Well, you missed a LOT of tragedies but if you're going to load more parts, that's good. Also, you may want to listen to the video before uploading, to correct mispronunciations like for Nova Scotia, Chernobyl and Carpathia
You should’ve covered the Nanjing Massacre. This is quite possibly one of the worst and most overlooked tragedies in human history. In Japan’s invasion of China during WW2, they committed several atrocities against the Chinese, indiscriminately between civilians and soldiers. Estimates say 200,000 civilians were murdered. Up to 80,000 women and children were raped, and 30-40K prisoners of war were executed. Many of the war crimes Japan committed were displayed as “for fun” including mass arson, a pregnant woman’s stomach being cut open and extracting the child, mass artillery fire on civilian villages, two Japanese officers competing to see who could kill 100 people by sword fastest (this was covered like a sporting event), and so many more violent and horrific events. It could honestly warrant its own video.
@yuyooyuzi6427 they bayonet people. But literally vaporizing 2 entire cities. It caused more deaths than this and leveled all buildings. Yes, when you add up the tragedies, it makes it less but still. There both really bad
I once heard a story about a woman who survived the bombing of Hiroshima, and she wandered around the rubbled ruins of Hiroshima, and heard a clicking sound, and she saw a man running, with each footstep she heard a click like he was wearing tap dancing shoes, but he wasn’t wearing shoes The click came from the bones of his feet, which were exposed due to his skin on the foot being ripped away That was one of the craziest stories I ever heard
@@madeleinebrett-matthewson71421maybe before he made this video he should have looked up how to pronounce it no hate to the guy but if your gonna make a video on this stuff at least pronounce the stuff right
My mom actually saw the Challenger blow up. Her school had it on tv as they watched the launch live. Imagine the class’s reaction when they watched 7 people and millions of dollars go up in flames within seconds.
my mom was young and definitely in class. i forgot what she’s said about it but i’m pretty sure she wanted to be a teacher ever since she was little so it must’ve been even more terrifying as a little kid to watch. I remember when I was little and I wanted to be an astronaut and a teacher, learning about this scared me so much.
I live 45 minutes away from Columbine, I knew Rachell Scott, she was the first person killed in the Columbine shootings. I also know someone who survived the shooting. School shootings are devastating and my heart sinks every time I think about how often they happen and specifically columbine.
My school talked about her. We all did the Rachel Scott pledge. We stoped during covid but i rember tearing up when during it. Its was heart breaking to hear about it as an 8th grader.
Generally a time of Easter for Christians and Ramadan for Muslim worshippers. Many other faiths have prominent religious festivals keeping them busy and happy. So no time for these sad stories. Redirection and distractions..people go on vacations,time with family and such.

Thank you for not entirely putting the blame on White Star Line for the lack of lifeboats on the Titanic, and clarifying that it was just the standards of the time unlike everybody else. Also huge props for covering the surprisingly obscure Halifax disaster. You earned a like and sub
There’s so many disasters but more non-US related ones would be good to represent. Sewol Ferry, Sampoong Dept Store, and Itaewon crowd crush are just a few from one country that made international headlines.
gosh i remember the Itaewon crush. i was seeing a kpop group in Toronto on the 30th and 31st. the news was just so sad, the crowd was being extra cautious that night, never seen a more organized lineup by fans before. the members of the group looked pretty sad, i think they may have known the one trainee who passed in it. they requested that we not post any photos or videos of the concert until the official mourning period was done. as far as i could see, people really respected that. the group has a pretty small fanbase (at the time) so everyone knew everyone. it was rough.
Yeah I agree, while I did enjoy the video, this definitely had bias when it came toward US tragedies. I wish more non-US related events were represented.
Things I’d like to see mentioned in Part 2: 1. Najing Rape 2. Paris Bombings 3. Space Shuttle Columbia disintegration 4. JFK assassination 5. Yangtze River Floods 6. The Gulags of the USSR 7. Tenerife Airport Disaster 8. The battle of Stalingrad 9. Dresden Firestorm 10. Unit 731
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami is especially heartbreaking because a considerable amount of the deceased were tourists that were spending the Christmas holidays in the warmer weather of countries such as Thailand and Indonesia.
Should've brought up the 2019 Christchurch Shootings, the guy killed 51 people and injured 48 in a period of 30 minutes driving to two locations all while live streaming on a GoPro attached to his helmet. This shooter inspired currently 7-8 people and multiple threats to my knowledge. When adding up the death toll from the copycats, around 50 people died.
as a person who lives in New Milford CT, around 30 miles near Sandy Hook, it was a tragedy and every time at school when there was a lockdown drill our teachers always would talk about sandy hook after
Ik a lot of people probably don’t know about it but the triangle factory fire made a huge impact on fire safety and factory worker regulations. It really doesn’t get the recognition it deserves.

