🇬🇧BRIT Reacts To THE CRAZIEST MOMENTS IN SPORTS HISTORY!

[@dionnemosier3324]

I'm pretty sure that the "emergency" during that World Series baseball game was the big earthquake that collapsed the Bay Bridge during the 1989 World Series.

[@ryanleaf386]

^ pretty sure he said earthquake but it got cut off

[@Maelus927]

Yeah it sounded like he was saying earthquake when it got cut iff

[@dripcaraybbx]

Yes that was the earthquake

[@hollyjoann]

Yes, famous footage of the 1989 World Series earthquake. It did quite a bit of damage. Part of the Bay Bridge collapsed.

[@gordontriggs6427]

I was watching that game in 1989, a powerful earthquake happened early in the game. It was crazy!

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

At 6:57, game 3 of the 1989 World Series was interrupted by the Loma Prieta earthquake. It was a very big quake, measuring between 6.9 and 7.1 on the Richter Scale. The game was at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, which is where the Giants played before they moved to Oracle Park (where they play now). The other team was the Oakland A's, so both teams were from the Bay Area. It happened at 5:04 p.m., about half an hour before game time. The quake knocked out power and communications for miles around. Sixty-three people died as a result, although none of the deaths were at Candlestick. Candlestick Park had been reinforced for earthquake safety a few years prior to the quake, which probably saved lives. The ballpark passed a safety inspection and the Series was resumed there ten days later.

[@Armedredux]

People as far in as Sacramento felt that one that day.

[@viviandarkbloom100]

I remember settling in to watch Game 3 with my Dad. It was Pre Game with Al Michaels when the Earthquake hit. The rest of the night was watching these harrowing scenes especially that double decker Freeway that collapsed.

[@Armedredux]

@@viviandarkbloom100 A year later and that Freeway hadn't been fixed. I remember my dad and I driving next to it on the way to an A's game.

[@danielstucky3794]

That was awful. I was at a friend's house when it started shaking.

[@carladams5891]

I was at a mall video game kiosk (remember those?)! We lived in Novato at the time and when we got home, our floor speakers had moved about 3 feet away from the wall. Our dogs were freaked out!! I remember it collapsed a section of the bay bridge!

[@pjb3583]

Since others have explained the massive earthquake, I will offer a fun fact on the basketball clip. I worked at a University that hosted part of the NCAA tournament multiple times (March Madness), and part of the arena’s extensive set of requirements was numerous replacement baskets and backboards as well as contingency plans to replace them quickly, just In case. Peace from Ohio …

[@rp3569]

What happened in that baseball clip was that there was an earthquake going on not only that, it was in the World Series

[@Hessen84]

And it was a really bad one.

[@momclg]

When he 1st came to the nba 1992 he was about 285lbs, later years when he played with Kobe he was 395lbs, and Kobe told him to get into shape. Now he’s about 324lbs

[@latin725]

It's an earthquake happened during the World Series Kabir in California I remember that game.

[@jamesfarr5754]

If you were wondering, the clip where there was an explosion on the field, the guy announcing the game was legendary dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully. He started announcing their games back in 1950 and was with them till 2016. He passed away not too long ago.

[@viviandarkbloom100]

1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake. 6.9. It was a big one. Really amazing only 60 people died.

[@evemiller2637]

There was a massive earthquake during the World Series in San Francisco. Baseball players were helping fans out of the stands down on to the field. The quake was so big it was felt all the way in Modesto.

[@TroysPop]

The World Series clip was of an earthquake in the Bay Area in 1989. The quake was so strong that I could feel it in my office, which was in an office high rise in downtown Los Angeles. I don't remember the bomb incident at the Seahawks/Saints game, but that took place in the Kingdome in Seattle. All I can say about that is that many sticks of dynamite were used some time later to implode the Kingdome and build the Seahawks a new stadium, now called Lumen Field, I believe. I preferred the prior name, CenturyLink Field, aka "The Clink."

[@timhefty504]

Funniest thing I remember was at a high school soccer game, the anthem was about to be played but the PA guy picked Cascada's "Every Time We Touch" by mistake

[@ashleymeggan]

I saw a video of a hs that did something similar recently!

