  • why didnt they send in the sas to defuse the bomb lol

  • 0:10-0:26 WALL-E is coming!! Quick, before he does something stu...KABOOOM!

  • Damn it. Was there no chance to remove the bomb from the truck and let it explode in the air? Like pick it up with a heli and then detonate it in the air? This city is beautiful it does not deserve this.

  • Not sticking up for the ira,well,not the latterday ira anyway but Manchester got massive investment as a result so you could say the ira did Manchester a favour,many people say that.

  • @peaceman1234567 They could have parked in the Arndale carpark instead. Hideous concrete monstrosity.

  • u know this way is much more effective for roadworks lol

  • I bet they were pissed about losing their fancy robot...

  • theres steven hawking at 26 secs rushing over to try and defuse the bomb haha

  • And the slimmer of the year award goes to........

    Bobby Sands.

    What a guy! saved the prison service thousands.

    And so did his mates....

  • I was in Arndale centre when this happened... I think I was 4... :/

  • real irishmen are at least willing to support the efforts people make to make this country be AS IT SHOULD BE

    tíocfaidh ar lá

  • mick your a gimp and a typical example of a free stater who's happy now with evrything down south but theres NO Ireland without the North of Ireland so remember when you fly your flag make sure you hear the song loud and clear in your head "take it down from the mast irish traitors" because its people like you who would watch their bestfriend get battered to death just as long as your safe and well.. my point being: you aint irish if u allow britian to rule part of ur country.

  • WELL SAID

  • why does everyone say that there DADDY was just around the corner when that bomb went off surely they would have been killed.

  • when did this happen???

  • 15th June 1996

  • 15th June 1996

  • thanks ira. manchester had a facelift out of that.better than ever.thick twats!!!

  • up the ra they aint gone away you no

  • murdering scum,speaking bout your own government there are you.your gov killed more irish peole in 800 years than the ira did

  • hahaha, i agree, the irish done more harm to themselves than we did.the silly old fools.plague on his country???how old is this guy.he's probably upset cus his ma's a drunk his da's in jail and his 12 year old pregnant sister is up the spout and he can get a job.look at his name.... piggy1.hahahaha

  • Am i the only one who feels bad on the robots behalf?!

  • At least they called...

  • hey shithead your government killed hundreds of irish women and children over the years and have been a plague on my country for 800 years.you got a tatse of your own medicine in my opinion.anyway nobody was killed that day it was an economic target.good op from the boys of south armagh,tiocfaidh ar la

  • yeah but some people in this country had nothing to do with it - why should they get killed with a bomb?? My dad was around the corner on that day. HE could have been killed.

  • wow good auld racism huh?? the wealth came from foreign investment by mainly American companies thanks to tax cuts offered to them by the Irish government. Not to mention a highly educated, young, english speaking workforce located in the EU. thats why you imbecile.

  • The destruction of a town cases millions in losses to the UK, these bombs rarely, if ever killed civilians as warnings were always given. I dont find peoples deaths funny, unlike you, the only person whos death ever amused me was Billy Wrights. Whats the difference between Billy Wright and a mini???? a mini can take 3 in the back!

  • Ireland is a net contributor to the EU, not a beneficiary you moron.

  • The UVF killed innocent people. Type in "Loyalists' and look at the type o people you support you imbecile.

  • makes me so upset seeing those images being from manchester and being proud of manchester but we won we re built I LOVE MANCHESTER

  • best thing to happen to manchester. not one casualty and a brand new ton centre. ;)

  • makes me so upset seeing those images being from manchester and being proud of manchester but we won we re built I LOVE MANCHESTER

  • wow so you avoid the point i made due to a typing error. thick cunt. gain I'll ask you, when did Cavan Monaghan and Donegal (all in Ulster) become part of the UK?

  • whats that shopping trolley doin in the road!!!!!

  • This was an economic target. To try and hurt the economic interests of the oppressors both home and abroad.

  • no1 even died from that anyway!!

  • thats because the IRA always gave warnings to clear the place. they didnt want any civilians to be killed their old motto was "we want everyone watching, but nobody dead". Tony Blair once described them as "good terrorists" IE: terrorists with a conscience

  • Really?? When did Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan join the UK???? Auld Paisley sold you down the river. a united Ireland is coming, you cant stop the tide!!! a United Ireland by 1016 is 10/1 in the bookies. I might stick a few bob on it

  • no the bomb was intended for a military patrol the next day. the IRA never targeted innocent people.

