  • @victoryrider16 thank you so much for clarifying that this is fake. I literally had NO idea this wasn't real.

  • shes going to the 2012 olympics IDIOTS

  • Wouldn't her parents be crying tellin that interview about there dead child!?!? So fake. I mean, she's goin for 2012 olympics

  • for all of you dumbasses out there, its a joke. they're pointing out how gymnasts work like hoses horses. thus the "stall" and him going out to "exercise her" geez people are so dumb

  • WTH did I just watch?!?

  • i think this is funny the way they are talking

  • Why do a video like that somewhere a girl might of lost her live by doing gymnastics and they make a fake video rip if there has been anyone who has died from gynmastics this is so sick

  • @recalcitrist1 she is ALIVE!! If you dont know that you are obviosly dumb i know what im talking about she still writes in her blog

  • @huskyheart101 Sorry to break the news to you, but that's an imposter who's writing the blog.

    Poor Shawn is in a much better place now, competing with all the other dead gymnasts in the 2012 Heaven Olympics.

  • FAKE shes alive and training for 2012 summer olympics...DUH

  • @458hellokitty this whole thing is sarcastic, all of them are actors, even the gymnast girl its not real, its a joke, a sick one but its fae

  • you people are f*****g sick if you would ever do that to a 17 year old girl and even if her death is all a fake and she still alive i cant even think of how you can keep a smile on talking about your daughter death you guys are f******g asses

  • @458hellokitty they are actors Doug and Terry Johnson look completly different :D

  • shes not dead you idiots

  • Do ya wanna see some hot sex tapes?

    You can see a whole bunch of them ovr at this website over here!! WatchCelebSexTapes. com

  • they treat her like a horse. this breaks my heart. </3

  • Wow. I am surprised that I am not asleep. THAT'S WHAT NORMALLY HAPPENS WHEN PEOPLE TELL FAIRYTALES!!!

  • I think this is a fucked up video. Not because of the fake death of Shawn, but because it turns a real ethic issue in to a joke. I mean, I get it's The Onion Network and they do jokes for a living, but still. Euthanasia is not simple at all and all you people care is to argue about is she is dead or not. She's not, but tell me, do you know what euthanasia is? Is it legal where you live? Watch Terry Pratchett's "Choosing to die" video and hopefully you'll learn something...

  • I don't understand why so many people are angry about this. She broke her leg, so she would have lived a terrible, painful, unhappy life.

    They did the humane thing and ended her suffering by putting her to sleep.

    R.I.P. Shawn.....we love you soooo much (*_~)

  • @recalcitrist1 shes not dead

  • @jcmcn61 Oh yea?....sez you!

  • LMFAO! I laughed so hard when i read the title, then the notes XD. Epic, i love shawn! Cant wait to see her in 2012 Olympics :D

  • The Onion News Network is not a real news network! They do satire; seriously, The Onion has been around for years. It's tragic how many people mistake it for actual news.

  • Of course this is real, you sheeple are just being duped by the mass gymnastics conspiracy. The "Shawn Johnson" you see today is obviously an android; you can tell by touching her cold hard metal skin. Did you ever come in physical contact with her? Didn't think so. Morons.

  • This is so fake

  • @rukisgymnastics and those arent even her parents

  • @rukisgymnastics It's The Onion. Of course it's fake.

  • It's onion news network they always do fake shit

  • This is fucking fake every one knows that because Shawn attended the 2011 VISA championships and I know this is true because I saw her compete there and I got her autograph!

  • @iloveshawnjohnson121 did you grab a titty?

  • Some people on this video commenting are down right stupid.... They seriously think this is real...

  • @kourtneybff1 they probably think wrestling and god are real, too.

  • @tommymonsternz lol. I know, but don't say god people will start a huge argument. -_-'

  • And then she really did mess up her knee lol

  • it sounds like she is some animal not who she is

  • What the fuck? They make her sound like a dog instead of a person!

  • @TheThrownChair That's the joke.

  • Rucka Rucka Ali: she was only 17

  • @legowarrior1233 Holy shit.

  • she's not dead

  • @chachacami its faaaakkkeee

  • is it wrong for me to think that this is funny?

  • haaaaa, so many morons makes a lame day awesome.

  • Fake...

    \

  • @ShaolinDragon9 OH SHIT, seriously? Thank god ShaolinDragon9 is here to uncover the truth!

  • Shawn Johnson is really hot.

  • I love Shawn Johnson, but I have to admit this was pretty funny.

  • That's not even her real parents you idiots! They photoshopped those two actors into the photos. latimesblogs*latimes*com/olymp­ics_blog/2008/06/johnson-famil­y*html

  • SHE AINT DEAD!!!!!!!!

