*russia, according to the watermark

Googling the name on the watermark gives a bunch of different sites devoted to picks and videos of butts. It would seem this is what this particular cameraman does. Well played sir. Well played.

At first I thought, "nah that wouldn't happen in North Carolina," but then I saw the watermark of my local tv station and facepalmed.

Water"mark" or Water"WORLD"?

More compelling film than John Carter

Now there's a high watermark...

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

We're not perfect and as was mentioned this is a gray area. There are reasons given in each individual post why the examples you cited were included. Also, we've been around for six years - our culture is a living thing and evolving. With six years worth of video content you are going to find things that support or condemn your position.

We try for consistency and we try to follow the guidelines but citing precedence is my least favourite way of supporting a position on VideoSift. You'll always be able to cherry pick - and it sounds a little too much like "why are you picking on me?"

I'm very glad that the community that I choose to associate with doesn't approve of watching people die.

That's a very nice sentiment and one that I share with you. I have always appreciated that every time I open a horrific video here, there's comfort in being able to presume that as disturbing as it may be, the people involved all survived. This is something many people take for granted or just don't care about, but it's something I value highly about VideoSift.

Well I'd just like to point out that a number of the videos I linked in a previous post, near all if not all of them depict(ed) scenes where people were dieing. Many if you follow them to their source have stories about how many died in the accident/event being shown in the video. I do not think the shuttle or WTC footage should be removed, but it does show scenes were people did not survive. And the building burning shows the fire that ended up killing 100+ people when it was all over.
Beyond the clear newsworthy events (WTC, Space Shuttle) what makes the other videos suitable? The soldiers peeing on corpses is much more graphic and in your face with the death aspect than this video is, since you can see the act happening with the corpses (hopefully dead at this point...hopefully) in view of the camera.
I just want some kind of acknowledgement that putting a news reporter before this video would not change the content of the video. Or a ticker bar at the bottom.....or a watermark in the video......the contents and happenings of the video would remain the same.
I see the plane crash video I linked to as exactly like this video. The person flying either had a hardware failure or mistake that caused him to nose dive into the ground. You know he died either on impact or shortly after. The only difference is one is a plane and one is a car. I know we can all put ourselves in the driver's seat of a car, but we can set ourselves apart from piloting due to lack of experience. This may account for the notation on this video, I want to identify whatever it is that this video has that set it apart from the others.
The police shootings are in the same scenario, but most us aren't cops. But most of them show poor choices that led up to it, and maybe we feel we wouldn't make those choices as a rational person...so the video is OK because it demonstrates a level of behavior that will result in your death that none of us feel we will reach. A car crash accident is not left up to willful choice in most cases.

I would have your babies...your little flipper-babies>> ^xxovercastxx:

I would like the background of each and every comment I post to have a watermark of an American Bald Eagle transposed in front of "Old Glory" waving in the winds of triumph, success, and baby Jesus. I also want the phrase "Never Forget..." as a signature. That way I always remember to lock the door before going to work.

I can totally make you a userstyle that does that. But I probably won't.
Actually, if I get my comment flags, I'll make you your userstyle.

Looking at the OnKneesforJesus' blog, it seems very likely that the site is a parody. I'm assuming they watermarked and (re-)posted the video.

Please someone hand that dog a fucking treat.


And remove that annoying watermark.

Hahaha at the end, that bitch laughed like this