  • thats coz the RUC radios set i off accidentally

  • no point in discussing it wae they proddy scum ,`go soirbhidh` tiochfaidh`ar la`

  • Tiocfaidh ár lá.

  • Tiocfaidh ár lá!!!

  • The Irish gave you warnings back in the day. Muslims will blow you up without telling you.

  • The IRA gave no more warnings than Ian Brady & Mira Hindley. All were child killers. All were beaten in the end.

  • Yes. And you have the logic of a bumble-bee with learning disabilities.

    Pull your head out of your arse.

    We won.

    Tiocfaidh ár lá.

  • i hope the ira plant plent more of these bombs.they are true heroes

  • IRA are dead

  • hahahhahahahaha idiot.

    They are on a ceasefire. you really think they destroyed all there weapons?? if they did why is their entire command structure in place? if they wanted to, they could go back to war within 3 months, fact.

  • The liars. Cheek of them. To me they might as well be dead. The Brits are still there you know. What are they doing sitting on their arses in the UK. They happy there these days?

  • they are making millions by running he country. turning it into an economic success, because in about 12 years the brit loyalists will be outnumbered in the north and a referendum can be called

  • If they go back to war will they be more honourable this time and wear uniforms? Or just pretend to be civilians and cry foul when the children they hide behind get shot. As much as I don't like Iraqi terrorists at least some of them have the balls do stand up and fight.

  • a dont think use can call the ira terrorists there

    the reawson 4 this was because the soldiers in northern ireland agreed to a seecfire but they broke it twice

    resulting in the ira blowing up london dock and emolishing manchester centre

    but if they were th errorists u say they are y did they give a warning before the bomb and y did the soldiers break the seacfire and no the ira

    tiocfaidh ar la

  • Fuckoff ira99 you tit they would probably strap a device to you just to get rid of you. i'm manchester born lad but i will still admit that all the violence stirred up in this world is so goverments create rules more crime more police power terrorism =fear terriosts paid off humongous sums of cash later becoming politicians all the while not a 1 of give a flying fuck about us living the normal lives in peace.

  • the ira are heroes for bombing these cunts they shoukd really start again.

  • Bang, and the dirt is gone!!

  • remember milltown!

  • yes i remember milltown, the loyalists showed how "brave" they were that day didnt they? shooting into a crowd of mourners as they lowered the body of young Mairead Farrell into her grave. youre nothing but a waste of life.

  • your all filth. you were a minority and did not have majority support so you planted some bombs, shot some innocents then took bribes from the government to stop. real brave i must agree. if you didn't have getto mentality you'd realise normal people deplore all violence

  • i believe the majority of people in Ireland are Republicans.

    actually the IRA shot less innocents than any other group. the majority of the people they killed were british security forces. normal people deplore violence that has no justification. theres a difference

  • no the people who was going to bomb gibralter are .. and you complain about the " shoot on sight " .. I cant beileve the irish police actually soluted the car as it drove to belfast , they was going to kill INNOCENT people .. and remember micheal stone did this in retaliation to enniskillen and la mon.

    are yes your correct loyalists are brave , the odds was agaisnt him and even the getaway driver didnt turn up , yes micheal stone was brave

  • F.T I.R.A Moan the UVF - RFC #1

  • who r yas like fs the ira is known worldwide for their bravery but the uda like fukin hell im nat to sure any1 in england has even herd of it use fukin pathetic cunts

    use murderd more protestants than the ira or any other catholic organisation did

    cfc#1

  • did you see the news today, it turns out that the inner council of the UDA has at least two touts in it. no wonder they coulnt do anything besides murder innocent catholic teenagers

  • up the ira i hope they keep on bombing u

  • this video isnt that scarywe had to watch it in geography

    and i thought the bomb was that thing coming down the road :(

    and then my teacher told me

    it scares the shit out of me

    someone on here said that its something setting off the bomb

    i got told its the police robot trying to destroy it???

  • its called the weelbarrow, and its callsign is FELIX.

  • It was a joke

  • me and me mum are both irish we were there in the city that day, I was 6 years old, what did we do?

  • It was mobbed, the IRA, being of a much more civilised people than you, gave out a warning first because they didn't want to harm innocents.

  • not far from the point, when forces occupy a country you will always be met by resistance i would like to know your thoughts on mr mandela or have you just hit the panic button you see he planted a bomb in a city centre and now hes a hero why is this can you enlighten please

  • The guy in the motorised wheelchair wasnt expecting that!!

