“10 most infamous assassinations” would have been a better title
@Ok Zoomer nice profile picture
Nope this sounds better
@@numbdigger4552 but it is just wrong
They should’ve put a disclaimer that made it obvious that they weren’t ranking who was assassinated better, but how unexpected and sad the assassinations were and the importance of the victims.
No this is gold
I'm not sure "Top 10 Assassinations" is the best choice of wording.

@@crystalcat1002 hitler wasn’t assassinated stupid he obviously ran to the Soviet Union then got launched into space and landed on Mars where he ate Mars rocks which killed him
How can u rate assassinations, like wtf.
Important people. Brutal deaths etc
or how well it was carried out. efficiency perhaps?
Historical significance...
most shocking or most unexpected
dheeranc they aren't rating them they are reminding us of these tragic losses
The “honorable mentions” section just felt extremely wrong
Yep
Anwar El Sadat was right but the rest werent
Yeah probably could have been called something else
Perhaps they were just honoring those that have died. Calling them “dishonorable mentions” would be disrespectful to the dead
@@iiiiiiiiiiiiiii4019 i'm suprised Osama Bin Laden wasn't an honourable mention.
I love Dr. King because he still fought for so many people even though he knew his own safety and well-being was not for certain.
And how do you not get chills listening to his “I have a dream” speech.
It’s a shame Christian republicans are fighting to destroy history and bury the legacy of amazing people like MLK…
I love how calm the commentator was when Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby. 🤣🤣
It was staged
@@idontmakecontent4870 proof?
"Shot, shot J. OSWALD has been shot"
The fact that we are good at killing innocents and bad at killing the people that make the world a worse place to live is really disappointing
True fact
The truth
Its really bad to kill anybody in this world.
Javan Ene ik but like why kill Martin Luther king INSTEAD of Hitler?
@@freddieboi4818 Probably because Hitler was already leader of the Nazi party and probably one of the most untouchable people at the time. Whether you believe he killed himself or fled to Argentina, the Allies still weren't able to kill him themselves.
MLK was a different story, as he was a civil rights activist in a time where racial segregation and racism were still strong. The assassination was most likely because he was a black man bringing people together.
All in all, two very separate things.
Of course my death has to be on here. Only time I get to relax i die.. wow

This was 6 years ago a lot has changed so has people’s mentality relax
@@FlacoHD did you look at the name on the account?
lol
Sure he was an actor but was he really that talented? Would he have risked his career being an assassin if it was that great? You have to be really talented to be a Karen. Like Whoopi Goldberg who's real name is Caryn Johnson. She is one of just 15 entertainers to an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. Another good example is Emmy-winning television producer Caryn Mandabach. For years she produced both The Cosby Show and Roseanne for competing networks at the same time. Her producing credits include That 70's Show, Third Rock From the Sun and Nurse Jackie.

First of all, the coronavirus is a pandemic, not a epidemic. Second, a genocide is a completely different from a epidemic/pandemic. A genocide is when a person/people kill people because of their race, religion, etc while a epidemic/ pandemic is a disease that kills lots of people (a pandemic is a killing disease around the world will a epidemic is a killing disease in a certain area of the world). It doesn't matter if the coronavirus is deadly or not, it is not a genocide.

Right ?! Mojo-jojo wildin

"I have seen the promised land. I may not get there with you." These are haunting words on their own, but even more so considering that was the speech he made shortly before he died.
it broke my heart
True. His words seemed a premonition
MLK was such a powerful speaker. If I had a time machine, I would sit front row to hear him speak.
Shinze Abe, former Japanese PM, could be added to the list this week.
So true.
Malcom X spoke nothing but truth.
And Martin Luther King
Wait what where is alexander 1 from yugoslavia!?!?!!?!
He was a fraud
Ouch that hurt. Plz dont say that
Yes, we should all be puppets of a Muslim cultist and say only what he tells us to think. That's what almost all of Malcolm X's speeches were. A hand shoved up his puppet ass parroting some self-proclaimed demigod. Great person to emulate.

