Trump is the BIGGEST DISASTER OF ALL TIME.
I was middle school during 9/11! Very saddened day of that year! It’s happened so fast that an airplane crashes into a building in smoke and fire!
Ferdinand Foch wanted harsher punishments for Germany yet he knew WW2 would happen in the next 20 years. If he punishment was harsher WW2 might've started way earlier.
Just imagine if these warnings were listened to. MILLIONS would've been saved
The Army Corps of Engineers was attempting to upgrade the levees on the lower Mississippi River before hurricane Katrina, but environmentalists interfered, hindered, and delayed the needed improvements.
If I've learned anything from every disaster movie ever made, it's that you listen to the crazy disgraced scientist that's trying to warn you in the beginning of the movie.
Yep !
Yes😂
@@ChristopherJohn4389the comment is still valid
@@ChristopherJohn4389 whaaaaat, you mean Dean Cain didn't actually save us all from that meteor, or the volcano or whatever? I dunno, he's been in a bunch of those movies. My world is shook. Shooken, I tells you.
The day after tomorrow! My favorite natural disaster movie of all time! 🔥
I'll add an honorable mention: John Liotine worked as a mechanic at the Alaska Airlines maintenance base in Oakland, CA. Concerned about inadequate maintenance practices, fraudulent record keeping, and pressure from the company to certify planes that were unfit to fly, he reported the company to the FAA in 1998. In January 2000, Alaska Flight 261 crashed off the coast of LA, killing all 88 passengers and crew on board. The cause of the crash was found to be inadequate maintenance which failed to detect that a critical component of the aircraft's tail had reached the end of its service life and was too worn to be safely depended on
One of the most horrifying crashes I’ve ever heard of.
In the 1990s I flew on Alaska MD-80s between California and Seattle many times. I have often wondered if I'd ever been on the plane that crashed. It horrifies me to think about what if.
I remember being in the fourth grade on 9/11/01.
All of the sudden, all classes were advised to meet in the school gym that afternoon. The students sat on the floor. Teachers stood with their groups. I had no idea why the last class of the day was interrupted until I heard the principal say this:
“In New York City, a plane crashed into a tower and every single person in the building was hurt. In Washington D.C., a plane crashed into a building there, and everyone was hurt.”
Those words scared the daylights out of me. I felt vulnerable. I felt sorry for those who were hurt or killed. I couldn’t stop crying. When I got home, seeing that terrifying footage of the towers burning on NBC News, I was tossing a small Rubik’s cube in my hands, distracting myself from just how scary reality can be.
i remember being in college and being woken up by my boyfriend calling me to tell me "a plane flew into the world trade center." that's all he said, and it sounded like some kind of terrible accident involving a biplane or a little puddlejumper or something. 10 minutes later my best friend called me screaming "A PLANE FLEW INTO THE WORLD TRADE CENTER AND 50,000 PEOPLE ARE DEAD!!!" i didn't have a TV in my dorm and still nobody had said anything about passenger jets or hijackers or terrorists, so i went to my classes. i don't like watching footage of people dying so i avoided the news broadcasts in the common areas. eventually i was up to speed by word of mouth but i never really had the same... trauma response everyone else seemed to have. it wasn't really that different from news of an earthquake or a war somewhere overseas. kind of funny how everyone was so devastated by the loss of 3000 lives in one targeted attack, but a virus sweeps the country and kills that many people a day every single day for a couple of years and suddenly it's "but muh freedoms" and "plandemic" and "gotta sacrifice grandma to keep the economy open!"
I was in 3rd grade. We were playing outside and we were told to come back into the class. When we got inside, my mom was there with all the other parents. I remember wondering why everyone's parents were there. Can't exactly remember what my mom told me but I do remember parents and kids crying and hugging.
Wait, Washington DC was not hit that day. Why did your teacher say Washington DC was hit that day ?
@daniellemullen5035 I, too, was in fourth grade. Teachers had it shown in every tv available in their classrooms. I remember watching it and feeling the need to do something about it. Who knew 9 years later I would enlist and serve tours in the same war.
@@ricardozetino6907What are you talking about? The Pentagon was hit.
