What the most disturbing or creepy thing that you've ever witnessed in real life? (r/AskReddit)

[Music] serious what the most disturbing or creepy thing that you've ever witnessed in real life I'm a paramedic and have been for about ten years now and I've seen a lot of disturbing things but one thing sticks out to me more than the rest when I was still new I went on a call for flu-like symptoms and the elderly lady literally had just fever body aches and a cough with no other complaints so we are all thinking she might actually have the flu she wanted to go to the hospital so we got her on the cot and the design of her ground-floor apartment with all her furniture made it impossible to turn the cot around so we had to wheel her out backwards with me at her feet and staring at her face we just get out the door when she lets out this horrible gurgle scream turns gray and slumped over my partner and another firefighter were next to her head and confirmed she had no pulse we are close to the truck so we load her up while I start CPR as I start pumping her chest she goes from this blank stare of the Dead to looking right at me with this confused look on her face and started moving her arms trying to get me to stop so I do instantly she was back to dead again complete with blank stare and no movement this time the three of us all confirmed no pulse and so I continued CPR and she starts looking up at me again with that same confused look and moving her arms around again now I'm thinking this has got to be a mistake she can't be dead and moving while I do CPR can she I stop check still dead with no pulse resume CPR and yes again she was looking up right at my eyes moving again so weirded out as I was I just started talking to her to try to let her know why I was doing CPR on her as my partner got the cardiac monitor defibrillator pads stuck on her when I stopped for the rhythm check she was in ventricular fibrillation a single shock and we got a slow pulse back started the cardiac monitors pacing function and while she never regained consciousness we got her to the hospital alive found out later she ultimately died at the hospital but I'll never forget that look on her face while we made eye contact while I did CPR on her I had no idea that could happen but the doctor in the ER told me that if CPR is started quickly enough in the compressions are deep enough you actually can remain somewhat conscious during it even if your heart is otherwise not beating has happened to me a handful of times since then and so I always talk to my dead patients now while we doing CPR just in case dude this just happened to me a week ago we went to Applebee's yeah those are still a thing last week with our family we have a big family so it was like 13 to 14 people and I have a lot of younger cousins anyways it's hectic because there are a lot of kids and one of the kids asks to go to the bathroom she's around 6 to 7 years old and as I said things were hectic so she went by herself didn't really think much of it I go to the bathroom about 2 minutes later and in the front lobby but kinda to the side where you can't see them I see an elderly man talking to my little cousin smiling at her and making her laugh at first I thought it was another family member coming in to say hi to her but it was not he was a charming guy I could tell well at least two children and anyways I see him take her hand and make way towards the door I immediately go up to the guy and said pooj Indian name I'm Indian do you know this man the guy instantly froze and his face turned white she said she just met him and the guy immediately gave some really weird and vague answer that he was taking her out to take her to her parents the guy was rattled I knew immediately he was trying to kidnap her and he knew that I knew he immediately just left the Applebee's it's not that creepy and I'm not very good at writing or explaining things but what scared me was just how casual and charming the guy was to the girl like he had no remorse and you can tell he knew exactly what he was doing what is even more frightening is this is a nice place in town and my little cousin was just unattended for two minutes I don't have kids and I would get mad at my parents when they were overprotective but I completely understand why they did that it's only been a week or so since but ever since then I randomly will think about that man and how different my cousin's life could have been so creepy how it can just happen so easily I was pooping in a restroom in the back of a food court in the bottom of a large tower a sixty plus story tower in Houston it was a pretty small bathroom and kinda out of the way which is why I was there to do my business well I'm just starting to wrap things up and in walks a young man who proceeded to the urinal and does his thing I only catch a quick glimpse of him through the crack in the stall he seems to be in his mid to late 20s when he is washing his hands his phone rings and he starts talking to my presence I can hear a tinny female voice on the other end I tucked my feet up and listened at first she doesn't know who this girl is but he quickly figures out that she's a girl he hooked up with on a recent business trip he's going to be back there soon maybe they can hang out he asks maybe she says kin but she has news she's pregnant and she wants to get an abortion she wants him to pay for it he agrees he asks her if there is anything else he can do should he go with her to get it done no she doesn't want that she doesn't really want to see him again he was calm supportive of her decision they ended the conversation almost gently as if afraid of hurting each other further after he hung up it was dead silent for about 15 seconds and then he broke down I stayed very very still I did not want to see this intimately into his life I had only wanted to preserve a sense of privacy but at this point I was committed he cursed and cried for about five minutes then gave himself a little pep talk in