[@janice221]

It was a massive earthquake during the 1989 World Series. I was watching that day, there were 63 deaths, freeways and bridges collasped due to the magnitude of it.

[@SUPRAMIKE18]

Your reaction to the plane is possibly one of the greatest things I've ever seen XD

[@grahamkight9111]

That one game where the camera turned off was an earthquake.

[@johanna0131]

I remember that massive earthquake during the World Series. It was so horrible. My good friend lost someone in the collapse of buildings in downtown Santa Cruz. I remember that section of the Bay Bridge collapsing.

[@pitdoctor]

The clip after the earthquake was in the Kingdome in Seattle. The stadium was a concrete dome multipurpose stadium that was home to both the Seahawks in the NFL and Mariners in MLB. It would also host NCAA basketball championship games, Soccer matches (it was the home stadium for a time of the original Seattle Sounders and the first sporting event in the Kingdome was the Sounders vs NY Cosmos with Pele on the team) But it would also host boat shows and RV shows and monster truck shows and motorcross races. It would get absurdly loud inside that stadium. Years later I was in the stadium for a Mariners game when someone set off a really large firecracker style explosive....damn that was painfully loud in that craphole of a building.

[@VorchaKali]

That was the BATTLE OF THE BAY WORLD SERIES. THE quake of 1989 and i was there.

[@hifijohn]

Johnson has to be only pitcher to throw a "fowl" ball!!

[@ihatebofa6]

Fowl

[@steveyork8069]

It was the Lima Prieta earthquake that happened during the World Series it was a6.9 on the rictor scale killing 67 people and causing $6 billion in damages

[@jeffrichards1537]

The clip from San Francisco when they lost video was due to an earthquake the destroyed the interstate and left cracks in stadium.

[@Seven50ml]

The odds of that pitch hitting that bird are astronomical

[@katharrell3737]

I'm often times not sure which is more entertaining, the videos or your reaction to them. Kind of a coin toss on this one, love your reactions!!

[@kabirconsiders]

You're too kind Kat :)

[@lesaahrenstein6360]

The game between Sanford and cal Will forever go down in history for "the play." There's actually an interview with the band member that The player ran into. You can find it somewhere On KZbin. And as people said it was an earthquake. You even heard the announcer mention it when it started he said " it feels like an earth... but it never finished the rest of the sentence.

[@dianawilliams525]

Yeah that was quite a quake. I was 50 miles north and my house swayed from side to side. My father was at Candlestick Park and it took him hours and hours to get back. The night before I had just returned from a European vacation and I was so grateful that I didn't miss any of the connections because I would have been trapped in S.F. for sure.

[@Dannyedelman4231]

6:57 the Announcers were trying to say we are having an earthquake which happened to be a 6.9 rickter scale quake

[@jeffburdick869]

13:24 the guy who parachuted into the boxing match was known as The Fan Man. His real name was James Miller. He also did it in the UK including at one of your club's matches. He buzzed an Arsenal-Bolton Wanderers match in the FA cup in Bolton in 1994. He was deported. But then went back to the UK and landed on top of Buckingham Palace, where he was arrested, deported, and banned from coming to the UK for life.

[@jeffburdick869]

7:15 an Earthquake occurred in Northern California during the World Series. And it just so happened that both teams in the World Series are from Northern California. I can't imagine what the odds of that are, but it was insane. I was a little little kid when it happened, but I remember my dad and older brother talking about it. It was a fairly severe earthquake too...a ton of property damage and sadly some people lost their lives.

[@robertschwartz4810]

The clip where the baseball obliterates the bird- - - I think that's how My Pillow first got started! (I may be mistaken).

[@ITSHProductions]

7:10 the announcer said, "you know what, we're having an Earth..." It was in California... they were having an earthquake

[@carladams5891]

At 6:59 that was the Loma Prieta earthquake. You should definitely do a reaction video to that one!!

[@jeffrichards1537]

Thank God you showed my favorite wtf sports moment. Randy Johnson hitting to bird with a pitch. Poor bird lol.

