All footage used was pulled from actual news reports that were each shown on air following the incidents. And can be used as an example of making broadcasts safer for all those involved.

That twilight zone one pissed me the hell off about how that slimy douche didn’t pay any repercussions or get punished in any way

0:00 - Guilty

Its no suprise one japanese show this would happen back then. I still remember that poor guy Nasubi who was on a tricked to be on a show while he had to survive over a year while they recorded him surviving in horrendous conditions and humiliating him... the japanese have a dark history if wtf they find funny on a show so im absolutely not shocked these idiots saw a nearly unconscious man face first in mud and didnt think for a second "he may be hurt". Like that is basic instinct if you see someone fall on the ground and not moving or getting up but like I said, apparently japanese back then are demons when it comes to humane treatment on tv..

Asks people to leave him alone and not go after him. Proceeds to expose him to the entire world. You're weird bro.

The Daniel Herbert story haunts me. Nine years gone without a trace. One moment you’re there, the next the world has moved on.
I have a six year old daughter. It’s not just waking up to a fifteen year old I barely recognize....it’s knowing I wasn’t there for any of it. The years that matter most… just gone.

I'm sure Donald Herbert's plight was all part of a loving God's plan. 🤔

Omg the Donald Herbert story😭😭😭😭😭😭

When someone asks how long they've been out, you don't tell them, "Quite a long time." You tell them exactly how long before they have to ask again. What a jerk.

If the whole gun thing at the end happened in the u.s., you better believe the cops would've opened fire, not like these keystone cops that ran away.

I’m surprised the hospital didn’t put the fireman in the top bunk and have it tilted 45 degrees

Shoving somebody's head in the mud is without a doubt one of the most stupid things I have seen done on TV. They can literally drown and he wasn't moving for a while so they should have flipped him over! 😡

One look at the cop and I knew what the story was about. That comedian was onto something, sadly

Being a fucking idiot isn't an excuse for effectively killing an obviously paralyzed man. They shouldn't be allowed to walk the streets anymore.

explores some of the most unsettling and tragic accidents and crimes in television history that were captured on camera. The documentary highlights the following cases:

The Irony of Christina's Court (0:00 - 3:35): The video discusses a lighthearted moment from the legal show Christina's Court involving bailiff Renard Spivey. Years later, in a dark turn of events, Spivey was convicted of murdering his wife.
Tetsushi Yanagida's Fall (4:54 - 10:05): During a live Japanese game show in 2008, host Tetsushi Yanagida suffered a severe accident while competing in a mud-based challenge. He was paralyzed after hitting his head in shallow water, and due to the crew's misunderstanding, the situation turned into a life-threatening ordeal.
The Awakening of Donald Herbert (10:05 - 13:50): This segment covers the story of firefighter Donald Herbert, who spent nearly a decade in a minimally conscious state after a building collapse in 1995. The video details his unexpected, emotional, and brief recovery in 2005 before his eventual passing.
The Twilight Zone Incident (13:50 - 18:18): A look into the tragic 1982 filming of Twilight Zone: The Movie, where actor Vic Morrow and two child actors, Mika din Lee and Renee Shin-Yi Chen, were killed during a scene involving a helicopter and pyrotechnics.
The Albert Dryden Case (18:18 - 25:30): The video concludes with the story of Albert Dryden, who shot and killed council chief Harry Collinson during a live news broadcast documenting a dispute over the demolition of Dryden’s home in 1991.

England and the Democrat Party in the U.S. go hand in hand! Both sides believe in Aristocracy, servitude to the Empire, and land ownership for big businesses and corporations!

Albert Dryden's case is a prime example of everything wrong and corrupt about the system itself!

The last story is why I like living outside of city limits in Texas. No permits required. It's your property, use it as you like.

I even told a sheriff's deputy to put his taser away when he entered my property uninvited. He complied.

Ive seen all episodes of Darkest Moments on TV and the Tetsushi fall has vividly been stuck in my head since. I can’t even re watch it. Truly disturbing.

I fully back dryden in the last story, the councils in England do nothing for the public except bleed them dry, valid crash out when it very much could and should have been allowed, the council just decided to be very petty and awkward for no reason at all

@jessicachell8993

Can someone explain to me why a man couldn’t built his own house on his own property? Were there laws against that back in the day? That’s just ridiculous. Let a man live his life and fulfill his desires especially if it’s the property HE paid for. Once again the government trying to take control and will always remind us that we never truly own anything.

2:26 If his wife was killed at 52 and the original clip was from a decade before that, the pair having been married for over 27 years means she would have been like 15 at their wedding…