I agree with you one that one.
I dont agree. You are being way too sensetive. This was not a problem before you pointed it out. I enjoyed the video and i found it intrestning.
yeah i think that they could have titled it "top 10 people who were assassinated" and that would have made it more tasteful i think
***** Being sensitive? Hardly, i just find this both disrespectful of those who were killed and in bad taste.
So, by your logic, we aren't allowed to talk or rank history on the internet anymore? You must be annoyingly politically correct.

Lmfao
If Franz Ferdinand is not number one, I AM GOING TO do absolutely nothing other than express mild disappointment/disagreement.
Aww come on, his death basically caused the two World Wars! That has influenced the world more than any others!
RogueDemonZ It didn't cause two WW's. Only the first one
Pp N WWI led to WWII. Germany was in debt and desperate, leading to adopt Hitler and Nazism. So the assassination of Franz Ferdinand did basically cause WWII, you could even say it influenced the wars against communism.
RogueDemonZ Following your logic we could track the cause of WW1 down to the Middle Ages. The Nazis and the Germans military rise was because of the Treaty of Versailles, which was too strict and they couldn't live with it. That was the main reason for WW2.
Pp N It is a heavy tie; a catalyst for the wars. And this list is about the assassinations, I believe Franz Ferdinand's death had the most dramatic effect. Now you could say that Caesar's death might have actually made a bigger difference, but only because that event's butterfly effect has lasted two millenia.

"History" seems to have occurred mainly in the U.S.A. in recent years.
Many Americans don't know any other aspects of history, so...
....time they learned how to learn.
True though, when you put out a title like this you expect something else.
All the UFO sightings and landing happens only in the USA too, may be Aliens like the capitalism I guess.
Considering that most celebrities and pop culture icons are from the United States they are sure to be the ones making this list
If Teddy Roosevelt didn't survive the association attempt I'm pretty confident they would've changed it to "11 associations in history"
Thank you watchmojo
Why all the butthurt? It's not like they're promoting Assassinations. I didn't hear them say "He was infamously shot in the back, LOL what a bitch". They weren't being disrespectful. It's informative and I actually enjoyed this list.
I agree.
TOP ten assassinations. Saying, "top" makes it sound like they like these assassinations. Seriously man?
Doyledeth How? How does Top mean they like it? It means the top ten most infamous Assassinations. Seriously man?
Josh Pierpoint How? Do I even need to explain this to you? Seriously man?
Doyledeth Why do you keep saying "Seriously man"? They are not promoting anything violent. Just because you interpret it in a hateful way doesn't mean it is hateful. Just because you're offended doesn't mean your correct.
You guys realize this isn't ranking The "totally awesome super fun cool list of assassinations that we thought were totally epic and cool". This is a list of positive, influential figures who were taken away from this earth at a way early time by another being and thus caused an impact throughout the world and history itself. If you are offended by this you are completely childish and 90% of you aren't even watching the video fully, you're just judging off the title.
Here here. This man speaks justice. Most people are too dumb to listen to the first 20 sec of the video when they say this are rated from less to most influentials.
Haha, true, but i guess watchmojo couldn't exactly title the video "Top 10 positive, influential figures who were taken away from this earth at a way early time by another being and thus caused an impact throughout the world and history itself."
MadMagician Are you crazy?!?!? people would be whinning about the tittle being too long...
The comment section always floods with butthurt hostility any time WatchMojo.com tackles subjects of legitimate historical importance. My gods, the conservative outcry when they listed the most influential events was almost sickening.
Exactly its talking about there impact
Philip's assassin was paid by the Persians his weight in gold, because Athens and Sparta had many problems the only who could stop Persian Empire from conquering Greece was Macedonia
I like how they removed "Top"
The list in the right order
*#1* Archduke Ferdinand - Immediately resulted in one of the largest blood baths in world history.
*#2* Julius Caesar - Significantly changed the political spectrum
*#3* JFK - America (the world's largest superpower at the time) went to crap after his assassination. Start of when America was really put into fear and really began US police state is some ways.
*#4* Gandhi - Important historical figure who showed that change can come through peace. His death was sad and a lot of people gathered but his movement was still successful. His death didn't have any world changing impacts other than the loss of a great man.
*#5* MLK - More significant than Lincoln and less significant than JFK in terms of assassination effects on America. In a lot of ways his movement was a big success but if he stayed around a bit longer he could've had an even bigger impact.
*#6* Lincoln - Sure he had a large role in keeping the country together. However towards his death the country was already in the process of becoming normal and stabilized again.
*#7* Benazir Bhutto - Death lead to destabilization of the area at the time and showed that Al Queda was still a threat to people living in Northern Africa.
*#8* Malcolm X - Significantly important part of history but King was much more successful especially since he Malcolm was much more aggressive. No large historical event really took place after his death.
*#9* John Lennon - While extremely popular and one of the first people you think of when it comes to assassinations, John's death slightly effected the music industry but only at the time.
*#10* Phillip II of Macedon - Honestly don't know much about Phillip II.
***** it could of happened but ww1 only started because Archduke Ferdinand driver turned the wrong corner leading to the dukes assassination
leading to world war 1 so it could of been avoided but ww1 would of definitely started later on if he never got shot plus world war 1 was where hitler fought in so if the duke never got shot hitler would not of gained power and there would of been no world war 2 but without these 2 wars we will have more people on earth than now
schuyler orr the fucker who killed him was buying a sandwich at the time so that was of pure luck
soilder247 the person had multiple assassination attempts but failed until the 1914 attempt
***** I think you meant the Balkans. Ferdinand's assassination is the result of decades-long anxiety in that region. World War I as a whole is the result of pretty much everything that happened in the previous century (balance of powers, alliances, imperialism, military technology, nationalism).
Supreme Leader No it's an execution. The Roman Empire executed him for disturbing the peace of Rome and civil unrest, the Jewish council condemned him to death for breaking their laws. The crucifixion was good old fashioned crime and punishment