the mirror this was I learned not the first time he had been in this situation I waited a couple minutes before I left the bathroom as I was walking back through the food court I saw him sitting at a table with various professional looking business people all smiling and convivial all evidence of the storm he just weather gone from his face lived in the downtown area of my city for three years with my husband one night after closing down our favorite bar we decided to walk down the street and get a couple slices of pizza on the way there we see a girl who is so messed up she literally cannot walk like literally seems like she is falling down drunk trying to walk down the street her head is rolling from side to side as she is walking just picture a 110-pound ragdoll trying to stand then we realized that she is digging in her bag like she's looking for keys so I stopped her and asked if she is okay and she just keeps going I have to get away I have to get away that's when we noticed the trail of blood on the sidewalk behind her her neck is bright red like she had been choked and her lip is swollen we call 9-1-1 she finally takes a deep breath and says she thinks she was drugged but no she was raped before we can even get her calmed down enough to tell us her name a guy with a big scratch on his face and blood on his shirt comes walking up and starts saying she is his wife and he needs to get her home my husband stepped in and says no I think we will find out where she needs to go from her the guy tries to swing at my husband who knocks him on his ass my husband pins him down then the girl starts seizing so then we were on the sidewalk my husband has the rapists pinned to the ground I've got the girl's head in my lap hoping she doesn't die while we wait for the ambulance to get there what I always found the most disturbing wasn't the evil that drove that man to rape that woman it was that 10 people gathered around us in the course of the exchange not one offered to help but one did take a video I worked for an assisted living company for about six years during that time I experienced my fair share of death some went peacefully some went smiling some went crying some went with family others with just the staff around them one lady went with something else entirely I was helping out the nursing staff with resident wake-ups because someone had called off one particular resident whom I was assigned to will call her Katherine was a hell of a woman loud sassy hilarious and kind she was very well put together and relatively fit for her age this morning however I noticed that something was off long story made very sure within an hour she was virtually unconscious with severe heart failure as we were already short-staffed none of the nurses or aides could sit with her while she spent her final hours in bed so I decided that I would stay and sit with her until family arrived about three hours i sat with Catherine she mostly slept occasionally she would mumble something or squeeze my hand but mostly she slept with very slow labored breaths a nurse came in to let me know that Catherine's son was just about 20 minutes from the building and that I could go home if I wanted to what was 20 more minutes though I didn't want to leave I'm sitting there with her peacefully knowing that she was likely less than an hour from death I remember very specifically looking at the clock to see how much longer until her son was to arrive in the moment that I looked away Catherine shot straight up stared around where the wall and ceiling met and let out a blood-curdling scream this woman could hardly breath and hadn't moved a muscle in an hour there is absolutely no explanation for her sudden strength nor do I have an explanation for the pure terror in her eyes Catherine used her last breath with that scream she fell back white as paper and was gone the nurses rushed in to ask what happened I barely got it out before I excused myself to the bathroom and I just sat there and shook for an hour I've never been more terrified in my life Catherine's son showed up about five minutes after the nurses told him that she went peacefully and with people by her side but she didn't go peacefully and I left her the second she passed I have never been a believer in an afterlife but this experience rattled me to my core at it a lot of people are commenting about how they saw this before and wondering if I'm even up or if this is even true I am aa penis is true I asked a question the other day on here about unsettling death experiences and this was my answer to it I've submitted this before but it's the most disturbing thing that's happened to me I'm female and was about 20 at the time I lived in a basement apartment with a roommate one night I couldn't sleep it was about 4:00 in the morning I usually got up at 5:00 a.m. to get ready for work so I called in sick I worked for my dad and could get away with that and just sat in my room on the internet in the dark I then got a big whiff of cigarette smoke my roommate at the time and I did not smoke but every once in a while in the mornings while getting ready I would smell cigarette smoke faintly I was often in a hurry and shrugged it off - just being lingering smells on my clothes from visiting smoking friends at this time it was very strong smelling I decided to investigate the smell clearly was coming from my room I decided to get a second opinion from my roommate who stays up until morning gaming he smelled it too and thought it originated from my slightly ajar window he pulled back the blinds to go in for a better sniff a silhouette outside lit from behind by a streetlight shifted away quickly my roommate grabbed a bat and headed outside he found nothing I had crappy plastic broken blinds with horizontal slits so we placed a towel over them and covered every other window in the apartment this same event played out a couple more mornings at about weekly intervals while getting ready for work at about 5:00 a.m. after returning from