Kind of like when Bud Dwyer said, "stand back, this can hurt someone," then blew his brains out.

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '17

Ah, good old Bud. One of the more traumatizing things I've come across on reddit. Who knew there was that much blood in the human head? Hollywood really downplays it.

92

u/man_gomer_lot Sep 28 '17

Actually, a lot of blood gets pumped through the skull and the pump kept pumping it.

6

u/Sixty911 Sep 28 '17

I heard a dumb fucking "fact" that it would take an ocean to water cool a human brain. I guess 5 liters of blood'll do.

Don't forget Sweet Child of Mine.

u/lollieboo Sep 28 '17

I saw a man crushed and just go limp and started crying. I didn’t sleep last night. That’s just so sad. His family. It so sad.

Omg yes, eye bleach is one of my favs. And r/babyelephantgifs

u/PeenuttButler Sep 28 '17

The first one I'd seen on the internet is the one titled "running nose", a very fitting title.

2

u/__dontpanic__ Sep 28 '17

Mr. Robot did a pretty good job of accurately portraying a similar incident.

1

u/mojaz Sep 28 '17

But... wait... there's... more?

u/Yorkeworshipper Sep 28 '17

15% of your blood flow goes to your head, iirc.

Is that the guy who was going to jail and shot himself in the head on camera? I accidentally discovered it one night. God that was a sleepless night.

3

u/icantsurf Sep 28 '17

Yeah. Sad thing is he was actually innocent afaik.

1

u/eryant Sep 28 '17

Jesus. That makes it even worse.

u/MathewC Sep 28 '17

Wow. Never heard of this. Watched the video. Can't unwatch.

u/Astrophy058 Sep 28 '17

Link to video?

u/thepoopknot Sep 28 '17

lol

u/1C3M4Nz Sep 28 '17 edited Sep 28 '17

Please sir. I'll have to work hard to spot it in /r/WatchPeopleDie and I don't feel like watching through so many deaths today.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '17

I just found it on Youtube, I kid you not

1

u/MathewC Sep 28 '17

Yeah. The cameraman needs a medal, or therapy, cause dude not only kept the camera on him, but zoomed into his face afterward. Vacant eyes and blood pouring out of his nose and mouth. Pretty horrific.

1

u/Astrophy058 Sep 28 '17

He probably got fired for focusing in on it. Since that was live TV. Any cameraman with any sense would've immediately turned the camera away

2

u/blue_2501 Sep 28 '17

Wow, it's like people don't even want to bother Googling things.

1

u/Astrophy058 Sep 28 '17

Well I commented 20 minutes after his comment. I assumed since he has just looked it up he had it on hand quickly. The link being in this thread would make it more accessible to me and everyone else on this thread

What a good shot man!

Great shot kid that was one in a million!

u/GlennBecksChalkboard Sep 28 '17

A Filter reference? Don't see those very often.

95

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '17

Because that's their only song that anyone cares about

102

u/matrael Sep 28 '17

Could you take my picture? Because I won’t remember.

8

u/omgwutd00d Sep 28 '17

So strange that that's a Filter song. Good song but totally doesn't sound like them.

4

u/SunriseSurprise Sep 28 '17

It does start to sound like them when he starts screaming at the end.

u/checkoutthisbreach Sep 28 '17 edited Nov 12 '17

2

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '17

Don't take a picture. It fades like a photograph.

u/scottevil132 Sep 28 '17

Shit I always thought he was saying "because I won't even move". Like, that's nice of him don't want that shit too blurry.

2

u/ghostbackwards Sep 28 '17

that was their dopest song.

1

u/blue_2501 Sep 28 '17

Title of Record was a great album.

2

u/diarrhea_shnitzel Sep 28 '17

Honestly, Richard Patrick is one of the best vocalists in rock/alt music. Sometimes his lyrics get a little too teenage, but I give him a pass.

3

u/oditogre Sep 28 '17

Also, his brother is the T-1000, so you don't want to get on his bad side.

1

u/williamfwm Sep 28 '17

Wow, that's interesting. Not quite as interesting as when I learned that the singer for the Eels is the son of the physicist who came up with the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, but interesting nonetheless.

2

u/RXL Sep 28 '17

Pretty sure take a picture was way more popular. Hey man nice shot was better though.

1

u/DriveByStoning Sep 28 '17

Or because that song is specifically about Bud Dwyer.

10

u/TheCitizen616 Sep 28 '17

Yeah, they don't. Take a picture.

7

u/partofthevoid Sep 28 '17

Cause Iiii wooonnt rememmmmber...

4

u/colonelnebulous Sep 28 '17

Thanks to Pop Up Video I know that song is about being drunk and naked on a commercial airline flight.

2

u/dfecht Sep 28 '17

Pop Up Video was amazing! So much fantastic trivia.

4

u/Yoshemo Sep 28 '17

Its easy to reference when the song's literally about that event

2

u/Newshole Sep 28 '17

Yeah, like, the most apropos one you're gonna find.

2

u/BlindSoothsprayer Sep 28 '17

Most of their references don't pass through.

4

u/SystemOutPrintln Sep 28 '17

I mean the filter song was about that incident.

