ARCHIVES: Tom Brokaw Reports On Princess Diana's Death | NBC News
One of my earliest memories is my mom watching this and crying
Lol
I was just 13 when she died And even living in the States as a child I still remember how sad everyone was. I could only imagine the sadness in the UK during all that.
She was a very special person.
The UK was heart broken.
Queen of people's heart
I was born a few days before her death, so the news on my birthdays were normally focused on her. So I kinda knew who she was at a young age, but I think I was first really introduced to her when I asked my parents about the purple Beanie Baby with the rose they had in a box. They explained it was dedicated to a Princess who died just as I was born. I didn't understand why they would care about a Princess, because we lived in America. They always said, "She was the people's princess. Even though we weren't her subjects, she cared about everyone- regardless of nationality, race, religion, or way of life. She was a kind lady, and we will miss that kindness."
It's silly to say now, but because the end of her life and beginning of mine were so close, I felt connected to her in a way. I wanted to be like that kind princess, too.
😭😭😭😭😭😭🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧😭😭😭😭😭
I remember this horrible news. I had to tell my mother. I told her, "Mom, Princess Diana's dead'. My mom said, ' Oh my God'.
I told my own mother too. I said "Ma, Princess Diana's been killed," Her first question was "Princess Diana who?" because obviously, in her mind, it couldn't possibly be THE Diana, it had to be some other princess who happened to be named Diana, because she simply couldn't believe it. Once it sunk it that it was indeed Princess Diana she went into a type of shock and went "It can't be" over and over.
Mary Hlad 😂 Oh my god.
i woulve loved to write in her book. such a lovely person
To This Day I will Never Forget This Day
25 years without Princess Diana😰, August 31st, 1997
Rest In Peace Princess Diana❤️❤️
I was in Marine Corps basic training in San Diego. I read about the news in the September 7th, 1997 Sunday edition of the USA Today in the days that followed. I was absolutely shocked. I literally had just been in training for a week...August 24th, 1997...the Sunday before she, Henri Paul and Dodi El Fayed were killed. It made what I was going through feel a little bit heavier...like the world is going on and something as earth shattering as Princess Diana dying not being something I knew about for a week...it really made the isolation hit home.
I was in Second Grade soon to be 8 years old about a month when Princess Diana died and even living in Southside Clairmont Apartment in Birmingham, Alabama across the street to Avondale Elementary School as a Child I still remember how sad everyone was.
At least we Americans can rest in the fact that this would be the greatest tragedy to ever occur during the month of September.
Princess Diana actually died in August, not September. Early hours of Sunday August 31st 1997.
Diana passed away 8 months after my Mama. Thought I was young at 30 to lose my Mama; William and Harry were half my age....my ❤️ went out to them when I heard of Diana's death. I may be American, but I have always admired Diana.
Back when we could still respect the anchors on the nightly news. Sad times back then, she was a beautiful and kind woman.
Her sons are way grown now but imagine them getting the news that their mother was killed
Diana's death affected me far more than the Queen. Not sure why. Maybe it because Diana was the Princess and in her youth.
She also died in tragic circumstances whereas the Queen was 96. Another reason could be that the Queen was unemotional and aloof, whereas Princess Diana was very open and wore her heart on her sleeve.
@@danieloneill9560The Queen was 96 and was already frail.
Diana was in the peak of her life.
The Queen was 99 and yes Diana was young and had two children. I was trying to explain to some GenZers about how priness Diana's death was a much bigger deal. They couldn't compehend.
@@ktwashere5637 Many of them are now even looking at Diana with a critical eye. Like how she cheated and stuff.
Hard to believe if she were still alive today, she would have turned 58 years old
She would have been a wonderful grandmother to her 3 grandchildren.
@@evanshiong3557 4!
@@DONUTBUZZCUT five now 😄
Paul showed no evidence of being intoxicated according to witnesses that had direct contact with him that night. They said he was steady on his feet and wasn't slurring his words at all. I still say they made him the scapegoat. I seriously doubt Reese-Jones would have let Dodi and Diana get in that car if he thought Paul was drunk! There's more to all this than we will ever know.
I have met many friends who have been drinking so much alcohol during the night, you would think they would be slurring etc, but no, they acted perfectly. There is evidence of many examples of men, who were massive drinkers, but it never showed. British comedy actor James Beck was a massive drinker, but it never showed on the TV when he appeared as Walker in the comedy Dad's Army. He would go on drinking binges which could last days, especially with a few of his fellow stars of that sitcom. It all came to ahead in August 1973 when he suddenly fell into a coma, from pancreatic infection due to heavy drinking. Oscar Schindler, the famous man who saves the Jews from death was another massive drinker, who went on long drinking sessions with SS guards, but never ever appeared drunk. Some men's bodies work differently to others. It is a medical fact.
I think Tom Brokaw has a unique voice in him?
one of the greatest voices ever!