This is what happens when we ignore whistleblowers. We get tragedies like 9/11, the _Challenger_ disaster, the sinking of the _Titanic,_ you name it.
An advantage to social media and communication should have been that these early warnings would be accepted. We are still as a society pretty stupid. Unless there is a cute cat video.
9/11 was an inside job! The guys who built the damn building and many other Engineers proved it! I ain’t defending Osama or others like him. Americans know who did yet they act like they don’t😂
Edward Snowden, we are slowly losing our freedoms.
@@MichaelC1245 The irony is that he chose to flee to a country that doesn't really know the value of freedom. As in Russia. Besides he did it because he was mad at the fact Ron Paul didn't make it to the presidential elections.
@@NealCamerlengo He *had* to flee to a country that would protect his personal freedom and keep him safe from government revenge. Staying in a democratic country (like Julian Assange did) wouldn't have been safe. And your insinuation he sacrificed his whole life for such a petty reason is ridiculous. He was pissed and worried about the Orwellian methods the US government uses and he paid a high price for informing the people. It's shameful how little the American people value his sacrifice.
Honorable mention: when the World Trade Center was in the planning stages, Chief Vincent Dunn, FDNY, filed suit to change the design of the building, on the grounds that an uncontrolled multifloor fire would result in catastrophic structural failure of the towers.
I was 11 years old and in Grade 6 when the Challenger blew up... All of us kids were scared and horrified to hear about it and some of us even cried. It was the biggest disaster we could remember to that point.
I'm a native Floridan and we had the class TV on and ran out to watch. We knew it was too cold and we were four counties away 😢😢
i was only 5 when it happened but by the time i was in 5th grade i was going to an elementary school named after christa mcauliffe
We're the exact same age.
For me, this moment was in kindergarten when 9/11 happened. Over the loudspeaker, the principle told every teacher to turn the news on the TV and said school is cancelled for the day. My teacher started crying, and so did many of my classmates. My mom picked me up crying and I knew something terrible happened but I didn’t understand the severity of it since I was only 5. I will never forget that day.
I feel like the last 15 years of my life (and probably much longer than that) has been people who actually know what they're talking about raising literally every warning they can that we are on the verge of complete societal collapse from every metric imaginable, and those with the power to actually do anything about it don't just ignore then but actively brag about how they're gonna do the exact opposite of what they've been advised not to do.
I feel like I'm living in a poorly written satire movie.
Half of USA citizens believe only good people are coming into the USA 🇺🇸 😅
EVEN IF THEY DIDNT VOTE FOR TRUMP OTHER COUNTRIES HAVE PLANS TO GO AFTER ANYTHING OR ANYONE ON USA SOIL
I’ve always admired Dan Applegate for warning McDonnell Douglas about the deadly flaw in the DC-10’s left rear cargo door. His warning came 15 days after an American Airlines DC-10 flying from Detroit to Buffalo lost its left rear cargo door over Windsor, Ontario. The DC-10 limped back to Detroit with all 67 passengers and crew surviving their brush with death alive, albeit 11 passengers & 2 members of cabin crew were injured. In his warning, he expressed concern over the lack of ventilation in the cargo compartment near the rear galley of the cabin and warned that it was only a matter of time when disaster struck again, but with deadly consequences. The warning itself said the following: “The airplane (referring to the DC-10) demonstrated an inherent susceptibility to catastrophic failure when exposed to explosive decompression of the cargo compartment.” Unfortunately, Douglas never received Applegate’s warning and 2 years later, THY 981 had its left rear cargo door blown off and 346 people were killed in an otherwise PREVENTABLE accident.
If you don't learn from history you're doomed to repeat it. They didn't learn from preventing WW2 so not surprising they didn't prevent this sadly
Tesla said it best in how he described people of his time not caring and being cruel. He knew the time
I can just imagine the ghost of John P. O'Neill cursing the naysayers: "I FUCKING TOLD YOU SO!!"
A top heavy old liner, faulty electrics, imminent earthquakes, swarms of bees, rickety bridges and stolen jumbo jets. No warnings heeded.
