A man who imprisoned his own daughter in the basement for 24 years and had 7 children with her. Josef Fritzl was born in Amstetten, Austria, on April 9, 1935. At the time, Austria was under the control of Nazi Germany. His father abandoned the family when he was four years old and later died in the war, leaving him to be raised by his mother, who often beat him severely. Later in life, he was very strict and disciplined. At the age of 21, he married a woman named Rosemarie, who was four years younger than him and worked as a kitchen helper. At some unknown point, he graduated from a technical college with a qualification in electrical engineering and worked at Voestalpine, an Austria-based steel company. For a while, he worked in mail-order lingerie, but gave up on it in 1972 and bought an inn and campsite near Salzburg.

Josef and Rosemarie had seven children together, including two sons and five daughters, including Elisabeth, whom he reportedly started sexually abusing as early as 1977, when she was 11 years old.

Tired of getting raped and beaten, Elisabeth would run away from home a few times. On January 1983 she ran away from home and went into hiding in Vienna with a friend from work. She was found by police within three weeks and returned to her parents. Josef developed a plan to make sure that she could never escape again. He planned to keep her imprisoned in their basement, so that she could never escape again.

On 28 August 1984, after Elisabeth turned 18, Fritzl lured her into the basement of the family home, saying that he needed help carrying a door. In reality, Fritzl had been converting the basement into a makeshift prison chamber, the door was the last thing he needed to seal it. After Elisabeth held the door in place while Fritzl fitted it into the frame, he held an ether-soaked towel on her face until she was unconscious, then threw her into the chamber.

After Elisabeth's disappearance, Rosemarie, Elisabeth's mother filed a missing persons report. Almost a month later, Fritzl handed over a letter to the police, the first of several that he had forced Elisabeth to write while she was in captivity. The letter, stated that she was tired of living with her family and was staying with a friend. She warned her parents not to look for her or she would leave the country. Fritzl told police that she had most likely joined a cult. Elizabeth turned 18, so there was nothing the police could do about runaway complaints. Josef made her believe that poisonous gas would be pumped in the room if she tried to escape and that she would get electrified if she would open the door.

Basement where Elizabeth was imprisoned for 24 years.

Everyone believed that Elizabeth ran away and had joined a cult, but in reality she was living under their feet in the basement of the family home. Over the next 24 years the horror for Elisabeth was unrelenting, the cold, the damp, the rats, which she was sometimes forced to catch with her bare hands, the water that ran off the walls in such large quantities she had to use towels to soak it up. Summer, when the place turned into an intolerable sweaty sauna, was the worst time of year.

Over the 24 years that he had her imprisoned, Fritzl often raped his daughter, and she had seven children with him. One of the children, a twin called Michael, died shortly after his birth in the cellar in 1996. He had severe breathing difficulties and expired in his mother's arms when he was just 66 hours old.

Fritzl admitted he subsequently burned the baby's body in an incinerator. He sexually abused and raped her sometimes several times a day. Often the kids had to watch the abuse as they grew older.

The house at Ybbsstrasse 40 in Amstetten, Austria, where Josef Fritzl imprisoned his daughter Elisabeth Fritzl in a basement prison. The police eventually found out about his crimes when one of the children became very sick and he took her to the hospital. On 19 April 2008, Elisabeth's eldest daughter fell unconscious and Fritzl agreed to seek medical attention. Elisabeth helped him carry Kerstin out of the chamber and saw the outside world for the first time in 24 years. He forced Elisabeth to return to the chamber, where she remained for a final week. Kerstin was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, the Landesklinikum Amstetten, and was admitted in serious condition with life-threatening kidney failure. Fritzl later arrived at the hospital claiming to have found a note written by Kerstin's mother. He discussed Kerstin's condition and the note with a doctor, Albert Reiter.

Medical staff found aspects of Fritzl's story puzzling and alerted the police on 21 April. The police broadcast an appeal on public media for the missing mother to come forward and provide information about Kerstin's medical history. The police reopened the case file on Elisabeth's disappearance. Fritzl repeated his story about Elisabeth being in a cult, and presented what he claimed was the most recent letter from her, dated January 2008, posted from the town of Kematen. The police contacted Manfred Wohlfahrt, a church officer and expert on cults, who raised doubts about the existence of the group Fritzl described. He noted that Elisabeth's letters seemed dictated and oddly written.

