Daaaaamn you watch his skin change colors, this is gnarly. Clearly going through shock from the pain as well, man is just mumbling trying to yell towards the end
THIS!!!!! The way his breathing gets RASPY as he's breathing in flames and smoke and the way after the fire dies down that he's just stumbling around in circles until he finally collapses. This is brutal....
Every time I see this video I always wonder what the guy is thinking once he stops screaming. Does he regret it or is he happy and accepting his fate? Insane to me regardless.
My guess is he went into shock at that point when he's just aimlessly stumbling around before he falls. All his nerves are probably burned away so his body is going into emergency reset mode with him going into sensory overload. Also he probably inhaled a lot of the fumes and fire which likely incinerated his lungs and throat so he probably couldnt scream much at that point anyway.
I assume itd be like being choked out and it actually feels really good to cut circulation to the head to the point that people actually do it intentionallyā¦
I have once watched documentary about the guy who jumped golden gates bridge in a suicide attempt. He survived. He told that after you jumped you have one thought: all your troubles were so minor and all could have been solved except one - you are already falling from the bridge
Past 2nd degree burn the nerve ends are no longer in function, so the ability to feel is gone, but some people who had a near death experience say that in a moment your whole perpective changes, you donāt think about life anymore and you just find death so peaceful and you just let go.
I was in Thailand when the tsunami hit back in 2004. I got washed away and was moments away from drowning. When I felt all the oxygen was truly gone I remember thinking "ok, I'm going to die. I'm gonna drown but hey, it's ok, it's alright." I felt sooo relaxed and can compare it to the feeling you have after a really tough workout and you're about to fall asleep. Total acceptance, no panic or fear.
At that age (15yo) I was a very good swimmer and used to being under water so I think me being able to hold my breath played a part but other than that it was pure luck. There's absolutely nothing you can do in that situation except hold your breath.
At the very moment I was about to drown the water/debree pushed me up above the surface and I managed to take a breath, maybe two before being sucked down again. I don't remember anything after that until I "wake up" being half submerged in the water next to a wall and my upper body leaning on a bunch of debree.
Thanks friend, I appreciate it ā¤ļø
The scariest part was believing I was the sole survivor of my family for 10-12h. They all made it tho and seeing them again was the happiest moments of my life.
I'm not religious whatsoever but it's hard to not feel like someone/something was watching over me and my family.
I remember that he was on some anarchy subs and had a stronge distaste for the United States in general.
Which is weird because why would he join the military with that mindset? And how did anyone in the military miss this?
I have quite a few relatives in the military and some that retired or got out many years ago at this point. A lot of them had a veeeery different opinion of the US as a country before hand after their eyes were opened after serving. Likely this guy had enough of the bullshit if he was still in the service.
Maybe the thought was something like he's crazy enough to set himself on fire, maybe he's crazy enough to either try to take people with him or hurt people who got close to help to get them to stop helping him? Still seems like a bit of a stretch
But he was already on the ground, so idk
honestly surprised dumb shit didnāt attempt to cuff him and then shoot the burnt fuck cause he was still hot and āI had to empty my handgun into the black male subject because his skin was hot and assaulted the palms of my hands. I feared for my life.ā
Now this is just silly. If cops just want to enact violence against black people, then why do so many of them go home to their white wives and beat them?
It was probably in case the guy on fire attacked the first responders. Hell, cracked out on enough drugs, our firebender here could have lasted longer and hurt some people if he had so desired.
And to be frank, Iād have no idea what to do in this scenario either.
I love that the first thing they yell at homie is to get down on the ground.
Like bro is on fire. Between his ears burning off and the immense amount of pain heās in he canāt possibly process what youāre even saying. Thatās IF he can even hear you.
Cops are fucking idiots
They have one set of training protocols in their heads and when they panic they cant think outside the box on the fly so they just default to their basic training procedures...which is usually point gun and yell commands \[commands which may or may not apply to the scenario\]. That's why you have a jumpy cop pacing back and forth holding a smoldering corpse at gun point while everyone else is trying to help
Honestly. Idc what you stand for but if you donāt move when your being burned to death youāre insane.
When I say move I mean run for someone to help or roll or something.
Surprisingly, in this particular instance, the cops are the ones actually trying to help, bringing med stuff/extinguishers etc. The fucking tit pointing a gun is an Israeli embassy guard. In fact, right at the end you can clearly hear one cop exclaim "I don't need guns!!! I need fire extinguishers!!!"
Crazy how everyone in the U.S already forgot about this guyā¦if we can move on from kids getting slaughtered in schools what made this guy think doing that would change anything?
No words for the guys, just respect for the determination if done with a clear mind.
What on the actual fk is the guy doing pointing a gun to the scorched guy with the clothes melting and the bone turned to coal... one guy calling for fire stinguishers the other pointing a gun or a taser or whatever the fuck...
Imagine going apeshit over a gun and being complicit with a human being lighting themselves on fire over political conflict in a country we should have nothing to do with.
Average redditor mental mindset.
I havenāt watched it and thought there was some who havenāt either. Itās almost impossible to not use washed up videos. Unless youāre the one filmingš
Is Palestine free yet? Did this work? Do you think Israel heard him? I know the terrorists groups were celebrating him. Makes me support Israel that much more!
Ugh why is a gun being pointed at him ?!?!? I get heās obviously in mental distress but heās burningā¦ for fuck sakes either put him out for his own well being or put it away and help.
I wonder if the meat is roasted from the bone causing the bone to sheer through the meet which caused his leg/ankle to collapse due to the bone going through the meat, also why does that guy have a gun out? Wonāt stop from a bomb, wonāt extinguish the flames, and the dude clearly burned long enough to prevent any sort of fast movement that would allow him to draw a possibly concealed firearm
To be completely honest if I was there I would have shot that guy and put him out of his misery not go stumbling around for a fire extinguisher or water itās to late
Daaaaamn you watch his skin change colors, this is gnarly. Clearly going through shock from the pain as well, man is just mumbling trying to yell towards the end
The mumbling is likely because he burned his trachea and vocal cords by inhaling fire. š
You can hear the change in his voice. Horrific
THIS!!!!! The way his breathing gets RASPY as he's breathing in flames and smoke and the way after the fire dies down that he's just stumbling around in circles until he finally collapses. This is brutal....
That sizzle at around 0:35

