What's The Fastest A Crowd Went From Happy To Horrified? (AskReddit)

what's the fastest you've seen a crowd go from excited to horrified an animal show at Busch Gardens the camels started [ __ ] the climax of the last Twilight movie is a fight scene that goes on for 10 minutes vampires are ripping each other's heads off giant wolves are throwing them around like chew toys and one by one each of Bella's friends and family die around her you can actually hear people in the audience relax as each named character dies and none of this happened in the book which was criticized for its lack of climax as each minute goes on it feels like they improved the film's story to give it a real sense of danger and excitement and payoff to the series so shit's intense and right as they kill the big bad evil guy the camera fades to black pulls out and reveals that all of it was a vision the last 10 minutes didn't happen it was someone seeing a future that might happen no one died just a bunch of vampires and wolf standing around staring at each other in silence then they all walk away alive and well the crowd groans a girl up front shouts are you [ __ ] me everyone sits back in their seat no one cares about what's happening on screen anymore some people are laughing because someone hit the ante button on the most exciting 10 minutes of the movie never have I seen a theater turn on a film so quickly and so hard Pink Floyd often would have giant floating pigs released during the concert you know inflatable balloons this would happen like halfway through the show well people are smoking tons of pot drinking doing god knows what other drugs so by the time the pig is released it's basically like God descending from the heavens people were losing their [ __ ] at the pig well it got caught in one of the wires and caught on fire you've never seen so many stoners fall to their knees in terror / fear / sorrow over the death of a giant inflatable pig there is no God anymore his bacon got fried I saw this on YouTube somewhere a bodybuilder was strutting his stuff in front of a crowd warming them up and everything at an event they absolutely loved it many people had attended just to see him he was at his peak huge muscles and sculpted physique absolutely amazing I don't personally like the bodybuilding look but you've got a respect hard work the crowd was cheering him and he got so pumped up so full of energy and emotion that instead of just walking onto the stage he did an impromptu jump flip he launched himself high into the air and did this impressive flip the crowd went berserk but he was a bodybuilder not a gymnast he landed on his neck and died instantly crumpling on the spot it is one of the most horrific sudden and unexpected things I've ever seen maybe the worst part was not all of the crowds realized immediately they kept smiling and cheering for the hero for another minute before it sank in that they had just witnessed him die right in front of them and they were clapping for a dead man a friend of mine decided it would be fun to try and see if he could smash a beer glass on his head up until then he was just being her enthusiastic drunk and had some positive attention he then decided the beer glass thing was a good idea and promptly executed it head wounds bleed a lot in the first minute crowd went from Ottawa your cubes are fool Lucky's gonna die I sobered up in an instant and gotta semi clean towel for him to stop the bleeding thankfully head wounds also stopped bleeding pretty quick in most instances Monday Night Football November 18th 1985 Washington Redskins vs. the New York Giants I was pretty young at the time so being allowed to stay up late on a weekday was a rare occasion during one of the plays Joe Theismann was sacked by Larenz Taylor and Harry Carson of the Giants the entire stadium went silent as these men would end up suffering a compound fracture of the tibia and fibula what I remember most vividly is that the broadcast kept replaying it over and over again and seeing shin snap at a 90 degree angle it made me physically nauseous and had to walk out of the room if I recall correctly following the injury broadcasting policies were changed so that constant replays like this would not be shown in the future I don't know if this counts but I'm a huge fan of nineties rock on Slipgate Seether mushroom head etc anyways I've always wanted to see Marilyn Manson in concert and he was opening for I think one of the mentioned bangs above a few years back anyways he comes on and just looked horrible kind of slurring but whatever I get it so like four songs and he starts singing beautiful people and mostly everyone seemed into it well maybe b/c it's chi-x and it was an outdoor venue over 100 degrees but he just goes [ __ ] it you'll suck and walks off stage took a few seconds to register with everyone he wasn't joking and every starts booing and cussing I was legit excited and it just turned to garbage so quick the station nightclub fire small packed Club great white was playing with unauthorized pyrotechnics suddenly caught the building on fire emergency exits were locked and people jammed the exit door 100 died thankfully didn't see it in person but there is a yacht of video showing the whole thing it is a very traumatic watch though so wouldn't really watch it unless you want it imprinted strong enough in your brain so that he will always look for exits when going into a crowded area for the rest of your life when working on a kids show a child goes missing within the first 15 