21 bags and he didn't change clothes
-
Imagine how bad the hotel staff feel.. they literally helped him without even knowing.
-
Everyone talks about 61 dead but I can’t believe he injured 700 people with like a over 1k bullets, means most bullets you hear in this video made contact😱. Both are insane numbers
-
It feels like nobody even remembers this event anymore. Rest In Peace to many of the victims. 🙏🙏🙏
-
Imagine seeing yourself in the CCTV footage, learning you walked right past him and never knew.
-
Here's the horror: someone, somewhere is currently plotting to outdo this.

2 of my family members were there. I'm glad they're ok. One broke her foot trying to hop over a fence to get away. She said amidst the panic, people stopped to rob the cash registers before attempting escape.

I was in LV a week later and took the time to visit the makeshift memorial at the Las Vegas sign. Very moving. Oct.11 I was at the "D" downtown watching the Indians-Yankees game and a guy sat down next to me and we started talking. He said he was just so relieved to get an evening off of work to relax, his work had been very busy lately. He said he worked at the Las Vegas morgue. Suddenly I was more interested in talking to this stranger than watching the ballgame. One of the things he told me was that a lot more of the people died from being trampled to death than from being shot.

I will never wrap my brain around why he needed every piece of his arsenal with him. He did not use but barely a 4th of it. It was like he just wanted to show how easy it is to bring that many weapons into a Vegas hotel.
-
I don’t know how someone can be so dedicated to taking the lives of strangers
-
the most chilling aspect of this is how little we know
-
It’s weird how a person can act so normal but inside their head never knew what kind of devil stuff they’re about to do.
-
I think one of the most disturbing things about this case is how premeditated it is.
-
I feel like this tragedy was completely forgotten really quickly
-
I think this might just be the most chilling video on all of Youtube. Like it is so well made and at the same time, its so disturbing and horrible what happened.
-
excellent reportage 👌
-
The most unsuspecting people could end up being your worse nightmare.
-
Imagine how guilty the bellman felt when he realized he dropped off all those guns
-
