- Terrorist attacks draw headlines around the world - but what happens to the survivors once the media has moved on?
On 9 November, the United Nations will screen “Surviving Terrorism: Victims’ Voices from Norway,” an intimate portrayal of two survivors of the July 2011 attack by Anders Breivik, at an event at UN headquarters in New York.
For more information, visit the United Nations Victims of Terrorism Support Portal at www.un.org/vic...
“We had time to escape because he was shooting someone else”. What an horrific chilling sentence. I can’t fathom the horror and sorrow these young people are going through.
Very heartbreaking that young people especially were put in such fear for their lives, and yet showed such courage and tenacity in their beliefs then and everyday since, a tribute to all survivors. Many thanks.....
@National Christian Front No he wasn’t! How could anyone call a literal SERIAL KILLER a hero.
@National Christian Front
I wouldn't really say that going to an isolated island with defenseless kids while impersonating as a cop and massacring them is a particularly divine cause - and all that for a difference in political views.
He could have done a real good cause to promote humanity and gone to the parts of the world where real and actual horror are inflicted upon human populations in systematic ways through acts of rape, execution and kidnapping in mass numbers and risked his life to end these atrocities.
Instead, the guy decided to be a part of the problem and imported the destructive behaviour that he so fervently did not want to take root in Europe. Not really the most reflected individual Mother Earth has ever produced.
@National Christian Front If murdering 69 children is divine, you need a new God.
Shot 5 times, 5 times and he survived and even one shoot was in the head, what a strong man!
shame on breivik a not human
One thing that is really sad is that basicly everything that could go wrong that day went wrong. It was really bad comunication between the police, they went to the wrong place etc. Filming helicopters came way before the police. A boss(?) was too focused on an "important" phone call so didn't read a letter that said something about a suspicious man driving to Utøya(or something like that) so he could have been caught before he came to the island...
You rly think some police boss or what ever that "boss" meant cares 2 flying f*ck about suspectin looking guy somewhere when massive bomb exploded at oslos downtown?😀 police dont have resources to track down suspicious lookin dudes anyway
@@joulupukki1607 I feel like they would care more after the bomb attack
They would be way more alert and prepared for more stuff to happen
It's because it was a state-sanctioned operation. Mossad. It's their goal to demonize any nationalist resistance to their globalization.
Someone actually called and tipsed the police about a man driving off in a grey van, but the police said it was a too general of a description to bother using resources on it. Inside that van was Breivik driving towards Utøya right after the explosion. So much could've been prevented if they just took that phone call seriously.
This guy is so strong. Getting shot in head. He's a hero
I can’t imagine all the pain and surgery he went through to get back to being able to live a somewhat normal life after those injuries.
You should see the movie
@@silh3345 I did and really felt moved and scared. I'm a brown guy in Europe and these guy stood against racism.i respect them
No... Hes a leftist globalist that betrayed Norway!
@@fresatx THEY were talling about viljar hanssen the guy who got shot 5 times
YOU are talking about anders behring breivik / fjotolf hansen the guy who started the attacks
I watched the film 22nd July. Whether a good portrayal or not, it showed the courage of the young people caught up in this madness. It showed the failure of a little man with no friends and no future. I wish Vilger Hansen and every one of the survivors good luck. I urge them to go on, do well and prove that no matter the challenges the far right try to throw at society, the normal populace will prevail and will survive. I have read that Anders Breivik has since complained about his solitary confinement. I feel he should be grateful. that he is even allowed that. His life is meaningless and therefore a waste of good resources. Thank you for uploading this update.
Jane Holland it’s Viljar Hanssen
This comment section is nice
The trailor for the netflix movies comment section was filled with psychos praising his actions and saying that the kids deserved it
The movie praised his actions too. Way to much light on the terrorist and none on the victims.
Utoya - July 22 is MUCH better.
‘Roid ragers!🇳🇴🥷🛥🏊🏻♀️
I die alittle inside every time i se anything about this. I lost my cousin there :'( my heart is bleeding
Who was your cousin?
Sad part is the killer is still alive. I don’t know how Norway’s judiciary system work but he must get death penalty.
@Malin Storvand that's so sad but testing him will not bring those kids back. right?
my cousin wanted to go though he was not able to (somehow)
it was a good desicion
@Malin Storvand it aint sad victims forgave him cause it aint about breivik its about those ppl to be able to continue their life without hate and anger in their heart so im more than happy for everyone who forgave him cause it means they have moved on
I can't believe it's been ten years since this happened. I remember when it happened. Time flies.
now its 14 years!
