside of the garage. So, if the power does go out before the door is completely open you can crawl in and pull the cord which disconnects the opener and you can raise the overhead door manually. Hope this helps anyone if they ever find themselves in such a situation.
I though the same thing when he said, “the power shut off rendering the door impossible to open” very poor design if that’s true. Sarah probably didn’t know about the release cord.
@@joecaldwell9881 to be fair it wouldn’t have even mattered. Also, opening a garage door during a tornado pretty much is going to ensure your house getting destroyed as the wind will rush in and start to lift off the roof or entire home depending on how strong.
I don’t have a garage, but thank you for that bit of information.
A mile wide tornado!!
Can you imagine?!
@@PlutoTheGod Actually not opening all of your doors and windows is far more likely to result in your roof being torn off, than doing so, because of the Air Pressure difference. With everything Open, your inside may be trashed, but the house would likely survive with its roof.

It was an indescribable scene, complete destruction all around for as far as you could see. I remember his father remarked how he'd hate to know what's at the bottom of those ponds. It wasn't long before they found out. Seeing those old broadcasts will probably never fail to send a chill up my spine. RIP to Will and all those who lost their lives on that nightmare day.
😢 rip.. man why are tornados so fucked up?
I live around Joplin but I was a baby when the tornado happened,
Side note when he said Joplin no I was like 😨they know where I am
Fellow Joplin native. Glad you're still here and I'm sorry you went through that. We walked around after and had to turn out emotions off to help so many get free or just find their lost family members. It was so scary.
Absolutely insane. I’m from Seneca and was in highschool at the time but remember going to help search for people that night and clean the following days and weeks. Looked like a nuke had gone off. Still remember the smell of gas in the air from lines leaking and the utter shock everyone was in walking around just lost. RIP Will and all others lost.
I was actually on a road trip cross country and ended up in Joplin the day after the tornado hit. We arrived at night so we couldn't see anything but when we got up to find food nearby, we were shocked that we didn't notice anything. We didn't have internet or live TV in the car so we literally had no idea what happened until we got there. It was insane.

From Joplin, MO. The tornado was horrible and my family lived 2 blocks from the pond where Will's body was found. My brother graduated that day, and it was weird knowing I was in the building that day that the graduation video showed. Everyone was just laughing and not caring when the sirens went off, we heard it all the time. The next 20 minutes going home were some of the darkest of my life. My brother was Will's friend, and it was horrible what actually took place. He was missing for days and kids kept hearing "Will is in Springfield hospital," or "he was life flighted to Kansas City." So many people co tinued thinking he was alive until ultimately his body was found - he'd been slammed into the pond and branches covering the bottom held him in place. He was absolutely trapped below and couldn't come to the surface. RIP Will, I hope your family is well
That’s horrible. Is everyone doing okay now?
My phone was supposed to move to Joplin in 2011. The house we were going to move into got decimated. Thankfully, my dad was away from work at the time because the hospital next to the place he worked got destroyed as well.

But what if it’s genuine. Kinda bold to assume that it’s fake or real. His description of everything and making it not entirely about him makes it believable. Plus his age depicted on his pfp very much suggests that he could’ve been a kid when this happened
The Joplin tornado was made significantly worse by the fact that it was “rain wrapped.” Tornadoes that drop into rain can be very dangerous because the rain makes the tornado hard to spot and sometimes invisible.
Thanks dude, I have always had the image of a giant looming cartoon tornado, but hearing they can be almost invisible is terrifying. I was wondering how the dad just saw the tornado when it was so close, but if it was rain wrapped it would make sense. I was not really paying that hard attention when the first vid of the kid showed, so I thought he was talking about surviving the last tornado :(
@@JohnSmith-kt3yyit’s even worse at night because you have the rain & it’s usually pitch black since the power is out all over.

The irony of this video is what hurts. Better Help takes advantage of people who are mentally ill and suffering. I’m a big fan of you Nick, have been for a long time, but you need to address this or at least stop having them as a sponsor. They are a disgusting company who have been doing similar scummy shit for years. This is not the first scandal they have had and I’m not at all surprised they’re abusing their power again.
Given his usual upload schedule, this sponsorship deal could have very well been made before everything came out if this video was planned right after part 4 was uploaded 4 months ago. If part 6 has the same sponsor, then it might be a problem, but usually once a sponsorship has been agreed upon the creator is obligated to complete the ad read for the agreed upon video when its scheduled to come out

@@liselotteline8596 There have been red flags raised for quite a while for the quality of the services and therapists in the network, but the actual FTC charges for the straight up illegal stuff didn't come up until early March this year, so it seems reasonable to view the service before that as a "Well, some people do get a good matchup with a therapist, and others don't, so your mileage may vary".