2. Julius Caeser
3. John F Kennedy
4. Abraham Lincoln
5. Leon Trotsky
6. Ghandi
7. Martin Luther King Jr.
8. Louis Mountbatten
9. Malcom X
10. John Lennon
I agree with everything except Kennedy before Lincoln. Lincoln was the first president (US) to be assassinated, and I think his death meant a greater deal more than Kennedy's.
Sophie Tenquist I think that President Kennedy's death was a lot more traumatic for the people of the nation because they got to see the footage of it and be updated in real time. Im sure that there were lots of people staying tuned to their radios and TV's, constantly listening for updates. Kinda like CNN's 24-hour coverage of flight MH370. (Except nobody was watching that after the first week)
How is that a correct list? I don't agree with that list.
Quinton Doucet Well, Franz Ferdinand's assassination sparked WWI, which was resolved with the Treaty of Versailles. The Treaty of Versailles was choking the life out of Germany, which led to Hitler and the Nazis taking power, which led to WWII. WWII Split Europe into two different regions, East and West. And, Indirectly, this schism in the continent of Europe led to the rise of teh Soviet Union to become a super-power, which spawned the cold was, which was comprised of numerous proxy wars.
The death of Julius Caesar led to a new wave of political ideology that persists to this day.
The Death of President John Kennedy rose tensions in teh cold war even higher than before, and was a nation-wide tragedy. For a long time after his death, the world was watching to see what would happen next.
Stealth Clown I know my history. I'm saying that since he doesn't agree with this list it is completely wrong and that his list is completely right. Like who has a right list? This person's list should not just be considered correct because he made it.