I was 5 years when this tragedy happened and I can remember my family talking about it. I knew something was wrong but they wouldn't tell me what was going on. I also overheard that my cousin lost her friend there and I wanted to know so badly what was going on. Today I am 15 years old and just watched utøya and I can't believe this has happened. I can't imagine 15 yearold's being there running, swimming and hiding for their life. All my love goes out to the people who has been affected by 22. july.
I was 7. I was at a children camp of my swimming club that day, next to a sea in Germany. When my mother picked me up two days later, she told me what happened in Norway. She was clearly upset. And I, with the innocence of a child told her: " I couldn't jump in the water, if I hadn't grabed my stuff sheep before. I can't leave her all alone, she would be frightened!" And Mom took her time explaining me, I would get it back afterwards, but not if I'd lose my life before. That day I started to regonize, that there is evil in this world and every time I got to that camp in the following years or anywhere else I first checked any escape plans of buildings and their surroundings.
These people are so strong! May this never happen again.
Respectfully, this has happened many times in history. And will happen many more. The important question is why? And was it able to be prevented? But don't ask the media. They have their own agenda.
As an American we know all about mass shootings and feel the pain the Norwegians still experience. I can’t believe a shooting this bad happened in such a peaceful country like Norway. The death toll was worse than the worst American shooting in history. Thats Crazy to think about.
As an Australian we can live with the comfort of knowing nothing bad will happen in the small town we live in
@@Pinkmen-ho3fz yes Australia is a very safe country mate
There is a connection. Verify for me please that the "white power" racists that incited Anders BB to murder mixed moderate youth were some of the same swastika bearing, confederate flag waving, racists that attacked capitol Hill in 2021, and Ottawa or Walpole Island in 2022.
Ms. Gunaratnam I appreciate your sincerity in speaking peace and understanding despite your experience. This is what I am seeking to teach my students. We have to talk about the hard things like violence, hatred, inequality or our silence reproduces them. Understanding and compassion, willingness to understand the unimaginable is the only way to stop the hate and division. Its a struggle in my country as well as we become more and more polarized. Thank you for being another voice for prevention.
It takes more courage to be compassionate than to be angry.
Thank-you all for your courage.
sharing, Justice and Peace for All
Viljar is an incredible man. It is not a coincidence he survived these 5 shots. Probably, no one else would have. Respect to everyone who was involved in this shocking and heartbreaking tragedy.
亡くなられた方々のご冥福をお祈り申し上げます。また、現在も苦しみに苛まれている方達に対して一日も早い回復を願っております。
Blessings to all these young children
This story is so heartbreaking, yet so inspiring. These young people are Norway's and the world's future. We need more people like Viljar, Kamzy and Greta Thunberg.
I totaly agree. Specially Kamzy's approach political after what she have been through. But please don't bring in Greta
Thunberg here!
@@Kjuken69 💯
Greta thunberg doesn’t know anything about climate change and climate activist are making it worse Greta isn’t gonna save anyone she is gonna destroy everyone
Thanks for sharing. Such an inspiration.
Viljar Hanssen is the main character in the movie 22nd July on Netflix. I've watched it several times.
What I would have wished of the movie was that they could have displayed a little more of the little brothers trauma. Who didn't got shot, but was on the island and witnessed his brother being shot. Although this is often the reality what was shown in the movie, that injured survivors or grieving relatives are first in line of help and support (and rightly so, cause it is more than a human could take on his own shoulders). But all we got to see was a conversation between the brothers, where the younger was trembling and locked in his room, where Viljar acknowledged through the closed door the depth of his younger brothers PTSD and how he was hiding it from their parents and their friends for the sake of his older brothers physical and emotional improvement. This might have been the clue point in the younger brothers recovery, but a lot around it was left out. You only saw the brother holding his feelings back, he never really speaks them out. So we know almost everything from Viljars perspective, but I think it would have been an important thing to include the brothers perspective as well.
Omg i just realized how accurate the movie on netflix called the 22 july how accurate it is based on how they tell this
I have just watched it on Netflix
@@fvo911 Yes i now right
Ofcourse it's accurate. Because the film took viljar's real story
inspiring people so strong they are
1:34 wow, he could hear not only that it was shooting, but also that it was a glock. Which it was, Anders Behring Breivik used a glock 34 and also ruger mini 14, but right there he used the glock.