    

  • This is a pretty fucke up video because they are convincing people that she actually died

  • @MrJNGuyXD You are dumb. That is all.

  • The comments here are so depressing...

  • Biggest tragedy since what happened to that former Kentucky Derby winner Ferdinand. If you find a Japanese brand dog chow, it's made with real Derby winner!

  • @Ali619r u r an idiot

  • LMFAOOO do people think this is real?? XD

  • Who are her parents? A couple of desk jockeys?

  • that is sad... ...i think it should illegal to do that... ...but i also understand why her parents did it...

  • I am so sorry for her. Feel BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • umm this is fake she is still training.. AND ALIVE!

  • Yes, this is a good decision. It would have been expensive to keep a lame gymnast.

  • @komiradTV you are wrong she is a very talented gymnast

  • Right this is stupid there are actualy people here who think this is real. They must be smart. Not. Those aren't even shawms parents.

  • No way is this for real? I didn't even know Shawn Johnson broke her knee but it's just bullshit if the parents euthanize her and tell the media about it. Wtf?! It makes sense to euthanize her but they were way too calm in interview. Wow...what people will do just to be noticed ...sad :/

  • @cassie0sassie I see nothing wrong here. She's not good for making sandwiches, or making money with a broken leg.

  • Wtf she is still Fucken alive

  • Her parents made a good decision. After breaking her leg, Shawn's life would have been worthless because her heart and soul was totally involved in being an Olympic athlete, and she would have been depressed and suicidal about not being able to compete..

    Not only that.....do you realize how expensive it is to keep a crippled gymnast and pay for her mental health problems?

  • @recalcitrist1 This is fake. She is alive and training for the 2012 Olympics. She also tore her ALC skiing not doing gym. That is also not even her real parents

  • @JaycePetersonTV Shirley you jest! I'm sorry that you can't face the fact that poor Shawn has left the earth and is now competing in heaven against all the other dead gymnasts.

    Unfortunately, the girl who you believe is alive and training for the 2012 Olympics is actually an imposter, a despicable person who's perpetrating a terrible hoax on nice people such as yourself.

  • Right this is stupid as people are believing this, they must be really smart not. Those aren't even shawms parents

  • wow pardon my choice for words but ur ful of shit! good try tho

  • hope for more great success after i saw her performed, visa championsip 2011

  • I totally agree. It was necessary to put her down because, like they said, after she broke her leg she would've never been the same again. Sure she may have won a bronze every now and then but parents who invest in the care and upkeep of an olympic gymnast are in it only for the gold.

  • Ali619r you r a jerk u don't have the right to call me that and she is still alive

  • Lol people are so stupid these days, no shit that this video is fake. It's what The Onion does.

  • Sooo stupid she is still alive

    Those are FAKE parents!!!

    CHILD ABUSE

  • @azkate08 you are an idiot

  • What does it mean like she is "put to sleep"

    

  • wouldn't've happened if she were potty-trained properly, and hadn't started gymnastic too soon. parents engaged in cover up. typical

  • if she had some tits, it might have been fun to fuck her... ...but like this - i can see why they put her down...

  • XD THIS IS SO FUNNY U ALL THINK SHE DIED

  • Ok she is not dead if u go on her other videos she is alive f this retarded video

  • All the other gymnast are running around grazing on the mats and Shawny Is in the stables

  • SHE IS ALIVE !!! How else would she have been on dancing with the stars !! ( i did believe it for a bit at first though) .

  • Oh my God, this is horrible!

    R.I.P. Shawn.....we'll miss you soooo much.

  • @logansGT shes alive dumb fuck XD

  • Dont kill her! Fuck no! Keep her alive!

  • I can't believe people actually believed this. She's 19 and alive.

  • ".....it doesn't make sense to keep her alive, plus it's very expensive to keep a lame gymnast."

    That's so true. It would have been such a hardship on the parents.

  • fuck all you shawn johnson is the best gymnast ever she inspires me fuck all of u

  • We never got to breed her. LOL

  • I love this. It shows how cruel people are for killing race horses for the same thing.

  • @theknightlynews how can you compare a horse with a human being???? 

  • @cecreyes Simple. A horse no more wants, or deserves, to be "put to sleep" than a gymnast. They fear death as much as you and have just as much right to die of natural causes as any gymnast. Would you want a horse to shoot you in the head because you broke your leg? The horse didn't ask to be ridden, didn't ask to have its leg broken, and certainly didn't ask to be put in the shot in the head.

  • "It's tough when you have to put a gymnast to sleep" -Complete rofl All time You Tube classic. relax people,it's just a joke.

  • What the heck!!!!! OMG these people r soooo stupid! Shes not dead!!!!

  • omg? is this for real?? what the hell why are they killing her just because she broke leg????? Wow serously?  they gone to far..

