Man survives Columbine shooting then Aurora shooting 13 years later
    #16576109 -

Y'all hear about this? That must be really frightening to live through two spree shootings I can't imagine how this guy must feel.

Quote:
Samuel Granillo was a 17-year-old junior at Columbine High School when two gunmen walked the halls committing one of the worst mass shootings in recent US history.

He survived by hiding in the cafeteria kitchen for three hours until help arrived - but good friends were lost.

Memories and nightmares of that day are ever present in Mr Granillo's mind, but now at 30 he has built a life for himself as a filmmaker.

He is even working on a documentary called "Columbine: Wounded Minds" advocating counselling for other Columbine survivors.

But now he must live through the tragedy of another mass shooting - this time at an Aurora, Colorado, movie theatre where one of his friends was killed as he watched the new Batman film.

Mr Granillo tries to draw on experiences from Columbine to help surviving friends, but he must balance this with the rush of memories the killings bring back.

& then there's that one victim who survived a mall shooting a week (or month) prior, then was killed at the movie theatre.

That's some Final Destination crap right there.

I wouldn't exactly call it an insignificant event.

How many people live through two spree killings??

hahaha subjectively to each individual that was there, those were killed family members and friends it is an incredibly significant event.

just like the kid last week who got a hose from an air compressor shoved up his asshole and pumped air into him. it was insignificant as the doctor cut his stomach to release the air out, but if we there or related it may as possibly be as surreal as hearing it.

Or at least, this title is extremely misleading.  The person in the article was not at the theatre.

This was my impression as well.

...the whole experience is (and is as) a profound piece of knowledge.  It is an indellible experience; it is forever known.  I have known myself in a way I doubt I would have ever occurred except as it did.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.

sounds like fate to me for this poor guy to have to tolerate such useless violence in his life but maybe its good because will be able to hear his perspective in that book hes writing.  but im crazy like that always asking why and all.

because its just not natural to die in vain. in fact its downright inhuman.

its sad and it happens too damn much.

and as someone already mentioned, what about the woman who survived the toronto mall shooting a couple months ago, then somehow shows up in a colorado movie theater but this time wasn't so lucky...that's way more bizarre
