The video prepared for the day of the end of the world

Throughout history, human beings have invented hundreds of apocalyptic events to imagine the end of their existence, from extraterrestrial invasions to super-volcanoes through world wars and meteorites.

The problem is that we are so used to this kind of predictions in the media, (the 2000 effect, end of the Mayan calendar) or even in the movies (Armageddon, Tomorrow's Day) that we almost forgot that there are events on our horizon of possibilities that could extinguish the human race.

But what if the media really had to announce that the day of the end of world? How would they do it? What would be the last thing they would issue? Recently a video was revealed that CNN had prepared in case there was a disaster that would end the human being.Do you want to know this story? Read on...

The CNN video for the day of the End of the World

As you will see below, the video that CNN had reserved for this occasion does not need emotional words or phrases , he only uses a song to convey this farewell message.It is a music band playing the Christian hymn "Closer, oh God, you", a well-known hymn and that curiously also play the musicians of the Titanic while the ship is sinking.You can see it below:

Why has this video appeared now?

When 34 years ago Ted Turner launched his CNN news channel, he promised not stop broadcasting 24 hours a day and said that the day they would stop broadcasting would be the day that humanity ceased to exist .That is why in CNN they wanted to anticipate this day recording whatit would be the last video that the chain would emit in an alleged catastrophe that would end the world.

Of course as this day did not arrive, the tape was accumulating dust in the stores of the chain.

One day, a teacher who had been working for 20 years in the chain, told his students that this video existed and curiosities of fate, one of these students would end up doing some practices in this chain.

This student was called Michael Ballaban and when he arrived at the CNN he did a small search in the database to check if his existence was real.Effectively he found the tape under the «Do not use until that the end of the world is confirmed » and after a while he decided to make it public.

Would you have imagined something like that for the day of the end of the world? What song would you put to fire humanity if you were in charge of that task? Share your comments with us!
