In real life or otherwise...

A few years ago I followed a link from Fark.com to some "Girls & Gore" type site which had random images and video clips. It was very much like stilemedia.com. Anyway, I clicked on a link for a video (thinking it was the Girls portion rather than the Gore), and was presented with something that has haunted me ever since. A summary is as follows:

NOTE: IT IS GROSS!!

The clip started focused on a man laying on the ground on his side. It's an obvious cam-corder with the time stamp in the corner and the whole Blair Witch Project feel to the video. The camera was zoomed in so all that was visible was the guy's head and shoulders against the grassy ground. There were words in Spanish back and forth, and the guy was talking. Then, all of a sudden someone steps on the guy's head wearning a black boot and a hand with some sort of k-bar knife comes into the screen and stabs the guy in the neck! The knife entered his throat behind the wind pipe and was forced forward, like opening a watermelon, and blood gushed out. The guy was slaughtered like a hog!

It all happened so fast that I wasn't able to hit the mouse or keyboard until I had seen too much. By then it was too late. The image was burned into my mind and still gives me the heebie-jeebies every once and a while. My only guess is that it was some sort of guerrilla or drug related execution. But whatever it was, it was in the category of images people (at least me) weren't meant to see (not unlike the tubgirl.jpg). The effects have been lessened over time, and I try not to think about it too much.

What about everyone else? Any particular image or event that is forever impressed on your mind? I'm sure the veterans on the boards have real life stories that are haunting.


Edit: I remember the language being Spanish, but it could've been something else. It's been a while.

O!! i saw that exact thing the other night. i was on WINMX, (similar to kazaa) and i was searching for "faces of death" and i came across this clip called, "slit throat". i was intested and so i thought i would check it out. this was a huge mistake. he was lying there and it loked like the knife went slowly into his throat. he was trying to scream but he couldnt. it was extreemly disturbing to see a man die, by a knife! i was horrified for a while and couldnt stop thinking about this. when i came across this thread, i was thinking that i would post my experiance. WOA, small world huh?

in real life -

I was at a Fishbone show at Knotts Berry Farm. The security freaked out when people started slamming. A bunch of cops showed up and started beating people up. It was surreal. I saw one guy who, moments earlier, was right beside me dancing. Next thing I know there are two security guys on him, each holding an arm. A police officer with a nightclub just started beating the tar out of him. He was totally defenseless, couldn't even pull his arms in to protect his face. I just ran away.

I was really disturbed by that. I kept thinking that it couldn't be real. At that moment, I really began to fear the police and, by extension, the government.

the worst thing i ever came across online was a picture of what looked like the carcass of a perosn who had been attacked by a bear. needless to say, i didn't view it for long.

The worst thing I was was someI downloaded on Kaza, it was a woman giving this guy a BJ while blind folded and then the next thing you know a gun comes into frame and blows her head off. It was and still is the sickest thing I have ever seen. The even sadder thing was it was labeled as something innocent, I think I was dl music vids at the time, and was mislabeled as something like that.... Yikes..takes all kinds I guess

I saw the video of the Pakistani guy sawing off the head of that Daniel Pearl reporter from the New York Times. Nasty stuff.

I have seen that clip too. But damn dude if you are searching faces of death what the fuck do you expect to see? That is like going to rotten.com and not expecting to see disturbing things. Most disturbing thing seen online.. probably tubgirl. Offline... well...

I mentioned this in another thread once but didn't go much into detail here is the story. My mom is a truck driver and I used to ride with her sometimes. One time we were going over a hill and about a mile ahead we saw a huge fireball. We slowly aproached it slowly. We saw what I at first thought was a semi in one ditch and a fireball on the other. Was not sure yet what the fireball was. Well as I noticed there was boxes all across the highway. The "semi" in the ditch was actully just a trailer. With the front of it ripped off. The fireball was the truck. We couldn't afford to stop. He was half way on the right hand lane and half way off the road. As we passed him we could feel the heat on my face. And I could see him inside the truck. All that was left of him as a skeleton at that point. Now remember this had happened no more then 2 minutes before we arrived but this was a fucking HUGE fire. And all I have to say is to all the people who believe violent video games and movie "desensitize" people FUCK YOU. I have played as many violent video game and seen as many violent movies as the next guy and this still haunts my dreams. It probably always will.