Wow, 9 years later and I still watch this. Btw. Happy MLK day!
6 years later and it shows up on CZcams recommendations
The Archduke's death set WWI in motion, in turn planting the seeds for WWII and the great Cold War. Far and away the most far reaching assassination in world history.
But he was lower because he himself wasn't an influential person. Only his death was influential
He was the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne. One of the most influential and powerful nations on the earth at that time.
stevesb97 That is true. Can't believe it wasn't no.1.
Thank you, I was waiting for that comment... How can you put John Lennon before the assassination who caused millions of deaths ? I'm french, and I think (I'm JUST thinking) that in America, you don't realize how WWI was brutal and awful in Europe, that you only think about your personal history and the assassinations that concern you (even though you took part to WWI) and I don't understand how you can put the assassination of a singer before this one....
***** There was alot of tension at the time yes. but it wouldnt have ended in a world war if it wasnt for that murder. It would have ended is alot of smaller wars like there have been before. then ww2 wouldnt have happened cause hitler would never have gotten the national support that he had gotten cause of germany`s defeat. then nato wouldnt have been made cause they were made cause of ww2. then Wernher von Braun wouldnt have made it to the U.S.A and then russia would have made it to the moon first or more likely germany. Then albert einstein and niels bohr wouldnt have fled to the U.S.A and the atomic bomb (if it was still going to be build cause that was also cause of ww2) would have been german. Who knows how the world had looked today if he hadnt died when he did. even if you say that it was only the final spark needed. maybe without that spark all this wouldnt have happened. the rest of the assassinations things would have changed maybe even major things. but nothing to be compared to Ferdinand. He`s assassination was simply the most important in history maybe even one of the most important moments in our history.
Given that the death of Franz Ferdinand started the first world war, his assassination may be the most important in the 20th century. I say that largely because the first world war was the beginning of the modern world as we know it. The idea that war is a bad thing, rather than merely a tool that a nation may use to achieve its goals, didn't become mainstream until that war. Without the treaty of Versailles that ended the first world war, it's entirely probable that the second world war would never have happened. Without the second world war, Britain would have remained a global superpower and America would never have become one. Given how much of modern technology was developed during second world war and the cold war that followed, one can only wonder what kind of world we would live in today had Franz Ferdinand not been assassinated.
these are facts
That's why he was #1 on the top ten political assassinations of the 20th Century...
America would eventually have become a superpower...just a little later. Britains power would have simply died away slowly. Weimar and the Soviet Union would have been the unpredictable factors.
Parker8752 despite the assassination starting WW1, if it didn't happen. Ww1 would've still happened. The tension in Europe was very large because of Moroccan crisis, Bosnian Crisis and the naval arms race etc. The assassination is what made it all topple down. The assassination gave Austria a reason to attack Serbia giving Russia, Germany, Britain and France a reason to attack each over in a large domino effect. Something was gonna push the first domino and trigger ww1 eventually
Charlie Dove "trigger" is the correct word
RIP John Lennon, a pure musical and lyrical genius.
a pure who started the beatlemania
the thing I'm sad the most, is the person who wants to change the world to be a better world were being killed by the person who only wants chaos and nothing...

