  • Today we're in Oklahoma City, OK to pay our respects to the victims of the 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing. In this video we'll see the beautiful Oklahoma City Memorial that is there today, as well as the original location of the Alfred P. Murrah building where it used to be. Join us as we tell the story and go back in time to that tragic morning in April 1995.
    The Oklahoma City bombing was a domestic terrorist truck bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States, on April 19, 1995, the second anniversary of the end to the Waco siege. The bombing was the deadliest act of terrorism in U.S. history until the September 11 attacks in 2001, and remains the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history.

    As you can tell I didn’t do much editing in this video. Due to the topic, I wanted to do it a little differently. I wanted you to feel like you’re there with me as we walk around and explore this memorial together. Some may think this video is boring since I don’t cut from clip to clip and that’s okay. This video is for those who want to feel like you’re there with me. Thanks for your support and RIP to the fallen here in OKC ❤

    I can remember seeing this on television. I was pregnant at the time with my second child. My first was a little over a year old. All I could do was cry. So devastating and heart breaking. What those families must of went through, I couldn’t even imagine. God bless. Very respectful video Nick

    Of all the domestic' attack, horrors in the last number of decades, this is about the only one that I have *never known anyone who visited, as infamous, and devastating as it remains. Thank you for bringing us there. I am old enough to remember where I was when I heard about it. My own child was only six, so like your Mom, the terror became even more real. Who would guess the number of similar tragedies that would follow, involving innocent people?😪 Thank you, Nick for your coverage. It was top-notch, and obviously, deeply felt. It does seem very quiet there, but that sort of atmosphere rather goes with the mood one must feel... Thanks, so much, Nick... a very hearfelt, deserving tribute. 🇺🇸 🙏🏻😔

    Baylee Almon turned a year old the day before the bombing. I have been to the memorial during the day and at night. It is a surreal place to visit. I also went on the tour of the museum. The ones on the west end are the people who died outside of the Murrah Building.

    The World Trade Center bombing two years before the OKC bombing in 1995 was classified as the largest terror attack up until the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. And, as we all know, six years later in 2001 was 9/11 and that officially became the biggest/largest attack.
    The picture at 4:17 is the rear of the building where it met the plaza, which is still there, but a lot of people have never seen the front of it. It was all glass.

    Despite being in the middle of a city with several hundred thousand people in it, this memorial is the most peaceful place I've ever personally experienced, especially after dark. Regardless, it's a lot to process the first time you visit -- and can be everytime you're there regardless of having been there before or not. I've gone quite a few times and anyone that's never visited should go see it if ever given the chance. There really are know words to accurately describe the experience.

    I remember that day very well as well as the total disbelief that such a thing could happen here in the USA. When it was revealed that Americans were responsible(all because of some imbecilic cult leader’s warped rationalization) the anger was tremendous. To all the innocent victims, their families and friends of a couple of misguided madmen, again my deepest sympathies and prayers.