minutes of the show starting show had an emergency stop so the parents could plead for the child to make himself know nobody was allowed to leave their seats or leave the building whole building had to be searched everyone assumed the worse but after half an hour they resumed the show even though the kids still had not been found 10 minutes later we got word that the kid had wandered out of the building and was found safe and sound around the corner to make matters worse the show was Rapunzel you know where the story centers around a kidnapped child several years back and my band opens up for a hardcore punk outfit from Illinois at an all-ages venue where they have a sci-fi theme to their show the singer dresses up as a mad scientist and the other three members dress up as his evil robots they also have old television sets plugged in around the stage playing 1950s b-horror movies while they play no one including the people running the venue have ever seen these guys played before but going off of the theme we are expecting something awesome that is until I'm backstage putting my equipment away and notice them all pounding back shots of tequila when it's their turn to play they're so hammered they can't even make it through one verse of a song the singer ended up drop kicking one of the tv s into the crowd of about 200 people which caught fire this calls the sound guy to end their set right there and they were banned from the venue for life I've never seen a crowd go from happy - oh [ __ ] so fast Harley Davidson 100th anniversary party for months they said the headliner of the big weekend long party was a mystery guests everyone assumed it would be someone who appeals to the Harley crowd like the Rolling Stones or Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band right so the show starts opening act is the Doobie Brothers in the crowd loved it next is Tim McGraw and the crowd loved it next was Kid Rock and he just rocks in the crowd loves it then it's time for the mystery guest it's Elton [ __ ] John the crowd just pulled out of the park plenty stayed and enjoyed the show but tens of thousands of people said [ __ ] this and left years ago I was at a company holiday party where they rented a live karaoke band for the event I looked through their song list to see what they had I noticed the misfits last caress on their which was a song I loved but seemed so out of place for those of you that don't know the song it starts out with I got something to say I killed your baby today and it doesn't matter much to me as long as it's dead I thought Matt I kind of want to do that song but I really shouldn't but after many many drinks later I was drunk enough to not care I get up on stage and request the song the band starts going and I get super into it just belting the lyrics into the microphone now it wasn't the [ __ ] up lyrics that got to people I'm not even sure they had any idea what I was singing because they were cheering me on what shocked them was when I accidentally lifted the microphone too fast to my face and smacked myself on the mouth my lips started bleeding badly and I could see people in the crowd go from hill - OMG a co-worker of mine rushed onstage pulled me aside and called me a cab home I have a fun little memento from that night - because the next day I still showed up on time which surprised everyone because of that I won this award for being the drunkest at the party and still showing up the next day was working as a Baxter geminate er in a medium-sized concert venue we had quite a famous band with a crazy singer that used weird props on their Rider a list bands give to venues with their wishes they demanded we arranged two buckets of pig blood of course we did not do this show was going well people were having a good time until the singer took out a steak knife he stole from our restaurant and started slicing his arms open he was really making deep cuts and it was horrifying to watch blood was everywhere most people in the audience were shocked some were dry heaving when the show was over the singer was dripping blood all over the backstage area smearing it on the walls I was fairly young and scheduled to work alone that night so I was way in over my head I tried to reason with him but at that point he was very intoxicated and there was no point talking to him our backstage area looked like someone was murdered there when I tried talking to this to Gemini Joe he shut me up very quickly he was probably sick of dealing with the new staff complaining about the singer he did this [ __ ] all the time the band was notorious regarding these kinds of crazy acts I had to put up with a lot of [ __ ] working as a Baxter Gemini Joe bands wrecking the backstage rooms making a mess everywhere being sexist being too [ __ ] up to stand on their feet you name it but covering the whole stage and backstage with their blood that was a first we had to repaint the whole area because there is no point trying to clean the blood smears fairly shortly after I changed careers because I could not deal with that anymore there was a Darren brown show called remote control it was all about the effects of mob mentality the crowd had to decide whether something nice happened or something bad happened to the same person each time the thing would be better or worse than the last eventually it led to them deciding that he would be kidnapped they were all watching live on hidden cameras in a studio by the way when the kidnapping was attempted it showed him evading them but running