Where Were You When You Heard The News? - "Chasing Diana" - Princess Diana

Uploaded by chasingdiana on Feb 22, 2011
Where were you when you heard the news that Princess Diana was killed? Most everybody has an answer, but nobody has an answer quite like Robin & Jack Firestone.
The Firestones, and their young son Brandon, were inside the Alma Tunnel, in Paris, during the early morning hours of August 31, 1997, just moments after Princess Diana's fatal car crash, and well before the ambulance arrived on the scene. What the Firestones witnessed was absolute carnage: an overly aggressive, zealous and frenzied paparazzi madly snapping pictures of the smashed Mercedes and its doomed passengers, as well as the apathetic French policemen who were conveniently on the scene, letting the photographers have a field day.
In honor of what would have been the 50th Birthday of Princess Diana (born July 1, 1961), the Firestones present their newly released e-book "CHASING DIANA: INSPIRED BY OUR TRUE STORY." They are the only American eyewitnesses to this most tragic of car crashes, and this book gives them at least some semblance of closure.
An innocent accident or a major conspiracy?
"The inquest, the verdict, the book," says Robin, "...it's all closure for us. Now, it's up to the readers to decide."

Oh for fuck sake. Why does EVERYTHING have to be a conspiracy with Americans.
I suppose Diana was killed by the same crowd who flew robot airliners into the bomb-filled Twin Towers, while shooting JFK from 3 directions at once, while faking the Nazi holocaust, while pretending to send people to the moon, and on and on and on...

I was 4 years old at the time this happened, so I was too young to remember that day.

I was staying with my dad. It happened the night before I was due to fly to Italy to begin teaching English abroad. I turned on the radio in the morning, heard the news and for a moment my blood ran cold.I was shocked more than anything.

I was seven years old when it happened. now I truly know more about her missions to give her heart to the world, especially to all children in this world. sometimes I was crying when I see her videos while around the world and her last hour at France. I just ask question to the god, Why she must died like that? she's an angel, why must like that? I really sad about her died. :(

I was eating breakfast on our boat with my family. It was a beautiful day. We were celebrating my mom's birthday. Suddenly we heard on the radio that "Diana, Princess of Wales, has been killed in a car crash last night." Even at age 10, I remember thinking, "Oh God, What about the boys?!" I've never forgotten my thoughts or the feeling of loneliness and sadness I felt for Princes Harry and William. My she R.I.P.