Elisabeth pleaded with Fritzl to be taken to the hospital. On 26 April, he released her from the cellar along with her sons Stefan and Felix, bringing them upstairs. He and Elisabeth went to the hospital where Kerstin was being treated on 26 April 2008. Following a tip-off from Dr. Reiter that Fritzl and Elisabeth were at the hospital, the police detained them on the hospital grounds and took them to a police station for questioning.

Elisabeth did not provide police with more details until they promised her that she would never have to see her father again. Over the next two hours, she told the story of her 24 years in captivity. Elisabeth recounted that Fritzl raped her and forced her to watch pornographic videos, which he made her re-enact with him in front of her children in order to humiliate her. Shortly after midnight, police officers completed the investigation. Fritzl, aged 73, was arrested on 26 April 2008 on suspicion of serious crimes against family members.

During the night of 27 April, Elisabeth, her children and her mother Rosemarie were taken into care. Police said Fritzl told investigators how to enter the basement chamber through a small hidden door, opened by a secret keyless entry code. Rosemarie had been unaware of what had been happening to Elisabeth.

On 29 April, it was announced that DNA evidence confirmed Fritzl as the biological father of his daughter's children. His defence lawyer, Rudolf Mayer, said that although the DNA test proved incest, evidence was still needed for the allegations of rape and enslavement. Arrest trial of Josef Fritzl march 16, 2009

He was sentenced to life imprisonment for incest, rape, coercion, false imprisonment, enslavement and for the negligent homicide of one of his infant sons. The basement where Elisabeth was held has since been filled in by the Austrian authorities to prevent other perverts from worshipping it as a shrine. Elisabeth was given a new name following Josef's trial, which saw strict laws introduced to prevent her identity from being revealed. Since then, Austrian authorities and residents have made great efforts to protect the family's privacy. Elisabeth Fritzl and her children all have new identities now, and their exact whereabouts remain a mystery.

In May 2017, Josef Fritzl changed his name to Josef Mayrhoff, probably due to getting into a prison fight that resulted in several of his teeth getting knocked out after other inmates set up a fake dating profile with his name and picture.

Mark Perry, a British journalist who interviewed Fritzl in his cell, says he has shown no remorse for his crimes. He recalls he kept saying "just look into the cellars of other people, you might find other families and girls down there. In April 2019, it was reported that Fritzl's health was declining and that he did not want to live anymore.

In September 2021, a decision was made to release Fritzl from a psychiatric detention facility to a regular prison, where he was to continue to serve his life sentence. That decision was based on a psychiatric report which said he no longer posed any danger. The ruling was appealed and overturned in November 2021, and the Regional Court of Krems was ordered to reconsider the case. In late-April 2022, a panel of three judges decided that Josef Fritzl could be moved. The decision was based on a supplementary psychiatric report submitted in March. However, the court ruled that he would remain in the psychiatric facility until an appeal to the Higher Regional Court in Vienna was heard. The move to a regular prison would mean that Fritzl, who received a life sentence, was eligible for parole in 2023, having served the initial 15 years of his sentence. In January 2024, Fritzl applied to Krems regional court for release from prison into a nursing home, but the application was rejected.

On January 25, 2024, the Higher Regional Court approved Fritzl's move to a regular prison, amid reports that he was suffering from dementia. Within a week, prosecutors had filed a complaint seeking to overturn the decision in a higher court. If Fritzl is moved to a regular prison, he will be eligible for parole in 2025.

A panel of judges in Krems ruled that the 88 year old would be transferred from the prison for the mentally abnormal to a normal cell, paving the way for his permanent release.

I Hope this guy never gets released. I Hope you enjoyed it. I will end it with the best documentary about Josef Fritzl. Thanks for reading👍

@Lollypoop

On January 11, 2013, the body of Kendrick Johnson (October 10, 1995 – January 10, 2013) was discovered inside a vertical rolled-up mat in the gymnasium of Lowndes High School in Valdosta, Georgia, United States, where he was a student.[1][2][3][4] After a preliminary investigation and autopsy concluded that Johnson's death was accidental, his family had a private pathologist conduct a second autopsy which concluded that he died from blunt force trauma. On October 31, 2013, the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia announced that his office would open a formal review into Johnson's death. On June 20, 2016, the Department of Justice announced that it would not be filing any criminal charges related to Johnson's death.

Cause

Contested.

1st autopsy: accidental, positional asphyxia.

2nd autopsy: blunt force trauma.

In 2013, David Holmes was killed when a car turned into his path as he zoomed down a road in Norfolk, England. Holmes was traveling about 97 mph at the time of the crash, and the driver of the car he hit admitted to careless driving after saying he didn't see the motorcyclist, the BBC reports.

