Thank you this recommendation I watched it yesterday and loved it!I've just watched a documentary called The Wonderful White's Of West Virginia. I've literally never seen anything like it. Made by the same people who made Jackass but it's not the same as that but surpasses it for crazy!!
Here's a link to it

Sorry its 1 hour 28 minutes long
I've watched another great documentary today called "You're not splitting up my family!" Again, it's on YouTube. It delves in to the lives of 2 twins (well it's not going to be 3 is it?!) and their life after their Mam was sadly killed. It goes into Social Servicea input and wider family. It's an absolute shocker. I live near where this was filmed and the 2 lads have been in the local paper a few times in their adult life!
Thanks for sharing this. I’d not heard of this documentary before. I watched it yesterday. I wonder where they are now?I've watched another great documentary today called "You're not splitting up my family!" Again, it's on YouTube.

This one....
Yeh exactly, it's like the huge rise in conspiracy theories and anti vaxxers over this time imoI don’t think rationality really comes into play when it comes to cults. Most people aren’t susceptible to cultish behaviour, hence, the majority of people don’t enter or get sucked into one. But the fact is, a minority of people do. Like a minority of people get into pyramid schemes, or falling in love with someone overseas 30 years younger than them and thinking it’s true reciprocated love. I do agree that lockdown would have heightened all of these sorts of ploys massively.
I was just about to say “oh, there’s a really good thread about updates from people from documentaries” but then realised that it was my thread and it’s this one that we’re onThose poor boys. Gran was not the right person to be bringing them up. They should have gone to their auntie much sooner. Wonder how they are now. I read they had a much older brother who was already in Jail during this as well as the big sister.
Not come across this true crime YT'er before. I've subscribed to her channel, but need to be in the right headspace to watch that particular video.I subscribe to Danielle Kirsty on YouTube and the video she shared last week was shocking. There will be a film coming out on Netflix on the 6th July “Girl in the Picture” I’ve never heard of this case before.
Jonny Kennedy has stayed in my mind too.I remember watching "The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off" on Channel 4, and being disturbed at the part where he (Jonny Kennedy) died on the train home from somewhere and they showed his carer taking him home.
I always think of him when I hear that song. I remember the first time I saw that documentary I couldn't drop crying.Jonny Kennedy has stayed in my mind too.
This song always makes me smile and think of him.
This is a bit similar to a documentary I still watch to this day if I feel I need a bit of inspiration to push through something difficult that's happening in my own life as I absolutely adored her, BBC three Love on the transplant list the story of Kirstie Tancock born with CF the story was the build up to her wedding when her lungs were failing and she was on constant oxygen and in a wheelchair as walking took to much out of her, she was determined to live despite being on end of life care then after her wedding to Stu she gets the news that some donor lungs had been found, it then charts her transplant recovery and by the end she's well, running around the fields with her dog and able to live as normal young woman.I’ll always remember Alex - A life fast forward. A BBC documentary from 2011. A young lad who was diagnosed with bone cancer as a teenager who at 21 wants to live his life to the full as he knows he doesn’t have much time left. He falls in love with a lovely girl and it’s uplifting and utterly heartbreaking at the same time. In fact I just saw the bone cancer research trust have it on their Facebook so I might go watch it and have a massive cry.
It’s really humbling and inspiring to see how much some people go through in their lives and how much of an impact they make isn’t it?This is a bit similar to a documentary I still watch to this day if I feel I need a bit of inspiration to push through something difficult that's happening in my own life as I absolutely adored her, BBC three Love on the transplant list the story of Kirstie Tancock born with CF the story was the build up to her wedding when her lungs were failing and she was on constant oxygen and in a wheelchair as walking took to much out of her, she was determined to live despite being on end of life care then after her wedding to Stu she gets the news that some donor lungs had been found, it then charts her transplant recovery and by the end she's well, running around the fields with her dog and able to live as normal young woman.
After the doc aired I started to follow her on Instagram she was doing great for years then she started getting signs of rejection, she stayed so strong but knew the worst was happening then out of nowhere doctors said it was a long shot but she could try for a second transplant which I think is very rare and it happend for her she became X2 lung transplant survivor
Again all was well for Kirstie she was doing pole fitness teaching and living to the full with her husband, dog and family and then the second set of lungs began to slowly fail, this time there was no more the specialist could do but she just kept living to the full. When it was announced she had died I was heartbroken i can't explain how someone I never met could be so inspiring but she just did and still does as a grainy version of the doc is still there on YouTube and I regularly give it watch or think what would Kirstie do if I'm struggling with life
My life is perfect right now! To say that is almost harder than saying the opposite because of what I could do if I survive but how many people can say that on their death bed. I am a lucky man!
