Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Virginia, April 16th, 2007.
5
So it was Monday morning on April 16th, 2007, when everyone at Virginia Tech probably wished they could hit the snooze button on life.
6
You know that feeling when you wake up and just wish the weekend didn't have to end?
7
Little did they know, this Monday would turn out to be way worse than anyone could have imagined.
8
You see, there was a student named Sunghee Cho, who wasn't exactly known for being the life of the party.
9
In fact, he was quite the opposite.
10
He was a bit of a loner, didn't talk much, and had some troubling behavior that had people worried about him.
11
But unfortunately, things went from concerning to downright horrifying that day.
12
It all started early in the morning around 7 .15 a .m at West Ambler Johnston Hall, a dormitory on campus.
13
Cho first attacked a female student and a resident assistant who came to check on the commotion,
14
but at this point the school didn't know exactly what was going on, so they treated it like an isolated incident.
15
But Cho had other plans, and sadly it was just the beginning.
16
Now, something really strange happened because after the first shooting, Cho actually went back to his dorm room,
17
changed clothes, and mailed a package to NBC News.
18
That's right, he essentially took a lunch break from his terrible plans to mail a 23 -page manifesto
19
that contained some really explicit content and showed how much the guy just basically hated humans.
20
Then, around 9 .40 a .m., Cho moved on to Norris Hall, an academic building where classes were underway.
21
So he basically walked into a class, chained the doors shut, and began his second, more brutal attack.
22
This time around, he was armed with two guns and moved through the classroom, firing on students and professors like it was target practice.
23
And by the time it was over, 32 people had lost their lives and 17 others were injured.
24
After about 10 minutes of horror, Cho turned one of the guns on himself, and by the time the police finally made it inside,
25
the shooter had taken his own life.
26
This was the deadliest school shooting in U .S history.
27
Sandy Hook Elementary School, Newton, Connecticut.
28
December 14th, 2012.
29
It was Friday, December 14th, 2012, when students and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut were probably getting into the holiday spirit.
30
Well, that holiday spirit took a very dark turn fast, and nobody could have seen this coming.
31
Basically, 20 -year -old Adam Lonza, who had been suffering from mental health problems for a while,
32
decided that December 14th would be a day of unspeakable violence.
33
It all started around 9 .30am, but get this, before heading to the school, Lanza started his morning by fatally shooting his mother at their home.
34
You'd think he could have just skipped breakfast or something, but nope, he had a twisted day to start.
35
Afterward, he drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School, which was only about five miles away with two semi -automatic rifles and two handguns.
36
Lanza started by shooting his way through a locked glass door at the school's entrance, which is never a good way to enter a building.
37
Then he made his way to two classrooms, both full of first graders, and what happened next was just simply tragic.
38
Within minutes, this guy had offed 20 children and six staff members who tried to protect them.
39
The kids were all between six and seven years old, and the staff members, true heroes, did everything they could to shield their students.
40
It was one of the most sad and heartbreaking things to happen on school grounds ever.
41
In the horrific final act, the 20 -year -old monster unalived himself before the police could arrive.
42
Umpqua Community College, Roseburg, Oregon, October 1st, 2015.
43
Just imagine it's a normal Thursday morning and you're regretting
44
that third cup of coffee and not really looking forward to the next class because, let's face it, not everyone is thrilled to discuss
45
The Great Gatsby before noon.
46
But at Umpqua Community College, what started as a typical day quickly turned into one of the worst days ever.
47
Let's talk about a plot twist no one asked for.
48
Now, Chris Harper Mercer was a 26 -year -old student at the college, but this wasn't your average guy stressing over midterms.
49
Harper Mercer showed up on campus armed with six guns, a whole lot of ammo, in an attitude worse than Monday mornings.
50
If he'd poured all that energy into his studies, he might have aced a few exams instead of failing humanity.
51
He literally walked into his writing class, not to discuss Shakespeare, but to act out a horror story no one signed up for.
52
It began at exactly 10 .38 a .m and apparently before shooting,
53
he'd ask you about your religion as if he were hosting the world's most twisted quiz show.
54
He took the lives of nine people and injured nine others in a matter of minutes.
55
By the time the police arrived, Harper Mercer was probably realizing his grand.. plan wasn't going to end the way he thought.
56
There was a brief exchange of gunfire before he took his own life.
57
He'd probably seen enough cop shows to know how things usually turn out for the bad guys.
58
Spoiler alert, they don't ride off into the sunset.
59
Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, Parkland, Florida, February 14th, 2018.
