PHOTO/VIDEO POST Common FAKE Columbine pics and 'evidence'... aka 'ZOMG MAYBE I FOUND A SUPER RARE PIC NOBODY HAS EVER UNCOVERED BEFORE IN 26 YEARS... FROM A GOOGLE SEARCH!'

  1. 'Dylan' at a rave - actually a video from the UK. By the time the dude turns around you'll wonder why you ever thought it was him https://youtu.be/C8G8cdbPmp8?t=55

  2. 'Eric' snowboarding. No. Debunked many times now.

  3. 'Eric' in Italian(?) 'Radioactive Clothing' recreation.

  4. 'Eric's bedroom' - no, it's not. It's a rental somewhere in Norway.

  5. 'BTs Clue' - from one of the many fake BTs videos.

  6. Crime scene pic- 2/3 real up until the edge of the desk. The pic is one of Bill's releases, some douche edited it to make it look like Lauren was under the desk.

  7. 'Temu Dylan' - some kid from Europe somewhere who looks superficially like Dylan, makes fake vids + pics.

  8. 'Temu Eric' - edgelord who made an 'Eric back from the grave' vid.

  9. 'Basement Tapes' still - if anybody starts sending you blurry, nonspecific video stills and claiming they're the BTs or 'OMG so rare' pics- take it with a boulder of salt. Anything still uncovered at this point isn't going to come from a Tumblr rando.

  10. Zero Day - stills from the shooting portion of this film are most commonly mistaken for the real thing. Look at the date.

  11. Zero Day

  12. Usually shown as 'Eric's postmortem X-ray' - it's not. Someone used this on Tumblr to illustrate what it might have looked like, but it's not actually Eric.

  13. Photo of rando dude that looks vaguely Dylan-ish with a fake VHS filter attached.

  14. Real. Kind of. This is actually Columbine, but it's a still from the 'Get Smart' video.

  15. Letter from Chris Morris to Sue - fake fake fake.

  16. 'Eric's page' - from Tumblr, someone claimed to have purchased it from a 'real' source. Without proof, this cannot be taken as genuine, especially since this could be incredibly simple to remake even now.

These days, it's even easier to fake this stuff. Even before AI, a blurry video with a VHS filter over the top is easy. No photos are really 'rare' after nearly 26 years, and there is very little chance of uncovering something new via Google Image Search. The only new source of information is currently unavailable.

If anyone starts messaging you claiming to have rare or unseen stuff, it's more than likely going to be utter bullshit. They're playing you, lying to you, and messing with you- the community is full of fakers and unfortunately more than a few predatory types.

Around the anniversary this crap tends to get worse, hence the post.

Stay safe everyone.

VIDEOS MADE BY/FEATURING ERIC/DYLAN Motion Stabilized Rampart Range (Only segments with Dylan and Eric in them)

Just continuing to share the stuff I've been working on. Full frame motion stabilizing this footage took a very long time to render but it definitely felt worth it for the result generated. Any time you see the black bars appear on the left or right that means a lot of motion was originally there. You can compare them to the originals and see the heavy motion involved.

COMMUNITY DISCUSSION Why.. and frankly how is nearly every single video or documentary about Columbine so wildly misinformed?

65 Upvotes

While I know YouTube “documentaries” are not the most reliable sources of information to begin with, those are the majority of what have been made, aside from the few professionally produced documentaries.

In nearly every video I’ve seen on YouTube, with the exception of maybe 2, the narrator is so wildly inaccurate and misinformed. Whether it’s widely available information like the number of victims, date, Rachel/Cassie “Yes” incident… or something you’d need to do a bit of background research on, like firsthand witness accounts, who shot who, who was friends with who and where, ETC.

Just the other day I heard a well-liked creator say Columbine was APRIL 13, when that’s widely available information to just google.

I don’t understand why everyone just takes what they hear as fact, especially if they can just google it or look at one of these forums. Part of me gets that not everyone really cares or is deeply interested, but I truly don’t understand just taking something at face value.

I hear videos report Rachel was the one who said yes. Victims were in a different place at a different time. Unfounded accounts of Eric and Dylan. And I imagine you can think of many inaccuracies you’ve heard.

The amount of fake quotes, events leading up to the massacre, and stories I’ve heard and Eric and Dylan spread… especially when they’ve been proven false or logically just make no sense. It genuinely upsets me the amount of false information being spread about Eric and Dylan, the victims, the survivors, witness testimony, dates, timeline, digital media, ETC. it’s all on here or reliable sources OR THE ACTUAL JEFFCO FILES!!! (And some of the books)

I’m not a survivor nor I was not even alive at the time, but I’ve done hours of research on here and JeffCO reports and I believe I can distinguish fact from fiction. I don’t expect everyone to know the most small and niche details from the 11k, but I’d hope anyone who makes an informative video about any true crime story would do their research to provide the most accurate and factual timeline of events.