Plus why Titanic is sinking by stearn? It was supposed to sink by bow. Please watch Ocean liner design, he gives a detailed info how everything happened to the Titanic
The crazy thing about the titanic is it “COULD” fully stay afloat and finish the voyage with 4 holds COMPLETELY full of water, the iceberg opened the side of the ship like a tin can and breached over 300 feet and 4 watertight compartments within seconds. All of the compartment were still open at the time of collision and were ordered shut, though most of the watertight compartments couldn’t be closed because the initial contact bent and wedged the doors on their tracks rendering them completely useless. If the compartments were ordered shut at night the titanic would’ve been in critical condition but not foundered.
I was a little kid when the Boston Marathon bombing happened. my family literally was planning to meet up with friends right nearby where the bomb went off. I got lucky because I had a fever that day, and my family decided not to go.
You just blow in from Stupid Town? Giving an overview of well known tragedies in no way suggests any of those tragedies are being categorized with the same degree of impact.
@@Terrxrzecke161 it’s one of the most notorious examples in modern culture given the coverage leading up to and broadcast the day of launch, of course it’s significant. Not every tragedy has to have hundreds of thousands of victims for the catastrophic impact of it to enter the public conscience.

No. I wasnt born when challenger was blown but it affected so much people.. I know it isnt as bad as the holocaust but the amount of people that got affected by it is a catastrophe for itself. Like do you hear about the stories of Christa McCauliffe?
@@mabybeeits stupid to say one the top 22 most devastating tragedies had only 7 deaths vs holocaust of 6,000,000+ deaths or hiroshima 140,000 deaths. The video doesnt even cover all the other genocides. Doesn’t cover the US secret carpet bombing of cambodia. Over 500,000 tons were dropped on neighboring villagers just to flex on north vietnam. Hiroshima’s Nuke only had 15,000 tons. The US literally dropped the equivalent of 30+ nukes just to show off. This destabilization led to the cambodian genocide of 2-3million deaths. Way more devastating than 7 people dying. There’s also the Anfal campaign where the US supplied Saddam with chemical weapons to fight Iran. Saddam mass dropped these nerve agents to ethnically cleanse entire villages of kurds. Innocent kurds that sided with Iran to protest for their own independent country. He gassed over 100,000 kurdish villagers all funded by the US. We don’t talk about those tragedies? Yet we talk about 7 US citizens dying as being more important than 2,000,000 cambodians being massacred or 100,000 kurds being gassed. Lol
The nearest ship that could assist was the Californian but they failed to respond due to the Marconi officer going to sleep and the captain saying “if he was in distress the rockets would be red”( roughly what he said)
But in maritime flares, colors don't really matter during that time. What did matter was the flares going off at the wrong time. In order to single a ship that you need help, you need to set the flares off in a set amount time, I think, like a minute, but they set them off every 5 minutes and so they were very confused about it. Also the California was surrounded by icebergs, so they didn't want to risk sinking them selfs. Also, the carpathia, the ship that rescued the survivors of the titanic, almost hit an iceberg too when it was going to the titanic.
In fact no, the Californian was off because they were not going to continue due to the ice structures that had been generated, two hours before the Titanic accident the Californian warned about the ice that had formed but the communicator told him to shut up and let him work, so the Californian turned off engines and communications, no one found out about the sinking until they arrived in New York
@Emi.fisherman Well, he told California to shut up because he was very tired because he been up for almost 24 hours and he was sending a message that was very far away and he turned up volume to hear the replies but the California interrupted the Titanic and because the volume was all the way up, it was very loud in his ears. So image you been up for 24 hours and a loud beeping sound goes in your ears
For oil related disasters I think Piper Alpha would come before Deepwater Horizon, not to downplay Deepwater Horizon at all, it was an awful tragedy, but more people died on Piper Alpha (167) and it had a massive effect on the industry and still shapes a lot of the way the industry does things to this day. I guess the environmental impact of Deepwater Horizon was significantly higher though.
about the titanic, it sank because it the water breached five water tight compartments but she could only stay afloat with four flooded not because the water tight doors didn't reach high enough.