60
It was Valentine's Day, a day for chocolate, love notes, and awkward crush confessions.
61
Most students were probably hoping for a low -key day, maybe a candy gram or two,
62
but instead they got an unwanted guest who was all about spreading terror instead of love.
63
If Cupid had a worst nightmare cousin, this guy was it.
64
So it all started when Nicholas Cruz, a 19 -year -old former student who was expelled the year before because of disciplinary issues,
65
came back to exert revenge.
66
He was initially removed from the school because he was always getting in trouble,
67
bullying other students, and had a very bad history of seriously troubling behavior.
68
Let's just say he wasn't exactly voted most likely to succeed, and his actions that day would seal his unfortunate legacy.
69
At around 2 .19pm, Cruz took an Uber to the school as if he were just another student late for class,
70
but instead of a backpack full of textbooks, he had an AR -15 rifle and a bag full of ammunition.
71
He entered the school through an unlocked door and triggered a fire alarm, hoping to maximize the chaos by getting everyone out in the open.
72
As students and staff started to evacuate, Cruz opened fire.
73
It was a chaotic scene as he moved through the hallways, firing indiscriminately at students and teachers.
74
Within six minutes, 17 people lost their lives, including both teachers and students, and another 17 were injured.
75
The psycho Cruz eventually blended in with the crowd of fleeing students and walked off campus like nothing had happened.
76
But not long after, police caught up with him about two miles away and he was taken into custody without a fight.
77
The nation was left stunned
78
and the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School were left to pick up the pieces after this nightmare.
79
Well, thankfully, Cruz was charged with 17 counts of first -degree murder
80
and 17 counts of attempted murder for the lives lost and the injuries he caused.
81
With these charges, the prosecutors were seeking the death penalty given the severity of his actions.
82
However, on October 13, 2022, after a lengthy trial, a jury recommended that Cruz be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole,
83
rather than the death penalty.
84
But the jury's decision was based on a split vote, which meant that the death penalty couldn't be applied under Florida law,
85
which required a unanimous decision for such a sentence.
86
Perm State University, Perm, Russia, September 20, 2021
87
Just imagine you're a student, minding your own business, maybe cursing your alarm clock for dragging you out of bed,
88
and as you're strolling to class, you hear it.
89
A loud bang that sounds like someone dropped their overpriced textbook, but way scarier.
90
You freeze, your pulse quickens, and suddenly, the usual suspects of academic stress seem like child's play.
91
This was the reality for many on September 20th, 2021, when 18 -year -old Timur Bekmansarov entered the campus with a weapon and opened fire.
92
Timur wasn't your typical freshman.
93
He wasn't worried about passing his finals.
94
He was focused on carrying out a deadly plan he'd apparently been harboring for years.
95
Before this, Timur had posted a manifesto online before the attack, revealing a disturbing fascination with mass shootings.
96
He apparently saw himself as some kind of dark figure but the reality was a lot less cinematic.
97
Instead of becoming infamous, he'd end up remembered as a symbol of senseless violence.
98
As Tamar made his way across campus at around 11 a .m., panic spread faster than a gossip chain at a high school dance.
99
This guy was just firing at random, targeting students and staff in his path.
100
Imagine trying to get to your 11 a .m lecture, thinking the worst part of your day is the class itself,
101
only to be faced with a gunman on a rampage.
102
Students, professors, and staff scrambled for safety, turning classrooms and lecture halls into impromptu bunkers.
103
Some barricaded doors with whatever they could find,
104
desks, chairs, maybe even a few heavy textbooks that would finally serve a practical purpose beyond causing back pain.
105
During the shooting, six people lost their lives and 47 others were injured, but luckily, Russian law enforcement arrived quickly and engaged Timur.
106
During the confrontation, he was shot and injured by the police before being taken into custody.
107
In the days that followed, grief and disbelief watched over Perm State University.
108
People struggled to understand why such an event had taken place, but, like that confusing calculus problem you just can't solve, some questions remain unanswered.
109
Columbine High School, Littleton, Colorado, April 20th, 1999.
110
It was a sunny Tuesday, and students at Columbine High School were probably more focused on homework, gossip, and their plans for the weekend.
111
However, two seniors, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, had something far worse in mind.
112
The thing is, these two weren't your average high school pranksters.
113
They were angry, cruel kids, and their humor was darker than a black hole.
114
The crazy part about this whole story is that these guys were actually known for being very smart.
115
Though, as it turned out, they used their brains for all the wrong reasons.
116
Apparently, they had even been planning this attack for over a year, making videos, writing in journals, and amassing weapons.