Week of my birthday this tragedy took place. God rest those souls. The children. Run for Life.🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏 Bless the survivors Lord. Help them recover and live.
european it’s very, very sad that you think like that. I hope your viewpoint will change... I can’t imagine what happened to you, that you think murdering children will protect you from some threat, that doesn’t necessarily exist. Yes, people are dangerous, but it’s not the victims you should fear. But that’s pretty obvious, so I’m just gonna leave you with your god.
May the survivors and their loved ones find peace ❤️
This happened on my birthday
Such brave people ♥️
Can you imagine the crazy mind this guy has to shoot so many people with no remorse
As an American, who is sadly all too accustomed to frequent mass shootings, I was in total shock to see that this horrible incident happened in Norway. We here in the United States view Norway, as a beautiful country, with quiet,peaceful people..NEVER would this act of terror be on the radar screen for Norway. I was transfixed to the television, watching this horrible news of the terrorist attack in Norway,it seemed so impossible that this evil would / could ever tarnish and wound Norwegian life. I am so heartbroken that this evil violence
came to your beautiful people.
happend once and never happend again. ofc we have some shooting but nothing huge like this ever... outside this the worst killed like 3 people I believe. what happend 22 july in Norway dont happend and wont happen again
@@sander4247yeah because you guys have sane gun laws. Majority of us Americans want more gun laws but the NRA bribes our politicians.
Austailia is a great country to live in absolutely no mass shootings that come to mind even tho our primary schools have massive gates with spikes but high schools anyone can just walk in
History is important!!!
the entire reason for the shooting is because anders behring breivik studied the crusades and developed hatred for muslims
Indeed
@@brgahdfjadghdhd7585 Well history is still important.
Thank god it wasn't winter and the water wasn't freezing.
The water was actually insanely freezing. Norwegian water at summer is about 10-15 Celsius at summer.
It is Norway so the water was most likely very cold. The water doesn’t usually get very warm here even in the middle of summer.
@@xxxpornpromaster_pvpminecr5014 not rue i live in norway its about 18-24 celcius at summer in the water i dont live far way from the place
i mean yes it was a camp on the island because it was summer
would be better if it was in the winter, beause of that being a summercamp so noone would've been there, im not saying anything good happened that day cus only the oppsite did and us norwegians still mourn over the loss of everyone that day
0:40 Viljar Hansen got shot 5 times, even in the head I belive, and he still survived. May all the innocent kids rest in peace 😔
Very good publications. Thanks.
When American commenters yells death penalty to breivik.
These families said : no.
I was at Utoya today. Really sad to be there as one of the buildings he shot in you could see Hole in the door and walls etc. That’s the ONLY Physical evidence left of the attack
The trees still have bullet holes
Have they seen the movie 22 July?
rirro considering these people’s stories are told in the morning I would guess so
Movie*
They were involved in making the movie
Wow I just finished watching the movie 22July n realize it’s a true story that what cause me to reach on CZcams wow really admire the two brothers n to know it’s true
It does become a part of you. I was surrounded by a Universe of Look-Alike Stalkers, in a World of Crime, not knowing what I was involved in. It defines you.
They dont understand
What do you mean
As an American, its very sad to see that this is what it took to feel some shock.
You are strong and brave and having the courage to do what must be done. You know what you had to do and that is what saved your life. I have almost died 2 so I know what it's like to feel like you're going to die and if it won't for me keeping my self together and staying strong . To really control your feelings mental and physically and emotionally. If you can't keep it to gether if I won't have I would have died. It is also IMPORTANT to control your feelings mental physically to be strong for others. That are around you the most IMPORTANT thing to never give up no matter what the obstacle is. You always find away to survive.
We’re you in the attack?
God Bless Norway🙏🙏

Who taught you to hate the texture of your hair? Who taught you to hate the color of your skin? To such extent you bleach, to get like the white man. Who taught you to hate the shape of your nose and the shape of your lips? Who taught you to hate yourself from the top of your head to the soles of your feet? Who taught you to hate your own kind? Who taught you to hate the race that you belong to so much so that you don't want to be around each other? Malcom X
They are so soft about the attacker and his supporters, they need to stand strong against violence, its spreading more and more!
I love viljar
The song choice could be better
Puuf But It could also be worse...
Its a story about people who survied something bad and u crying about the song choice
UN is too corrupt now. Many member countries are committing the worst atrocities and heinous human rights violations. DismAntle it. What a strong man that survivor was. Long live Norway and their compassionate nature’s. Never lose this.
