Student Wounded In Florida School Shooting: My Friend ‘Didn’t Make It’ | TODAY
the little “are you okay honey?” and “i’m okay...thank you” broke my heart
it broke my heart.. too..😔
ikr
Haley a
You can hear the woman, who asked is she is okay, her voice slightly breaking before she asks her that.
When she said that.... I felt that in every single way. Hiding the pain
She seems like the type of person who will hide her emotions to stop others from worrying.
Amy Caliz I’m that person
Xeno Stormz who asked?
@@killuminatimedia4874 czcams.com/video/PawPrNt5Fl4/video.html
@@killuminatimedia4874 wow eek! im super scared!!
Xeno Stormz wtf lmao I’m soooo scared. Rip to everyone involved
“because i don’t want nightmares” that hit hard. she’s seventeen and having to worry about ptsd. this country is messed up
I was actually thinking ,"Omg, I hope this girl didn't get ptsd."
Better than other countries. Satan is messed up.
I wanted to hug her
@@sk-dy4bb your user name is what this country is
@@sk-dy4bb satan is actually pretty cool if you took the time to talk to him
We don't need border walls!, we need to make our school's safer
༄ peacнy вee༄ preach
EXACTLY!!!!!
People don’t want to hear it but it’s the truth
How do you make them safer???? They need to take guns away
smaller windows?
the fact that any teenager has to go through this trauma is absolutely unacceptable.
ella meis sad if anyone goes through this
Move to UK
@@iamagoogleuser3830 why?
Crystal methany Dayton and El Paso in one weekend. That’s why
The saddest part is that they were learning about the holocaust, a horrible event that killed so many people, but looking at it from a point of view that at least things are better now, than somebody comes into the class and kills her friends
My cousin was killed there, only 14 years old...gun control needs to be a thing already
I'm sorry for your loss
Joseph Barclay Ross her name was Gina...
Joseph Barclay Ross your a vulture who picks on people who loose loved ones please leave instead of spreading hate
Veronica it’s a CZcams comment it already has very little credibility
A walking meme it could still be true I just think we should consider their feelings
“She didn’t make it” that Is the most heart breaking thing to say or hear
It truly is... I can’t imagine loosing my best friend 😔
So sad
😥😥😥🙏😥🙏
U can tell how she is hiding her tears by laughing
I do that sometimes. To hide my tears, I smile. I barely ever smile when I'm happy.
She's also using a lot of hand gestures to deter herself from breaking down. God bless, I hope she's doing better
I just wanted to hug her
@Luwam Kidane what did they say?
Maybe some people just act humorous to help them deal with serious topics.
When she asked about when her best friend saying "grab a book and sheild your head" I watched an interview before this one and another girl was in the same class as this girl in this video and the girl in the other video said that a girl told her to shield her head with a book.
She was also the girl next to the girl in the other interview and this girl in this interview was the friend of the girl that died and who told them to us the books and this girl in the interview was the one that was told by the there girl I am not putting my hands up till I know it's the real police
Yea...
So did i
janelle dunham omg same!
janelle dunham dame but sadly i heard that girl died
So she’s been shot twice, lost her best friend, already out of the hospital and back at the crime scene and giving an “on the street at the scene of the crime” interview? Superwoman!
Les Lieb an popping in laughs an smirks
Kennedy Logan Morgan what about her magic bullet proof book??
To Kennedy Logan Morgan...At 24 seconds, the interviewer says “ I know you got some bullet wounds”. Plural.
You are a terrible person
Les Lieb The cops were there because the security was needed after the shooting. Like when my school got a threat the cops came immediately and they still come time to time to the security and outside of the building.
"are you ok hunny" NO SHES NOT OK HER BEST FRIEND DIED
@14 subscribers with no videos? Stop saying its fake, it just looks ridiculously unrealistic!
We need tight gun control so just stop!
@14 subscribers with no videos? Are you sure?
They don't exactly follow reality.
@14 subscribers with no videos? Well that's my point!
These mass shootings never make any sense and they don't need to because people will believe them regardless, no matter how many inconsistencies.