Better help doesn't require their therapists to be licensed, they have not changed and are still actively traumatizing desperate people. do not use better help.
I've been stating this for a long time now, they don't have legit therapists. They hire people to listen to your issues whose entire job is to record your conversations then sell it and your information to third party advertisers. It says so on their website. They're a scam but they scam people legally by posting all the info on their website.
For a lesser evil, their ad campaigns push a narrative that they're the only way to get affordable mental healthcare, when in reality there's tons of ways to get affordable mental healthcare - most providers have sliding scale payment plans based on your income, and for many of them they can work with you to be like even if you can only afford to come in once a month, they will work with you to get that once a month appointment. The place I go to is free with a lot of insurance providers (Including mine). Meanwhile I know one person said their ONE appointment on Better Help was like $600?? Even though that's significantly more than most other places charge.

To those of you not accustomed to tornadoes, do NOT remain in a vehicle when you see a twister. Vehicles and even mobile homes become airborne immediately (despite that stupid movie that had the pickup truck driving watching a cow fly by -- the exact opposite would happen). Drive the vehicle over a ditch or any low-lying area and get under it. You're better off lying flat on the ground than taking your chances inside what would be a projectile.
As a weather fanatic, that movie is called TWISTER, the tornadoes are not directly on top of the vehicle, mostly around it, but cannot blame you but it was a multi vortex. also i think cows are lighter than a 1995 dodge ram. (around 6,010 to 6,400 pounds) the movie rated it F-1, which is around 73-112 mph, most likely not enough to toss the truck, but blow it around a bit. (but I do agree with your comment good sir, being in a vehicle in tornadoes aren't safe at all.)
@@Strawblarriow that's a strong compliment calling him "GOD SIR" over his take on a tornado, but you are a weather fanatic so I trust your judgement
@@wyleFTW thanks i meant good lol
@@Strawblarri Many people do not take into account the aerodynamics of cows versus vehicles. It isn't about weight but how much air is going to be able to get UNDER it. Cows aren't entirely stupid, and when a massive storm is coming while they're pastured, they lie down. Try lifting that as opposed to a vehicle that has a good 15 inches of air space under its rather large wheel base. It isn't that cows don't end up blown into people's yards, but it's certainly a whole hell of a lot less common than ending up with a car, truck or mobile home landing there. And I have seen far too much of the latter first hand.
@@josi4251 I agree, its just that even with all that airspace, the winds for an F1 are too low to just pick up a car, more likely to push it or flip it, it is just a 1997 movie after all, so I don't think we should expect it to know how to portray weather greatly.

19:30 this story hits me the hardest, honestly, having grown up one state over to the east and in a town far more rural. tornadoes are a constant threat, to the point that yes, like the meme, many of us take it for granted and will just go outside and stare at the damn things. the town i grew up in sat in a bowl almost; my dad had once flown over it in a small plane with a friend and said it was like the town was in a crater. due to that, tornadoes would bounce off or disburse all together. i don't know if it's ever actually been hit with one before. didn't stop the terror and dread from coming when driving through neighboring towns and seeing the damages left behind. this story just reminds me of what could have so, so easily happened to us but thankfully never did. hits waaay too close to home.

Akmal Shaikh's story is so infuriating and heartbreaking. It demonstrates just how much more understanding and compassion is needed around mental illness, including awareness of how people like him are often taken advantage of. "Come Little Rabbit" may not be a musical masterpiece, but I can still deeply feel the wholesome intentions from his perspective. Although it was the basis of a severe delusion, it came from a good heart that genuinely wanted the world to be a better place. The Chinese government is absolutely monstrous for what they did to that innocent and vulnerable man who needed HELP, not lethal punishment.
Speaking of mental health support, I agree with others urging you to drop BetterHelp as a sponsor. I understand that you've luckily had a good personal experience with it, but there are serious fundamental problems with it that can and sometimes do lead to harmful results. I won't get into too much detail here, but if you look it up, you'll find a lot of information about it written by highly qualified people in the field.

@@michotito4874 same, like he had no instructions of where to go or what to do once he got there? they completely wasted a large amount of their own product, very strange
@@owouwu5555 there’s definitely more to the story. Either the trafficker was intended to meet him just without the risk of carrying it or he had instructions of who he was supposed to meet and where he was supposed to go and that was a cover story. If he flew alone and didn’t go where he was supposed to or had the plans changed on him if he was “tricked” youd at least expect a text or call from the friend telling him what to do next with the luggage. Also what doesn’t sit with me very well is this dude was possibly in support of terrorism, and outside a bad song which many people have recorded shitty songs in their lifetime there’s not much proof for him being seriously mentally ill. So he could have been tricked, but this also could have just been another business venture of his or even a form of trafficking for a terrorist cell as back in those days they were pretty much the main suppliers of heroin and they looked for supporters in foreign countries to carry out attacks and smuggling operations for them.
@@PlutoTheGod I mean, the constant changing of his entire life (moving, whole new career every few months) and him being so certain the song would bring world peace (an unreasonable belief) are pretty notable signs of mental illness or some kind of trouble - especially something like bipolar, and his family also said he had always struggled with mental illness, imo it's pretty clear he was mentally ill, but of course no one can really say for certain if he was never properly evaluated by a professional