  • That was Stephen Hawkins

  • haha

  • Omfg Manquinians Wud Fuking Kill The Irish Cùnts WankPots

  • Stupid Fucking Irish Wankers, I was in town when it happened, i was only 4years old! Stupid Fucking Pricks! But luckily the irish are soooo thick that they didn't manage to kill anyone! Fucking IRA cowards!

  • ...don't fuck with the Irish.

  • What are they going to do? Throw potatoes or leprechauns at us?

  • Actually they run out of leprechauns a long time ago...NOW THEY ARE THROWING BOMBS AS SHOWN HERE.

  • IRA COWARDS.

  • Death to the bomber who did this. I don't like al;l the thing Britain has done in Northern Ireland, but nothing justifys a bomb like this.

  • Manchester will always live on!

  • IRA batty creases ;)

  • haha!!! cooooolllllllll

  • i was like 7 wen i heard a bang, love you manc!

  • yeah Irish repuplic

  • god damned Irish bastards Thats my hometown, and I was 3 at the time...

  • This bomb actually did the centre of Manchester a favour in the long term, as it was as a result of the rebuilding after the bomb that a large part of the city centre got renovated and modernised

  • Manchester, my home town, like a pheonix from the flames. Another dumb-arse terrorist who managed to get his caveman brain around a bomb making manual, managed to acheive absolutley nothing, well done, du'h.

  • You ignorant fuck!

  • Somewhere in all that carnage a red letter box is just stood there...

    Those three inch thick cast iron bastards survive anything.

    If i thought there was a big frigging bomb nearby, thats what id hide in.

  • lol. I wouldn't look out of the letterbox though otherwise I'd melt my eyes.

  • I would like to thank the IRA for giving the peole of Manchester (the greatest city in the world) a helping hand in creating our fantastic city. YOu did us all a massive favour, Nobody will ever destroy the pride of Mancunians!

  • UP THE IRA

  • The ira do not represent the irish people. If they did I would tear up my Irish pasport.

  • Are you a social unapproved or do you have problems with your parents or authorithy?.>...POOR GUY!.You really deserve mercy and seek spiritual help.I will not to reply your coomments.HASTA NUNCA ESTUPIDO INADAPTADO!

  • learns some fucking english you inbred cunt!

  • cold 1410 , why dont you go and get job for your self and tell your mates to go and get some reading and spelling lessons , and next tuesday night when you and your little lager scum national front guys get together in a shed somewhere in peckham or somewhere just pause for a minute and ask youselfs ,what have i ever done to help england , i already know the answer....

  • All terrorists don't deserve mercy. They kill inocent people and nobody shouldn't think that they are heroes.

  • Well no one died here did they... sorta messes your argument up a bit!

  • My question is...If the terrorists don't want kill or injure INNOCENT people what is purpose to set explosives in a building? Why do they cause damages in buildings, trains, o place crawded of people? Is a heroic act destroying building or killing people?. I don't have a easy life. I work 11 hours in a factory and than go university 7 hours for five days a week and I know that I need to be better in spelling. English isn't my native leguage and I am learning.

  • Up The 'RA.

  • they are worth more money then you per head, and they built there wealth, instead of stealing it from other nations.

    how ever I'm not saying I support any rebel group, I simply stateing your racist

  • without england u wudnt hav computers wich leads on2 consoles u wudn`t hav the toilet u wuln`t hav the train iland wud stil b like cavemen and alcoholics o w8 they stil r i was @ the manchester bomb cn i was 1 of the few people 2 b severely injured n u think the irish r angels let me name a few sins that ilands dun kild 2 children in the wythenshawe bomings the ira wer an irish army yet the ira bomed dublin belfast cork they r al bad drivers

  • For every child that died regretably due to IRA actions there is fifty that died at the hands of the British Army, I'm sure the british were so proud of killing irish children! The IRA are not the only ones with blood on their hands and not one british soldier has or ever will be convicted in the courts for what they did. Any attempts to bring the truth to light are stopped, Stalker Report? NI Ombudsman Investigations? UK got what it deserved, we stood up to them.

  • so your proud to be a racist?

    woopdie dooo, your proud your soldiers shot children in the streets in other countries?

    all I can say is luckily I aint you

  • You clearly don't have a clue do you? Racist? Irish Republicans aren't racist, they are angry at centuries of oppression, discrimination and the UK's refusal to return the birth right of their state and there children, a united free Ireland. Just because you are angry at someone doesnt mean your racist, i'm sure u hate murderers, paedophiles etc. by your thinking that makes you racist!

