  I was saying holy fuck because this was how I found out and I’ll skip watching the video because I’ve seen enough live leak from like 2008 to 2016 to satisfy any grotesque need for me to see somebody getting murdered for the rest of my life.

    I watched it ten times and I’ll probably watch it another 10 later tonight while sipping a nice Merlot.

      Yehhhh I have no idea how peeps are so fucked up by the vid, as a frequenter of eyeblech and nsfl__ when they existed. This is a breath of fresh air (blood?) in a world of horrible things happening to people who don’t deserve it

        I wont lie, I watched the Saddam Hussein video like 2 years after the execution happened.

        I’m a true-blue-center-of-the-generation millenial, who grew up on the internet (but avoided places like somethingawful) and I got squeamish over THAT video.

        It was legit just a shot of his feet swinging but my brain just went “Thats not fake, not a movie, thats an actual human being”, and I got mad uncomfortable.

        So, I feel zero percent sadness over CKs death (in fact legit delight! I’m currently out having drinks over it!) But I cannot fathom actually watching the moment a human being’s life flickers out.

        I aint built for that.

    It was pretty mild compared to the shit you might’ve seen on LiveLeak tbh.

    I remember seeing a video called “unnecessarily slow beheading” there. After that, uh, seeing a stranger get shot just seems so mundane. It’s fucked.

  It was unexpected, I’ll give it that. If I saw it on a movie, i’d have called it fake :)

      Many years ago when Faces of Death was still a hot thing and I was young, and the internet was ripe for the picking for such things… A number, more than a couple. First hand in real life two, but no shots to the neck.

      It seemed low on the outside to catch an artery, obviously it did because you would have had that kind of flow without it.

      Honestly, come a lot of the gruesome and horrible crap out there looks kind of tame compared to this. It’s one of the things that surprised me back in the 90s, I was expecting everything to kind of look like this.

        Faces of death were mostly fake pal.