@@ThatOnePlatypusGuy they were high enough, water won’t go above the waterline surface on a flooded ship, that’s basic laws of physics. The thing that did her in was too many flooded compartments.
it's already US-Centric video, maybe have it as one or 2 things in America but i'm sorry not everything in the world happens in the USA, They literally didn't even include the worst tragedies, just a ton of random American Ones.
As an Irish person, I asked why the Titanic Museum in our country isn’t as big as the one in America. My teacher then proceeded to remind us that despite the ship being large for it’s days, it became a disaster and if someone asks, our ancestors didn’t make it.
Hundreds of thousands of children in the USA, including my parents, watched the challenger blow up live on TV. It’s one of those things that you remember exactly wheee you were.
I live in the town the explosives on the Mont-Blanc were made in. For years people in Trenton had fears of the plant suffering some kind of explosion or accident similar to the Halifax explosion. When the ships collided and the Mont-Blanc exploded, the fears were intensified in Trenton. Not even a year later, on Thanksgiving while majority of the workers went home, several explosions rocked the plant. They were so loud and powerful, it shattered windows across town and caused a panic. People began to flee in mass numbers to neighbouring towns like Belleville and Brighton. The official record recounts that there were no casualties, as the plant was mainly empty that night. But depending on who you talk in the area, they may tell you that 2 brothers from Port Hope actually passed in the plant. But it's unconfirmed and rumors really.
The title of this video should instead be "most well-known tragedies " or "well-publicized tragedies," as there have been many other tragic events that claimed more lives and caused greater devastation but are not as deeply ingrained in Western culture. 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, Wolyn massacre, Unit 731 and Rwandan genocide are a couple examples that come to mind, but there are many others.
its still baffling to me that those Country Music Fans (we can all just assume the majority of their political alignment)-the victims and those directly affected by the Las Vegas shooting wouldn't wake up to gun control laws at all? if anything double down on their gun-loving.
It's not about whether or not Americans love guns. The right to bear arms is a constitutionally protected RIGHT of the people in America. Taking away Constitutional rights out of fear opens the door for any one of them to be taken. On a more practical note, there are about 500 million guns already in the United States, even if you banned ALL guns tomorrow, you'd never peacefully collect every one of them. It's simply too late for that in this country. Banning ALL guns is the only meaningful way you could solve the issue with gun legislation, and that simply isn't possible in the US. There are a number of things we could do to help reduce the number of people killed in mass shooting events, but so far no one seems to agree on what should be done. I don't believe banning guns is possible or would even solve the issue at this point, but we haven't tried it. That said, we should be willing to try anything, even if some don't believe it would work...I'm willing to give up my firearms if it would help prevent children from being gunned down at school.
Because it's a mental health issue, not a gun control issue. Anyone can get a gun while in a stable condition, but one bad day can break you and cause you to snap
The thing is, Las Vegas was not committed with a bumpstock-fitted AR-15. The people who support gun rights are far more concerned for what governments do AFTER disarming the population. That’s how things like the Holodomor and H*locaust happen.
@@tenacious645I would not give up anything. I’ve come to the realization that the reason politicians want to ban firearms so strongly, is so we can’t resist them when they succeed in their tyranny.
He includes a bunch of school shootings but excludes the Holodomor, the Armenian Genocide, the Bosnian Genocide and Mao's Grest leap forward, the latter of which had up to 50 million murdered. Not saying he had to include them all but man do they often get neglected in these lists considering they're on the same scale as the holocaust or multiple times worse.
im sorry to be a nerd but id replace the titanic with wilhelm gustloff, as 9000 people died aboard instead of 1550 im not saying titanic wasnt a tragedy, but the gustloff was worse
More deadly school incidents: Peshawar school massacre: 149 dead, caused by the taliban. Beslan school siege: 334 dead, 800+ injuries, caused by chechen militants storming the school and taking children and staff as hostages, bombing it. Santa Marìa School massacre: 2000+ dead, caused by chilean army massacring students and staff in sight. (Correct me if im wrong)
"most devastating" and the shipwreck you chose is the Titanic??? it's not even the most devastating peacetime shipping disaster. Someday the Wilhelm Gustloff will get the attention it deserves.

