I tried to download a music video on limewire once. I was pretty computer illiterate back then and around 13 years old at the time when a friend at school showed me how to download things.

That music video turned out to be a woman being murdered at point blank range. It was ~5 seconds of my life but that video has never left my mind. It was far too early for video editing and far too 'amateur' to be a movie production. The way she begged for the guy to stop before he pulled the trigger, it was definitely real.

Had a similar experience, but it was a video of a guy who got run over by a truck, or in more accurate terms...smushed into its radiator. There was not a lot left that could be recognized as a normal human body, but he was still alive and crying for help.

I'll also never forget that, fucking traumatizing thing. I believe the Nokia phone camera quality which was usual back then made it even worse, because there were missing details you couldn't see, only imagine.