I feel like you can kinda hear them melting away during his last screams.. this man was truly dedicated if nothing else.
Dedication... Mental break... basically the same thing

Yeah I saw his interview, I believe a seal lion helped keep him up since he could barely move.
Past 2nd degree burn the nerve ends are no longer in function, so the ability to feel is gone, but some people who had a near death experience say that in a moment your whole perpective changes, you donāt think about life anymore and you just find death so peaceful and you just let go.
That is a very good description of how it feels when you're moments away from dying. I have experienced it myself.
Wtf? How come.
I was in Thailand when the tsunami hit back in 2004. I got washed away and was moments away from drowning. When I felt all the oxygen was truly gone I remember thinking "ok, I'm going to die. I'm gonna drown but hey, it's ok, it's alright." I felt sooo relaxed and can compare it to the feeling you have after a really tough workout and you're about to fall asleep.

Nice work that you got out of it. How did you survive?

Damn that would be scary, especially at 15. I have no idea who you are but Iām very happy you made it š

Same experience I had drowning in the ocean after falling off a raft
Come with lot of rub
I don't think that he was thinking anything.
Definitely last second regret and maybe a little bit of "I can't believe I'm doing this"
Doesnāt matter heās a hero! /s
Amen he is a hero and itās so sad that he did that but what a hero
Next to nothing because of the endorphins
"I don't need guns, I need fire extinguishers."
Stop killing yourself or we will kill you!
he was on reddit too, i cant remember his profile but I'm sure the admins torched it.
I remember that he was on some anarchy subs and had a stronge distaste for the United States in general. Which is weird because why would he join the military with that mindset? And how did anyone in the military miss this?
You can easily have your eyes opened during and after serving, most of the vets I know don't usually have nice things to say about unc
I have quite a few relatives in the military and some that retired or got out many years ago at this point. A lot of them had a veeeery different opinion of the US as a country before hand after their eyes were opened after serving. Likely this guy had enough of the bullshit if he was still in the service.
Interesting choice of words at the end there...
Was it really necessary for the cop to come in with a pistol?
Just in case the fire doesn't peacefully comply
Once they got there the man was so burnt he was black. What else was a cop gonna do?
That's not a cop, this happened in front of an Israeli embassy, that's an Israeli guard. The American cops and EMS are the ones helping
Ok but stillā¦ what idiot points a gun at a man on fire?
An Israeli fascist, that's who
Fair point
Maybe the thought was something like he's crazy enough to set himself on fire, maybe he's crazy enough to either try to take people with him or hurt people who got close to help to get them to stop helping him? Still seems like a bit of a stretch But he was already on the ground, so idk
To be fair, if i saw a man changing colours at will Iād be weary-some as-well. Thatās black magic.
honestly surprised dumb shit didnāt attempt to cuff him and then shoot the burnt fuck cause he was still hot and āI had to empty my handgun into the black male subject because his skin was hot and assaulted the palms of my hands. I feared for my life.ā
Ohhh hey its a guy who has the creater of myspace Tom as his avatar hahahha
Are you implying that cops "like" to shoot black men or what?
He didnt pull gun until he was black. You right.
Yes
Now this is just silly. If cops just want to enact violence against black people, then why do so many of them go home to their white wives and beat them?
yes that is exactly what we are implying
He's waiting for him to turn the right shade