  • <Fade>

  • <Fade>

  • Well gold star in the post now .You learnt from your previous mistakes

  • You do know that the people in ireland are white

  • "dirty whores to" stop in mid sentence or something.

  • You are calling the Irish thick and you a 32 year old cant even spell your own language correctly

  • THICK

  • POTATOES YOURSELVES 800 YEARS

  • POTATOES okay u got it

  • i was right you really are a dumb cunt , we had no chioce but to give you the north or you were not going to fuck off , like i said before go and learn your history and then come back to me cause if you think england did nothing wrong to ireland you have serious problems ,your british and proud sure the queens family came from germany , you are stupid fuck

  • yeah battles to weaker countries , when you battles us we didnt even have an army , you are either one of 3 things , a member of the national front , a teenage sympathiser , or a dumb fuck , or all three , no one from ireland is proud of the way things were handled by the more recent ira ,but no one will ever forgive you for what you did to us , bit im thinking you should go and read some books for yourself and learn your history

  • the brits tried to take over the world and came to ireland and burned us out while we all starved ,the english are wanted no where in the world as a result of thugs , EVILWEEVIL how many children died in irish work houses and of starvation , there is only one reason england has stuck its nose into the iraq war , and that is you had to have america backing you up ,because it was only a matter of time before some country fucks ye up....

  • Anyone who supports the IRA, supports terrorism. The Warrington bomb in 1993 killed two children. I'd like to see an IRA supporter defend that.

  • No retard, those were people who went to protest, and that was London alone. There were protests all over the world and the UK. Just becuase people didnt go to the protest doesnt mean that they supported it. Apart from Blair and Bush i actually cant think of anyone else who openly supported it. So dont use this crappy "you support the killing of innocents (just like the IRA) because your countries army is in Iraq" with me cos no one here has or will ever support it.

  • WRONG! sorry but thats bullshit! before the start of the war, there was a record protest of over 1 million people. thats about 1 in 45 people actively taking part in the protests. Out of all the people i know i only knew one person so supported it, out of about 200 people. No one wanted to go to war so dont pin that on the English people, only the british government thats all.

  • best thing to happen to manchester ever kick started the regeneration

  • totally agree mate.............top City in Europe now

  • Wait, your right, you can use that arguement because its true but i can take the moral high ground if i dont support the war in Iraq. I promise you, about 95% of people in England are anti war. well over 70% of us despise the government in power. So i dont think your arguement can be aimed at me, just my country's government. Lastly even though the army is killing civilians it still doesnt delberatlely go out to target them, unlike the I Ran Away!

    p.s you sound like a un-educated moron!

  • i know wer ur from becoz u said dat>>> a few comments ago on dis video =P ''italian7777, Why don't you go fuck ur mum? racist bastard... & i'm English, not even Irish''

  • jbarsh i didnt mean 2 say typical british bastards ur not all like dat fukin italian7777 idiot

  • hold on, i know the issue very well. Sounds like you dont know the British very well. We dont get threatened easily. The best way to get independance from the UK is to use peaceful tactics like Ganhdi, the English just dont get scared, look at the blitz, hitler bombed us all day and night, and all that happened was it made the people even more determined to resist him....

  • when the IRA bombed England all it did was make them more determined to hold on to NI. Also meant that the government then couldnt leave NI because it would be giving into the IRA (terrorists) Overall and sorry for the essay, it simply means that the IRA's (I Ran Away) decision to bomb england was retarded.

  • I think England really needs to stop reacting so badly to a bunch of Irish morons who actually think killing people is the best way to win over a countries support in a campaign for a united Ireland. If we just ignored there petty acts of terrorism, then we would have the superior moral high ground, then we could laugh at the IRA all day for its shear retardedness, i mean why cant we have clever terrorists... killing a bunch of English people, thats NOT! going to make them want to give over NI!

  • at the end of the day, ireland is a shithole, and the irish are scum. glad they died in the potato famine. twats.

  • whitlabeldemo ireland isnt a shithole ROI is de richest country in europe now

    NI is a shithole

  • richest country in europe HAHA, your away with the fairies lol germany, france, UK and italy are richest in europe

  • ehhh no der actually not ireland is de richest and we have de best economy

  • think u find that ireland isnt even in the g8 so its so not the richest then..