When I was a little kid in elementry school, I watched an IMAX movie on the Ring of Fire, and seeing a car drive off the edge of the Bay Bridge during an earthquake just stunned and shocked me more than anything. I remember it vividly... imagine driving along and all of a sudden there is no bridge! Oi.

No kidding. Like I said, I thought it was going to be something else. I don't remember the tag line or the the way the link was labeled, but it wasn't as obvious as "slit throat" or "faces of death".

Since then, I've stayed away from any site or links that don't spell things out. And all my nekkid women pictures come from the Titty Board, a place I can trust

when i was in high school i saw a classmate, who happened to be skateboarding infront of the school on his lunch hour, get majorly creamed by an on-coming car... i was standing less than 15 ft. from him when he was hit.

his body was pretty torn up... and he had some pretty serious head injuries -- he was convulsing, vomiting... you get the picture

it bothered me for a long time... i had seen many a "car accident" on television... but never "up close and personal" like that... his screaming, the look on his face... haunting still.

viveleroi0

when I saw the thread title, the FIRST image in my mind was that same video! I can't remember how I found my way to it, but when I saw that video i was absolutely HORRIFIED. As you said, by the time you see what happens it's too late. EVERYONE AVOID THAT CLIP. I have seen some gross things in my life, but that is BY FAR the most disgusting thing. I felt so cold and sick for hours after seeing that.

It wasn't real nasty, but my friend broke his arm riding his bike, it looked like he had 2 elbows. There was also this kickboxing match I saw on realtv this guy kicked the other guy and he shatered his leg, didn't realize it and tried to stand on it. it folded right over. I have thankfully never saw any "faces of death" or snuff videos.

Saw a news report on Afganistan where they showed multiple people being executed under the Taliban regime.

I've also had surgery and a procedure without anestetic. Not a pretty site either time.

If I remember correctly, that clip, the "slit throat", was either a Chechen(sp?)soldier being killed by a Russian soldier, or the other way around. There is a longer version of it out there, where you see the knife pull through the front of his throat and he is bled to death. The clip then continues to a guy talking, it looks like a hostage video. Suddenly the clip changes and you see the man being beheaded.

I stumbled across that thanks to my own foolishness. After the movie "8MM" came out, I did a search on one of my P2P's for "snuff" and wound up with that.

rogue49

I've told this one before...
Walked through the door into Pathology in the hospital I worked at with a sample for them.
And when I opened it...

There STARING me in the face, a baby.
It's arms straight out to each side, eyes WIDE open.
And it's back open to the world,
being autopsied.

I shut the door, as quick as possible, but the image burned into my brain.

Little girl hit by a train. Didn't look what was happening and just got clobbered, body folded up and flew into the camera. Poor kiddo.

Can someone, without posting a picture, tell me what Tubgirl is? I've seen Goatse (more times than anyone should) but have only heard Tubgirl thrown around.

Ran across a video of someone cutting off a guy's dick with a knife. Many times, these videos (including snuff porn) are faked, however this one was way too realistic. Won't go into the details, but it was very vivid and very close up. Some things can't be faked.

l_o_c

What is it? Just give me some sort of heads-up before I click on the link so I can brace myself.

teflonian

l_o_c... and whoever else is wondering about tubgirl: I just clicked on that link.... It is of a woman with projectile diarrhea. She is in the tub with her butt up in the air defecating on her own face... Hope that wasn't too detailed but I am sure it is better to read about what is happening rather than actually seeing it if you don't want to. I was actually relieved that it wasn't anything violent. I was expecting the worst but couldn't help but click on the link.

When I used to take the train to work, I saw some guy get hit by an oncoming train. It sure was disturbing. I felt sick the rest of the day. Needless to say I didn't get much work done that day.

Reading all these descriptions is grossing me out, especially the executions.

~springrain

too late... *cringe*... clicked on it before i scrolled down and read your post... *chuckle*... Murphy at play in my life as per usual...

certainly not the most disturbing thing i've seen in my life... but pretty much a stomach turner...

tub girl link followers beware...

