Seconded. Also, 2 guys 1 hammer, any of the ISIS decapitation videos, self mutilation, etc. I'm aware that some of these things exist in the world, but that doesn't mean I have to see it.
Edit: there was one of these horrible videos I saw that I think was worth it in the long run, and that was the inside footage of The Station nightclub fire. It's easily the worst thing I've ever seen. And it's strange because I've frequented Rotten.com back in my younger days and this video had no gore or anything like that, but somehow it's more than the sum of its parts and will stick with you long after you've seen it. On the flip side, after having seen it every time I enter a crowded event or building I am mindful of all exits and potential escape routes. So I guess seeing it is worth gaining a level in perception. You might feel differently, so be warned. Note: the link above is to the wikipedia page. If you want to see the video that's on you.
The Club fire I think is really important for people to see. 5 minutes from, "oh there's a fire" to total conflagration.
Humans tend to exit the way they come in and will walk past a wall of exits in a panic. I took a class at work on fire safety. Having known that, I was at a movie theater and the alarm went off, only me and my friend went out the nearest exit, everyone else walked past and went out the way they came in.
Please take not of the nearest emergency exit, and sprinkler systems- another fact the fire marshal said was, other then September 11, no fatalities in a sprinkled building. And finally, pulling the fire alarm will not activate the sprinklers like in movies-pull that fucker if their is a fire. Be brave.