my shower to my room I would smell smoke lose my cool look out the window and get my roommate who would go outside too late to see anyone we devised a plan - next time not check the window I was to go to my roommate calmly and he would sneak out with his bat to catch the silhouette another morning arrived carrying the scent of smoke the plan worked he caught a man with a big hood that shielded his face from view the man made a feeble excuse about a cat and ran off when it got lighter out I went outside to look at my window the grass was all worn like someone had been sitting there quite often for quite some time there were also cigarette butts everywhere the cops were notified and kept an eye on the area but the silhouette never returned that I knew of at least the moral is always bring your clothes to the bathroom with you when you shower it pains me to think of all the times he must have seen me drop my towel once in eastern Afghanistan we were visiting a small village for some Intel when the elders kept warning us not to talk to the family in a certain house of course we had over there assuming he was an opposition fighter or bomb maker or something a little boy greeted us with a scared look on his face he invited us in while he ran to get his dad some of us went inside a few posted up for security reasons the guy comes in nervous AF the interpreter knows something is super weird with the guy on that he's avoiding questions we also noticed there are a few boys peeping around the corner and no sign of any females the whole thing was weird and very offsetting to the point that we didn't want to find out WTF was going on later on we head back into the village because there's some sort of unrest in the elders keep requesting we help out the problem was with the man who lived at that house the interpreter said he was harboring a dead body we go to dude's house he doesn't respond but one of the boys leads us in in points to the back room long story short the guy was pimping out little boys to other towns one of the boys had ran away when the man found the boy his mother tried to intervene he brutally beat her took her back to his house and killed her he was then forcing the boy to watch an act sex acts with his dead mother the reason why the village was fighting was because most of them wanted to kill him then and there but the desecration was so bad that the surviving boy went mute some villagers wanted to find the father before they did anything so he could witness and possibly perform the execution a lot of the villagers wanted to all-out go to war with the tribe that the man was from it's important to note that they all knew he was pimping out the tea boys and never said a peep it was when he harbored a dead body and had sex with another married man's wife that the issues came [ __ ] that place so we were driving to school second-to-last day Lowell and we saw a car flipped over in a ditch the car was upside down and there was broken glass everywhere and there were two people a man and a woman that looked like they were fighting we pulled over and offered to call a tow truck guy oh no we're okay thank you god bless woman please help me he's kidnapped me and he's going to kill me the guy was laughing it off saying she was just drunk it's all good thanks my grandma driver called 9-1-1 saying she was calling a tow truck and i open the side door about an inch and yelled run the poor thing jumped in our car and started screaming and crying the guy came running to the car and my grandma hit Haiti in like two seconds I am 90% sure he had a gun but couldn't run and shoot and that's why we lived turns out she was meeting him from tinder or something and met up at his mom's house then go to his house so she'd have somewhere to leave her four-year-old they got drunk he wanted to hook up and she didn't and she tried to go back to her car but he beat her up threw her in his car and that's all I could gather from her as far as she knew her kid was still with the guys mom emergency services picked her up and tried to discredit her story because of the track marks on her arms and neck she ended up with a black eye and a broken arm we were going to be called as witnesses but she dropped the charges because of how the EMTs acted just because she might have been on drugs doesn't make her assault any less valid fuck-you SE louisiana EMTs when I was on holiday last year me and my girlfriend were sitting on the beach playing cards in the afternoon it was pretty quiet at the end of the holiday season so there weren't too many people about still while we played cards we entertained ourselves with people watching as you do we both noticed a couple about fifty meters away who were clearly very drunk staggering round and sipping a bottle of nearly empty vodka the beach we were on was pebbly with a man-made edge that dropped down to the shallow surf where they were was where the drop-off was highest and I stupidly joked with my missus that I bet you they fall off no less than ten seconds later we watch this lady stagger forwards trip and tumble back first over the edge in slow motion she smashed her back on a some rocks in the shallows she didn't even make a found which almost made it worse but everyone did this collective gasp is her backbend unnaturally and then she slumped into the water I ran into the sea to help her and started to drag her out but as I was doing it she didn't react at all I couldn't tell if she wasn't moving because she was paralysed from the fall or just drunk in my head I remember thinking me dragging her out could actually be what makes her crippled for the rest of her life if she's damaged her back but if I did nothing she'd just drown the boyfriend sobered up pretty quick and went to call for help and my girlfriend went to get staff from our hotel but nobody else did nothing we saw her later that holiday walking so luckily I think her being drunk saved her from really life-changing damage but that experience did disturbed me [Music]