117
If they put that much effort into a school project, they may have gotten an A -plus instead of being terrible human beings.
118
The tragic showdown started on April 20th, 1999, around 11 .19am, when Eric and Dylan entered Columbine High School armed with guns,
119
homemade explosives, and twisted ambitions.
120
They initially planted propane bombs in the school cafeteria, hoping they'd explode and cause mass casualties.
121
Luckily, if you can say that, the bombs didn't go off as planned, but that didn't stop them.
122
They started shooting students outside the school and then moved into the library, where they spent the next 20 minutes targeting and terrorizing their classmates.
123
By the time it was over, they had taken the lives of 12 students and one teacher and injured over 20 others.
124
After their rampage in the library, Eric and Dylan moved around the school for a while, seemingly unsure of their next move.
125
Then they started to fire shots at empty rooms all over again, basically taunting survivors.
126
Eventually, they returned to the library and turned their guns on themselves.
127
The entire ordeal lasted about 47 minutes, but it left a lasting impact that would be felt for decades.
128
Red Lake Senior High School, Red Lake, Minnesota, March 21st,
129
2005 You see, Red Lake is a tight -knit community on the Red Lake Indian Reservation where life is usually pretty calm.
130
It's the kind of place where everyone knows everyone, so it's safe to say that March 21st,
131
2005 wasn't exactly what anyone had in mind for a normal day.
132
That morning, life went from small -town sleepy to nightmare mode faster than a toddler can destroy a clean living room.
133
It all started when Jeff Weiss, a 16 -year -old student at Red Lake Senior High School
134
who had been struggling with a lot of family issues and mental health struggles, finally decided to take a very dark approach to his problems.
135
Now Jeff was a bit of a loner who spent hours and hours online posting and watching dark and violent content.
136
Weiss started his day of horror at home where he tragically shot his grandfather who was a tribal police officer
137
and his grandfather's girlfriend.
138
Then he took his grandfather's guns and a bulletproof vest
139
and drove to Red Lake Senior High School in his grandfather's squad car.
140
It's like bring your grandparent to school day, but on a whole new horrifying level.
141
Weiss arrived at the school around 2 .45 p .m and shot his way through the entrance to begin his rampage.
142
This guy moved from room to room, firing at random, and in just a matter of minutes, he offed seven people at the school.
143
Five students, one teacher, and one security guard.
144
Imagine being in your last period thinking you're almost home free and then hearing gunshots.
145
It's the kind of plot twist that no one signs up for.
146
The school went into immediate lockdown with students and teachers scrambling for cover.
147
It was chaos, fear, and confusion all wrapped into one terrible scene.
148
He eventually injured several other people before offing himself.
149
Oikos University, Oakland, California, April 2nd, 2012.
150
It was a Monday, and you know how Mondays are.
151
People drag themselves out of bed, grumble over their coffee, and wonder why weekends don't last longer.
152
But sadly for students and staff at Oikos University, a small religious college in Oakland, this particular Monday turned into a nightmare nobody saw coming.
153
So El Goh, a 43 -year -old former nursing student at Oikos University, had dropped out of the nursing program a few months earlier
154
because apparently he felt disrespected and isolated by some of the staff and students.
155
Well, he was very unhappy with how things had gone down at the school, but instead of venting by maybe writing an angry Yelp review,
156
Goh decided to take things to the ultimate extreme.
157
Armed with a .45 caliber handgun and a chip on his shoulder big enough to serve as a second weapon,
158
go walked into the school that morning with the worst kind of comeback plan.
159
He walked into the class, lined up the students, and demanded that they say who was Christian, and then, without waiting for a debate,
160
he opened fire, killing seven people and injuring three others.
161
Honestly, if he'd been looking for a way to be the least -liked alumni of all time, he nailed it.
162
Imagine sitting there, thinking you're about to learn about anatomy or pharmacology, pharmacology and suddenly it's like you're in the middle of a bad action movie.
163
Goh then moved around the school taking aim at anyone who dared to cross his path.
164
The students were ducking, hiding, and probably wondering why they hadn't just skipped class that day.
165
Now here's where
166
Go really went full amateur hour.
167
After wreaking havoc, he tried to make a getaway in a victim's car.
168
He didn't exactly have a well -thought -out exit plan.
169
Instead of heading for a border or something dramatic, he went to, wait for it, a grocery store.
170
Yep, he ended his grand escape at a Safeway as if he was about to shop for dinner after committing mass murder.
171
Go seemed to be playing a real -life game of Grand Theft Auto but without any skill or planning.
172
Imagine the cops' faces when they found him wandering around a grocery store.