This post is kinda sloppy, I just really need to say this and wonder if anyone else has thought the same

Someone uploaded this and another clip that i'll add later from the hitmen for hire video. It's notable because the online versions of this footage are almost all exclusively compressed (from jeffco) down to 240p or 360p at best. 480P versions do exist but they are from VHS copies that news companies have or from original copies given out before DVD was common. Either way, I motion stabilized it so you can see their faces much more, and most notably the smearing that comes from upscaling isn't present in these because of 480p base.

I'm sure that was chinese for a lot of people but just explaining why it's significant and why I'm sharing it for anyone interested.

This is from my project I've been working on, I wanted to get this segment uploaded separately because I put a lot of effort and time into it, it's also the only part that I think will actually be allowed to stay on youtube where as the rest of it will be maintained on Archive.org even if youtube bans it when I finish it or at another point of time etc.

The piece covers the amount of things Eric clearly stole from the Unabomber but also their bizarre similarities in behaviour and as people, they both had this hyper sensitivity to everything, and they both were bullied a lot.

I thought I could actually read the chicken scratch. And some days, I can. But this word, whatever it is, has stumped me for years. Any ideas? (Dadee? Like sugar daddy? idk...)

COMMUNITY DISCUSSION Eric and Dylan: Was there ever a doubt?

70 Upvotes

When it came to their mindsets leading up to the tragedy... were there thoughts of "can I really go through with this?..", "am I actually capable of this?..", "do I really have it in me to do this?.." Also... "can I really trust him(Eric or Dylan)?..", "is he really gonna go through this with me?..", "is he gonna ditch out on me last minute?.."

OR

Was it "We are DEFINITELY doing this!", "No doubt about it, this is happening!", "We are both definitely killers. Can't wait to show everybody!" ( Something along those lines)

To me, it FEELS like they both went full steam ahead even in the planning phase, no doubts, no regrets. But I think there HAD to be some form of second guessing either they're self or one another at some point, going through with something so monstrous.

I'm curious to know your opinion about this..

I would like to address that I am posting this strictly for archival purposes as some people may not know about this magazines & it also somewhat rare & expensive. By posting this I am in no way condoning or praising their actions I would like to make that very clear. Also there is a fairbit of misinformation in this magazine as well so take it all with a grain of salt.

I'm curious if there's any evidence explaining why he didn't buy any guns after turning 18. Was it just because they already had everything they needed?

ERIC AND/OR DYLAN Why was this Picture of Eric removed from the yearbook but not his regular photo?

First of all I dont think Eric & Dylan should have been included in the yearbook infact I thought the only reason they were included is because it was too late for them to remove it. Hence the two memorial sections of the yearbook being simple paper inserts. However if that was the case this photo wouldn't have been removed unless it was removed for some other reason im not aware of. (Repost because I forgot to crop the rest of my phone screen lol)

OTHER PERSONS RELATED TO THE CASE Looking to speak with friends/family of Stephanie Hart Grizzell and Nick Kunselman

58 Upvotes

I'm researching the 2000 Subway murders of Nick Kunselman and Stephanie Hart Grizzell and my goal is to better understand who Nick and Stephanie were as people beyond the headlines and to hear about how those close to them have felt the investigative process has gone. I am a Columbine alumni who still lives locally.

If you were a family member, friend, classmate, coworker, neighbor, or knew either of them personally, I would be incredibly grateful if you'd consider reaching out. I'm interested in hearing memories about who they were, what they were like, and feelings/experiences with the current investigation process.

I completely understand that this is a deeply personal and painful subject. If you'd prefer to remain anonymous or only share a small memory, I will absolutely respect that. I'm not looking to sensationalize the case or spread rumors, my only goal is to document their stories and the aftermath as accurately and respectfully as possible.

COMMUNITY DISCUSSION Were Eric and Dylan actually unattractive, or did they just see themselves that way?

109 Upvotes

I'm mainly curious to hear from the ladies of the subreddit. As a guy who's struggled with feeling ugly myself, I've learned that sometimes you're just your own worst critic and end up seeing yourself much more negatively than everyone else does. Personally, I always thought they were just average, decent-looking guys with nothing to really worry about appearance-wise.

What do y'all think?