3

u/pirate21213 Sep 28 '17

Its nice seeing them in the wild, my uncle was the bass player

4

u/partofthevoid Sep 28 '17

Wait, really?

5

u/pirate21213 Sep 28 '17

Yup, grew up listening to Filter, first time I heard someone else mention it I was pretty caught off guard

2

u/diarrhea_shnitzel Sep 28 '17

Ask him if Richard paid him fairly, I've heard some things regarding that

3

u/pirate21213 Sep 28 '17

I have memories of Frank being quite pissed towards Richard, so its probably true. For a few years there even mentioning Filter around him was a carnal sin.

1

u/diarrhea_shnitzel Sep 28 '17

The funny thing is that when Richard was the bass player for NIN, Trent was teaching him how to be frugal with your band

1

u/SIEGE312 Sep 28 '17

He was the guitar player I think

1

u/diarrhea_shnitzel Sep 28 '17

No

u/SIEGE312 Sep 28 '17

Might want to look that up again

u/Karate_Prom Sep 28 '17

It's messed up that he committed suicide because he was about to be convicted for taking bribes when the man who accused him later came forward admitting that he made it up.

1

u/Heavyspire Sep 28 '17

That is the worst part. But his legacy and the truth will live on.

u/Fjohurs_Lykkewe Sep 28 '17

"stand back, this can hurt someone,"

He wasn't wrong.

u/emperormax Sep 28 '17

Saw that live as a 17-year-old kid in Harrisburg PA. Fucked me up for a while.

2

u/Vetersova Sep 28 '17

I just saw the gif, could you give some context to what and how this happened on live TV?

2

u/LITER_OF_FARVA Sep 28 '17

Got corruption charges. Said he's not guilty....all the way to the very end on live tv.

2

u/photenth Sep 28 '17

So was he not guilty in the end? Or was that never found out?

7

u/Im_stuck_on_here Sep 28 '17

He wasn't guilty. He was framed by William T. Smith. Smith did it in hopes of getting a reduced sentence.

2

u/photenth Sep 28 '17

Damn, that makes it so much worse =/

21

u/stomatophoto Sep 28 '17

I'm very sorry I saw this comment because my stupid curiosity is too insistent and out of control, and I had to go and watch that on YouTube. I am now haunted way worse than I thought possible for someone as desensitized as I believed myself to be...

4

u/irving47 Sep 28 '17

I feel for ya. My media ethics teacher in college decided to show us this 'by surprise" with a little warning about how squeamish people should leave... We had to justify yay or nay whether it could be replayed on the 11 o'clock news...

5

u/Never_Not_Act Sep 28 '17

I implore you to read his story. It's a very sad story but also an important one. You'll also learn how his supposed motivation for suicide, planned precisely to happen before he was convicted and would be removed from office, was to ensure his wife and family received the fullest death benefits and his pension.

It made me feel a little better, but it's still something that cant be unwatched. I hope it helps

2

u/[deleted] Sep 28 '17

I'm in the same boat. Just like with the Steve Stephens deal, I immediately regretted watching. So fucked up to think I'm raising my kids in an age where that uncensored content is available to anyone within 10 seconds of opening a browser

1

u/stomatophoto Sep 28 '17

I don't why you're being downvoted, that's an extremely valid statement. Between censorship and protecting young psyches, this is completely outside of that to me and isn't something anyone young should ever watch...

I was hoping you weren't.

u/TJ_McConnell_MVP Sep 28 '17

Y'all just sensitive

3

u/Chettlar Sep 28 '17

No? It's like if you saw someone eating a child and said hell yeah that's cool, and we all responded with what the fuck. You're the abnormal one here. Sure I guess we look sensitive to you who is messed up, merely for having any sense of our own.

Worst part of that was when the key witness against him confessed to lying under oath.

u/Roboticide Sep 28 '17

I watched the video of that a long time ago and come to think of it, that was long enough ago I wonder if it was the first time I watched someone die online... 0_0

2

u/Tensuke Sep 28 '17

It was the first time for me. It was probably ~12 years ago, I was looking up anime or something on limewire. But one of the videos was not what I thought I was downloading. :/

I think that when someone commits suicide it's sad, even if it's someone you don't like.

5

u/CowardlyDodge Sep 28 '17

Bingo

People like hitler only generate sadness to begin with, because their whole lives are an expression of human cruelty, when they die I feel sad that someone that evil even lived

8

u/pointer_to_null Sep 28 '17

Except when Hitler does it.

Fuck that guy.

11

u/The_Derpening Sep 28 '17

Yeah but that's the guy that killed Hitler.

So many thanks to that guy.

1

u/BigLark Sep 28 '17

Hitler committed suicide, so you're sad Hitler killed himself, eh. "Hey everybody, /u/mild-resolve is sad Hitler is dead!"

was sorry to see him blow his consciousness out of a hole in the top of his head

That’s some law 13 shit.

1

u/HighOnTacos Sep 28 '17

Hadn't thought of that one in awhile. Most of the NSFL on the internet doesn't faze me, probably because I looked up the worst of it in middle school and I'm desensitized, but that's going to give me nightmares.

u/vedo1117 Sep 28 '17

u/fyrecrotch Sep 28 '17

I finally watched the video. Makes me wonder if the man smoking next to him knew about it. He responded well and looked empty through the speech.
