  • What happened that day in Central Park was one of the most terrifying moments in my life but I think this story is important to share. I really thought I was going to die and felt so vulnerable but I'm so grateful to the woman who helped my mom and I get out safely. Spread love and kindness, everyone!

    That honestly sounds absolutely terrifying for a sighted person, I can't even comprehend how terrifying it must've been when you can't see anything. I'm so glad you got out safely.

      I Live in New York and never heard anything about this.The Media is no longer telling us truths. For them to have remained silent about this makes me automatically know it was likely a Pro President Trump thing. Though He doesn't have things in New York City because there is too much violence and hate directed at him. He wouldn't endanger people. I'm stumped as to when & what the festival was for.

      I took my sons to California's Great America for Halloween this year. We had just gotten to the point where the line enters a queue (defined by waist high temporary barriers of the type sometimes called "bike rack barriers"), when a stampede started inside the park. Apparently, there was a fight and someone nearby yelled "Shooter!", which was a terrible idea, so soon after the Gilroy Garlic festival shooting. Suddenly, the ticket plaza flooded with people running, shouting, and jumping turnstiles. Then, the crowd who were in the queue started trying to jump the barriers, tipping them over and rushing toward us. I grabbed both of my boys by their coat collars, corralling them, helping them jump the cement barriers (meant to prevent cars from driving into the ticket plaza) and hustling them forward, ahead of the panicked stampede. Until we had covered 50 yards, or so, I wondered whether we would be overtaken and trampled and I especially feared for my boys. I also wondered whether, or when, we were going to begin hearing gunshots.
      As traumatic as that was, I made a point of taking them back to the park for the Christmas lights a few weeks later. It was much less crowded and I felt it was important for our boys, to go back and have a positive experience there. Somehow, we have to figure out a way to keep panic from becoming more dangerous than an actual attack.

I’m writing this at about 10 am, but for you it would be around 11 am. So anyway, I’m glad that someone was being sensible about her not being dramatic at all, because I’m pretty sure that most of the people who ran were sighted, and they were still scared tremendously. Hope you have a good day.

      @eleanorbrockett6554 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      I completely agree. When we hear about these things on the news we grow used to the idea that this happens we can often assume the worst. If everyone just starts running and screaming and someone shouts 'run' to you, then you are obviously going to freak out and panic. If 10,000 people start all running and stampeding towards you then it is really not that hard to lose all everyone you are with. People can be so insensitive sometimes...

    Now I worked security for over 10 years now, WHY would they be telling people to run. By telling people to run you are now preventing people from evacuating. You can tell them to keep moving, to move faster, but never utter the R word. As security they should have been providing instructions not inciting panic. More people get killed or injured because of panic then the actual situation.

      I’m so glad you wrote this. It seemed insane to me too. First that they were telling people RUN. And that they weren’t paying attention to the people in the crowd at all. I remember years back at a stadium concert a set of the bleachers had collapsed. And the security guys were telling people to get off the bleachers move away from them and stop running but just move away from the area. A guy had gotten hurt from the original accident but then got knocked down from people shoving and pushing to run away. Thank God security had stopped them because then they could see the guy on the ground. I remember hearing all about it on the local news. And even the news informed people don’t RUN just move thru safely so EMT’s can actually get in to help the injured or hurt people.

      Sadly, a lot of security at festivals are subcontracted out and the companies tend to run short and use temp workers that have no training, literally just bodies of people off the street that have no training. I ended up quitting a company due to this type of issue.
      I was posted at the side of a stage during a pride festival and a group had just left the stage. There was supposed to be another guard with me but they literally said "my shifts up I'm done" and left me there in this huge 7ft gap entrance to the back stage that we're supposed to be guarding. I ended up having to use my body to hold people back and one lady shoved passed me and got through, I couldnt go grab her because I had to stay at my post to make sure nobody else got through. The stage security came to me with the woman and yelled at me basically for letting her slip through. I told him off and yelled at him to help and he left me there alone because he was backstage security, aka he wanted to go be beside the talent tent. My relief for my post came about 10 mins in and helped me get people off of the gate and me.
      I dont work or go to festivals anymore for this reason. Its overwhelming

    Molly I was there too. It was one of the scariest things I have ever experienced. My boyfriend and I went to the Porta potty’s, and were waiting in line. I was about to be next to go to the bathroom but then I turn around and see THOUSANDS of people running towards me, my mind was racing all i could think about was the manchester bombing, las vegas shooting, etc. We ran as fast as we could, as did hundreds of people around us. Security guards were even opening the gates for us to climb through, we were running through branches and everything. Kids were crying on their phones calling their parents. It felt like everything was in slow motion. We made it out of Central park onto the streets and it was crazy. I was shaking. Everything you said and described is 100% how I felt about it too, you’re not alone. The media really down played it too. And i’m so glad you have a platform to talk about this. 💕

    This reminds me of something that happened in Times Square not too long ago. There was a motorcycle that backfired, sounding like gunshots and the same thing happened: everyone started running away, panicking, stampeding.
    I heard about this from a Twitter post and the woman who posted it was Canadian I believe and she said, about the United States “your entire country has PTSD.” And the thing is she’s not wrong (even though she was being hyperbolic but in any case mental health needs to be taken more seriously).