I was eleven years old on 9/11. My brother and me were visiting his then girlfriend Kasia (we're Polish, that would be "Katie" in english) who worked in a radio. We were fooling around a little, until one of Kasia's co-workers said something like "Oh my God, the US! A plane hit a building in the US!" I was like "wait, what?", my brother finally said something like "ain't those some early reports you seeing? You sure it's big, ain't that some misinformation, maybe?" We went home soon after that to find rest of the family glued to the TV with blank stares. No one seemed to realize we're back (our mother has a habit of greeting every family memeber when we would return home). I said nothing, watching the screen with internal ".......". My brother eventually said "Oh, fuck. Fuck! Fuck!" Mom, who would under any other circumstances roar "LANGUAGE!", still didn't seem to hear him.
These Disasters only happen because the Idiots at the top Ignore the smart ones at the bottom..
Exactly
1000% agree
You forget the 1000s of warnings in cases where nothing has happened. Hindsight is always 20/20.
I definitely thought that was Saul Goodman in the thumbnail 😂
Apparently we have forgotten. With Katrina, the feds sent the money. But, the state took it and used it for other things. And some times the fed sent it other places after it was earmarked for the levy's. It's amazing how short our memory is with politics in this country.
This is completely made-up and you know it is. Also, the vast majority of the criticism of Katrina was the response *after* the disaster occurred, not just the failure to properly prevent the worst of the disaster before-hand. There is a reason why Katrina is uniquely looked back upon as the worst possible way to handle hurricane disasters, and it's because the federal government failed to, or sat around and did nothing for a long period after, the type of stuff that the federal government can ACTUALLY do after a disaster like we saw. Partially it was because New Orleans is a very black and non-white city and of course George W. Bush felt that he didn't owe that segment of the population aid, but also because the administration was preoccupied with illegally invading multiple other countries and siphoning money to the wealthy with tax cuts.
There are some things feds can help with when it comes to storms and there are some things it cannot, because of our insanely stupid system where we delegate these type of things to states (which is an insanely brain-dead idea in and of itself considering the fact that one of the main reasons we literally having a fucking government in the first place is PRECISELY for things like natural disasters which we make worse by destroying our climate and empowering storms, or man-made disasters) but this was an example of the federal government not even doing the bare minimum it is legally allowed to do and is responsible for. Katrina and the aftermath could have easily been 50% less deadly and awful after the event occurred if the government put even the bare minimum responsibility into the response, which they did not do, again, primarily because it's a black area. If New Orleans was 95% white, Katrina, the damage, and the horrendous response would not be the hurricane we know it as today, because it would have been properly responded to.
@@Black_Caucus Made up? No. It was widely known for years before the hurricane and was reported on for about 3 years after. They even had discussions on the house floor about the money not making it to the levy's for the needed updates and upgrades that were requested for for years before hand. It was what started the whole Ray Nagin incident. Looking to find out where the money all went. So, made up. Not even close.
My buddy was talking about covid in November. He was ahead of almost everyone. I'll never forget that.
WOW, Mentour Pilot is probably the best and most serious TH-cam channel about plane crashes in english language, now you got more credibility 👍
interestingly, he just uploaded a video about a potential problem with the CFM Leap engines used on multiple planes, which he feels the FAA is not taking a serious enough stance on.
Makes you wonder if a society that practiced "An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" would have these same problems. So many lives lost because of "It's not MY problem."
I was working at a railway crossing, monitoring movement across it, as there had been a fatal crash there. I got a message from another work colleague about the apparent accident of a plane crashing into the World Trade Centre, it was only later after the second we discovered it was a terror attack.
Rick Rescorla also warned about the possibility of planes striking the WTC.
God bless him. He made people do drills because he thought the next time if anything were to happen, it would be in the air. He saved many lives despite losing his ❤😢🙏
@triciajohansen7124 He wore many hats and multiple uniforms throughout his life. War hero. Disaster hero. He served his home country then came to America, serving his new country alongside Lt. Colonel Hal Moore and Sergeant Major Basil Plumley in the 7th Air Cavalry Division during the first major battle of the Vietnam War.
@@KageNoTora74indeed he did.
I remember a lot of these. Bernie, Katrina, dc-11 engine, 2008 crash, Challenger, 911. I know exactly where I was for 9/11 and didn't understand exactly what was going on for a few days since I was a middle school kid at the time.