5:09 the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not “tragedies”, and the only controversial part is that people still believe that it was the sole reason the war ended. The invasion of Manchuria was much more of an existential crisis, as even the Japanese High Command admitted that the Soviets were so much scarier than 2 bombs that did less damage than the average nightly firebombing run on Tokyo. You want to talk about a tragedy? The r*pe of Nanjing was objectively worse than the nukes, causing more casualties than both nukes combined. People retroactively believe the nukes are bad because of the Fallout series painting the idea that nukes cause irradiated hellscapes. You can still visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki today because the only way a nuke can cause such damage is if it detonates on impact. The nukes dropped on Japan were set to air burst, which minimized the risk of radioactive contamination.
so, school children extremely burned, and civilians literally being carbonized is completely fine because of the military's action? so, should we kill school children because of war crimes in the middle east?
Leopold 2 claimed around 10 millions lives in the Congo directly and indirectly, probably biggest crime against humanity to this day but didn't make in the list. Many people don't even know about it

But in maritime flares, colors don't really matter during that time. What did matter was the flares going off at the wrong time. In order to single a ship that you need help, you need to set the flares off in a set amount time, I think, like a minute, but they set them off every 5 minutes and so they were very confused about it. Also the California was surrounded by icebergs, so they didn't want to risk sinking them selfs. Also, the carpathia, the ship that rescued the survivors of the titanic, almost hit an iceberg too when it was going to the titanic.
@@Lucas-no6fd hm well ya learn somin new everyday thanks for the extra info :)
@@NewYorkRangersFan93 ya
In fact no, the Californian was off because they were not going to continue due to the ice structures that had been generated, two hours before the Titanic accident the Californian warned about the ice that had formed but the communicator told him to shut up and let him work, so the Californian turned off engines and communications, no one found out about the sinking until they arrived in New York
@Emi.fisherman Well, he told California to shut up because he was very tired because he been up for almost 24 hours and he was sending a message that was very far away and he turned up volume to hear the replies but the California interrupted the Titanic and because the volume was all the way up, it was very loud in his ears. So image you been up for 24 hours and a loud beeping sound goes in your ears
For oil related disasters I think Piper Alpha would come before Deepwater Horizon, not to downplay Deepwater Horizon at all, it was an awful tragedy, but more people died on Piper Alpha (167) and it had a massive effect on the industry and still shapes a lot of the way the industry does things to this day. I guess the environmental impact of Deepwater Horizon was significantly higher though.
Dawg i came from Sambucha but these videos are genuinely amazing
thank you!!
@@jaydonehistory no Problem brother, keep your head high and I subscribed to all channels you had provided links for, can't wait for the new uploads
about the titanic, it sank because it the water breached five water tight compartments but she could only stay afloat with four flooded not because the water tight doors didn't reach high enough.
The compartments did reach high enough, it was more due to 6 compartments being flooded that did her in.
Also, the damage on the titanic was so bad that even Costa Concordia, a modern-day cruise ship, had it far better than what the titanic had
The bulkheads weren't high enough. The water tipped over them, going further and further back.
@@ThatOnePlatypusGuy they were high enough, water won’t go above the waterline surface on a flooded ship, that’s basic laws of physics. The thing that did her in was too many flooded compartments.
@@SQUAREHEADSAM1912only 5 were flooded
the 2007, April 16th massacre at Virginia Tech is the deadliest school shooting in America. You should have included that
it's already US-Centric video, maybe have it as one or 2 things in America but i'm sorry not everything in the world happens in the USA, They literally didn't even include the worst tragedies, just a ton of random American Ones.

Can you imagine the sheer anxiety that struck New Yorkers when they heard an airplane fly over them in the months following 9/11?
Is anyone else noticing a trend with April? 🤨
Titanic...was definitely NOT one of the deadliest accidents at sea. Not mentioning Wilhelm Gustloff's name, or anything.
Real, but the United States and the Soviet Union silenced that news because it was a Nazi ship

love your work! would love to see videos on events that drastically changed the course of our civilization!
40 meter high waves… that would make me shit my pants
As an Irish person, I asked why the Titanic Museum in our country isn’t as big as the one in America. My teacher then proceeded to remind us that despite the ship being large for it’s days, it became a disaster and if someone asks, our ancestors didn’t make it.
Surprised you didn''t cover the Oklahoma City bombing in this.
Good video though!
Hundreds of thousands of children in the USA, including my parents, watched the challenger blow up live on TV. It’s one of those things that you remember exactly wheee you were.
Why these all occurring around my birthday 💀
Unit 731 and the Nanjing massacre should definitely be on this list. Over 600,000 Chinese's lives were lost in just those two tragedies
All I can remember about the Columbine school shooting is that Pumped up Kicks by Foster The People became the “School Shooting” song.
The song is literally about school shootings soooo
I live in the town the explosives on the Mont-Blanc were made in. For years people in Trenton had fears of the plant suffering some kind of explosion or accident similar to the Halifax explosion. When the ships collided and the Mont-Blanc exploded, the fears were intensified in Trenton. Not even a year later, on Thanksgiving while majority of the workers went home, several explosions rocked the plant. They were so loud and powerful, it shattered windows across town and caused a panic. People began to flee in mass numbers to neighbouring towns like Belleville and Brighton.
The official record recounts that there were no casualties, as the plant was mainly empty that night. But depending on who you talk in the area, they may tell you that 2 brothers from Port Hope actually passed in the plant. But it's unconfirmed and rumors really.
As a Haligonian, I choked on my donair hearing that pronunciation of Nova Scotia. Sir...
me too :(

