nothing brightens your day quite like
reviewing all the awful things that
happened over the past year welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten horrible
things about 2016 Lane standing in ankle
deep water when the five to seven foot
alligator emerged and attacked him for
this list we’re looking at the events
milestones and tragedies that went into
making 2016 the worst year in recent
memory with temperatures dropping and
fears of more quakes rising it’s going
to be a long intense winter number-10
brexit what on earth is going to happen
to Britain this catchy port motto refers
to the United Kingdom’s decision to
leave the European Union a decision
reached in the summer of 2016 a
referendum was held to determine whether
or not to remain within the EU with 52%
of citizens voting in favor of a brexit
I think it’s a good thing the countries
of America a chance of summits on to
face see what we do when it’s all about
everyone else’s hell hardly a black and
white decision
the UK’s withdrawal will take years to
finalize with many estimating that a
full withdrawal won’t occur until March
of 2019 the British people have voted to
leave the European Union and their will
must be respected with the British Pound
already taking a serious hit many
pundits have started to express concern
over the future of the United Kingdom
with uncertainty arising around the
future of European trade policy as well
as the place of the UK and the EU in the
eyes of the world the will of the
British people is an instruction that
must be delivered number 9 earthquakes
in Italy on August 24 2016 a 6.2
magnitude earthquake rocked central
Italy in what was one of the worst
natural disasters of the year the
massive quake killed 299 people and left
4,500 others without homes while the
epicenter of this catastrophe was near
the small municipality of Okuma Lee
aftershocks were felt as far off as Rome
Florence and Bologna
hundreds of miles away controversy
surrounding the disaster quickly emerged
as inspections of various collapsed
buildings determined they had not been
built in accordance with the
anti-seismic law of 1974 and as if one
earthquake wasn’t bad enough another
series of quakes shook central Italy in
October of that same year all measuring
higher than five and a half on the
Richter scale and rendering 100,000
people homeless number eight the Fort
McMurray wildfire as the flames began to
spread across northern Alberta few could
have predicted the destruction they
would eventually caused beginning on the
evening of May 1st 2016 a state of
emergency was issued for the areas
around Fort McMurray an urban service
area known for its oil production within
days the wild fire had spread across
more than two hundred and ten thousand
acres forcing thousands to evacuate
their homes
Lauren keep us safe get us out of Fort
McMurray in one piece the fire was
finally declared under control on July
5th 65 days after the first warnings
were issued the most expensive disaster
in Canadian history with damage
estimates coming close to three point
five eight billion dollars it remains a
miracle that there were no direct
fatalities connected to the blaze so my
biggest concern right now is really
figuring out what we do next number
seven the Orlando pulse nightclub
shooting oh my god they’re all shooting
back in her an innocent night out turned
deadly when 29 year old Omar Mateen
murdered 49 people and injured 53 others
at a gay nightclub in Orlando Florida On
June 12 2016 the situation ended after
local police breached the interior of
the club three hours after the shooting
began killing Mateen and rescuing
several hostages though Mateen pledged
allegiance to ISIL in a 911 this
incident is considered both a terrorist
attack and a hate crime carrying the
infamous distinction of being the worst
attack on American soil since 9/11 and
the deadliest mass shooting perpetrated
by a single person in US history there
are more than a list of names
there are people who loved and were
loved there are people with families and
friends and dreams in November 2016 the
City of Orlando revealed their intention
to purchase the club for 2.25 million
dollars with plans to turn it into a
memorial number six
Zika not even mosquitoes could be
trusted in 2016 the antagonists behind
the 2015-16 Zika outbreak in the
Americas mosquitoes spread disease by
biting the exposed skin of unsuspecting
individuals while those infected with
Zika will often have mild to no symptoms
it mustn’t be underestimated
pregnant women who contract the disease
can pass it to their children causing
serious birth defects while Zika
vaccines were finally being tested on
humans by the end of 2016 none had yet
been confirmed as an effective
prevention method so avoiding mosquito
bites is still the best way to avoid
infection however if you think you’re
safe because you live in a mosquito free
environment beware the Zika virus can be
passed from one person to another
through unprotected sex so I think you
have to to worry but keep calm and just
try to to live with it number five
police involved shootings of civilians
patek died the bag said that Kalighat
suit so 2016 was yet another year in
which hundreds of civilians primarily in
the US were shot and killed by police
