This video was one of the top stories on the BBC’s website today and I’m sure many other news websites around the world. It was “censored” by pausing for 1 second at the point of collision but otherwise it was the exact same video.
If the BBC are putting it on their front page it’s unlikely to be NSFW.
Yes watching this video knowing that 9 people have died upon impact makes this a death video.
What’s so wrong with erring on the side of caution and putting NSFW or a CW up?
Just because you are desensitized to watching death doesn’t mean the rest of us are.
CW fair enough, but NSFW blocks it from several servers erroneously.
Holy shit, look at that, the video is marked NSFW now. What a shocker!
Maybe death videos shouldn’t be pushed so easily into people’s timelines. Let people choose to watch it if they want.
Right back at you.

Yeah defending the BBC is always the right move lol
I still think death videos should be opt in and not pushed to everyone’s front page without any warning or censoring.
Tbf the title makes it quite clear, but the best compromise is a CW so the user can make the call.
Yep, that’s the only point I was trying to make. Thanks for getting it!
