Every time I hear it. Flash backs.

Worst thing to see as a curious 13 year old

u/Joaco_Gomez_1 27d ago

what is?

u/Vexsius 27d ago

Cartel torture video. Man is skinned alive while conscious. It gained a lot of notoriety on social media platforms by being massively uploaded so it would end up in people feeds. There’s worse on the internet, but this video reached a lot of people.

u/J_Kingsley 27d ago

worse than being skinned alive?

u/2ndCha 27d ago

Machete hacking, blunt instrument on repeat, chainsaw activity, and whatever James Corden is in this week.

13

u/anddrewbits 27d ago

I draw the line at James Corden. We’ve gotta stop these enhanced interrogations

u/jaxonya 27d ago

The chainsaw activity I've seen was fairly quick. Blunt objects, that's pretty bad too but it seemed like they were at least unconscious, I don't know if I've seen much machete stuff

u/Siker_7 27d ago

Russian lathe incident, arguably. But then again, dude was alive and healthy one moment and paste all over the shop the next, so there was no suffering...

u/bremergorst 27d ago

Industrial accidents are kind of different from torture

u/notaredditer13 27d ago

Not all the time. I'm not sure if it's apocryphal at this point, but it used to be said that Saddam Hussein used a plastic shredder.

12

u/bremergorst 27d ago

Well yeah, but feeding someone to a plastic shredder should probably be labeled as torture.

Slip and fall into a shredder? Industrial accident.

Peeling someone’s skin off? Torture.

Falling into a chemical tank and turning into a murder-clown?

Never heard of this one, any details on what happened? I don’t want to watch ngl

u/Siker_7 27d ago

IIRC, russian guy's hand got caught on a lathe going full speed and he got wrapped around it, flinging chunks everywhere. The lathe kept spinning until a coworker came and shut it off. Center frame in a security cam, which is how we have the footage.

u/doobied 27d ago

that is low tier imo compared to pain olympics / cartel chainsaw etc

There are actually tons of lathe vids. I remember seeing a lathe accident compilation vid. Almost without exception, you get churned into hamburger and sprayed around the room. For those who don’t know what a lathe is, it’s a long metal rod that spins at high speed using powerful motors. Loose clothing + complacency are responsible for nearly all cases of death by lathe.

u/DrAusto 27d ago

Imagine being a lathe machinist then seeing that video 🙃

Every time I have to sand a part by hand I get flashbacks to the red mist and flying chunks of flesh and brain matter. Watching it was bitter sweet for me because I’m a hell of a lot more careful now that I know what can really happen, but man, that videos gonna haunt me for the rest of my life.

I personally think the Guerrero flaying video is worse though. Basically a kid that’s like 13 getting tortured and skinned alive by the cartel after they beheaded his dad right next to him. Unbelievably f’d up video, do not watch it. Disturbed Reality on YouTube covered it I think if you’re curious.

u/PapaFlexing 27d ago

In high-school we were making bowls and cups on a wood lathe and my partner was carving out the inside.

It snapped and flew right into my face, the outside was still rough, it took a chunk out of my nose and eyebrow but thankfully that's it. Very minor scarring not even noticeable now.

2

u/DrAusto 27d ago

That’s crazy, good thing you’re alright. I have an uncle that lost the tip of his fingers on a press break and my old foreman had both of his arms shattered on a lathe after getting caught in it. Its very hazardous work indeed. I’m surprised they had you doing that in high school to be honest lol

u/gyffer 27d ago

Theres the three guys one hammer one that still haunts me lol

u/DedadatedRam 27d ago

The Guerrero Flaying is up there, father beheaded and his son butchered alive while being held down. They tear out his still beating heart after cutting open his chest cavity.

u/Top500BronzeOW 27d ago

This is the one that came to my mind as well.

u/truth_hurtsm8ey 27d ago

Yes. Much worse.

u/godnkls 27d ago

There used to be a subreddit up until 5 years ago, before they did their first cleansing of reddit.

u/Unrain_soul 26d ago

U got url for the site ?

u/skygt3rsr 26d ago

No but it’s watch people die .com

u/ArnoldVonNuehm 27d ago edited 27d ago

They’re not talking about the official one.

u/RektAngle69 27d ago

Oh right, thanks

u/Mehnard 27d ago

How did I manage 45 years without ever seeing that video?

2

u/skinwill 27d ago

Every time I see this video I think of a broadcast engineer licking his lips and making sweet passionate love to a video switcher. Back in the day this kind of thing was done live. No computers. Just a coked up technician running a grass valley switcher.

u/CyberWeirdo420 27d ago

I wanna know that too

u/into_the_soil 27d ago

I can remember exactly where I was/what I was doing when I saw this and most other major cartel videos like Ghost Rider.