173
Sure enough, he was arrested without a fight and was hit with multiple murder and attempted murder charges, as you'd expect.
174
Initially, he was found unfit to stand trial due to mental health issues, but after a stint in a psychiatric hospital,
175
he was declared competent, and in 2017, he pleaded no contest.
176
He got a life sentence without the possibility of parole, which is the justice system's way of saying, you're done, buddy.
177
West Nickel Mines Amish School, BART Township, Pennsylvania, October 2nd, 2006.
178
Just picture a tiny one -room schoolhouse nestled in the peaceful Amish countryside of Pennsylvania.
179
This is the kind of place where high -tech means you have a chalkboard and loud means a cow just wandered by.
180
It's literally the last place you'd expect violence, but on that day, violence showed up uninvited.
181
It all started when a 32 -year -old truck driver called Charles Carl Roberts IV,
182
who had a lot of unresolved anger and guilt, finally lost it.
183
Now, the crazy part of this is that Charles wasn't even Amish, and by all appearances, was just another guy from the area.
184
In fact, he was a married man with kids.
185
Unfortunately, Charles also had a lot of demons chasing him, and had always loved the idea of hurting little girls.
186
Charles arrived at the West Nickel Mines Amish School around 10 .30 a .m and walked in with a gun,
187
a bag full of ammunition, and a twisted plan.
188
First of all, he ordered the male students, the teacher, and some adults to leave, leaving behind only the female students,
189
10 girls ranging in age from 6 to 13.
190
Right there, you can tell that this guy clearly had taken a wrong turn on the road of life.
191
As if things weren't bad enough, Roberts barricaded the doors and even brought along lumber to seal himself inside.
192
It was like a deranged version of a do -it -yourself home project gone horribly wrong.
193
Instead of building a birdhouse or a garden shed, he turned the schoolhouse into a makeshift prison.
194
Tragically, after holding the girls hostage and making a series of increasingly disturbing threats, Robert started shooting.
195
By the time he turned the gun on himself, he had killed five girls and wounded five others.
196
It was an act of incomprehensible cruelty made worse by the innocence of the young lives he targeted.
197
Just think, one moment these girls were doing their schoolwork, probably dreaming about lunch or recess, and then everything turned into a nightmare.
198
You know, heroes with capes swooping in.
199
Just the raw horror of a man who had completely lost his way.
200
Santa Fe High School, Santa Fe, Texas, May 18th, 2018.
201
You see, Santa Fe is a small town,
202
the kind of place where everyone knows each other's business and where people go to the same couple of diners.
203
Or high school on a Friday morning was probably filled with sleepy teenagers, coffee -chugging teachers, and the buzz of weekend plans.
204
So by the time school started at Santa Fe High, the day was already leaning into that lazy Friday vibe.
205
But inside one of those classrooms, a storm was brewing, and no one knew just how close it was to breaking.
206
Then we have Dimitrios Pagortzis, a 17 -year -old junior who up until that morning was just another kid in the hall.
207
Maybe he blended it in so well that you wouldn't have given him a second look.
208
Instead of grabbing books and binders, Bogortzies armed himself with a shotgun and a .38 revolver
209
and stepped onto campus that fateful Friday morning not to take a pop quiz, but to unleash a nightmare.
210
If his goal was to be remembered, he succeeded, but for all the wrong reasons.
211
At around 7 .30 a .m., Bogortzies walked into his art class and opened fire on his classmates and teachers, targeting them with a terrifying calmness.
212
He moved through the room leaving chaos and heartbreak in his wake
213
and by the end of it he had successfully taken the lives of 10 people, 8 students and 2 teachers and injured 13 others.
214
It all happened so fast that most students didn't even have time to react.
215
Some hid in closets, others under desks and everyone was trying to make sense of the nightmare unfolding around them.
216
After his rampage, Bogortzies didn't try to make a grand escape.
217
Instead, he surrendered to the police without a fight.
218
He simply gave himself up like he was ready for it to be over as quickly as it had started.
219
There was no dramatic final stand, no high -speed chase, just a quiet end to a morning of unimaginable horror.
220
Bogorsi was charged with capital murder and aggravated assault, facing the possibility of life in prison.
221
But because of his age, he wasn't eligible for the death penalty.
222
His trial has been delayed multiple times due to mental health evaluations, leaving the community and the victim's families without closure.
223
It's like watching a bad movie where the villain doesn't even face the music at the end.
224
For now, Bogortzies is in a mental health facility, a place far removed from the storm he created, and he remains there awaiting trial.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