The PBS Frontline episode "The man who knew" (posted on YT) is about John O'Neill, and it's stellar. So was he
Turkish 981 is far worse than just the memo. There was an incident in 1972, the Windsor incident. Luckily all on board survived but McDonnell Douglas asked the FAA not to put out an airworthiness directive so it wouldn't affect sales. When you realize how much McDonnell Douglas management took control of Boeing, the Max issues start to make a lot more sense.
The Challenger is proof that politicians should NEVER be allowed to overrule scientists... On ANY subject.
1:28 To be Fair who doesn't enjoy watching Billionaires get ripped off?
Most of them weren't billionaires .
@@user-em6ie2be7x I got over that kind of childish jealousy by the time I was about 10. I don't care about billionaires any more than they care about me.
Madoff's wealthy clients probably turned out fine. It was the people who lost a few thousand dollars, who only had a few thousand dollars to lose, they were the ones who really got screwed. Not to mention the New England school district that invested its pension fund with him
I'm a former NO resident, the governor of Louisiana at that time was Blanco. She didn't ask for help from the Federal government. 🤬
Kind of ironic that the guy that warned about 9/11 quit the FBI to work at the WTC and ultimately died there.
I was working in a building next to busy airport on 9/11. We gathered around a coworker's computer, watching reporting unfold. They sent us all home and as I drove through the city on the way home, I remember looking up, wondering if I was going to see an airplane heading towards one of our buildings. Going to work for the next few days was weird because it was so quiet, with the airport shut down.
I was also at work the morning of the Challenger explosion and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Listening to that clip of Boijoly saying that in the go-no go meeting they were told to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that there was a problem, I was shocked. That's backwards. I know you can't prove a negative, but proof "beyond a shadow of a doubt" in a situation like that is almost horrifying.
Thanks for sharing your personal experience. It's a powerful reflection on those events.
The engineer warning about the Challenger said it was up to them to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it wasn't safe to move forward with the launch. That's so backwards!!! It should have been proven beyond that shadow that it *_was_* safe to launch!
Correct. Which was a direct result of being told to take off their engineering hats and put on their management hats. Might as have have told them to close their eyes, turn their heads away and cross their fingers.
Half of the country warned us about the disaster we have now and no one listened.
😢
Yeah glad it's over with lol
Biden was pretty terrible, Lucky someone who wants to remove the corrupt deep state is in charge now.
When 9/11 occurred I was in a hospital in HK with my wife while our daughter was being born. We saw the coverage on TV and actually thought it was a TV show.
I had just arrived home from my college classes on the morning of the shuttle disaster to get lunch and head to my afternoon job and saw on TV. I'm very glad I 1) wasn't a child watching the launch in school because curriculum was following the teacher on board, and, 2) wasn't a parent of that child.
Wow. I remember very well where I was and what I was doing on 9-11.
Foch believed the Treaty of Versaille should have been more harsh on Germany? The treaty was already WAAAAYYY too harsh on Germany, which pretty much set the precedent for WWII. Germany had to accept FULL responsibility for WWI, which was FALSE. Germany was definitely PARTIALLY responsible, as much as several other countries, but it was certainly not FULLY responsible. Fact about WWI is that there was an arms race and a complex web of alliances, so as a result, everyone in Europe was eager to look for a fight, not just Germany. In fact, Germany didnt even START the war, Serbia and Austria-Hungary did.
Wow, I never knew how closely the actor playing Captain Edward Smith actually resembled him.
I always feel like the fallen would just be shaking their heads preparing for comforting welcomes when we go to the other side. We're gonna be so mad at ourselves soon if not already.
It was a snow day, so I was home from school, cleaning my room, when the Challenger went.
I had pinkeye, so I couldn't travel for work, and in the family room with my infant kids watching Barney when my father-in-law called to see if i was OK. He asked if I was watching TV and I said, "yes, but it's Barney." He told me to turn to any other channel.
There are times in your life, markers, that you will always remember where you were and what you were doing. The assassination of JFK (I wasn't born yet, so I don't remember that one), the death of Princess Di (I went to store to get something, and there it was on the front page of the newspaper--I went home and told my wife, we were both in shock).