into the road and getting hit by a car the whole crowd gasps and eventually people asked the filming to stop the last part was just an actor stuntman Doe went to see the pockemon movie with my fellow group home residents as a treat there were maybe 70 of us there most had never been to a movie theater before so it was a pretty big deal the house even splurged to get everyone a small soda candy and a portion of popcorn this was literally the best day of most of our lives so far we get settled in taking up most of the theater when the credits started and the lights dimmed we were so excited pockemon the movie was about to freakin start opening at start we are silent the whole time in anticipation then the credits never ended we thought because this one had seemed to go on forever some kind of a spoof of an alien movie maybe a play on Star Trek credits rolled lights turned on nobody spoke every single face was deflated and so so freaking disappointed someone screwed up and played Galaxy Quest instead of a brand new at the time pockemon movie nobody talked the whole way back to the house but as soon as we got there so many kids lost it I didn't end up seeing it until like ten years later and it blew mine haha I was at a sporting event where someone proposed to their girlfriend in the crowd and they put it on the jumbotron they panned the camera to the woman with the man's outstretched arm holding a ring she's beaming as she realizes what's happening and the crowd was in a joyful applause they then panned the camera down to the husband-to-be who turns to face the camera I'm sorry there is no other way to say this he was very ugly over the span of about five seconds the joyful hooting and hollering turns into one gigantic 15,000 person a sound it was agonizing my recollection of the event the ugh sound transformed back into good for you hooting and hollering but that might just be my memory trying to downplay the cringe factor Street Patrick's Day 2012 during a football soccer game between Tottenham Hotspur and Bolton Wanderers a player Fabrice Muamba collapsed on the pitch due to cardiac arrest the game was televised and I was watching it at my local pub the pub became eerily silent there was a weird sense of things not being good and everyone was concerned for a player we barely knew of football fans might be loud ruffians but there's a lot of respect when things go wrong fortunately Fabrice survived and recovered however he retired on doctor's his advice I was brought to Korea once and the matador got his leg impaled by the bull while he was trying to get over a fence the crowd started screaming and booing the bull like it was a foul move I was like Mayo the dude [ __ ] stabbed it what was it supposed to do recite poetry I've told this before but here we go my cousin a few friends and I went to the first screening of NJ it was a double bill so we sat in the theater watching both infinity war and then Jane with a brief intermission the atmosphere in that movie was like being at a football u-k match with the crowd going wild we get to the end of the film then ass gnats on nothing the room fell silent the camera turns to show Iron Man in the stones forming onto his hand everyone goes crazy screaming as Iron Man says his line and snaps his fingers the screen goes white and everyone stands up and holds their breath ready to scream in excitement for whatever is about to happen during the silence my cousin sat next to me as a realization and a thought pops into his head only in his sleep-deprived excitement it's not in his head it comes out his mouth and very loudly he says oh god he's dead isn't he the suspense in the room died in an instant and I heard someone at the back of the theater say [ __ ] he's right isn't he the woman two seats to my left started sobbing and then slowly people start sitting down around the theater went to a burlesque show in Florida this particular group were very well known for a lot of gross-out humor and politically charged jokes I should note this was during the 2016 election cycle so the show went on just fine and everyone is laughing and having a good time until they make a joke about candidate Donald Trump element of the crowd got ugly people started throwing abuse people started threatening violence one guy started screaming about Bill Clinton being a racist who must die a few people had to be removed by security I've never seen a crowd turn so fast on a performer it was pretty scary for a few minutes they powered through and most of the offended parties stormed out I talked to the leader of the band and asked if it was normal he said nope usually a handful of people get offended but that's what the show is advertised for a shame they are no longer touring really so to recap naked women dancing around okay naked fat guy with dildo in his mouth singing a song about being cute that's okay naked guy stomping on babies with comedic amount of blood that's okay jokes about religion okay jokes about Trump triggered I was at a Warped Tour in Chicago circa 2015 sleeping With Sirens was playing one of my childhood favorites the whole crowd was going hard until the set was cut 20 minutes short by some girl who passed out in the middle of the crowd they canceled the rest of the set and I know it may sound bad but a lot of people were saying negative stuff about the person who couldn't keep themselves hydrated the next year sleeping With Sirens set was cut short because of an incoming thunderstorm I think they were doomed to play in Chicago long [Music]