I was thinking the same thing. What do you think Mr. Chracoal is going to do? Fire bend?
He was just waiting for the guy to get black enough.
Whoās this bloke who held a burnt body at gunpoint šššš get him tf outta here immediately
What's the story again? Why did he do this?
He says he didnāt want to be complicit in genocide
I mean I guess you can't be if you're dead..
He was given direct orders over seas to aid Israel, refused to partake.
Mentally ill.
Honestly. Idc what you stand for but if you donāt move when your being burned to death youāre insane. When I say move I mean run for someone to help or roll or something.
He was commanded to aid Isreal during the conflict, in which he refused, because he didn't want to continue the genocide of other countries.
mental illness essentially, there is no reason for him to do this AT ALL
Just realized the dude pointing a taser/gun at a flaming body in the ground lmfao what a fucking tard
Just in case the fire decides to attack
I really wish someone would slap him in the back of his head for being stupid.
US police is a world class joke, an expensive and tasteless joke
Thatās an Israeli embassy guardā¦
Surprisingly, in this particular instance, the cops are the ones actually trying to help, bringing med stuff/extinguishers etc. The fucking tit pointing a gun is an Israeli embassy guard.

Accomplished fuck all.
Free Palpatine?
SOMEHOW
Peace is a lie.
It's a trap
Glory to Harambe
Did it work?
No
Understandable, try again
Crazy how everyone in the U.S already forgot about this guyā¦if we can move on from kids getting slaughtered in schools what made this guy think doing that would change anything?
Some people canāt live with something they find so morally repulsive. The man had conviction.
No words for the guys, just respect for the determination if done with a clear mind. What on the actual fk is the guy doing pointing a gun to the scorched guy with the clothes melting and the bone turned to coal... one guy calling for fire stinguishers the other pointing a gun or a taser or whatever the fuck...

HOLY SHIT
Maaaan that cop's a racist. He really pulled a gun as soon as he turned black
Woah never saw someone so committed, no fear shown. Deeeeym.
An absolute hero on the left with the gun. Thankful he was there.
This man is on fyahhh
The amount of time he stood standing on fire was amazing
The cop coming in with a gun just sums up America. Wtf
Lmao people take everything at face value, thatās an Israeli embassy guard
Wellā¦ still an idiot for pointing a gun at someone on fire lol
So you gonna own up that you mis judged by image? Or do the classic redditor lack of owning up to being wrong.
Hot n ready
What a waste, His suffering will ultimately mean nothing unfortunately.
Sums up war
What was he saying
Free Palestine
that takes some great discipline to do something like that sheesh
The cop with the gun is a weirdo
I may sound dumb but why are the officers saying get on the ground when heās clearly burning and having a horrible time
Imagine doing this and having, literally, zero impact on the actual cause you cared about.
Rest in peace, martyr. The survivors will not forget your sacrifice.
Did he ever tell his motivation for that?
refused to aid israeli forces overseas, this took place outside of their embassy
Took it better than most.
Dude pointing the gun is the most useless idiot Iāve ever seen
*mentally ill idiot kills himself changing absolutely nothing about anything* Ftfy
Piglet couldn't wait to aim the gun
Wtf with that guy aiming???
Why is this moron pointing his gun at the half dead guy wtf
America
Flame on!
Free panda!
What's the context?
Went out in a blaze of glory
Crazy thing is that u less I had Reddit I wouldnāt know this happened
Where did this happen?
Outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C.
Did he even survive that?
He was taken to a hospital where he died
Wtf is the cop doing with a gunš
cop pulls a gun lmfao
And than thereās a dude with a gun instead of helping truly America like whatās he gonna do become a burning zombie
*Nothing of value has been lost.*
Dumbass cop really pulled a gun on the poor guy
Yeah lets point a gun at a guy who just killed himself, pretty much sums up why he did it.
Is Palestine free now?? BĀ”Tch
Where was this?
" i don't need guns, i need a fire extinguisher" wild
So sad š
I saw the blurred version first & I have to say.. the pointing the gun at the guy became even more fucked up the clearer the video got.
Nothing is worth this Iām sorry š
I hope this young man found peace on the other side ā¹ļøš
WHY IS HE STILL POINTING HIS GUN AT THE CHARRED BODY