Sometimes, if you're lucky, these markers will be happy times. I remember watching the NY Rangers win the Stanley Cup. I was in front of my TV in Buffalo, and with about two minutes left in the game, I picked up my phone and called my father. We've shared being Ranger's fans my whole life. He said, "Hello, Rick." I said, "Hello, Dad." We sat in silence as the clock ticked down. We each watched the Cup get handed to Mark Messier and get passed to a few players. I said, "I love you, Dad." He said, "I love you, too." and we hung up. I'll never forget that moment.
That French general was the most interesting one. Not only predicted that the Treaty of Versailles wouldn't work but also called the exact time scale of the failure accurately.
For 9/11 was I was 7 going on 8 years old, I was in school in Greenwich Village NYC, they rushed us all down to the basement/cafeteria, we were all told to color, talk and play or whatever, eat our lunch and not to ask questions. We overhead from 8th graders that there was an attack on the World Trade Center NO further details, a kid in my class his mom worked there and he was in tears the entire time, freaking out. My mom worked for NYU hospital and being fluent in Spanish was called to be an emergency translator. I was the LAST kid to go home that day at about 5 or 6 pm, the teachers were VERY POd that I hadn't been picked up, my mom needed to provide proof of where she lived and that I went to school where I did because there were checkpoints throughout the city and you needed to have a damn good reason to be going outside. I remember on our walk home before you could see the towers from a particular point on the walk, I remember just... not seeing them, there being dust and it just looked off.
The USGS tried to warn residents in May 1980 around Mount St. Helens that an eruption was imminent, but most residents, Harry Truman, most notably, ignored the warnings.
There’s always the issue of money. Hurricane Katrina is an example. It cost billions of dollars and many lives because they wanted to save only millions of dollars on flood defences.
Moche the Beadle escaped from the camps and tried to warn the village before WW2 ...they dismissed him as just being crazy.
18% return wasn’t a tip off?
People were/are too gullible unfortunately.
They apparently had never heard of the concept that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Renewable energy is definitely a good thing, but finding efficient means of MAKING that renewable energy is the difficult part
Yeah I'm not okay with using cobalt and lithium from slave mines in Africa but liberals love it
The rich people in power makes it difficult . Someone had a plan to make California the starting point on making hydrogen large scale to replace oil using solar and wind power as the power source to convert water to hydrogen . The American news media wouldn't go near his plan because big oil is one of the main controllers of America .
Another thing about the Titanic is that the rivets were faulty! They were prone to snapping.
Its sister ship RMS Olympic had caused the dozens of rivets to snap in a brush with another ship, but no one looked into it at the time.
With the faulty rivets the titanic was practicy doomed.
For the Challenger Disaster I was in KIndergarten at Encanto Elementary
For 9/11 I was waiting for my favourite MMO to come back up after a patch.
Great story, please tell us more of your adventures.
How could you forget all about *JOR-EL* from the late planet Krypton?
One warning that's getting ignored is the inevitably of a killer asteroid hitting earth. The vibe from the US government seems to be "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it". Yikes....
4 years from now AOC and Bernie Sanders will be looking at us and saying, “I told you so!!”
no, quite the other way around
How did AOC become a millionaire? Her salary is barely a fraction of her net worth.
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 If you're referring to the report that she has a net worth of $29M, that's been proven to be demonstrably FALSE.
Her most recent financial disclosure shows her assets included between $1,001 and $15,000 in a checking account, between $1,001 and $15,000 in a brokerage account, and between $1,001 and $15,000 invested in a 401K plan.
The disclosure also shows she owes the U.S. Department of Education between $15,001 and $50,000 in federal student loan debt, which she incurred between 2007 and 2010 as an undergraduate student at Boston University. Ocasio-Cortez in 2019 openly referenced owing more than $20,000 in student loans.

What about Russian cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov, who knew the earth orbiting capsule he was gonna be in was incredibly unsafe to be in? Even tho he and others knew it wasnt safe, he still chose to go on the mission because the backup pilot was a close friend of his and he didnt want him to die. Apparently as the capsule was descending and the parachutes failed to open, it was heard on the radio that he was cursing everybody out who were responsible for putting him on that raggedy spaceship.
This is the outcome when people don't heed to warning signs.