God knows what must've went through the British ambassador in France when he had to break the news to the royals..my dad was a police officer here (I'm Scottish) and he had to break the news to me about my sister being killed..turned up at my house with my mum..I'm like wtf? They were divorced and married other people..I knew straight away something was wrong..I was sitting with my youngest sleeping on my knees..my dad lifted him off me.snd handed him to my then partner..I'm sitting eyes darting about...wtf is going on? He then knelt down in front of me with my mum.and told me..I don't remember anything else after that time...but days and days it was.all over the news.i couldn't escape it..she left behind 2 little boys,ages 4 and , 7. I'm just thinking how do people break news like this..? Esp as a police officer having to tell your only surviving offspring they're sibling is dead..hard enough doing it as a policeman at the best of times..anyway..I've had so many health problems after the get and on meds for life now. Me and my mum had actually see her about an HR before it happened..she was visiting my mum's and I was there.. thsts what made it hard to take in..I'd just seen her.so this was late on at night .they came up...they had to go identify her and let her ex husband know what had happened because he was frantic when she never turned up for the kids..they were at their dads that weekend..it was mother's Day she died and her 27th bday.they were waiting at he train station with cards and flowers..and she never showed. My dad died a couple yes later aged 47..heart attack..he was horrifically affected..
I realized a year or so ago, she has been gone longer now than the world had her. Such a tragic waste.
No, she was 36 when she died and that was in 1997. It’s almost 22 years since she died not 36.
She was famous for only 16 years, she’s been gone 22.
A long time. But some of ago. For some of us it seems like only yesterday.
My favorite newsanchor Tom Brokaw
this was huge, but wait till her Majesty passes, it will be like nothing you have seen.we even have 12 days of morning,
"mourning"
You people are still stupid enough to have a fake King and Queen
@@sychophantt I guess it is preferable to having a "real" King, like the Saudis.
Well, yes, but the difference is that we are expecting the Queen to die. (I know she's in good health and all that, but she is 92 and it is unlikely in simple arithmetic that she will live for much longer.) Diana was only 36 and had her whole life ahead of her
@@sychophantt not really fake, just downgraded from what it was 300 years ago
Labor Day 1997 was the Season Premiere of Wheel of Fortune 15th Season (1997-98), and Jeopardy Season 14 (1997-98).
What a great presenter..
Make it sadder with this music.
I remember being asleep and mom came in and told me she died.
"Where Churchill was eulogised" His funeral took place in St. Paul's cathedral.
Winston Churchill's coffin was placed in the historic Westminster Hall, not far from the abbey in the days preceding his state funeral. During that time, special services was held in the abbey, where he was eulogised by the Dean of Westminster Abbey. So, technically this was true Paul.
MI-5 killed her not some photographers
Happy Birthday you beautiful rebel.
The moral of the story is don't drink, don't speed, and do wear your seat belt.
The debut of Disney's One Saturday Morning won't debut this Saturday it will be Postponed in One Week.

She's holding Kanye West at 0:24
It's not breaking news as the title suggests.
We ask governments in all countries to unite the bridge pillars as high as one or two meters so that if a car hits a bridge support, it can still slide not as badly as a car crashes into a bridge pillar so that an accident hitting a pillar like what happened to Prince Harry's mother does not happen again, sorry and thank you
last time people mourned this much was twice before. princess Charlotte in the 19th century and queen Elizabeth the first. years of mourning for these 3 royal women.
What is considered legally drunk in France?
Does anyone know what the piece at the beginning is?
@Rafael Henry I think Pachebel’s Canon in D Major, could you check so that I’m not going deaf lol
@Rafael Henry Pachebel’s Canon in D
It’s the Intermezzo from Pietro Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana.
#FLOTUS should have taken Diana as an example instead of the nouveau riche.
She was 36
Who came here after anonymous tweets?
I was the paparazzi on the motorcycle
People’s princess
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
She was murdered. That's it!!!
Did NBC Nightly News did a report on the deaths of animators Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera?
Before Farage Brexit and Division. A sad time but we were united then. Will The Basket of Deplorables ever let us unite again.
Christopher Hitchens said it best when comparing the Princess and land mines, "They're both easy to lay and hard to get rid of."
Yes very good but ironically, there's no way Hitchens was laying her.
God bless Trump
Prince Charles is behind it. " common sense"
Prince Charles was not behind it. In fact he and Diana actually had a far better relationship when they were divorced, even Diana admitted it to her closest friends. Charles and her felt much relaxed when they were divorced. You only have to look at the devastated look on Prince Charles face to see this was a shock to him. You really think he would organise the murder of the mother of his two sons, and then tell them she died in an accident whilst on holiday in Balmoral? If you do, you do not have any understanding of humanity.
@@johnking5174 the royal family has a number of trolls on social media too, I’d imagine. John ‘King’ betrays your loyalties.
@johnking5174
Chuckie isn't human. Diana was murdered.