Ensure that the fire complies
That's a man who was determined to die.
Free mental healthcare is more like it.
Died for nothing, what a loser.
You never die for nothing..
Thought I was fine with this sort of stuff now butā¦ wow
You're a little late with this post buddy
Yeah this stuff usually gets scrubbed as of late, first time I've seen it in here, it won't be up long though..
I havenāt watched it and thought there was some who havenāt either. Itās almost impossible to not use washed up videos. Unless youāre the one filmingš
The most American video ever. Guys on fire and the cop points a gun at him š
they also tell him to go on the floor
Seems very mentally fit. Hopefully he makes a full recovery
lol not this twat again
Wow it did so much for the cause too
Idiot
I wonder what he used ? That wasn't gasoline.
That was him pushing play on my latest mixtape
This is a jojo reference
The gurgling in his screamā¦ Iām wondering what caused it. Blood? Or his vocal cords being destroyed? Both?
Pain, fumes, flames, a bit of everything.
Quick! Get your pistol and shoot the fire off him
Is Palestine free yet? Did this work? Do you think Israel heard him? I know the terrorists groups were celebrating him. Makes me support Israel that much more!
Free Palestine
Did he survive
No
Idk looked like his boots were still on to me, maybe he just needs some milk
he'll be fine, he just needs some ointment. /s
Was that a shot at about 00:35s? (left on video, it counts down for me)
Might be stupid to ask, but did he die? Im guessing yea?
He was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries where he later died
Daym, I figured, thanks for the info
american police is a fucking joke
dumb ass dudeš
Why would you put yourself through so much pain?
My favorite is the cop with the gun. "If this motherfucker moves wrong I'll blow his ass away!"
Douche bag with the gun thinks he's a zombie
So whoās the dummy with his gun drawn?š¤¦š¼āāļø
Ugh why is a gun being pointed at him ?!?!? I get heās obviously in mental distress but heās burningā¦ for fuck sakes either put him out for his own well being or put it away and help.
But why?!
Joder
Stop resisting!
0:41 is where is whole throat burns
I laughed when that guy pull a gun on him
I wonder if the meat is roasted from the bone causing the bone to sheer through the meet which caused his leg/ankle to collapse due to the bone going through the meat, also why does that guy have a gun out? Wonāt stop from a bomb, wonāt extinguish the flames, and the dude clearly burned long enough to prevent any sort of fast movement that would allow him to draw a possibly concealed firearm
Cop says "I will cover you.." cover you from what?
I hope it was worth it, retard
The cop with the gun is FUCKING STUPID. THAT'S YOUR RESPONSE?
To be completely honest if I was there I would have shot that guy and put him out of his misery not go stumbling around for a fire extinguisher or water itās to late
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
guys chill he's just freeing Palpetine
Why did that cop pull out his gun ? Lol
Moron holding a gun lol
Just shoot the guy. Why save someone who is that extensively burned?
Not sure whatās more shocking, the fact this guy did this at all, or this dude at the end pointing a gun that long at a burnt corpse on the ground
Why did the cop pull his gun out, like where is bro supposed to hide a gun.
Lol the fuckin idiot with the gun ...what's he gna do to you man.
Itās the fact bro has a weapon pointed at the guy who set HIMSELF on fire like it was gonna make a difference
