nope the toilet, it was just the toilet window was an easy place for someone to get into. and as I've said above, whites were terrified at the time because a lot of freed blacks, aka after apartheid was abolished were on the hunt for revenge, all white homes had guns because of this. home raids and breaki ins were then common.

THIS!.. it was the first thing i said.. watched this whole trial and from the start was like who breaks into your house to lock themselves in your bathroom.. it was a bathroom on the 2nd floor and had a small slim window.. it was also in a gated secure community.. there are photos of the house and layout and during the case they showed diagrams of what he did, where he shot etc.. neighbour heard him arguing with reeva, which he had to be shouting loud when you see the house to be heard by a neighbour and had previous arrests for shooting guns in public..

Prosthetist here- fun fact about the "unfair advantage": because Oscar is a double amputee his prosthetic legs can be adjusted to change his height. It was found that when he ran a race with longer prosthetic legs, he ran faster. That was the true heart of his "unfair advantage" and it kind of blew up and morphed into something else entirely

[@fammnak852]

Wow, thanks for this insight!

[@jessicabohn9429]

What if that height was actually more proportionate and correct for his body, thus giving him more proper balance while running? That "advantage" wouldn't be linear and would start declining passed a certain height.

Exactly!!!! If you were woken from your sleep due to hearing an intruder, Human nature would make you wake up panicked & wake up the person nxt to you to alert them! Secondly, what would an intruder be doing in the bathroom other than leaving more dna evidence or robbing toothpaste? Literally makes no sense. No one would just shoot through a door when you know there's another person in the house

[@MultiCowgirl22]

[@amychristofield320]

[@kaylablack6218]

Yeah you would think the thought process would be "someones in the bathroom, where's my gf? In bed, that means it's not her" THEN act. But even then just blindly shooting Through the door is a bit extreme

[@haileyranson8255]

This happened to my parents when my mother was heavily pregnant with me. She went to the toilet in the dark and my dad heard someone moving around and in his still half asleep state, he swung his bat at my mother when she came back into the room (in the dark, obviously). Thankfully she screamed and dove on the bed , so he missed her. But he still swears to this day he saw her in bed beside him. My mother laughs about it now (I'm almost 32), but my dad still finds it very upsetting to talk about. I'm not saying its normal 😂 but I do think it's more plausible than it initially seems. I don't necessarily think it applies for this case as he clearly wasn't half asleep when he fired his gun four times into the locked bathroom door. But I always think of my dad when I hear about this case!

[@ami4764]

I am proudly South African! This story was followed religiously here in South Africa and it was so sad that Ms Steenkamp lost her live. The story does not make sense.

As a South African, this episode felt personal and more serious than the others. Oscar's trial was so huge in the country and the media went crazy about it. Unfortunately only Reeva and him know what happened that night because some parts of his story sound a little bit fabricated and do not align with the timeline of events, he was also lucky that he had a strong defense team behind him. His abusive past and aggression episodes also add doubt and kind of invalidate the truthfulness of his story. Back to you Bailey, I love the look for today. You look bold and beautiful as always...

Unfortunately, I had a dear friend pass away in a similar situation. She was a wonderful woman, wife, and mother of two little girls. There had been recent break ins in their neighborhood. The couple thought they heard someone breaking in earlier the same tragic night. So the husband had his gun near him after checking things out the first time. Later during the night he woke up hearing someone in the kitchen. He shot at the figure in the dark room. He assumed his wife was still in bed when he left the room. But she was shot in the chest. Their oldest girl, just 4, called 911 while he performed CPR. That was a tragic mistake. People doubted him but their relationship was full of love. He was on edge from actual break ins. This athlete?! No. With his history, I fully believe he knew who was in that bathroom.

1. I think he deliberatly killed her 2. i think his prothetics did give him an unfair advantage. 3. i'm all for rehabilitation but ... his sentence was laughibly short.

[@Luvomlenze2771]

South Africans have arrived 🤒🤒🤒🤭 he did it. Experiencing the whole trial in real life was something else.

[@LinusVinnportlaced]

So, how's the lasting effects of racism and colonisation been working for you?

[@GrippiAlex]

Wasn’t Gerrie Nel brilliant as the Public Prosecutor. He was an expert on guns but led Oscar down some clever pathways to expose his lies regarding the firearms. He effectively got Oscar to change his defence on day one of cross examination, Oscar then burst into tears because he didn’t understand the law.