I think the reporter asked that to know if she can get through the interview and if she’s not she can ask the people working to give her a minute to breath and just go to any news to give her time to cry and breathe
@@chezeyibadlitgozon9782 to cry? Does the girl look upset lol
This interview is ridiculous!
When Sam said “ She didn’t make it” i started bawling because i couldnt think about my bff dyeing and not knowing right away.
Could you have given a full interview shortly after like this girl did?
Same cause I'm watching this and I can't imagine my bff die, she has being with me at all time (sorry for my English)
My bff died November 2018... she was only 10.... I found out 6 hours after she died.
QUACKQUACK IM A DUCK I’m so sorry for your loss
@@Z3sty367 no i would have broke down. She's so strong
This isnt fake darlings, my friend's cousin, was in this. Its reality people stop running away from it. Its not fake its true, wethier u belive it or not.
Oh, your cousin doesn't have a name, huh? You seem really upset and concerned and overflowing with emotion about your no-name cousin, huh? So much so that you have to tell us this is not fake, huh? Why?
Donald Sauve hush you bot
Joseph Barclay Ross Cause half of this is none of your buisness! I dont know that much information, im not super close with my friend. So hush ur mouth because u have no evidence. Neither do i but how could this even be fake?
Donald Sauve like i said WEITHER U BELIVE IT OR NOT. I dont giva a crap of what u say.
Joseph Barclay Ross you disgust me
I sometimes just get paranoid. I try laughing to calm my self down. It works for me. Maybe she smiled and laughed to calm herself down. It is quite awkward to do an interview after your friend has been shot.
Same , once a best friend of mine was going thought hard times so I made a joke , it made her laugh and another one of my friends told me it wasn't funny and wasn't the right time it looks like she doesn't understand my coping mechanism cause I'd rather see a smile on my face or mu friends face than tears. Plus happy thoughts make you forget a bit about the pain
jean G That is completely true!
@@berrytania7401 ik . And I actually like that coping mechanism. Cause when I stop crying I end up happy
i think its because she's recalling how smart a friend was and how much she loved her?
When i talk abt uncomfortable things or things that make me sad i laugh or smile to keep me from crying or feeling awkward
I’m scared. I’m always like “oh I’m not gonna be that kid that dies in the car accident, or gets shot, or is in a plane crash or something like that. I’m gonna live a long happy life...” and then I always remember that those same kids that are dead probably told themselves the same thing.
for real, no one could ever believe something like this happening to them. but it still happens and someone is that kid.
That hits different, I tell myself that, but I always think “this, isn’t impossible, any day someone could shoot up my school”
This is literally how I feel constantly. Im always scared.
I always feel a little like that....it’s odd
Jesus Loves You
Whoever said "boys don't cry" isn't human. I cried and I'm a boy... This is horrific and it's sad that she has to live with this PTSD in her life and can't really say "I remember in high school so and so happened and it was fun" and instead they say "I remember in high school my friend died protecting me in a school shooting" this is depressing
Anyone telling you that 'boys don't cry' is stupid. That is encouraging unhealthy behaviors, don't listen to them. You have every right to cry when you need to, it's a normal thing everyone does.
@@ineedausername9617 thank you so much
If a boy cry, he’s a wimp. If a girl cry, she doenst have feelings. This world is messed up frfr
@Pink Girl thank you
many people say and don't say that
These kids and staff were so innocent. What did they ever do?
Matthew Fuller they went to acting school
Or joined the Masons.
David Paz They don't deserve to die
Alot
Becuz why not.that what inside the shooter mind or maybe
She is so strong. What a trooper, she is my inspiration.
Shes cute

Laughing is a coping mechanism for some people... don’t just say it’s fake
Cygnus happens to me all the time 😕
Exactly I do the same thing
Yeah, sometimes I laugh to stop myself from crying.
People laugh while they are nervous as well. You cannot blame this girl because she was crying on national television informing them that her friend was dead. She was probably incredibly nervous and probably laughed to hold herself back from completely breaking down.
trueman mann thank you!!!!
I feel so bad for her and all these innocent kids ☹️
BEAR Cuddle no one deserves to die
Goth Lyfe she is NOT a liar people don't lie about these things!

Don't feel bad for her. Just feel bad for her bad acting.
