There was a guy on KZread who told the story of his suicide attempt. He had cut one of his wrists and then he remembered he had to feed his dog and make sure he was fine. That was enough time for clarity or help to come along. That's what amazing about dogs (pets in general acrially)actually. We love them more than we live ourselves. Perhaps if we don't think our lives are worth it, we should consider what these little guys would go through without you. Maybe that would be enough to at least try... for them.

Sorry to say but souls don't exist/are part of human mythos. That said, there's no doubt that sapience is determined by the brain, and the brain is the most complex organ our body develops prenatally - there's a lot that can go wrong (just like the body). Some people are born with the prerequisite defects to develop anti-social personality disorder (psychopathy), some people are bonked on the head real good and that does it. The good news is that since it has nothing to do with a mythical eternal spirit that possesses our body, and instead is a defect of the brain, potentially it's treatable - perhaps future victims can be prevented one day. C'mon science, let's goooooo~!

Action Man was called G.I. Joe in the US and was manufactured by Hasbro. The British version was manufactured under license by Palitoy.

I was wondering when you would cover The Hungerford Massacre! This case is also covered on "Britain's Most Evil Killers" S1E11, and they do a really good job as well. You go into the names and relationships of many of the victims, which Britain's Most Evil Killers didn't, except for a few. Great video, as always. This case in 1987, the Columbine School Shooting (1999), the Bath School Massacre (1926), and the recent Robb Elementary Shooting (2022) will forever stand out to me as some of the most horrific mass murders in the US. Notice how 3 of the 4 occurred at schools. How disgusting and evil, to kill innocent children!

Wow. This is harrowing. I wonder why the victims are not remembered annually as we do the Hillsborough victims? This was definitely an anomaly for the UK yet over 30yrs later, this is the 1st time I've come across story.

I just have to commend you for addressing the false flag business. It means a lot to the victims and their families. I also know it’s got to be hard putting yourself out there. You did the right thing and in a way you will be punished for it as I am sure some idiots unsubscribed. I know you must work very hard on this channel and it’s your baby of sorts so that’s gotta be hard. Despite all that you did the right thing and it is extremely admirable. You could’ve taken the easy route, stayed quiet on that subject and as a result reaped the benefits by placating this group of people and keeping that count up. You didn’t and instead you did the right thing. it’s folks like you that give me faith that tomorrow is going to be ok and we’re going to figure this whole thing out. Thank you so much. I really hope this channel keeps growing, it’s criminal that you aren’t at 1 mil subscribers.

Only just discovered your channel so comment rather late. Great account. It reminded me that a guy I once knew was a soldier at the camp some 10-15 miles down the road and was on sentry duty that day. He said they heard the shooting and recognised it as an AK. Thinking it could be Irish terrorists (this was at the end of the Troubles) the corporal dished out ammunition and had the guard turn out and load into landrovers but their officer stopped them going to investigate as it was a 'civilian matter' off base and the Army couldn't intervene. Had they done so Ryan would have come face to face with real soldiers who'd have been there much quicker than the armed police... a what if spoiled by red tape.

@Funny Clips Mass murders are now an extreme rarity in the UK and Europe. That's due to very strong gun laws. Those who are licensed to have guns, usually only for hunting, have to undergo deep background checks. Their guns must be kept locked in heavy duty safes, which are bolted into concrete ground. Police can turn up at any time, such as 3.15am or 5pm and ask to see the safe and guns. If they are not securely locked in the safe, the owner can lose their licence and the guns are seized immediately. I could never live in the US. Gun crime there is totally out of control.

Outstanding as usual. I’ve never heard of this. At least I don’t remember if I did. A true monster.

love your vids man

I grew up in Hungerford and my family go back in the town for hundreds of years. I was there that day and I will never forget the sounds of gunshots being sharper and more metallic than the usual 12 bore shotguns (common in that area) while we were on the marsh. From around midday onwards, the whole town changed. We could see the fire of his burning home and that of his neighbours from our house. I will never forget how people would be passing our house speaking of an ever increasing body count and a well known local cab driver nick-named Barney being slumped dead in his car.

Thanks for covering my suggestion mate.

In 1987 there were only 57 million people in the UK, with far less guns than people. There are over 400 million firearms accounted for in the U.S. That's not counting the illegal gun manufacturing and distribution coming into the U.S., as well as homemade guns, and Ghost Guns. Some people have estimated there to be enough guns in the U.S. for every man, woman, and child on Earth to have TWO, and some people would have three. These numbers have an impact on the effectiveness of gun control in the United States, and it's in very bad taste to be trivializing a hot button issue for views.

That said, a kitchen knife can do almost as much damage, a pencil can ruin a family in the wrong hands. If anyone of these victims had a fire arm and to be clear no legal repercussions, then maybe they could have stopped him. I also understand he was armed to the teeth and a .45 isn't much but they could have defended themselves. Bought time until the police showed up possibly. At some point we stopped teaching our kids that guns were tools and it's the people who use them are the problem NOT the gun. Now we teach them guns are either scary or a way to get what you want.

The crime rate in the US peeked in 95 and has steadily decreased ever since. The crime rate in the US has actually gotten pretty low (compared to itself). The media would like you to believe otherwise. It's almost like someone Cough-NRA-Cough wants you to believe we live in a super dangerous country so you need to keep a bunch of guns around to protect yourself. Weird.

The best way to stop murder is to make it illegal. That will stop criminals from their horrendous actions.

I live near Hungerford and also, at that time, had just quit working at one of the rare gunshops in the UK, Windsor Guns and Fieldsports, where i had worked for a couple of years. My best friend was/is a local gunsmith and makes stocks for amongst others the Purdy shotgun company. I was absolutely up to speed with the shooting community and gun laws in our country. After Ryan commited the unspeakable act Windsor Guns eventually closed as trying to get a shotgun license (for a good time) was almost as difficult as getting a firearms certificate. Pre Hungerford a farmer (for instance) could buy 10,000 shotgun cartridges if he wished, after the laws changed there was a cap. Firearms certificates were already difficult enough to be granted as police checks were stringent, pistols (certainly in my end of Berkshire) had to be stored at a gun club and were very, very rarely allowed to be taken home. Home had to have certified gun cabinets bolted to floor and walls and hidden. The limit of live rounds depended on the owners job, as in did he use his rifle to keep vermin down or was he a weekend user. After Hungerford this was even tightened, your mental history was checked thoroughly as was your familial mental history. Regular amnesties harvested thousands of firearms, swords, knives etc. Yes the gunshops slowly disappeared. But absolutely for the better.
