I Watch The Worst Death Story On The Internet

[@pressplayulysses]

The most common trend in these death stories was someone being negligent. Basically failing at that ONE job they're supposed to do.

[@Goober025]

Back when I was working at a movie theater. An older woman approached me asking if I had seen her husband. Her husband had dementia and was missing. Lucky the theater was small, about 16 auditoriums, so we found him fairly quickly. It could have gone really bad really fast. If you have a family member with dementia keep a close eye on them and if you're the one developing dementia don't be embarrassed for needing assistance.

[@Laurakeet101]

Agreed! You should always keep an eye on your loved ones who are developing dementia. I’ve also had a very similar experience. When I was working at a movie theatre (which was in a Westfield centre like the story in the video) a lady came out and asked us if we had seen her father. We all collectively started searching with the woman and it got to the point where I went down with her to Westfield centre security as we couldn’t find him in the cinema itself. Unfortunately I couldn’t do much after that because I was still on shift but I really hope they did find him.

Man Alzheimer's and dementia is genuinely one of the scariest things to me. If I'm going to die, I want to go out while I'm still myself you know?

[@-desertpackrat]

38:25 that person in the chat saying he clipped into the backrooms, damn that's basically what happened. Like if you were losing your memory and cognition,a nd you walked into the literal back hallways and rooms of any large facility, and were left alone in your confused state, you would just think you were in "the backrooms" or whatever similar purgutory you've heard of in media and mythos. It would be horrifying, you wouldn't be able to say "oh you know, I freaking got locked in somewhere, I just need to find a door and bang on it, or break something to get people to come looking in here" but no, you're bewildered and you literally think you're in some purgutory or something and you just sit down in confusion like "wow there really is no exit to this place". Also I want to mention it's unnerving how many places lock doors from the wrong side. It's supposed to be locked from the patron's side, not from the off-limits side. I went to a health center with counseling and medical services where they had the door from the waiting room locked from the back hall but not from the waiting room, so anyone can walk through the door from the waiting room, but to leave the area where appointments and meetings were, you had to wait for someone with a key card. So if someone was being threatening or on drugs, they could storm into the back offices and get to staff and patients who are supposed to be in a safe, private office, but if you had to flee them you are then locked in a narrow hallway with them unless someone outside lets you out. It was so weird, in the two adjacent buildings of the same facility, the doors to the offices were locked from the outside like normal but you could just open them from inside without staff letting you out. They refused to fix that lock the entire 4 or 5 years they operated there. It's a legitimate security and safety issue.

[@paraphenaliac4657]

If you have dementia so bad you can't use basic motor and problem solving skills you aren't going to be able to recall an internet phenomenon that happened a life time ago

[@-desertpackrat]

My grandpa had some dementia setting in in his last years, he actually seemed to keep it at bay by doing a lot of engaging activities to keep his brain healthy. He did puzzles all day like sudoku, crosswords and word scrambles, and played board games, and he took walks every day even though his physical health was also very bad and it was hard to walk. If my step-grandma couldn't walk with him she asked a neighbor to walk with him. When he did finally die it was mostly from physically so many issues he'd had shutting his body down, but his mind was still there enough to be aware in the end and talk to his loved ones. If you or anyone you love is struggling with dementia symptoms or any memory type symptoms, help them do some healthy and engaging activities, it really helps them fight it. Don't let them get bored or lonely because it can make it so much worse. Engagement of hobbies and activities literally heals our brain, even if just by little bits. Every bit matters..

[@hieithefox]

The mall design is so stupid beyond a guest getting locked in like imagine a worker or workers in there during a fire

[@MageMelonVT]

So I looked up the second story. Apparently a big contributing factor was the fact that after Estonia left the USSR, they lost most (if not all) resources on dealing with nuclear waste. They just had to wing it, for the most part, based on guidelines set by the Soviet Union in the 50s. The country didn't actually use nuclear power at all at the time. They only had small amounts of waste from things like research and medical equipment. They also had a lot of other things to worry about at the time, being a new nation. It wasn't until after this incident that they started to take handling the nuclear waste disposal more seriously. MrBallen's description of the events diverge quite dramatically from the official report by the International Atomic Energy Agency. According to the official report, the solid waste and the liquid waste were stored in different sections. They first took the radioactive metal from a container they found. Then they moved to the liquid storage. There was no empty drum they found as MrBallen describes. The brothers actually emptied to contents of several barrels all over the floor. During this process is when the one brother got his leg injured. They actually did end up selling these drums as scrap metal. I also don't see, in the report, that the dog slept on the jacket with the radioactive source in it. It seems more like the entire family was in close proximity of it at all times, as it was located inside a kitchen drawer (not a toolbox), and the dog mostly stayed in the kitchen. The stepson did come into contact with it while getting tools to repair his bike from the drawer, however. how the source got to the kitchen drawer from the jacket isn't clear. The man who died probably put it there. Finally, there was actually a second rogue radiation source found on the side of a road the following year, so this likely wasn't even the only time the facility had been robbed from

[@-desertpackrat]

5:26 as soon as he mentioned the line being fed through that hole I knew exactly what was going to happen, like exactly. It's that obvious how bad of an idea that is. Why would you ever, ever attach someone to a winch line through a hole a human body can't pass through? A small child could have seen this scenario coming if you just told them the first 5 minutes of this story. Also this is why automating jobs isn't an issue, the people who need a new job can just learn to work on the robots that do the dangerous jobs, you get paid as much to build the robot, it's all screws and cables, there's no reason to be putting human lives in these situations for money, it's so gross. this is what we're supporting by fighting the change to hydro and electric vehicles and making excuses.. among all the other issues, the people who proteest losing their jobs when oil dies, are being sacrificed and brainwashed to think it's okay because "but I make a lotta money". screw big oil dude.