      I agree, because I remember a few years back, I was going to work and waiting at a bus stop downtown (and this is in Canada) and a popping sound happened across the street and I didn't react much, most people didn't, but a few reacted horribly. And one of the guys that had the bad reaction, said he could tell neither I, nor the others that didn't react have ever been in a violent situation involving guns because if we had we probably would have dropped to the ground or freaked out. And I didn't exactly understand the depth of that statement until I started hearing stories like Molly's and the event you described. So I agree with you.

    Close your eyes so that you can’t see anything at all.
    You hear someone say “Run!”. And then you can suddenly feel the force of ten thousand people running in your direction. After getting pushed around and separated from your own mother and your guide dog, you huddle next to strangers, and you still don’t know what the hell is happening. Then you hear gunshots. You get up and run in the direction your friend tells you to, through all the screaming people. And after all of that, you have to walk all the way home. And all this time, you can’t see a thing, with still no idea what happened.

Please tell him that I wish more people in the world were like him, and that he should be so proud. You should be proud Alexis, you are amazing and so is your brother.

    This made me so upset and was a real trigger to me, I was in a stampede when I was thirteen. I was pushed to the ground and trampled on, it was so terrifying and I seriously thought I was going to die. There was estimated that there was only 2,500-3,000 people there but due to this accident I am now classed as disabled due to the spin injury and damage to the whole right side of my body, if it wasn't for a cleaner who was there pulling me up from the ground I could have been so much worse. I am still in pain ever day after 6 years of physio, but that is now my life I have come to terms with that and with adjusting my lifestyle to make things easier. It's so traumatizing how everything changes so quickly, having to give up so many things as I physically can't do it without being in pain. I am so thankful to that man who helped me, I never even got his name and I wouldn't wish that experience on anyone.I feel so sorry that your mother, yourself and others had to go through that. I hope that you all are ok. X

    I got chills when you said, “Molly run!”
    I have PTSD from getting held against my will in a different state and sexually assaulted. No one knew where I was and neither did I. They tried to get me to take pills, they gave me a “present”, told me I was gonna be their pet and filmed the assault. They were really fucking sick. I escaped several hours later after they fell asleep and went to a house where the police were called and the 3 of the attackers were arrested and convicted for what they did and 2 of them got 17 years. One of them was a friend from High School, whom I’ve known for years, and he set it up and took me there and basically ruined my life. He was only charged for the restraint, because it was part of a plea deal. So he only got 7 years.
    It’ll be 3 years in September since it happened and I have trust issues, flashbacks, anxiety, am extremely more aware of my surroundings, always tell my mom where I’m going and allow her to track my phone. I even set up the sos emergency option on my iPhone, which I wish I had done before because they locked me out of my own phone so I couldn’t call for help. When I got it back in the police car I could see all the texts my family sent me and phone calls I missed, but couldn’t call them back... Even family from my home state called me. They knew what happened because I was able to get into my laptop and messaged my sister, and two friends who were up and told them to call the cops and told them the license plate number of their car I could barely see out a small window in the bathroom. I sent it to them before I escaped, just in case I didn’t make it...They threatened to torture me before, so I didn’t know what would happen if they caught me. It didn’t feel real and I was so fucking terrified. I still get scared of them finding me when they get out. I already moved once but I want to move again.
    We all were traumatized and my sister and mom would be so scared every time I leave the house. We still struggle with that, but we are almost back to normal again. Recently I went to a store across the street from the DMV I was going to, and browsed around to see what they had for their liquidation sale of the store. It’s in our small town and I went in, but lost service in there and never called. I was in there a good 20/30 minutes. As I walked out my sister pulls up fast slamming her brakes when she pulled up next to me and cussed me out crying. It’s moments like that I remember that, it wasn’t just me who was traumatized. I felt bad about it.
    I finally started trying to work as of last week and I’m starting to live a real normal life again! So it took time to heal, but I do have some what of a happy ending. I’m at least taking the steps to not letting what happened to me ruin my life anymore. Thank you for taking the time to read this. ♥️

      Which is ridiculous, because we know for a fact that stampedes and crushes can be deadly. I doubt that if this happened in the UK, that it would have been downplayed- they know all too well just how deadly a stampede/crush can be, and still have memorials for those that died in the Hillsborough disaster in 1989, where almost 100 people died and a further almost 800 were injured.
      And so when you remember stories like that, it really drives home how awful and wrong it is to downplay stampedes.