+Donald D how can u be so rude
I cannot imagine losing my best friend....
This girl....She knows true loss
I remember seeing this live and when they asked if her friend if she made it, I was like “ please say she survived” I was so sad when she said she didn’t make it
For everyone saying "how does a book stop a bullet" she said "maybe the book deterred some of the bullets?" She didn't say "omg I put the book up and it stopped the bullets and then I started shielding myself like a superhero" 😩 people now a days have no empathy for anyone.
OH "Deterring bullets with a book"?? I misheard.. now it makes complete sense.
No, if people behind her got shot she would have too. “Some of” = there were so many bullets, at least one would hit her. The only thing she’s implying is that, yes, the book deterred the bullets. It doesn’t make sense. Or maybe she really is THAT out of it.
She would know if there were bullets in it. or chunks taken out of it.
The news reporter mentioned the book deterring bullets I think maybe the girl panicked slightly due to being on camera and just went along with it. As soon as I heard the reporter say that I felt like punching her.
If you have a couple of hard cover books and use that as a type of shield, the bullet won’t go all the way through so yeah they can stop a bullet..
I saw a video of another girl in the same class as her and both story’s are disturbing and brave at the same time 🤧❤️
Timo Ogun ❤️🥀
Aalayah Eastmon isn’t it? 😔
I just came from that interview
@@Armyblink4life554 link?
Is it the girl who called her mom and the mom hung up and she hid behind a dead body?
“She didn’t make it” 😭😭 my heart just melted for her.
“We’re so sorry. Tell us all the details.”
Well, that's kinda the whole point. Also, she agreed to be there .
When she started crying, I started to cry. 😭
Sophie Sikorski me too. But no tears came out. And then I laughed. But then I thought about my holocaust class and then I cried again. Then I decided to try to defeat our constitutional rights one by one....
lol
Don't worry, she wasn't crying. Not a single tear was shed. Look!
Sophie Sikorski same
Sophie Sikorski same
This poor girl. She is so empathetic and we'll spoken after such a horrific tragedy she should have never had to endure. Her parents should be proud of her ❤️
She witnessed a person die, not her friend. She didn't care for the person. Body language is obvious. She wanted to be known for 3 minutes. But believe her sympathy
ashleyplus3 She's not empathetic. She's acting.
Pardon Me everyone acts differently in situations like this and on camera and tv
‘So Empathetic!!’ Take away the ‘Em!’ Give you a hint C-R-I-S-I-S A-C-T-O-R
dave do 😂😂😂 she even released herself from the hospital to go back to the horror scene where her buddy is dead. To give a happy-go-lucky interview. 😂😂
You can tell she is trying not to break down and sob
Poor girl😢❤
SHE WAS TRYING NOT TO LAUGH! out load anyway, she was embarrassed and she could not even hold a straight face for the camera......sad but also true.
“Yeah, unfortunately she didn’t make it.”
IM BAWLING
It’s not fair to have this young lady sobbing on national tv just after her friend died she wasn’t ready and it is very upsetting to watch
Welcome to your tape she did that voluntarily and she said in the interview that it helps her to talk about it
She's not sobbing! At all! Barely a tear.
@@xtaljade well she was kinda holding back you can hear it in her shaky voice.and especially when she talks abt her friend
she wanted to talk about it and the news ladies clearly didn’t know she died
I just hugged and cried in my 11 year old sister's arms because she leaves for school in 5mins and I just got so scared. I'm 22
This teenager is acting. She did not witness her best friend die in front of her the day before. You don't have to worry about your sister, at least not from this made up story.
Desmond San Nicolas u had a child at 11?
Desmond San Nicolas do you live in Florida?
tbradtbrad no she is not stop saying that
Bitchwhere F no her sister is 11
These two hosts actually showed some compassion. Good interview. You are so strong. Keep talking about it. Don't keep it bottled inside. Just make sure it doesn't become the center of your life. We all continue to pray for you young adults and the parents of those who lost their child.
i can’t even imagine the trauma she went through. one second you’re with your best friend, goofing around, and laughing. then the next second you see her dead on the floor
Awesome job, guys. Let's bring a student who was both psychologically traumatized & physically wounded right back to the scene of where it took place the morning after. Oh, and then let's ask her about her friend who was shot and killed in the incident as the very first question, on national television. Stellar work, really.