Not to mention, the coal stores were on fire before the iceberg struck the structurally weakened steel.
I was 19 on 9/11 when my mother told me a plane hit a building didnt know it was a commercial passenger plane (747,etc) or it hit the World Trade Center either. It ruined my chances of a decent national/international flight forever.
imagine not listening to your counter terrorism team 💀, like whats the point of having a counter terrorism team if you are not going to listen to them?
I remember where I was when warnings of WW2 happened. I was not born.
You remember things that occurred before you were born?
Oh good lord.
To an extent, I’m glad Teslas words went unheeded. We now know that “renewables”, with nuclear being the exception, cause irreparable and irreversible harm to the environment.

I do remember where I was for the last one, I can't say which one, because of, you know, youtube. They would just delete it, they've done it to me everytime.
....Anyway, I was laying in bed with a broken leg, which I only broke the week before, listening to Kirk, Mark and Lopez morning show on 98Rock (Baltimore). Lopez said something about reports of a plane crashed in New York City, possibly due to fog(or something). After a few minutes I finally decided to get up and go watch the tv for any news of it, which is when I saw the second one live.
Seriously youtube, it's effed up deleting comments simply just _mentioning_ certain events
You guys need to reign in your censorship bots, or people, or whoever
They should have listened to Stanley Adams about The Titanic but I guess they thought they knew better
There is always the one guy who tries to warn everyone else that nobody listens to. When will people ever learn.
9:05 They say this while showing film of non fossil fuels burning. All you see there is water vapor. Not a good visual.
As someone from near Southampton, please for the love of god stop claiming it was claimed to be unsinkable before it sank, it wasn't
Who has Claimed this? What relevance has You being from near Southampton got to do with this?
@rolandtomassi3486 Local History it's been mentored countless times on our local news due to how many stories there are, 1/3 of deaths were from Southampton alone, then theres more from near by, and it was said in this video & pretty much any video it's mentioned. It was only dubbed "unsinkable" after the fact.
I call it the 'Man-Bear-Pig Syndrome'. Some dude warns the relevant authorities, but they don't take him seriously, and disaster happens.
These are all so infuriating to learn about. I mean, so much blood and tragedy because a few wanted glory and fame.
She’s back!!!
This is what happens when experts in their fields are ignored or silenced.
Had the Titanic hit the iceberg headon, it probably would not have sank.
The cargo door coming off the Turkish DC 10 plane would not have happened if the FAA had done their and heeded the recommendations of the NTSB as that was the 2nd time a cargo door had come off a DC 10 while climbing. The first time was 2 years earlier on an American flight when it was crossing Windsor Ontario, heading to New York from Detroit. The pilot managed to land the plane safely with no casualties as it had much less people on board, thus creating a lot less damage when the door blew off. Neither accident would have happened if McDonnell Douglas had corrected the design flaw BEFORE it went into production. (Mayday: Air Disaster has an episode of the Turkish tragedy and its aftermath.) It's sad to think that if any of these people were listened to how different things would have been. There would not have been so much death and/or financial losses.

It costs money and brain cells to avert disaster. Even look at the oil rig, Deepwater Horizon, yes I did watch the movie but the whole place was a ticking timebomb. BP but it fell on deaf ears. Then there was Aberfan disaster in Wales. Mine workers and residents warned the company owners for years about the spoil tip being on top of a spring that was slowly eroding the tip. Again it fell on deaf ears, the spoil tip caused an avalanche killing 116 children and 28 adults. The coal company laughed because no one was sacked or demoted, but they did offer a generous £500 in compensation to each greaving family then got pissy when the families turned it down because "the families were being too greedy". Sorry, the Aberfan story greatly upsets me.
I would actually submit that The Tragically Hip predicted Hurricane Katrina way back in Nov 1989 when they released the song "New Orleans Is Sinking." Sorry, Ivor. Missed it by 10 years.

I tried to warn my family about 9/11 unfortunately they didn't want to believe a 5 year old at the time. I was woken up around 10pm on September 10th, 2001, due to a nightmare involving my family driving around New York in the middle of the night, and airplanes were hitting the Twin Towers. Luckily, both me and my family survived the 9/11 terrorist attack.