A blind woman who cant see whats happening that thought there was a shooting or a bombing. They need to think about her situation and what they would do if they were her before they make an action that everybody can see. I can't imagine what Molly went through. The fact that people helped her and that she is ok is truly a blessing from God. I've prayed for her before as soon as I found her. I pray that she will be ok if she is ever in a situation that being blind is a very big and dangerous situation. I hope that nobody ever has to go through a traumatizing experience ever in their life. But if a dangerous situation ever happens to anybody, I hope that God will bless your life and will give a blessing to every body around you.

    I was actually there with my brother and a couple of friends that night. It was absolutely traumatizing. We looked to our left after a long pause to hear people yelling "RUN, THEY'RE SHOOTING!!!". In the chaos we got separated from one of our friends and lost a lot of our belongings because we didn't have time to think or grab anything. I had also gotten bumped into and had fallen into a puddle of mud where I could not get up. My brother was trying to help me up as people were falling and stepping all over me. Finally I got up and covered my brother's body just like a "mama bear" to protect him from the "bullets" we thought we heard. We then approached an officer in riot gear and asked him what to do and he said just keep running. We climbed through a fence and scaled the side of a building to get out of the park safely. The people we were walking with were incredible- all asking if everyone was okay and staying positive and calm in order not to cause MORE panic than there already way. After RUNNING BLOCKS away and getting to safety we immediately called our parents so they could find out what was going on. We then found out it was not a shooting, but in that moment IT WAS a shooting. I have PTSD from this event and I never understood how much it would affect me until I fear going to public events because of what may happen. It also broke my heart that this did not get much (if any) media attention. It was real to the people who were there. THANK YOU for using your platform to share this experience.

Some people born blind also do hand gestures but not eye movements that much.

    When I was in eighth grade, there was a shooting outside of my school. We went into lockdown two minutes before the bell rang at the end of the day. No one knew what was happening except for the fact that it was real because of the time it happened. I remember thinking that I was going to die. That someone was inside the school bent on killing me and my peers. I remember hearing gunshots and police sirens and praying for my life. Then we went from lock down to lock in, meaning we could move, we just couldn't leave the classroom. While I was on the phone with my mom, an office administrator who had been standing guard at our door burst in screaming "get away from the windows! Get down!" We went back into lockdown. I was so terrified. At the time, none of us knew that the man firing the weapon was firing at the school and the hospital across the street. The panic was terrifying because nobody knew what was happening. It kept going for hours until a cop was severely injured in the process of a controlled crash to stop (and ultimately kill) the shooter. To this day, I am called a drama queen by people I tell the story to because "there wasn't really a shooter INSIDE of your school". But that doesn't change the trauma I experienced when I sincerely believed it was my last day on this Earth. Even though there were procedures and securities in place to protect me, it was still scary. Even though it wasn't quite what I thought it was at the moment, it left an imprint on me that has shaken me to the very core. I am going to be a junior in high school this year, and to this day, I still get anxiety over lock downs. I moved across the country after 8th grade, so no one here gets it. So Molly, I want you to know that I get it. That you're not crazy. That I totally understand what you went through. It is terrifying, and I can't imagine going through a possible shooting without the structure and safety procedures that I had during my experience. Don't ever doubt if you deserve to be unsettled by this experience. it is unrealistic to believe that someone can go through something like that and be unaffected. (sorry for the essay. lol)

      There's a girl wheelchair bound in my class and I've already secretly decided if shit hits the fan I'm gonna fireman carry her to safety. We had a fire drill and everybody just walked past her. The teacher didn't know where the elevator was. Such a shit show.

      @@CynicalLight that's so disheartening, I feel really bad for her! The worst part about fire drills in many places, is that they actually shut the elevators down... or at least I've always thought they did... they always announce not to use the elevators and I thought it was for safety reasons. I'm wondering now if it's so people in wheelchairs can have them and also so people don't literally stand in a burning building, waiting for the elevator because everyone flocks to it. Either way, on behalf of disabled people everywere, thank you!