[@bananafruit6060]

As a child around 4-5 I was on a train with my grandfather who had pretty bad Alzheimers. As a child I didn’t know any better and he was an adult so I trusted his judgment. We were in New York and my parents were supposed to be meeting me and him at a train station. But for some reason we didn’t get off at the right stop, even tho I insisted that it was the right one he ruled me out and we left on the next train. We were lost for six hours in that subway. He was a proud man and refused to ask for help and he made me, a small child, use his flip phone multiple times to call my parents, which I didn’t know how to use and neither did he very well. It was a nightmare and honestly scarred me worse then any other severe childhood trauma I ever had. The was he told me we where at the wrong stop when I very clearly remembered where we were supposed to get off at… scares me. I also hate that my parents didn’t think anything bad would happen. Like sure, leave your 5 yo child with the barely functioning grandparent who regularly forgets to take medicine and doesn’t like technology.

Gordon deserves justice what the absolute fuck. I’ve been a Job Corps PAINTING pre apprentice for almost two years and I work with heavy machinery and dangerous substances all the time and I KNOW not to let my eye off one of my peers or instructors while they’re doing something SMALL OR BIG, even if the job is seemingly done. Of course I don’t know what it’s like on an oil rig, but I’m pretty sure anyone in blue collar work can understand the importance the basic principles of SAFETY FUCKIN FIRST, but obviously this video proves me so terribly wrong.

[@dhart1496]

late to the party but wanted to point out-in the early stages of dementia a person can be normal 90% of the time. My mom just got diagnosed, and maybe every couple of days, especially if she is tired/its late in the day she will start to get disoriented, and forget like, who the dog is, or ask why we are in a strange house, or where my step dad(passed away 5 years ago) is. Once you correct her (after be very upset for a few minutes) it tends to wear off pretty quick-though sometimes she needs to rest for her mind to clear up. If Bernard was in that stage, and had been clear headed when last talking to anyone, they may not have thought it was worth micromanaging him(ppl in early stages get very annoyed/feel powerless and like to have as much self control as possible). I am lucky (in a way) that my mom already had health issues that made her home bound/reliant on my help so she is not as smothered by needing more.

Sometimes the things that trigger pig is so odd to me, especially given that some of the jokes he makes aren't super tame either. Wouldn't surprise me if the person in chat that brought up mating was just a casual viewer and didn't know about the backstory of pig's bunnies. Assuming reasonable ignorance, and the position the bunnies were in, that's not a stretch to suggest mating. idk maybe it's just me?

I think for the last story there's a lot of victim blaming of the family of that old man.

Let's call this what it is, a sad freak accident which resulted in a man's death, who's family feel horrible and presumably so do the mall staff who failed to spot him in time to save him.

Poor Bernard bro, that must’ve been so exhausting and scary for him. It’s also not the family’s fault, or even really security.

[@NeroBaelside13]

Simple protocol requiring walkie talkies to ensure there are no miscommunications should be in place for such dangerous oil rig operations.

49:30 my parents used leashes and a harness for us in crowded places, and I'm very grateful, I would have been kdnapped and human trafficked so fast the second I wasn't attached to my parents, and we were super hyperactive and would wander off, we literally had to be leashed, some kids do, can we normalize parents tethering their babies to them for safety in this world where people will kidnap a child without a second thought? There are videos of kids getting grabbed standing 2 feet behind their mother inside of a store and only the grace of a quick bystander stopped it. Don't let people shame you into not leashing your kids to you especially if you live in a high crime area, it's a literal safety line. We never cared as kids, we thought it was funny, no one around us cared, and we're all normal with a normal relationship with our parents. We just never got kidnapped lol

We didn’t do leashing as kids, but we had to hold hands with our parents, hold onto the stroller/cart/etc. or had their hands on our shoulders to steer us (mostly tiny half blind me lol, we can’t walk in a straight line even still). I still link arms, hold hands, grab onto my mom’s bag or dad’s elbow, etc. (partly bc I’m half blind, partly bc habit, partly bc crowds and I’ve gotten lost as an adult and it was still scary) and they still help me balance and hold onto me if I feel like I’m going to fall (which is common, they’re very good at spotting it before I really feel it and lots of times take initiative to grab me first lol).

[@hannahbanana7723]

Why does the first story sound like something that would happen in a Final Destination movie? As for the child leash, totally for it. I was too friendly a child. Never experienced stranger danger and everyone could be my friend. We had family friends stop by, but I wasn't aware who they were, just saw that they had kids in their car and just jumped right on in. I'd walk up and grab hands of strangers and just walk with them. At playgrounds, I'd bolt from the car exclaiming, "Hey guys! It's me, Hannah!" People would give my mom shit for the leash she would put on me, but hell, try keeping up with a not-yet diagnosed Autistic ADHD toddler 😅
