  • @rickythompsonfilms thank you

  • The scenes with the Trade Center - especially with the person who jumped- is still too difficult for me to watch.

  • @Shanedoowson The video is balanced- the 9/11 attacks were bad, clearly, but then avenged by bin laden's death and the uplifting speech Bush gave at ground Zero. The Challenger blowing up clip is balanced by the landing on the moon. Martin Luther King's speech is balanced later by the clip of Obama becoming the first Black President. It's meant to show that for every bad thing, there is good. :-)

  • @Shanedoowson The point was to start with the bad and progress into the good. It's 'great events' in the last 100 years- read the description. If it was you who hit the 'dislike' button please like it lol, the point was to give a good feeling by the end!
