The most haunting image I remember from that website was a photograph of a young boy who'd had his lower jaw cut off to punish his mother. It has stuck in my mind for nearly three decades. How could someone do that to a child? Horrifying.
- kakacik 5mo agoWell, I guess you havent seen the picture from belgian Congo, when they chopped the hands of small daughter of a farm worker and brought them to him to motivate him to work harder. People can be vicious animals rather easily, once 'the others' are dehumanized its not worse than behavior towards animals in slaughterhouse. it doesnt take much, look at various conflicts around the world, look at how drug cartels in south/central america behave.
- suddenlybananas 5mo agoBoth are absolutely horrific and evil but I don't see why that one would be worse than the one the comment above you mentioned.
- Joeboy 5mo agoNot really answering your question, but the Belgian Congo photo is probably more notable and consequential. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nsala_of_Wala_in_the_Nsongo_District https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nsala_of_Wala_in_the_Nsongo_Di...

- suddenlybananas 5mo agoI am aware it's more famous. I've already seen it, but I'm not sure it's more disturbing as a photo (admittedly I am not going to look at the one described above to compare).
- elwell 5mo agoGRAPHIC WARNING ^^^^^ Even though it's on wikipedia; it's horrible.

- phplovesong 5mo agoHorrible. More recent (i wont post any links) are the reddit community (i wont name it here) where some girl did self harm by cutting to her thigh. It was not the "usual" skin deep cuts, but this girl cut all the way to the bone. Some things you wish you can unsee. The most horrible thing i have seen on the net.
- bitwize 5mo agoI remember one of these sites had an image of a man who was a victim of a failed suicide attempt by "suck-starting a shotgun". The entire lower half of his face had been blown off. He was still alive.
