GEOGUESSR - FAMOUS US CRIME SCENES | BRITISH FAMILY

[@HistoryNerd808]

For y'all wondering, the murder of Emmett Till is a hugely consequential moment in Civil Rights history. He was a black teenager(I think he was 14) who was kidnapped and lynched in 1954 after an accusation that he had whistled at a white women in a grocery store in Mississippi. His murderers were acquitted of the crime and then confessed to it after the fact(when they could not be charged.) His brutal murder woke up a lot of people to the reality of Jim Crow in the South and was one of the events that kicked off the Civil Rights Movement.

[@johnappleseed8146]

he was a little more than lynched, he was disfigured, dismembered it was truly monstrous

[@bcbritt777]

It was 1955

Number one OJ's house, number two was Emmett Till, number three was self-evident, number four was the Tate/Polanski house from the Manson Murders (that one is a famous address "the Cielo Drive murders"), and the last one was the Oklahoma City Bombing, as you figured out.

[@SilvanaDil]

Quite famous grouping: OJ, Emmett Till (victim), Columbine, Manson, Timothy McVeigh.

[@beccaRey]

I think you did ok considering how difficult some of these were. Whoever puts these together really should provide an explanation of what happened after the location is revealed.

[@JMcKey21]

From OKC here. I was so excited when you saw the police car and said Oklahoma City! What your seeing is the Oklahoma Memorial Marathon commemorating the OKC Federal building bombing.

Nicole Brown Simpson lived in a condominium on Bundy Drive, she and Ronald Goldman were murdered on the front porch and walkway. The second was the Emmett Till murder scene. Till's horrific murder in 1955 was instrumental in the start of the Civil Rights marches in the 50's and 60's. There is a recent movie called "Till" about his murder. Columbine High School is in Littleton, Colorado. Cielo Drive was the location of the home of actress Sharon Tate and her friends murders by Charles Manson's followers.

[@SilvanaDil]

The movie "Till" is now out of theaters and available for home viewing.

South Dakota is considered the center of the United States, making Michigan part of the Midwest the reason why is because of Alaska in Hawaii that’s why South Dakota is the center of the United States and Michigan is part of the Midwest

[@Anibonita2000]

If you don't know about Emmitt Till, or these other famous crimes, I think you should look into them. To add on to what someone below said about Emmitt Till, his murder was so gruesome that his mother insisted on a an open casket for the world to see what they did to her baby. And yes, it was a huge moment in Civil Rights History.

[@garygramling5618]

I kept thinking that might have been where the Manson family killed Sharon Tate. So glad the comments here cleared it up. You're not alone with the Boston Marathon scene Daz--exactly where my mind went with that banner

[@ethanpost9774]

Is the one with the nice houses on the hill around 14mins the Manson killings?

[@ryanjustice2670]

@@ethanpost9774 Yes.

[@kevinprzy4539]

I wish this game would give an answer as to what happened there after you guessed.

[@EMD1028]

Just gotta Google the street name and what crime was associated with it for an answer.

[@kevinprzy4539]

@@EMD1028 I'm saying for them, so they can find out during the reaction after they've guessed.

[@EMD1028]

@@kevinprzy4539 oh I understand and I share sentiment. At same time it would be impossible for Google earth or Google maps to put an event that happened at a certain location. What would be nice is if the person who created the map could edit something in. My apologies if I came of across in a negative way. I can assure you it was not my intention. 👍🏼

[@strider9184]

@@EMD1028 I think that’s what he meant: would be good if the person who created the map was given an option to leave a note at the end after they guess or something

[@EMD1028]

@@strider9184 I understand that but many people read descriptions before watching videos and then what would be the point of playing when you already know?

You did very well, considering the degree of difficulty. These are fun to watch. Usually best to go with your gut. Columbine, Colorado is the perfect example. Columbine's location is well known to most Americans, but impressive that people from England would be able to pinpoint it.

[@jwes869]

Yes. The Bundy drive one was OJ.

[@luluo315]

I knew three of them - Columbine, Cielo Drive (Manson murders) and Oklahoma City. I recognized the one from OK City because I visited the memorial years ago. I was yelling at the television for the three I knew lol!

[@controlZchannel]

Common sense says look at the police car. The name of the school isn't necessarily the name of the town.

[@beckys2825]

Not me sitting here squealing for you to look at the police car just a little bit closer.

[@bobzyurunkel]

The second one in LA was the Tate murders.

[@Kjetilstorm]

I was thinking the 14:00 minute one might be Phil Spector.

[@starparodier91]

Gotta skip this one just from the thumbnail. I was just about eight when it happened and my school was nearby. Sadly it wasn’t the last time I’d be near these tragedies in my state. Sure it’s a great video! 💜

[@EMD1028]

Sorry to hear. Would be nice to support them and just skip the portion that is gonna affect you. But its understandable that it could break you down. I use situations where I was affected negatively like 9/11 to make me stronger but respect.

[@starparodier91]

@@EMD1028 I’m actually doing that! I had the same idea after I posted it. 😊

@@starparodier91 that's awesome! Much respect to you! Makes my heart happy to hear that!

@@EMD1028 Sadly I’ve dealt with these tragedies every few years ever since 1999 and I just lost one of my friends, Derrick Rump, in November at a nightclub in Colorado Springs. But I want to support the channel and stay positive. 😊

[@EMD1028]

@@starparodier91 just keep your head up! Always remember that many have not gone what you have gone through but some have as well and giving up is not an option. It's ok to face our fears head on sometimes. Trust me when I say it makes us stronger. Having a certain event control our life take away from enjoying life. Yes it sucks but it gets better. Stay safe 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

i believe oj lives in florida now since he was released from prison

[@80HD8]

I agree that they should tell you what the crime was.

What's William Shatner been up to this time?

He is struggling

I'm sorry but geo guesser (which isn't a word) is a dumbass game. you don't learn anything but maybe a crime happened in this region...

[@kevinwagoner9488]

Geography is learned. Plus what does anyone learn from Super Mario?

[@babykittenkisses2625]

@@kevinwagoner9488 barely, let's look for signs instead of landmarks. it's a dumb game. also I never mentioned any other games, never implied Mario taught anything. although Mario does make your hand-eye coordination better.

[@chrissears5482]

Only people new to the game base everything on signs. Watch a professional geography person play it. They can tell by the infrastructure, where the sun is in the sky, if there are any mountains or coast around, and then they use the signs to find out exactly the spot it's in