Is this THE HOOP DIAMONDS
They didn't know her friend died.
Scripty :O You missed the point..
WeRightNow I can assure you it is not fake. I live 20 min from there and have seen graphic videos from students within the school. Your tin foil hat is on a little too tight.
Because these kids need to be heard. Not this "no's not the time'. No more of that excuse. It's been the response after every shooting. No more. NOW IS THE TIME to hear from these kids. You don't have to live through it. But these kids, kids who's lives just began, have to live with this the rest of their lives. The one's who survive anyways.
Oh god I got chills when she said she didn’t make it. Trying to hold back the tears 😞
GOD bless them AMEN
she’s trying so hard to keep it together :(
i started crying the second she choked up and said “she didn’t make it.” this girl is so brave and strong to tell this story. RIP to her beautiful best friend 💞
Why do people think this is fake? How are people this ignorant, she just went through a traumatic event, and she's trying to hold her self together to recount the events, of course she's actually off. She, and the other victims are not actors, y'all in the comments need to stop.
I am holidaying in Israel soon, can you recommend a good hotel in Tel Aviv?
chris L I guess we need to start replacing our military’s body armor with tiny books!
Carlaeyyy this is the world we live in, where "alternative facts" and "fake news" are excuses people use to continue to be unaccountable unempathetic pos'.
Stephen Gill I have no idea, but look on sites like trivago & hotels.com and look at the reviews
lick my lips I never said that, books don't do much to protect against guns, but it obviously helped her.
How could anyone say shes faking it they literally said she got grazed from a bullet. Like being in a school shooting is traumatizing enough. And the fact that she was by her best friend that got shot you're gonna tell her shes acting wrong? Shes handling this very well in my opinion
Shana Morrison where did she get grazed by a bullet? She didn’t show so we’ll never know. Also, she said that she grabbed a small book and used it to deflect bullets away from hitting her. Where is this small magical book that can make bullets bounce away??? Lol. She’s a terrible actress and bad liar.
In another vid she stated ahe was shot twice. Ijs
Jbee Sweeper nice how you avoided addressing her magical bullet proof book. Lol. Don’t be a fool.
Donald D actually Mr. Duck. I was agreeing with you. I was highlighting the effect that her stories have changed. Being grazed and actually shot by a high powered large .223 shell are 2 totally different things.
Jbee Sweeper oh I thought you were trying to defend her. All good bro
I’m actually really proud of these news anchors for being so sensitive to her emotions, cuz I just watched another interview where the lady was really insensitive and loud, even interrupted the teen who had been shot at a few times.
at 0:39, I know that look... breaks my heart
0:40 that tremble in her voice afterwards, choking back her tears...what a brave strong girl 😢
This made me cry so much I cant imagine losing my best friend or any one I love
To the people asking why a girl who witnessed her friend and classmate dying before her eyes is smiling.
Shock. She’s still in shock. Just coming out of it and will be for quite some time after this. She will be smiling and laughing as a symptom in an effort to control extreme emotions she can’t handle right now.
Thank you, you are completely right. My best friend was attacked and wasn't able to talk or walk after it....and he died a few days after......When something like that happens (especially if you don't know who did it and how/why it happened) your brain tries to keep you from facing these awful circumstances. Thank you very much for telling the truth in this ocean of B.S.
Um no. I've witnessed the aftermath of a shooting where 8 people died. There was no smiling, no nervous laughter, no jokes, and everyone's eyes were red and swollen and their voices were strained. The victims families just cried for days and days. Their postures were hunched over. They looked and acted as if they truly had their heart broken. This girl obviously didn't care that much for her "friends" she couldn't even fake a tear. And look at her composure! Straight up! Her eyes are pointed down and around, which is a dead giveaway to when a person is lying.
xtaljade stfu, maybe that did happen in your life but in this girl’s life this is a way of her expressing her feelings. She’s looking down because she is trying to hold back the tears. And for your information, she wasn’t joking at all. Also, if you didn’t watch the whole thing, then you probably didn’t hear the part when she said she told the story many times, which is making her stronger and more eligible to tell the story from her perspective. If you have a problem with the way she’s expressing herself, don’t watch the video.