[@brianrigsby7900]

3:36 good thing that was a Cessna and not a Boeing!

[@willardwooten9582]

Randy Johnson is 6'10" and can throw 100+ mph. Randy was my favorite pitcher while in Seattle . You ought to check the aftermath of the Earthquake during the World Series.

[@Posirep]

and his Photography Company logo is a dead dove.

[@ruthdeckman9781]

@Matthew Harrup it's a reaction video. Of course there's going to be pauses.

[@Stepperg1]

I was watching that game in Oakland from my home. It was the Loma Prieta earthquake in San Francisco. I wish I had a link but I do know it's on KZbin. It tore the Stadium up and was a horror for San Francisco. That should have been explained hete.

[@elainablake3030]

I saw a clip of a soccer field that was wet, lightning struck and everyone that was on the ground dropped at the same time. They all got electrocuted. Everyone was ok.

[@robtintelnot9107]

I remember every second of that earthquake. I was getting ready for football practice and had to run out of the house half naked.

[@yg713]

Please note the wit of the person in charge of putting up the ambiance music at the basketball game. As they are showing the replays for the broken backboard/net, Annie Lennox's "Walking On Broken Glass" was playing in the background.

[@ESUSAMEX]

He did not say emergency. He said I think we are having an earthquake. It was one of the worst earthquakes ever in the US. There is a video on the whole incident on KZbin. Check it out.

[@davidthieman8020]

In the baseball game in Oakland, there was a big earthquart hit at the start of the World Series with San Francisco VS Oakland in Oakland across the bay.

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

The game was at Candlestick Park in San Francisco, not in Oakland.

[@TheCosmicGenius]

Yeah, at 6.59 in the video - earthquake, the great San Francisco quake of '89.

[@TheGLORY13]

There is an entire video worth watching on the "Earthquake Series" it was a pretty massive quake.

[@jasongoodman3495]

That was an earthquake during the world series

[@Tommychocolates]

In the baseball game it was the World Series on there was a earthquake

[@kenadams4319]

Also being a diehard CAL fan born and raised in Berkeley, the “Big Play” during the “Big Game,” is another all time favorite/classic. GO BEARS!

[@SilvanaDil]

Was watching that game in SF. Never again, touch wood. Nothing is more scary than a big earthquake.

[@kenadams4319]

Great ESPN 30 for 30 episode on it is “The Day The Series Stopped.” Great documentary. I was 6 years old, across the Bay in Berkeley and our lawn was actually rolling like waves. Crazy times.

[@branplore]

The camera cutoff was the exact moment a big earthquake hit San Francisco in 1989 Magnitude: 6.9 Mw 7.2 MS during the world series baseball game

[@lewis9702]

11:47 - The reason the band was on the field was because the band conducter thought the play was over and that Stanford (the team in White) had won. It was the last play of the game, and if Stanford had won, their marching band would've come out onto the field to help celebrate. However the play continued and the band couldn't get out of the way. Needless to say the band members were very unpopular on the Stanford campus as they were blamed for their teams loss. To make matters worse, the loss came against University of California which is Stanfords biggest rival. To this day Stanford refuses to recognize California's victory.

[@awezman]

At the time, Stanfords marching band was stuedent lead with no oversight. They were know to party like crazy and seems like they are student led so they can wreck havoc without accountability. They have been banned multiple times from games because they are so rowdy.

[@Thediydog]

The players tried to take the field, but the marching band refused to yield...

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

That was one of the biggest earthquakes we’ve had in a long time here in the lower 48 of the USA. 😔🐝❤️

[@Bjwuv]

I remember my grandad being super upset that something interrupted his baseball game 😆

[@victorbellutta2059]

Pretty sure that was an Earthquake during the World Series

[@mikealioto6228]

1989 earthquake destroyed a lot of building in San Francisco. One of the worst earthquakes that hit USa

[@danielstucky3794]

The World Series with the A's and Giants, we had a 7.1 or 7.2 earthquake. Part of the Bay Bridge collapsed, and a bunch of the old houses and buildings fell off of their foundations and burned. Some of the freeway's collapsed and killed several people. I was at my friends house and it started shaking like crazy. I was sitting in front of the picture window,which is a major no,no.But it didn't shatter. I couldn't move, and just sat there. My mom called and told me to get home. We didn't have any damage, but my mom and dad did have to catch the grandfather clock before it hit the floor. Some folk's had said that you could physically see the ground buckling. It was weird as hell. My mom gets sick every time she see's the video of someone falling off of the collapsed part of the bridge and hitting the section that fell down. Look up the '89 Bay Area earthquake. There should be a bunch of videos on it.