I think you should have titled this video. "The 10 Most Influential Assassinations in History"
Or top 10 most shocking assassinations in history
Or maybe not be so butthurt.
How is John Lennon more Influential than the Archduke's death
or "Top 10 most butt-hurt CZcams comments"
VonSucky McFaggoty
more influential to American society perhaps. While the Archeduke's death was certainly influential, it was merely a link in the chain of events. Numerous analyses of the year the world went mad show it would have happened anyway, even without his assassination. The great empires were falling, and the Concert of Europe was no longer able to maintain stability.
If only Martin Luther King was alive today..........we need a good speech in a cold world we live in......
Malcolm X should have been in #2.
Kevan Jackson Yeah.
GoldXrose Yeah.
He'd be dead by now, even if he survived his assassination.
Yoshifan0312RBLX I know.
Towards end I was afraid how Gandhi Ji was not even in the honorables 😅
I saw this list name on a C.I.A Commemorative meeting where they gave their top 10 best kills. Not sure it also fits watchmojo
Top 10 makes them sound positive, it should be the worst 10
PROUD_BRIT it might be top 10 in the relevance of historical significance
Rip Martin Luther King Jr 😭
Quincy Jones Faceboy9gaming happy 9/11
Deliverance - bruh lmfao
Deliverance - edgy = funny
You mean all on the list
@Jordan why?
Maybe the title should be "Top 10 most tragic assassinations"
Was expecting Sadat to be on the list
For those saying Lennon shouldn't even be on the list, here's some things for you to consider.
He was one of THE BIGGEST influences in music history, along with the rest of The Beatles. Not only with The Beatles was he influential though, but with his solo music. He's inspired many people, and his what about 'Imagine'? A BIG influence.
Plus, he's a very big inspirational figure even nowadays. When he was assassinated, people who didn't even really KNOW what he was all about were devastated.
Not only his music, but campaigns were respected as well.
"War Is Over! If You Want It?"
"Hair Peace"
Teens on social media quote him to be inspirational all the time! If he wasn't all that popular, or if he doesn't deserve to be on the list, why do people still cry over his death? Why do people still try to carry out what he believed?
Lennon's death was very influential in history. No doubt about it.
Preach
Beatles suck ass
***** A'ight, everyone has their own opinions, man.
yes he was important, but John Lennons death wasn't assassination. he wasn't a politician, he was a singer. so he shouldn't be on this list.
+Dizzy Stone Why does everyone important have to be a politician?
I feel like Ghandi should be #2 and Franz Ferdinand #1. The impact of Ferdinand's death was just so massive.
Fran's just wasn't as big of a racist as old ghandi was. Go and read his paper Indian opinion where he no joke called blacks lazy.
***** Lennon was politically significant. Don't kid yourself he scared the establishment. Who the fuck is Tupac?
Lazio2009 explain how lennon was 'politically' significant
dadadannn Because numerous US presidents were all forced to make multiple press conferences regarding the personal opinions of some members of a boy band that just so happened to have hundreds of millions of fans on both sides of the Iron Curtain.
Lazio2009 That's all he did, "scare the establishment." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. And that's not even why he was assassinated. He yelled Boo! and that was it. If we were talking about musicians who died, this would make more sense because that was his only big contribution. Simply, "scaring the man" doesn't count for shit when franz Ferdiand's death caused WW1, WW2, and basically every major conflict afterwards.
Strange that Alqn Berg's photo was in the thumbnail but wasn't mentioned at all
Now include:
The Assassination of Shinzo Abe.
why do good people die and not the bad ones.
Sparta McCloud if you think lee Harvey Oswald got killed

Sparta McCloud cause it's God's will 😢
all people die. bad people make that day come sooner for good people
Sparta McCloud cause they sold soul bro
Malcolm was the most impressive and effective civil rights leader, knew he would get assassinated by combined effort of CIA, FBI and some deranged gullible previous colleague, he went around the world , advocating human rights for the Afro Americans , in the Middle Eastern countries, in African countries and in England. The debate just a week or two before his death at the Oxford Union was just awe inspiring. He advocating civil rights and human rights to be instituted here and now, can't wait any longer approach, by any means possible, all that left with no choice to those politicians of those days, but to immediately act , to give human rights to the human beings that were deprived of their rights for 4 centuries.!!!.
Amazing achievement of Malcolm and his Mentor Elijah and those he mentored too, including Mohammad Ali. They were an amazing 3 Musketeers. Malcolm, Elijah and Mohammad Ali.
Sad but true...real heroes
Malcolm X was a racist extremist, he only had influence over fellow bigots.
@@jaquillahillahfoodstamps And white people wanted everyone but themselves dead. Whats your point?
Real IN that’s true but that doesn’t mean there has to be a double standard. MLK wanted love and peace with white people not hate. That’s why people look up to him instead of Malcom. I’m Jewish so obv Neo Nazis hate me. But I’d rather make peace with them and change their ways instead of killing them. Teach them love and respect.
@@jaquillahillahfoodstamps nigga you sound stupid. Whites killed alot of INNOCENT Colored people especially my ancestors and other family members who suffered.
Benazir Bhutto stayed in a Hotel where I was working security, she hired me and another guy to escort her to a conference she was speaking at. We all went in the same limo. We were placed on different sides of the stage, hidden by curtains. She seemed very pleasant. I was very young, maybe 22, and I was unaware of the danger she was in. I was also blissfully ignorant of the danger I was putting myself in!
The third edition of The Book of Lists has an interesting list of a dozen historical figures who were assassinated- from Caesar to MLK, and, what they each had planned to do for the rest of the day.
