"Tragic"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I enjoyed this DVD but I'm struggling with the deaths of Princess Diana & Giovanni Versace as being included as two of the “Greatest Tragedies”. They were both very sad events, (and the photo on the cover is of Diana, I admit knowing when I bought it ). However how can you compare the death of one person to the death of thousands in Kobe or Mexico City. Does it mean that if you are a celebrity your death is more tragic--- I guess it depends on your view of what is a great tragedy and how many lives were affected. But it is worth pondering. Other than that it was very informative.

Description

The 80s was a decade that both shook and shocked the globe, that throbbed to the sounds of the boom box, and made the world hold its breath as the Chernobyl nuclear reactor went up in flames. In 80s Greatest Tragedies, witness the era’s worst disasters, from the Space Shuttle Challenger, to the Chernobyl meltdown, to the disaster in Bhopal.

The 90s were also witness to devastating disasters, as well as tragic deaths in high-profile cases. From the shocking death of Princess Diana and the brutal shooting of Italian designer Gianni Versace, to lesser-known tragedies such as the Order of the Solar Temple suicides and the sinking of the MS Estonia in the Baltic Sea, we explore the lost lives, natural disasters, and terrifying acts that forever changed our world.