[@SoothingTrash]

Well yes, he obviously did it. The debate is was it deliberate or accidental

[@GrippiAlex]

@@SoothingTrash No debate. Both the Supreme Court and High Court found him guilty. Not accidental. Only debate is whether he should be out under house arrest. For me answer is no.

[@unathinkomo5858]

​​@@SoothingTrashOnly a naive human being in denial thinks it wasn't intentional. He knew what he was doing. You don't fire a gun 4 times at a closed door without knowing who's in there. And how can you not feel that the person you sleep next to isn't in bed when you wake up? How did he not see that? He did it deliberately. It's not rocket science it's common sense. He really thinks we're dumb with his ridiculous excuses. And it was a private Gated community how could he think they'd be an intruder? He really thinks we're dumb

[@saraevans7578]

I love your videos Bailey!! I live in Asheville, NC which was devastated by Hurricane Helene late last week. Most of us are living without power, running water, and limited food & gas supplies. I’m sitting here watching your videos using cellular data to try and gain some comfort. If anyone is reading this, please consider donating to local organizations (BeLoved Asheville, Asheville Survival, and many others) to help us rebuild our town from devastating floods.

I can't afford the live show tickets this month but I'm so excited and proud of you ... Very long time watcher ive remodeled my house, had a baby, and just cooked and cleaned to your videos for years. I love rewatching them ❤️

Classic background is back!!! 🤩🤩just in time for spooky season!!!

[@stephanieperri5012]

I use my phone as a light, especially if I'm at someone else's house. Also if Oscar shouted at the "suspect" in the bathroom I'd imagine his gf would respond & if she did he would recognize her voice. I don't know. I don't buy this whole "it was an accident" story

[@Savannahmai]

Exactly my thoughts. I don’t think that point was given the attention it deserved. He claims that was his voice screaming (which I don’t even believe) but if it was, wouldn’t she have responded??? I don’t buy it.

[@raquelkwela]

Big fan of MMM, I really look forward to these stories. Today I got so excited when I saw that you talking about a story from my home, South Africa. I remember this story, I even remember his rise to fame. This was absolutely tragic and really shook the country.

What kind of intruder would be in the bathroom? That doesn't make any sense. Also, the first thing I do when I wake up for any reason is check if my husband is beside me.

I’ve been waiting for you to cover this case! I’m from South Africa and I’ll never forget when this story broke.

[@KTEMTB]

Random facts: Oscar went to the same school as Elon Musk. My pole vault coach was the court sketch artist at Oscar's trails. This was a very interesting time on the track...

[@lesegoseabi4715]

I really thought she would mention this too😂😂😂

[@stephanieramos6047]

Oscar?! One of my professors does research on prosthetic legs (I’m getting a masters in kinesiology) He taught us about Oscar and the whole prosthetic leg debate!! Crazy stuff but very interesting.

[@dreamy9919]

What is his opinion on the advantage debate?

[@stephanieramos6047]

@@dreamy9919 He believes there is no advantage. He’s a biomechanics professor so he has done multiple research experiments with runners that have prosthetic legs. He’s actually testified in court for the side of Paralympic athletes against the Olympic organization. At the end of the day, the athletes lost a limb or even two and there is no way they can ever get those back. That’s a disadvantage period. Also wearing a prosthetic leg is not the most comfortable experience no matter how long the person has been wearing them. They’re stuck with blisters and pain (even phantom pain) for the rest of their lives.

A story that makes sense to me is that they got into an argument and she locked herself in the bathroom to escape and protect herself. He probably lost it and shot at the door.

[@campfantastic7850]

Probably pulled out his gun and she took her phone and locked herself in the bathroom. Guy must be super man because how the F did he shoot her so precisely without seeing her? Through the door? Wild.

[@CrackyFox]

The bathroom was en-suite in the bedroom. The bathroom window was literally too high up for anyone to access without a tall ladder - there was no ladder anywhere, nor any security camera footage of anyone near the house at any point that night/morning. Gerrie Nel (the attorney) and his awesome advocate did a stellar job of finding all the evidence to prosecute and get him sentenced. He had legitimate anger/rage issues. Reeva stood no chance. RIP.

[@katebeshear6208]

I absolutely love your background!!! I've missed the candles. So excited for your Halloween episodes.