  • ok wat i meant 2 say was its de richest for its size

    and we have 1 of de best qualitys of life better dan britain anyways xp

  • is that why ireland has the highest crime rate in europe? BTW im not even british

  • i know ur not british but wer de fukk is gibraltar?does ireland really have de highest crime rate?

    der probly just talkin about northern ireland xp

  • probably lol its by spain, northern ireland is a shit house though

  • yea dont ever go 2 NI ive been it aint a pretty site lol.ive heard of gibraltar just never knew wer it was lol

  • what do you mean... no your not, Switzerland is smaller then you.. and they are 2nd richest country in europe. Second up to Norway. Ireland is bigger and is only kept alive by EU grants. Its still very prosperos tho

  • irelands bigger dan switzerland? never knew dat lol and i thought ireland was small

  • well if we owned northern ireland we wud be richer but u stole it

  • "you stole it" no... i think not, the state of Ireland never held it as we recognise it today never held it in the first place. Its been British since the provinces of Ireland were re-drawn centuries back!

  • its part of de fukking island of ireland therefor we shud own it!!!!

  • we're they fuck. Britian, that being England never has any interest in Ireland when the provinces were drawn up as Ireland was nearly as mad is it is today. Constant fueding and fighting over small issues between differnt clans made Ireland too problemitic for England

  • Wow do tell more, your knowledge of the Celtic Tiger is astounding, ya fuckin eejit.

    Up the RA

  • Well despite going to a irish university... doing an irish course and also doing Ireland as an individual history assignment... im in no position to possibly hold a opinion on the celtic nations!

  • Then you'd know that the Free State economy isn't reliant on EU loans and the EU no longer has to ''prop it up'', the state has benefited from such EU loans in the past, moreso than many other member-states, but the Irish economy is hardly in the condition it was in the 70's, 80's and early 90's.

  • Your correct i do know that. The irsh economy has grown leaps and bounds in recent years thatnks to EU money, ok it may not be reliant on EU loans anymore but it still uses them, did you know that Ireland rejected moving the EU money away from Eire to the new eastern european states? Lastly despite this new Ireland, it no where as rich as other (non) EU states like switzerland and Norway!

  • Richest country in Europe??? Richer than it used to be, yes, but richest in Europe, no chance. Perhaps if you visited Ireland rather than fantasyland you might see this.

  • It has the second highest GDP in the world actually, so yes it is the richest country in Europe, and considering I live in Ireland I think I know

  • It may be rich in it's export and imports, but the people of Ireland are hardly seeing a penny of it.

  • hmmm... proves youre no better than Osama bin laden then doesnt it??? where is your american support now ira??? you live for violence just like osama... barmy the lot of you no brain terrorists.

  • Burn in hell all you brit cunts im fucking proud to be irish and a member of the F.C.A i was there too living in prestwish went in to see the damage and it was fucking cool fuck the queen And up the RA!

  • ahh good for you! But at the end of the day you're still a silly bog trotter living in the shadow of our great country.

  • we shud nuke ireland cos thay r all fuckers i hate them cos i lost a mate there

  • hahaha im so glad u lost a mate there!! serves u right for shootin someone cause they didnt take u on u fuckin loser! hope ur mates burnin in hell

  • lick my plums,did ya not try to look for your mate?doh

  • italian7777 fukk off u dirty racist cunt

    typical british bastards

  • irish fucker go fuck your self go fuck your mum !!!!!

  • i shot sum of you fuckers wen i was over there at the time of this Bomb and it was nice to kill fuckers like you my mate shot one in the head on patrol cos he dident take eny notice of us wen we told him to stop so he shot him it was cool cos it was our first kill on patrol

  • A bit of music would have been nice, a light ballad, something soothing

  • Look georges turd, all I am saying, is that the centre of Manchester was worse than Kabul before Adams & co did the business. Speaking of Afghanistan, it's still probably safer than Manchester's ever been.

  • Look you Paddy Bastards. Manchester is bigger and better now than it ever was before your poxy little bomb. It's not our fault Belfast & Dublin are toilets!! Semtex error??

  • THE COST OF HOLDING IRELAND

  • I think Ireland should have independence too, but attacking civilians is simply disgusting. Imagine if the Irish government long ago decided to occupy a foreign land, and people from that foreign land attacked a city close to you and your mum or child died... would you think that was justified? Shoulda attacked Westminster or something.

  • 'Bomb was funded by Marks and Spencers, and the Americans, of course- and British Home Stores.

  • I love this video. This was the moment that started a whole new regeneration of Manchester, making it one of the best cities in the world. Cheers IRA. Shame you didn't manage to kill any of the 80,000 evacuated. You'll burn a little less in hell.

  • The plan wasn't to kill people it was to cost the uk money thats why the IRA gave warnings.