David

"I know he rode fast that day. He loved speed, he loved motorbikes," David's mother, Brenda Holmes, said. "I just hope that somebody benefits from it. That motorists slow down and look before they turn..."

The car after the accident

A camera on the 38-year-old's helmet captured the accident.

After seeing the footage, Holmes agreed for it to be released to the public. She's now helping lead a road safety campaign along with the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads Police Department to get all riders and motorists to think seriously about driving safe on the road.

"If we can prevent one accident; one family going through what we have been through then David would not have died in vain," Holmes told the BBC.

The head of the local police unit admits releasing the video is controversial, but he also believes it will help save lives.

"There are families on both sides of this who have been involved and the whole point of this video is to stop that happening again," Chief Inspector Chris Spinks told the BBC. "I don't make any apologies for it being hard-hitting because the day and age we're in now we have to up our game in the casualty reduction world to make sure that we get that message across."

Please do not fill the comments with negative speech. Most Motorcyclists who ride like this are suicidal and simply just ride for a rush. They do not care if they die. Stay safe

12 October 2017

A Russian woman has died in the Dominican Republic after a car accident which involved her hanging out of the window on the passenger side while the driver recorded her on a mobile phone.

Natalia Borodina, 35, from Moscow, had taken her bikini off and was playing up to the camera, hauling her top half out of the car window while a friend was driving.

The shocking video sees the mother-of-one letting her upper body hang out of the window of the moving car, before she hits a lamp post.

I know everyone likes drinking sometimes and that's why I want to educate a bit about that!

What is excessive drinking?

Excessive drinking does not count as alcoholism, I'll get to that later.

Excessive drinking includes binge drinking, heavy drinking, and any drinking by pregnant women or people younger than age 21.

Binge drinking, the most common form of excessive drinking, is defined as consuming: For women, 4 or more drinks during a single occasion. For men, 5 or more drinks during a single occasion.

Heavy drinking is defined as consuming: For women, 8 or more drinks per week. For men, 15 or more drinks per week.

Risks of Excessive Drinking

Injuries, such as motor vehicle crashes, falls, drownings, and burns.

Violence, including homicide, suicide, sexual assault, and intimate partner violence.

Alcohol poisoning, a medical emergency that results from high blood alcohol levels.

Risky sexual behaviors, including unprotected sex or sex with multiple partners. These behaviors can result in unintended pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV.

Miscarriage and stillbirth or fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs) among pregnant women.

Oral and dental issues, such as dental decay.

Allergic reactions.

High blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, liver disease, and digestive problems.

Cancer of the breast, mouth, throat, esophagus, voice box, liver, colon, and rectum.

Weakening of the immune system, increasing the chances of getting sick.

Learning and memory problems, including dementia and poor school performance.

Mental health problems, including depression and anxiety.

Social problems, including family problems, job-related problems, and unemployment.

Alcohol use disorders, or alcohol dependence.

Cirrhosis of the liver.

Withdrawal Symptoms can include

Nausea and vomiting

Headache

Auditory disturbances

Agitation

Paroxysmal sweating

Visual disturbances

Tremor

Clouding of sensorium

Loss of orientation

Anxiety

Withdrawal has a broad range of symptoms from mild tremors to a condition called delirium tremens, which results in seizures and could progress to death if not recognized and treated promptly.

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a medical condition characterized by an impaired ability to stop or control alcohol use despite adverse social, occupational, or health consequences.

AUD is considered a brain disorder that can be diagnosed as mild, moderate and severe. Luckily, with help of therapists and clinics, you can fight this disorder!

Symptoms of AUD

If you do a test for AUD, the doctor may ask following questions:

In the past year, have you:

Had times when you ended up drinking more, or longer, than you intended?

More than once wanted to cut down or stop drinking, or tried to, but couldn't?

Spent a lot of time drinking, being sick from drinking, or getting over other aftereffects?

Wanted a drink so badly you couldn't think of anything else?

Found that drinking—or being sick from drinking—often interfered with taking care of your home or family? Or caused job troubles? Or school problems?

Kept drinking even though it was making you feel depressed or anxious? Or when it was adding to another health problem?

Continued to drink even though it was causing trouble with your family or friends?

Given up or cut back on activities you found important, interesting, or pleasurable so you could drink?