Cynthetiq

being in Times Square on 9/11 and watching the video screens of people jump from the the Twin Towers and then finally watching them come down, knowing that my mother in law was across the street. Luckily she survived... she saw worse than I did...

many months later I went to a gallery of photos that were taken of 9/11 and I saw the bound severed hands. Chilling.

My friends and I go to rathergood.com a lot. So one day, we thought we'd see if there was a ratherbad.com. There was. We came across a picture that was supposed to be a mutalated corpse of a baby. It was probably fake, but very disturbing...
Also, seeing the movie "All Quiet on the Western Front" (original version) really freaked me out. I was about 13 and after it was over, I never looked at war the same way.

I downloaded some mislabeled porn clip that was basically a girl turning her ass to the camera, pulling her thong aside, and taking a big shit onto a plate. I stopped it right there, because I didn't like what was for dinner....

There is a lesson to be learned here: Don't trust Kazaa when dealing with ambigous file names or sizes. It just isn't worth it.

Probably the worst thing I've seen is the weird way the ground spins when you're falling from 40 feet up. It's just like in the movies. Next to that it would have to have been the second plane flying into the trade center.

krwlz

I didn't actually see this, but my father did. He was working for a construction company at one point, and they had those huge wood chippers...the ones that take anything you can lift to the mouth and blow it into little teeny tiny chips....Well his boss got hooked on something...he came out the discharge.....


My father said it was just red spray...nothing big enough to be called human parts..

SupahFreak

OH MY GOSH!!! As soon as I saw the name of this thread, this same video clip came to my mind. It gave me nightmares, I couldn't believe I had just watched someone be MURDERED!!!!

fhqwhgads

I saw that video too, and it seriously disturbed me...and I've seen some freakin' sick stuff.

One morning I responded to a domestic and found the woman sitting in the chair with a serious gash in her throat. She was unable to speak. I gloved up and put a towel on her throat. I was trying to hold the towel tight enough to slow the bleeding, but not so tight that I would strangle her. Apparently the victim's house was actually next door. When we went through her house to look for the suspect, we found smears of blood on the walls, pools on the floor, etc.

It didn't bother me at the time...it wasn't until the end of my shift when I was walking to my personal vehicle that I became sick...

BTW- She's fine, he's in jail...in case anyone was wondering.

Bubs

TUBGIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW


I'm scarred for life!

MacGnG

personnaly the most disturing things are the movies of the holocaust. i've been to poland and been to the camps (they are museums now) they are incredibly emotionally disturbing as well

note: the holocaust museum in D.C. , in my opinion does no justice at all, the one in Israel is much more profound (as well as a whole lot larger). i had gone to the one in DC second which is why i have this opinion, it is still a good Museum, but it really is only a museum.

Podmore

I've seen some pretty horrific videos, but it's a real-life one that haunts me, even though it wasn't as bad as many of the videos. I was on the archery field in college when a car came driving towards the area and smashed into the gate, and hill behind it, at a pretty good clip. I was the first one there, the teacher was second. The woman driver was drunk off her ass and had huge pieces of glass sticking out of her face and some smashed teeth. Lots of blood. She was flailing around and screaming. The teacher (a small woman) had me stay with the woman and try to keep her calm and still while she went for help. It was only ten minutes or so, but that's a horribly long time in the situation.

The woman had been wearing way too much of some kind of perfume. Every once in a while, a woman will walk by wearing the same one, and the incident will come instantly back to me.

I was about 12 when my brother and I were playing at a friends when suddenly the cops were all over the place next door.

The neighbor was holding his wife hostage and threatening to shoot her ass. As we watched through the windows in total amazement because of all the police, this guys comes flying out of the front door shooting a pistol and I have NEVER SEEN MORE guns go off atn a single time.

This guys body must have been hit with well over a hundred rounds, what I mean is whenever his body seemed like it was going to fall over more bullets would hit him and stand his ass up........UNFUKINREAL!!

For about 2 minutes all you heard was gunfire and his body was smoking 10 minutes after all the firing, or shall I say what was left of it.

To this day I have yet to find a film that can accurately re-enact what we saw that day in a gunfight on screen.

Shit.....it still gives me the willys thinking about it.