officers he turns around faced officers
with his hands up and the officer
continues to shoot him as he goes down
to the ground while these types of
incidents have occurred for decades the
fatal police shootings of Michael Brown
and John Crawford the third in 2014
sparked outrage protests riots and the
black lives matter movement the world
watched as video footage of Alton
sterling and falando Castillo’s
police-involved deaths in July 2016 went
viral for example as debates on how to
properly address the issue continue
uncertain feelings towards local law
enforcement increase suggestions on how
to tackle the issue of included
mandating officers to wear body cameras
however this
has not prevented almost 900 people from
being killed in 2016 according to the
Washington Post number for Isis Isis
which stands for the Islamic State of
Iraq and Syria is a terrorist
organization responsible for war crimes
ethnic cleansing and various terror
attacks across the globe the main goal
of the group is to form a Sunni Islamic
state one led by a supreme leader while
the group has been around since 1999
it’s their actions in recent years that
have caused panic outrage and fear in
the hearts and minds of people the world
over in 2016 alone Isis has been
responsible for thousands of deaths from
bombings in Istanbul Brussels nice and
Kabul to a knife attack in a Minnesota
mall and many more incidents this
organization perpetrated crimes in
dozens of countries in 2016
first one they said with a suicide car
bomb ya’know
exploded on the vehicles that are just
behind us there are a number of soldiers
just running in the street number three
the European migrant crisis continues
the Italian government said that without
more help from the EU it could no longer
afford to fund it between January 2015
and March 2016 over 1 million people
journeyed across the Mediterranean Sea
from countries like Syria Iraq and
Afghanistan in order to escape the
various Wars and persecutions occurring
there while many have crossed the sea
with relative safety others have not
been so lucky in 2015 almost 4000 people
died while attempting the trip the
majority of the migrants hail from Syria
with many seeking asylum from their
countries Civil War one that’s already
claimed the lives of approximately
400,000 people according to the United
Nations and Arab League envoy to Syria
many European countries like Germany
have graciously opened their borders to
the incoming refugees but as their
citizens openly criticized the –use
management of the situation the crisis
continues many of the German people are
afraid what will happen with us
Germany number two the u.s. presidential
election campaign I am officially
running for president of the United
States if you feel like you’ve been
watching coverage of this presidential
election for years you wouldn’t exactly
be wrong Ted Cruz announced his
candidacy for the Republican Party
nomination on March 23rd 2015 a whopping
596 days before Election Day today I am
announcing that I’m running for
president of the United States the race
to become the 45th commander-in-chief
had many wondering when and if it would
ever end
with the eventual battle between Donald
Trump and Hillary Clinton becoming a
heated one littered with bizarre moments
from both parties with one candidate
under investigation by the FBI and the
other making controversial comments that
attracted massive media attention I
would bring back waterboarding and I’d
bring back a hell of a lot worse than
waterboarding the protests riots and
other incidents that ultimately followed
Trump’s election on November 8th
highlighted how divided the United
States really are before we unveil our
number one pick
here are some dishonorable mentions
there’s no question it was a lenient
sentence he was facing up to 14 years
prosecutors asked for six years he had
asked for four months the judge gave him
six months police used pepper spray and
rubber bullets to disperse them my
youngest were telling mom it’s yellow it
is a filmy gross foamy thing and it
would smell like open sewer but we were
being told we’re still getting used to
the new system it’s safe it’s okay
number one all the celebrity deaths
with each passing year the world bids
farewell to many of its most beloved
celebrities yet in 2016 the list of
those lost carries a weight that feels
somewhat disproportionate in relation to
other years beginning with the passing
of iconic glam rocker David Bowie in
January the year has at times felt like
one never-ending funeral with other
well-known celebrities like Alan Rickman
Muhammad Ali and prints passing away in
the ensuing months do you’ll ever be
some like 22 year old singer christina
Grimmie died under tragic circumstances
[Music]
while others like Leonard Cohen passed
away peacefully at the age of 82
ah
what’s more we also lost several
influential journalists and politicians
in 2016
making the year that much tougher to
face it’s been a very bumpy and
satisfying road that’s exactly right
many of the well-known faces lost in
2016 were giants in their field and they
will not soon be forgotten
I’d like to see ya
your faith was strong but you needed
proof before all gonna be so happy

gonna cry because grown-ups are silly