More than once gotten into situations while or after drinking that increased your chances of getting hurt (such as driving, swimming, using machinery, walking in a dangerous area, or unsafe sexual behavior)?

Continued to drink even though it was making you feel depressed or anxious or adding to another health problem? Or after having had an alcohol-related memory blackout?

Had to drink much more than you once did to get the effect you want? Or found that your usual number of drinks had much less effect than before?

Found that when the effects of alcohol were wearing off, you had withdrawal symptoms, such as trouble sleeping, shakiness, restlessness, nausea, sweating, a racing heart, dysphoria (feeling uneasy or unhappy), malaise (general sense of being unwell), feeling low, or a seizure? Or sensed things that were not there?

Treatment of AUD

As mentioned before, AUD is treatable. The most common treatments are behavioural treatments like therapy or alcohol counseling. It's supposed to help you change your drinking behaviour. They help you find motivation to get better and teach you useful coping skills.

There are some medications that can also be used to help people stop or reduce their drinking habits. The most common ones are naltrexone (oral and long-acting injectable), acamprosate, and disulfiram. These are also the only ones approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Where to get help

If you think you might have AUD and want to change that, please look out for help. There are a few hotlines but I can only encourage you to visit a professional! Go to your local doctor and talk to them about your issues. They can provide you with treatment and help you through your journey.

Thank you for reading!!

Actually traumatising as fuck.

Let me know if this is a repost

We have officially hit 2 million WPD registered users!

Im surprised nobody is commenting on this, but whatever, happy 2 mil!

2 MILLIONTH USER -> https://watchpeopledie.tv/@Uuuhs

Happy april fools!

We swapped account names for 24 hours but don't worry, everything is back to normal now and all of those comments you made under a different name are NOW IN YOUR NAME!!! OH NO WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?!?

WEST JAVA, INDONESIA – OCTOBER 13, 2022 A group of three teenage boys in West Java, Indonesia, were known to be playing with firecrackers that they made themselves using YouTube tutorials. They went to a field quite far from the settlement and lit the firecrackers there. As expected, because they only followed a tutorial from YouTube, something terrible happened when one of the teenagers started lighting the firecrackers. The firecrackers exploded too quickly and caused the three of them to fly.

One of them died on the spot because he was the closest teenager and the one who lit the firecrackers. One of them who helped to hold the firecrackers had to lose his hand, which was destroyed by the explosion. Meanwhile, a teenager who makes firecrackers only uses YouTube tutorials, who was also the teenager who bounced the furthest without experiencing any injury.

The third teenager, the one who got up first, was shocked to see the dead body of one of his friends lying destroyed by the explosion and the other friend, who was in pain, saw his hand which was destroyed by the explosion. The third teenager tried to carry his friends to get help, and this is when the video was recorded.

Remember, the person who posted this has done some research and really talked to the traumatized victim, and they have a request to censor most of the story (including the victim's name and location) without changing the main event. This is why the video was recorded on October 13, 2022, and uploaded on April 16, 2024, because of the long research of the truth behind the video.

Moral of the story: Don't abuse tutorials from YouTube, which can have fatal consequences

That's right, this miserable shithole is now two years old.

Happy birthday!

Your gift is my return to the helm, now with less patience for you than ever before. Watching janny chatter about the proliferation of wannabe shooters and child predators has been infuriating and I intend to put a stop to it. Leave now or there will be consequences, this is your only warning. This is neither hyperbolic nor a bit and it won't end well for you; the ability to provide this very unhappy ending was a prerequisite of my return.

Two years ago today, WPD did not exist. The world was a better place for its absence.

One year ago, WPD did exist. It existed for one year despite tech companies' best efforts to the contrary. It only had 269,000 users. The world was worse off than it was prior, but things were going to get much worse.

Today, WPD still exists. WPD has existed for two years. WPD is one busy day off of having 2,000,000 users. Things have never been worse.

--

At this rate, WPD will have around 20,000,000 users in 2025, 200,000,000 in 2026, 2,000,000,000 in 2027, and by 2028 it will have considerably more users than there are people on Earth. It must be stopped, and I look forward to doing my level best to make it stop in the coming year.

Some other miscellaneous and less insane statistics, written by the beloved @G-tix:

• 33.000 videos have been uploaded a year ago. About 155k videos have been uploaded now. That's an increase of 470%!

• We went from 485k comments to over 2.4 million comments.

• We've given over 10 million upvotes in the past year. We almost gave 2 million downvotes.

• We have about 61k active, registered users per week.