@@michaellamont2605 we didnt import anders behring breivik
@@annaf617 brivik.... was he the guy that shot all those Commies?
I'm really torn, it's like shooting Nazis when they're young...
Am I supose to feel bad???
Hard to say!
Anyone knows if Vilijar removed the rest of bullets fragments from his brain? I remember his doctor said he has to be carefully cuz the fragments could move inside his brain and a surgery would be possible if the fragments move further out of the brain stem...
Anders had a life-long steroid addiction!🤮🛥🥷😰🧖♂️
God bless y’all!!! The Lord is always by your side no matter what!!!
I would still love to visit Norway.
do it. this was a first and last time type of stuff. we dont have alot shootings here like the US and Sweden. almost none
@@sander4247Sweden has shootings??
Come to Australia also it has crime but no shootings
a great health care system but a useless law enforcement
After i watched the movie im not gonna lie i was a bit broken inside. Been still... What i want to say is that when it comes to kids, teenagers etc we can not act like its something normal. This man killed so many innocent kids, he was sick... And what was the panishment? 21 years... This person will come back in 10 years but THOSE kids who tragically died wont. God may rest them in peace. Sending my condolences to their families... WE WONT FORGET WHAT U DID! We want justice for those kid...
Noen som ser denne 22 juli 2021
We are so naive in Norway we think we can sit around a campfire and sing kumbaya and nothing bad will happen. Our biggest and most naive mistake that we need to learn from is that horrific massmurders can happen anywhere not just in the movies or in the Us etc. Why didnt anyone have a gun at utøya.? I will tell you why because we believed that nothing bad will happen at a youth camp especially in" calm and peaceful Norway" I am 100% convinced that had this horrific tragedy happened in the Us there would not have as many people dead. Because in difference to naive Norway in the The Us all safety precautions are taken to make sure that kids are safe you would have armed guards that could protect the kids. Thats why 77 people needlessly died because there was no one to defend them. Had someone had a weapon they terrorist could have been neutralized. In many ways this horrific tragedy happened to extent it did because. 77 people died because sadly In Norway we are too naive and soft to believe in guns as protection. It doesnt stop there the police task force that came out to the island didnt even have a proper boat or helicopter. None of this would have happened in any Us state. We can say what we want about the Us , but if there is any country i would feel safe at youthcamp it would be there one because you have armed guards , two when the police come they come and more importantly with the proper equipment and tools for the task at hand. Not like the amaturs in my country Norway. In the Us the terrorist would have gotten the sentence he deserves not the soft on crime policy sentences we Have in Norway. The Norwegian Justice system is a joke.
You might be right thinking that in the weapponized US there would be a smaller number of victims at such an event. Just because some of the campers would have respondend with weappons themselves.
But in the US you have exactely the opposite problem - everybody can get a weappon and the result is, innocent people get killed.
Norway might not be the same after this act of terrorism, but a peaceful civil life is a precious advantage.
I would not agree with you that - regarding conflicts of violence - Norway is naive.
Take a look what a strong and capable military this little (by the size of her population) country has.
The only good thing the Australian government has done is banning guns

And worms like Breivik dont have a place in it.
@@FoxyBoxery How was he a worm? He didn't sneak around nor wear a mask. He was out in the open where people could see him. People followed him because he looked authoritative and everybody trusts a person in a authority especially people that are liberals. They never think that a person in authority could be a traitor.
Nah

10:20 "I wouldn't put Brejvik in jail, I would let him work for the immigrants" - wow, you lady clearly have great ideas, good luck with that and your party. I'm 100% sure you would teach him better manners and he would be just fine. Meanwhile he's playing video games in his hotel-like prison :) I do feel sorry for all of the victims, but when I hear that political morals, especially from survivors it's like really unnecessary..

where was a police ,, he shootin 72 mins,,, many peopels called on emergency!!
The police was in downtown Oslo after the explosion. They weren’t aware that Anders was on his way to the island to shoot. The police department sent almost all their police to the place the bombing had happened so they were unable to get to the island fast enough plus when police were finally on their way they took the wrong route that was longer due to not being sure exactly where the island was located if I’m not wrong. Also they had trouble getting from the mainland to the island. I think most of what could have gone wrong that day went wrong when it comes to emergency help because no one was prepared for anything like that to happen in Norway. That incident changed how we deal with things like that from now on so we can be more prepared if something similar were to ever happen again.