It's kinda wild that the 3 most devastating disasters in Japan involve some a type of nuclear disasters
Where’s the Lusitania in this video…
But other than that pretty good.
really great video! i think it serves as a jumping off point for interest/further research
There’s gotta be something we can do to get this guy more views and subs.
The title of this video should instead be "most well-known tragedies " or "well-publicized tragedies," as there have been many other tragic events that claimed more lives and caused greater devastation but are not as deeply ingrained in Western culture.
2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, Wolyn massacre, Unit 731 and Rwandan genocide are a couple examples that come to mind, but there are many others.
you should have included the jim jones kool aid incident
Flavor Aid but yeah, Jonestown was a massive disaster in 78

Great video 👍I’d suggest a slight pause, and maybe a graphic in between topics/tragedies for your next video . Keep it up 👍
its still baffling to me that those Country Music Fans (we can all just assume the majority of their political alignment)-the victims and those directly affected by the Las Vegas shooting wouldn't wake up to gun control laws at all? if anything double down on their gun-loving.
It's not about whether or not Americans love guns. The right to bear arms is a constitutionally protected RIGHT of the people in America. Taking away Constitutional rights out of fear opens the door for any one of them to be taken. On a more practical note, there are about 500 million guns already in the United States, even if you banned ALL guns tomorrow, you'd never peacefully collect every one of them. It's simply too late for that in this country. Banning ALL guns is the only meaningful way you could solve the issue with gun legislation, and that simply isn't possible in the US. There are a number of things we could do to help reduce the number of people killed in mass shooting events, but so far no one seems to agree on what should be done. I don't believe banning guns is possible or would even solve the issue at this point, but we haven't tried it. That said, we should be willing to try anything, even if some don't believe it would work...I'm willing to give up my firearms if it would help prevent children from being gunned down at school.
@@tenacious645the best argument ive seen in the gun control discussion, 100% agree
Because it's a mental health issue, not a gun control issue. Anyone can get a gun while in a stable condition, but one bad day can break you and cause you to snap
The thing is, Las Vegas was not committed with a bumpstock-fitted AR-15. The people who support gun rights are far more concerned for what governments do AFTER disarming the population. That’s how things like the Holodomor and H*locaust happen.
@@tenacious645I would not give up anything. I’ve come to the realization that the reason politicians want to ban firearms so strongly, is so we can’t resist them when they succeed in their tyranny.
THIS. GUY. NEEDS. MORE. SUBS!!!!!
(Minus few) These are mostly American tragedies, no where close to the most devastating tragedies of all time
Where do the most devastating tragedies happen then? 😂😂😂
Beirut explosion?
Pearl Harbour?
Tenerife disaster?
Flight 123?
He includes a bunch of school shootings but excludes the Holodomor, the Armenian Genocide, the Bosnian Genocide and Mao's Grest leap forward, the latter of which had up to 50 million murdered. Not saying he had to include them all but man do they often get neglected in these lists considering they're on the same scale as the holocaust or multiple times worse.
@@CalzRants It's a US-Centric Video, not surprised tbh. They think everything in the world is going on in USA

"most devastating" and the shipwreck you chose is the Titanic??? it's not even the most devastating peacetime shipping disaster.
Someday the Wilhelm Gustloff will get the attention it deserves.
Exactly.
Wasnt the titani the deadliest shipwreck in PEACETIME?
The titanic was not built by white star line. It was owned by them, but built by Harland and wolf in Belfast

Awesome video 😊
5:09 the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not “tragedies”, and the only controversial part is that people still believe that it was the sole reason the war ended.
The invasion of Manchuria was much more of an existential crisis, as even the Japanese High Command admitted that the Soviets were so much scarier than 2 bombs that did less damage than the average nightly firebombing run on Tokyo.
You want to talk about a tragedy? The r*pe of Nanjing was objectively worse than the nukes, causing more casualties than both nukes combined. People retroactively believe the nukes are bad because of the Fallout series painting the idea that nukes cause irradiated hellscapes. You can still visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki today because the only way a nuke can cause such damage is if it detonates on impact. The nukes dropped on Japan were set to air burst, which minimized the risk of radioactive contamination.