These are just registered users, of course. If we go by logged out, total traffic, things get much more horrifying: Last week alone, WPD served 893,000 unique users who viewed a total of 5,710,000 pages. This does not track plays of videos directly from the thread list. We have no means of doing that.

But don't listen to me, listen to Cloudflare:

Yeah, even though we keep adding servers, load time is in the shitter and getting worse. This is becoming ever more costly to host. I hope to resolve that soon with your help.

Some highlights from the past year here:

• The TikTok invasion

• That cute twink school shooter having had an account here

• We reached one million registered users 6 months ago

• WPD rolled out two new categories with unlimited potential for more so that we can be super serious and catalog active conflicts

• The myth of heterosexual intercourse was debunked

• Terrorists slaughtered and raped their way through the Israeli citizenry and somehow turned every Western midwit into raging antisemites.

• The war in the Slavlands really started to heat up:

Anyway that's all, please enjoy the confetti, the celebratory new logo, and the X8 COIN MODIFIER for the next 3 days. You read that correctly: each vote that you receive on any thread or comment, up or down, will give you +8 coins. for the duration of WPD's birthday weekend ✨

Happy birthday you degenerate freaks

I love you.

June 2023.

“As bystanders screamed for help, a man with a knife stabbed four young children at a lakeside park in the French Alps on Thursday, assaulting at least one in a stroller repeatedly.

The children between 22 months and 3 years old suffered life-threatening injuries, and two adults also were wounded, authorities said.

A suspect, identified by police as a 31-year-old Syrian, was detained in connection with the horrific attack in the Alpine and lakeside town of Annecy.

French Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said he had refugee status in Sweden.

A prosecutor leading the investigation said the man's motives were unknown but did not appear to be terrorism-related.

The helplessness of the young victims and the savagery of the attack sickened France.

Lead prosecutor Line Bonnet-Mathis said all four children suffered life-threatening knife wounds.

The youngest is 22 months old, two are age 2 and the oldest is 3, she said. Two of them were tourists, she said.

One adult also suffered knife wounds and a second adult was hurt both with the attacker's knife and later by a shot fired by police as they were making the arrest, Bonnet-Mathis said.”

A young boy was reportedly shot dead while shooting the video of a brawl in his village in UP's Sambhal district. A dispute between children of two politically rival families took a bloody turn when one of the families allegedly opened indiscriminate fire at another killing a 50-year-old man and injuring two in Sisauna village under the jurisdiction of Bahjoi police station in UP's Sambhal district on Saturday night.

(Second video they make)

In December 2008, a brutal seven-minute video was released online, recording the sadistic torture and murder of 48-year-old Sergei Yatzenko in the forest by 19-year-old "maniacs from Dnipropetrovsk" (Ukraine). Viktor Sayenko, Alexander Hanzha and Igor Suprunyuck murdered 21 people in less than two months (June-July 2007). It started with hanging dogs and cats and ended with hunting people: homeless people, women, old people, alcoholics, children. They filmed two murders on a mobile phone ("Eden Lake" bows), nearly 300 macabre photos were presented in court. They killed with heavy objects (metal rods, hammer). They directed their blows at the faces of the attacked to deprive them of human features. Many victims were mutilated and tortured: some had their eyes gouged out while they were still alive. One of the dead was a pregnant woman: her executioners cut out her fetus. There was no sexual motive for the series of murders. A brutal recording of the murder of a homeless man (called 'Ukrainian brutal murder') is circulating on the Internet, and it was found on the computer of one of the perpetrators. He is incredibly brutal and inhumane.

The boys' cell phones and laptops contained recordings of some of the murders and hundreds of photos, including photos showing posing next to dead dogs and cats and having fun at the victims' funerals (mocking, 'falling' from tombstones). The video leaked online shows a defenseless man lying on the ground in the forest. One of the teenagers hits him several times in the face with a hammer hidden in plastic foil. The victim is bleeding and having difficulty breathing. Then the torturers stab him in the stomach and eye with a screwdriver. Yatzenko is still breathing, moaning in agony, trying to cover his face with the last of his strength... He receives several more blows to the face with a hammer to make sure he is dead. The murderers walk away towards the car, showing that the crime scene is close to the road. They discuss the fact that the man was still alive despite having a screwdriver inserted into his skull. Surprise. Washing the hammer with water from a bottle. Finally, the cruel laughter of both of them shows that humanity has just gone into the gutter. At the very end, the smiling killer says to his companion behind the camera, "Okay, let's go take some photos.