  • @ajgurung7 Of course they put her to sleep. She was a gymnast so once she broke her leg there wasn't much she could do. Whats the problem with that?

  • I can't believe they would kill that poor girl! Death to white people!

  • Wow, no wonder so many shit-filled politicians are elected - so many people are gullible. O.o

  • Years later, and this is still funny as hell.

  • This is sick and disturbing, you people need a life.

  • lmao

  • @thedarkdragon thanks fuck face never knew that and maybe u should think before u say shit to me....but i understand im still young and u just dont know that

  • So dark

  • u ppl are fucked up dont u know i believed you for the longest time....dont u no uthinising ppl is illegal also u ppl are retarded get ur facts straight if u want to do comedy

  • @kikoonthemove human euthanasia is legal in the U.S. as long as it is voluntary, notably Washington and Oregon, it is however illegal to end a persons life in-voluntarily, maybe do some research before shooting your mouth off, with euthanasia is illegal for humans, you need some insight to the world around you, also the onion news network is a satirical take on the news, satire can be dark, it can get very dark at times, just remember it's a joke and learn to laugh

  • jesus christ and holy hell this scared the shit out of me. for god's sake. please make it more obvious that this is fake. man my heart almost stopped.

  • seriously is this a JOKE?

  • @ames184 Yes. It is a joke.

  • wuahahahaha it a horse? LOL

  • jajajajajajajjaaja fucking bastarddddddds

  • es una locura...estan locos!!!!!!!

  • es una locura...estan locos!!!!!!!

  • this is fake news .... she didn't break her knee on bars and these are not her real parents!!!!!!!!

  • Wow. Why is it that every time I go to watch a video of ONN saying something bizarre and/or hilarious, I always see comments of 2 or more fucktards arguing to each other as if they have any idea of what the fuck they're talking about.

  • How come she is going to be in the 2012 Olympics?

  • glue factory... just saying.. its a better option :D

  • Youtube arguments should be taken into private messages.

  • thts not a lucky 4 year old!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @cheeseproductions00 .....you do realize the Onion is comedy and not real...right? Retard.

  • who those r mean parets!!!!!!!! they say... "there's really no reason to keep her alive!!!"

  • How many times do I have to say. This video is fake. If u type in shawn Johnston profile video and watch it u can see those where not her parents.

  • Poor Shawn, what a shame she had great potential.

  • I watched her last night ..... She only hurt her knee she has it wrapped up

  • What sort of gun did they use?

  • i love how those arent even her parents :P but ya everyone chill, its fake. :P

  • Beyond making hilarious fake news stories, the Onion uses irony as a way to make a point about mass media and modern perceptions of things. In real life, people put a hygienic face on cruelty more commonly than they would like to realize. Is this a joke about horse racing, or a jab at the way people try to make themselves feel better by smiling and using political correctness to avoid ugly topics? Beneath the Onion's funny is just a touch of intended seriousness, I think.

  • this is bullshit

  • this is stupid!!!!!

  • lmao a u had me going for a min they are talking about a horse or dog....

  • wow

  • THIS IS MAKING FUN OF HORSE RACING. NOBODY DIED.

    I don't like thumbs-whoring, but bring this up so people can see.

  • OMG I didn't believe this for 1 second, ppl need to stop joking around, i'm a gymnast and i take it very seriously and if i saw this video of me i probably woudn't be very happy, and for the ppl who acctually believe this, DONT!

  • I do not understand how most of you don't grasp that this is a video from THE ONION. Fake news. Comedy. Jeez.

  • @Gymnastics4evaa THE ONION.

  • thats not even her parents ! they have wigs on obviously.

  • what is that???

  • It's a good thing they put her to sleep, she would have suffered and she would no longer be of any use, so she would just be expensive to maintain.

    God bless the onion for bringing light on such a serious situation.

    I hope you all keep this is mind.. a quick shot to the back of the head and it will all be over, pain free.

  • Wow this is sooo stupid and fake!!!! O and by th way the jamieblond1 or whatever the name is so freakin stupid!!

  • This is fake as if u look at shawms profile video on YouTube u can see that those r not her parents.

  • fuck no

  • @Gymnastics4evaa Good job! You really are the brightest bulb arent you!? 

  • I wonder how shawn felt about this. I woulden't like to have news said about me that i was dead. Those are not even her real parents. And she is training for 2012 right now.

  • @gymbert13 THE ONION. Fake news. Jesus.

  • She's not dead people, she just competed in the covergirl classic a few days ago.

  • Poor Shawn I loved Her She Was And Is Amazing

  • OMG THESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY WHO PUTS A GIRL TO SLEEP JUST BECASUE SHE CANT COMPETE!!! WOW THOSE PEOPLE ARE SORRY IT JUST DOESNT MAKE SENSE TO ME

  • @coweycow Please stop shouting.....it's giving me a headache.