    When I was seventeen, I went grocery shopping with a friend in a small town in southern Ohio. The weather was a little rainy, not alarmingly, but enough that we decided to sit on some big bags of mulch outside the store to wait it out before packing up the van and heading back home. I was babbling about something, not paying attention to my surroundings at all, and my friend got this strange look on his face and started staring, wide-eyed, out across the parking lot. A few seconds later, he grabbed me by my shirt and dragged me back into the store. On the way in, I saw a handful of employees gathered around the front entrance, also staring out at the parking lot. When I first turned around on the way in, I didn't see anything, but my eyes finally reconciled what they were seeing, I guess, and I realized an enormous tornado - pretty much the exact same size as the plaza the store was in - had touched down in the parking lot and was barreling right toward us. We ran inside and bolted to the back of the store and I was clinging to my friend as people were screaming and crying and, after a handful of seconds, the whole building started to shake. I'd never felt or heard anything like it and I haven't since. I couldn't see what was happening out in the main area, as we were huddled together in a stock room in the very back, but when it finally ended, which felt like a lifetime later (but, in retrospect, was probably only 30-60 seconds), we walked out of the stock room, into the main part of the store, and half of the roof was missing. The entire center of the plaza the store was in had been gutted by the tornado, more than half of the cars in the lot were completely destroyed, and a man had died in one of the aisles of a heart attack. To make an already terrifying situation worse, we weren't allowed to leave - my friend's car had been parked at the edge of the lot and wasn't badly damaged - and the sky got darker, the rain got harder, and there were hundreds of people just wandering around dazed all over what was left of the plaza. You always see/hear stories of how things get calm and serene after a tornado, but that's not what happened. The weather intensified and there were cops and paramedics all over the place. So we just sat in the back of my friend's van in the parking lot for literal hours, waiting for someone to tell us we could go, worried in the backs of our minds that it would happen again.
    That was such a long story. O.o I'm sorry! It's just the scariest thing that's ever happened to me. It's been twenty years and tornadoes are still the most prevalent villain in my nightmares.
    As for the stampede (which I googled after seeing this video and, holy crap): What a truly horrifying situation. Panic can do such awful things en masse and I can only imagine how it must have felt to be there living it. I'm so, so glad Molly and her mom and the pupper and the team made it out of there!

    Molly, this video made me tear up, I'm so glad you're ok and your mum and everyone, and I worried for poor small Gallop during this video... so sorry you had to deal with this, it sounds SO traumatic and I'm glad you are able to speak about it now which means you're healing from it.
    I've had PTSD since childhood and it really is hard, so I understand how it feels. It's also totally true about "you don't know how you're going to react until it's happening", I have a terrible freeze response in scary situations. Every single terrible event has made me react this way involuntarily I cannot move unless grabbed and moved, so if that happened I would be screwed. For everyone saying you're overreacting would be terrified themselves, and also people can get very very injured or killed during stampedes of lots of people. One example, Hillsborough Football Stadium Disaster 15 April 1989, over 90 people dead and 700 injured and that was because of police failure crowd control.
    I'm so glad you're all good.

    It was actually caused by a fight that happened. Two people were fighting and when people tried to get away from them, they stepped on empty water bottles thrown on the ground which someone said was a gunshot and it ended up causing the mass panic. That is when people started fleeing and causing fences/barriers to fall and sound even more like gunshots. The police tried to calm everyone down and let them know what was going on but once something like that starts, it is VERY hard to stop.

    One of my scariest moments was when I was 16 babysitting 4 kids. We were upstairs and I was getting the kids bathed and ready for bed and we hear a very loud crash that sounded like glass and someone breaking in followed by a deep and unnerving voice. I was so freaked out. The parents werent supposed to be home for another few hours and I was young myself..caring for 4 kids! 2 of which were under 2. One was a baby. I got all of the kids in the bathroom and locked us in there. After some time of listening and telling them to stay completely quiet I don't hear anything at all..mind you, my phone was not on me! So I walk around the corner and slowly start to peak downstairs around the railing and i dont see anything..but soon enough I hear more loud voices and now music and I realize that we had left a movie on and they had some major surround sound with speakers on the ceiling..it was Harry Potter! And Hagrid that we had heard! I was so relieved! I know looking back it's kind of funny but at the time it felt as real as if there was an intruder and I was going to have to hide and possibly protect these precious kids and myself. I was so unprepared to do that..but who is?! Thank God for Harry Potter!! Whew!

I would write more but the story is too long. at the end of the experience my sister and friend were ok but the lifeless body turned out to be my beloved principal. that day she put her life to the ultimate risk to push 5 other students out of the way including one that was handicapped. to this day I'm still traumatized.

    So i was on a shooting (like narco shit) somewhere in Mexico and i honestly froze, a friend of mine grabbed my hand and threw me on to the floor and she put herself on top of me and covered me, another friend grabbed my hand and said to me “calm down it’s ok we’re going to be ok”i’m so thankful for friends like that honestly don’t know what would’ve happen to me bc i was panicking i was so scared, and you really don’t know how to react on situations like that. (don’t know how to explain it better sorry language barrier)