Mythogenesis ikr it isn't real to her until after her friends funeral
vidkidxyz 😂😂
i could not imagine my best friend being shot- I would’ve lost my mind
“Are you ok honey?” NO SHES NOT OK! Her friend died!

@Lylou Very new account there bud.
@Lylou Accounts for comment spam are made for these kind of nonsense videos. Besides they have stopped doing these over the top shooting events. They haven't done one for a long time, they were doing them every few weeks but now nothing.
Actually shocked by the amount of people on here being absolutely disrespectful. If you have never been in a similar situation then how on earth would you feel you have the right to tell anyone that she is acting weird of that her behaviour is fake? Blows my mind. And apart from that, everyone has a different coping mechanism so stop spreading hate toward victims!
People can say anything they want. Your generation will not silence people.
You should learn to spell victims before talking about them lol
Anouk Richters I agree
Trump Is Coming fr😂😂
Trump Is Coming I am sorry i wrote victims incorrect. English is not my native language.
Is she okay ? What kind of question is that ? Her best friend is gone. Some of the kids may suffer from PTSD
Niko Flowers some? More like half da sxhool lol.
Niko Flowers. Yet the girl is acting almost perfectly calm and isn't showing genuine stress or distraught, just like the rest of these people, another woman said she lost her daughter and there wasn't even a tear in her eye, a normal parent would collapse and their world would fall apart, these people look like they're acting.
Fixthings247 totally agree!!! This girl is the only one i saw so far that even made an attempt to look even a little sad. I call bs on the whole thing
Niko Flowers that what makes me mad. Wtf
Niko Flowers boah!!
I’m in tears she’s stronger then me 😔
I am so so sorry that all of these students, and teachers had to go through something so horrible, my heart goes out to everyone, as well as my prayers.
0:45 For all the people saying she is fake....listen to her voice you can hear her voice shaking, you can see her crying, you can see her trying so hard to hold it together for the camera, you cant fake that,
I'm pretty sure your voice would be shaking if you were in this traumatic incident to And to all the people saying "she is laughing how could she be serious" just remember that everyone has different coping mechanisms and some people laugh to keep from crying which is what she was doing so give her a break because if you lost YOUR BESTFRIEND YOU WOULD BE CRYING AND SHAKING TO BOO SO YOU ALL NEED TO CHILL IN THE COMMENTS
nia woodbine thank youuuu
As someone who’s been through trauma it took a long time to speak I agree with you she’s so brave
nia woodbine ehem... acting... people can act.... people can fake emotions.... she can fake this....

That sweet baby, my heart breaks for her and all of the others involved. As a mother I can see for myself how much this sweet girl is struggling
she’s so strong, I’d probably be crying the entire interview
The fact that some of y'all think this is fake is so disturbing
The fact that some of y'all think this is real is so disturbing

How is she strong. What did she do that was strong?

Google pictures of AR-15 wounds to the human body and tell me if this girl would be standing there holding a book to stop AR-15 bullets they go through steel concrete this is ridiculous if my friend was shot in front of me I would be so emotionally distraught I couldn't talk for days! Shame on this young lady!
Baby Blue Eyes well said
PSY Zakzouk her best friend died! Thats how she's strong! She also survived a shooting. thats how she's strong
I can't imagine how gut wrenching it would be to describe this kind of traumatic experience so I really admire her for sharing her story. She's a very strong young woman.
rest in peace to those 17 victims, so heartbreaking :(
She’s treated then taken back to the scene of the crime for an interview? Something is just not right with this.
Sail Before Sunset there were reporters on scene, dickface
You know how far and wide this crime scene is spread out? I highly doubt she’s being interviewed on the grounds of the school.
I was thinking the same thing. Most people or too stupid to catch on to small details like this. That's why these drills will continue and then be sold to the sheep as real events.
Yeah well this is not fake and if you think it is then fu
VAUGHN CASTLE she literally said she was taken to the hospital by ambulance and then went home with her parents....this interview was the morning after the shooting.