  • @jamieblond1 haha im sorry for using caps :)

  • @coweycow Two things id like you to do. First, grow a brain. Second, do you see on the left side of the keyboard there i a key that says, Caps Lock? Yeah, push it.

  • @PACHONGA9 im sorry if i made u mad. and i do have a brain i may not be the smartest but i am one of the nicest people u will ever meet :)

  • Karl Koch, Tron, Martina Pflock, Heiner Gehring, Kirsten Heisig, Bernd Seiffert Fritz Bauer (prosecutor of the Frankfurt Auschwitz processes), Jürgen Möllemann, Uwe Barschel and my brother Markus Bott.

    These authors, human rights and internet activists have been murdered by the German BND, the renamed GESTAPO. If my homepage disappears, the BND will have assassinated me too.

    BND snitchers are thumbing me down. Thumbs up if you want the German BND to stop systematic torture and assassination.

  • Haha Jamiblond1 is sooo stupidd..! That's not even Shawns parents! you really think her parents are going to be on a news show just hours after their daughter died? Wow, they're so dressed up and looking nice, they edited the photo too. This was funnnyy, It gave me a BIG laugh. That was HILARIOUS!

  • @michaelbublefan88 Who's Michael Bubble? I did a Google search, (and Google knows everything,) but I couldn't find Michael Bubble.

    I did find lots and lots of Michaels and bubbles, though :o)

  • @jamieblond1 It's with ONE b you moron, not two. and your deliberately changing the subject, which is funny, now that I have proof that this so called The Onion is lying. You jealous, poor miserable soul. Shawn doesn't want people to be so disturbed that they don't have her talent that they are willing to waste hours on end of their stupid time to spread lies and rumors about her. You poor thing! Now, do us all a break and get the crap off of youtube!! k?? o&he's a singer search on youtube!!

  • @michaelbublefan88 Au contraire, mon frere! 'Bubble' is obviously spelled with 2 'b's.

    Did you ever hear of a song called, "I'm Forever Blowing Bubles?" Of course not, because he was forever blowing BUBBLES!

    And btw, stop saying that the Onion lies. It's the most honest and trustworthy news in the world. I wish that all the news stations were just like Onion News. Wouldn't that be a wonderful world, where we wouldn't have to wonder who to trust?

  • @jamieblond1 MICHAEL BUBLE is spelled with 1 b you obviously have to go back to Kindergarten if you don't get that. And, no, the Onion is not truthful, as is I did research as "The Onion" said that they are a publicity show, that makes things up. Thank you. And get off of youtube, as I have stated before and so have many others.

  • @michaelbublefan88 You keep telling me to "get off YouTube." Who do you think you are, the YouTube Police?

    This is obviously something that should be investigated. Onion News should do an expose' on you and the rest of your fascist YouTube friends. People like you are clearly a danger to truth, justice and the American way.

  • @jamieblond1 Your messing with a 13 year old girl when your probably a middle aged manly hobo stoker?! And your trying to threaten me? Really? I've seen other videos of your comments and how your trying to spread the word that Shawns dead, when she obviously isn't. If you really think she's dead, then go ahead and believe it, but leave us alone! You are truly stupid, and need medical care! Best wishes to you, you poor gullible soul. If your smart, you will not reply to this respons&leave mealone

  • @michaelbublefan88 Omg, you're 13 years old? I guess that explans a lot. I thought you were an uneducated, unwed mother on welfare.

    Btw, I'll have you know that you're messing with an educated, strong young American female, not a "middle aged manly hobo stoker." What's with this 'hobo' thing? I'm not homeless, you little twit.

    Have a nice day (*_~)

  • @jamieblond1 ...wow.....thats awesome :)

  • @jamieblond1 wow u really are a blonde...lol no stereotyping you give bad name to blondes(not blond) everywhere.

    "clearly a danger to the American way"? wow u think u represent americans haha ure a dumb one..again no stereotyping you give a badder name for Americans everywhere. wow you're horrible.

    This is a publicity new channel you should look at their site, their channel on here and use common sense to tell it's fake. Go sob in a corner and look more dumb than you already are.

  • @miguel061 Don't hold back, tell me how you REALLY feel.

  • The Onion: A lesson is critical thinking  "Kids Edition"

    Chapter 1. "Why am I angry, lashing out at strangers, and unable to perceive anything that deals with death/my favorite sport calmly?" or the "I'm easily swayed by my initial reaction and will settle with 'oh, it's fake.' to bury malice with festering, malefic indifference.

    Chapter 2. Becoming delusional: the consequences of indifference by way of willful ignorance. (I'm right, I don't need it, and I just just forget it)
