Handrejka 1,904 Posted August 26, 2015 The Corporals Killings were pretty horrible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporals_killings Also I have a vague memory of a reporter being shot live on British TV when he went to interview a landlord or tenant or something. Anyone remember what I'm talking about? I remember it happening, but can't remember the specific details. Was it Albert Dryden, the planning officer and the BBC reporter? https://youtu.be/9VwlSihAMKs Yes! Thanks 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted August 26, 2015 Did anyone see the video the shooter posted to his Twitter before the account was suspended? He was there waving his gun at them for half a minute before he started shooting, and they didn't even notice him. Absolutely chilling. Just seen it on Liveleak. Is the killer a pioneering trendsetter? I don't think I've ever seen anything like that before...but I bet we'll see it again soon. Also - please could members act responsibly when posting videos of people dying? There's potentially a lot of gory subject matter out there, which doesn't necessarily mean it needs to be posted here.

mijkediablo 79 Posted August 26, 2015 I remember hearing about a polition that killed himself on TV This one? yeah,the worst part was the fact that he was really innocent. Yeah, the R Budd Dwyer story's heartbreaking. He was the patsy for the fraudsters. Killed himself because if he'd been indicted his wife and children wouldn't be entitled to his pension or any money. As he died in office, they were financially protected, if not protected from that awful footage or the infamy of the manner of their father/husband's death. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone remember what I'm talking about? I remember it happening, but can't remember the specific details. Was it Albert Dryden, the planning officer and the BBC reporter? Oh man, this scene was 'so British'. As much as I regret seeing innocent blood being drawn, I can't help thinking that this planning officer has brought it on himself. Clearly, if a loony waving his gun orders you to leave and you are unarmed, you do as you're told, and let the police sort it all out, it's their job, right? But no, you just chill there and ask whether they can 'get a shot of that gun'. Well done, mate! You just got one in your chest! And the stupid journalists are just standing there taking pictures behind the loony guy. I read that the loony has tried to appeal against his life sentence on the grounds that he was provoked. Well, he was - by the sheer idiocy of the arrogant planning officer and the media. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,329 Posted August 27, 2015 Bloody awful !Does anyone know if this is the first murder ever on live TV (excluding state executions and terrorist attacks)?I was at work so didn't see it at the time but the Detroit news feed is quite famous for being live when the second plane hit the tower on 9/11. I know it's not totally to the point but hey. I would think there are a few of these incidents now and again of reporters et.al dying on a live feed (weather reporter's helicopter crashes I know of a couple), but a murder? You may be onto something, can't think of one off the top o' me noggin. SC Jill Dando a very famous British TV presenter and Newsreader was murdered by a gunman in 1999.It wasn`t televisedbut was a massive news story for many years.The man they convicted of her murder was acquitted after many years and the case remains unsolved..Benazir Bhutto was recorded dying but I don`t know if it was broadcast on Live TV.Many famous people have been assassinated on camera such as JFK Bobby Kennedy but of Course those were both well before live television.Steve Irwin`s death was filmed but never released.Peter Smedley has the distinction of being the first natural death to be shown on British TV when he committed suicide in a Terry Pratchett documentary.There was controversy a couple of years before that when a documentary of an Alzheimer`s patient Malcolm Pointon appeared to show him succumb to the disease in footage of him on his deathbed.It was later revelead though that the footage was of him falling into a coma two days prior to his death. This is certainly the only reporter shot dead on air that I can find any credible evidence for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest KeiraV Posted September 2, 2015 It's not a Death on Live but I want to share it cause I find it very interesting. Then 25 years old Turkish singer named Ebru Gundes was having a press meeting to introduce her new album in 1999 when she had brain haemorrhage. The event is recorded and at the time was widely circulated in Turkish press. The young woman cheerfully chats with press on her new album, career and personal life when suddenly (00:54 of video) she signals that she feels dizzy and in a few seconds looses her consciousness and falls on the floor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8teMYXrRHAE Ebru Gundes had two major operations after brain haemorrhage and has spent a lot of time away from the public eye, recuperating, and eventually she returned to full health and still active in music industry. Also, this video is said to be The first ever recorded brain haemorrhage on live in history. (Not my claim) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