[@upnorth1807]

I live in Minnesota where the “Dome” was located and remember that day. The snow weight was around, I think 190 lbs per sq yard. If any other Minnesotans watch this channel, please correct me. But the snow was well over what the roof could hold and broke it.

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

It was a Teflon fabric roof that was held up by air pressure. I think the idea was that snow was supposed to slide off instead of stick to the roof. For some reason it didn't happen in this case. A conventional roof wouldn't have collapsed from that amount of snow.

[@fazekame5398]

age of dome was also an effect probably

[@kjellanderson]

Hell yeah, Minnesotan brother

[@jeffburdick869]

I was born and raised in a city that has a domed stadium and gets an insane amount of snow. Ahead of big snow storms, they crank the heat wayyyyyy up so that its over 100F in the stadium with the intent of the snow melting quickly after it lands on the roof and will drain off in their drainage system.

[@controlZchannel]

Amazing to make such clips with no context. That was the 1989 San Francisco earthquake.

[@krisschobelock4973]

He said EARTHQUAKE not emergency....That's San Francisco for ya . . .

[@brianrigsby7900]

2:57 looks like cgi!! Wow!!!🤯

[@ulisesurbina7184]

It was an earthquake during the World Series, Jose Canseco, ran to the middle of the field, which if you stop and think about is the safest place; right behind 2nd base and the centerfielder. I remember that game because I felt that earthquake also.

[@williamjordan5554]

12:35. That was the tallest pitcher in the league known for throwing hard. The bird chose the wrong pitcher to fuck with.

[@awezman]

The Stanford Marching Band was at that time (and possibly still) is the only college marching band that is run by students with no oversight from faculty. They are know to be crazy partiers(go figure). After the game they were suspended from games for a number of years. After the ban was lifted they resumed with no faculty in charge of them and i think they were banned again at some point. There is a documentary on youtube about them, may be worth checking out.

[@grendalnewgod]

The guy in the parachute was pummeled by spectators. Police were trying to protect him from the crowd.

[@joannegaughan6132]

[@hifijohn]

The plane crash was probably alaska,the towns there are so isolated its normal for people to use small planes, this one had some type of engine trouble and just was looking for an open field to land.

[@hardtackbeans9790]

3:13 The 'inflatadomes' were ill conceived for the technology of the time. The material just didn't hold up as was promised. Some of the people that designed them were accused of very optimistic life spans. They probably just didn't know & tried to rush cutting edge concepts to market. It wasn't just stadiums either. Some civic centers & other large spans had such a roof put in. I think some are still standing but not many. 7:35 He said 'We're having an Earthquake' as in 1989 Loma Prieta. A sizable earthquake. Many structures were damaged some that should have been much more quake resistant but failed much earlier. You have seen the pictures of upper deck freeways collapsing on the lower deck. I think more than 50 were killed in crushed cars in that one event. It was a strong earthquake but shouldn't have cause all the death & destruction it did. There was one fire that started I think they call it the 'marina district' that almost got out of hand. The modern infrastructure was expected to weather an earthquake much better than in 1906. It did do better but not nearly as good as they were expecting in a lesser earthquake. There was no water in some areas to fight fires. Google or KZbin search '1989 Loma Prieta earthquake' for much more.

Also had a single engine plane crash in a backyard 2 blocks away. Went over my house and slammed into a tree. The guy did not make it but he saved dozens of lives by dropping his fuel before crashing. If he hadnt dumped his fuel it wouldve been an explosion in the middle of a neighborhood w kids everywhere. They found pieces of the pilot scattered around the block.