God bless her and the others ❤️.
this girl is so strong and mature! i hope she has a beautiful life and gets everything she’s needs.
i can't even imagine what its like to lose a friend from a school shooting..💔😓
Shout out to the tiny book for deterring bullets
I know right. She doesn't even describe where she was hit. She's very animated in movements so nothing is sore.

Sarah Williams lol right
Watch out everyone, we conspiracy theorist among us.
No she is not okay!! No one should ever have to experience this!! A change needs to happen right now!
How can you change a person's skin color?
Tron Michaels the black Shawn Michaels May I ask how your comment has anything to do with what I just said?
What does that have to do with anything?
RR Love02 fake wakeup are you serious
RR Love02 Change what? Cocaine, Meth, Heroin are ALL illegal. Laws are already on the books yet here we are with an opioid crisis. It's not the object it's the user. The user will ALWAYS find a way to do something bad. The same applies to guns!
imagine disliking this. absolutely heartbreaking situation.
She is a gorgeous girl. So strong!!!
She should never have been put on camera. I could tell something was wrong in the first 3 or 4 seconds.
MaritimeWolf ...yup.shes lying
MaritimeWolf yas shes in pain
They have activist telling them that their pain can be harnessed and used for good use to make sure this doesn't happen again. It gives these kids solace so I see no harm in it.
It’s not the real girl she is saying what the actual girl was saying but she is still in the hospital
@laynee wright. HUH?
This is so heartbreaking. Thank God she survived. Prayers for the victims families
she’s so strong.
“We’re sending love and prayers to you right now”
“uM”
These kids are so mature
I am so sorry. My heart hurts for these kids. ❤️🙏🏻
Redshield666 😂😂
The Pale Sicilian 😂😂
She is so strong I can’t even say or breathe without crying when I’m upset
This hit close to home... I really can’t imagine what I’d do if I lost my best friend, especially seeing them die in front of me like that. I’d be such a mess. I don’t think I’d ever recover. This girl is so brave and my heart goes out to her. Hope she’s doing okay!
The people that are saying this is fake, I'm sure are the same people that think the earth is flat. 😂
Esteban Grasham the people who believe this I’m sure are the same who believe the official story of 9/11
Donald D what do you mean? Do you think it’s fake or real? I’m rlly confused. This is real. Why would anyone fake something as TERRIBLE as this?
erogers there are more that lies behind the curtain than you’d ever wan to believe. The world is darker than you think. Do your own independent research. Peace

The U.S. also has the most corrupt government on the planet and they fake things like this.
Anyone saying that this is fake is disgusting and despicable. Everyone reacts to tragedy/terror/horror differently, these kids are in shock, of course they’re acting weird. I work in a place where I have to deal with victims of violence weekly, people act strange when they’ve just gone through something horrific. Everyone says you don’t know how it feels until it happens to you, and I hope this never happens to anyone again...but just put yourself in these kids shoes for two seconds and think of how you would react in a situation like this....you probably have no freakin idea how you would react, so you can’t judge these kids. They all had to watch and hear people die that day, that’s something they shouldn’t have to experienced at such a young age.
I'm sorry you can't think critically past your emotional kneejerk reactions you brainlet.
Anyone saying that this is real is disgusting and despicable. FTFY
Ignore these people the people who commented that this is fake probably dont have emotions anyway
All these people who say it’s fake are cold and heartless- ignore them.
Samantha reminds me so much of one of my best friends... It's so painful to watch her going through this. I hope she's doing better now.
she seems like the sweetest girl..I’m so sad..
Omg she was so positive about this. All my love and support 💜💜
Aww what a beautiful girl! As a highschool girl myself, just the thought of this happening to my best friend is absolutely terrible
Mara Exanimis which is entirely the reaction they are shooting for. think for yorself, dont let the media direct your emotions.
For her nearly crying to actually crying, she is an absolute trooper. May her friend Rest In Peace, all the best for her and her friends family...I know how she feels, my friend didn’t die but got grazed by bullets...
I dont think I could ever come to terms with watching my bestfriend get shot beside me and me being able to walk out without her.
i could
