Warrior Studios so was randy Rhoads

It wasn't an accident. The driver was drunk.

KnightWatcher11 It was Randys choice to get on that plane. If a coked up bus driver offerd me a ride on a plane i would decline

Skynyrd too

And he was so fucking good....

Yes :'(

and cliffs dead to be honest is sad that he die such a young age

And when the bus got dropped again on him after they tried lifting it. That's fucking sad.

Yeah but James and Cliff were the two dopest ones in the band.

That is extremely sad...

Why not Me earlier

@@lemmykilmister5293 Cliff was better

Yeah and they took Randy rhodes also😂 RIP to those legends

thrash metal rock gods arent worthy of cliff

cliff was a living legend

Cliffs some how knew and saved Kirk

@@RVNT9OE theyre looking at it from a technicall point of view calm your tits

@@easilyentertained1975 r/woooooosh

@@crunked6674 no i get the joke so more like r/911

@@easilyentertained1975 Haha! Yeah

Didn't realize how young that was for such an iconic bass player in my teens.It hits me now as I approach 30

I love how this black metal guy is posting on a Metallica video.

Your not a real metalhead

@@nigel7779 any other thing to cry about?

Daemon another one

yep they were originally designed on the tarot cards

Yep ♠️ 🙁

Yep i had family member that got to meet Cliff before he died

Yes a Aces of spades I Dont want to live forever

He loved Motörhead, that's the card

he died years ago get over it

+Alek0625 Not the time to have a sense of humour about something that happened over 30 years ago? Get over yourself.

ScoopMeisterGeneral not trying to start anything but it's kinda rude to make jokes about someone who's died but I get that it was 30 years ago

Hal _ What would sadness and pity do for someone who died 30 years ago? Would he be revived if we were sad and started crying over his death? Get over it.

Moustache Man not the time right now

He is in Hell now, that's even more tragic than the accident itself. Life here on earth is short, but eternity in Hell is endless.

@@Mark_Tschetter wat

@@Mark_Tschetter dick

@@Mark_Tschetter who hurt you kid

@@Mark_Tschetter shut up

I am crying

Absolutely

Oh James Hetfield😟😟😟😟😟

im fucking crying rn

He probably would’ve drunkenly shot him

Dave would've killed the bus the driver.

dave would’ve fucking mauled the bus driver

Flint and Steel he would have a 100% killed him

Dave would’ve strangled the bus driver

i did cry

Or on purpose....

@@bobelliott5783 tell me how and why he would've specifically killed only cliff?

@@bobelliott5783 STUPID DUMBASS HOW THE HELL WOULD HE OF DONE IT IT WAS BLACK ICE!!!

i think i would've killed myself

@@devenbackes81 there wasn't any black ice...he was drunk, it just couldn't be proven at that time, but the band said he was

Zoe Fry I don't think so. We have to kill his bass guitar first and then he can jam.

No, that's not at all what I'm assuming. I'm just saying that wherever Cliff is, he's in a better place. I'm sorry if that's what my comment sounded like. I was just trying to pay respects.

DrPengin oh, ok. I'm sorry about that ^_^"

Zoe Fry 🤘🏻

Kentucky Fried Children the only thing you can play on bass is the open e fucking idiot where ever cliff is he is rocking and head banging

guilt for what? he give way to Cliff on that bus bank, how could you say that.

@@Bfair123 It's survivor's guilt dude, no matter what the circumstances are, all you can keep thinking is "it should have been me, I should have died, not him."

Blazedoes Clash Royale it could be, but if you think about it. When Kirk had picked the card and stayed in his bed maybe things would have been different.

Things would have been different but that’s the theory, that he would have slept where Cliff slept

No one knowing

butterfly effect. seeing as they dont know why the driver fucked up in the first place any detail you change could change the entire result thats important to keep in mind because you just know Kirk was asking himself the same thing,if he won maybe he would die,maybe no one,maybe everyone but him it doesnt matter. still its so creepy ,and Cliff drew the ace of spades ,foreshadowing af

Metallica wouldn't be where they are today without kirk.

that time nobody thanked the bus driver

"where is this black ice, i dont see any black ice" -james hetfield 1986

@@robertnagy3942... Stfu lol

let alone he was in his underwear. He didn't have good intentions. When a dude is walking down the streets in his underwear when it is 10 below looking for the dude, you better believe he means business.

@@kipperferguson looking for what dude? He was looking for black ice.

I can only imagine the pain their balls went through, trying to shrivel up because they were so cold from being in their underwear while it was 10 below lol

I'm not a religious man but after Alexi Laiho died I was just hoping that all the musicians in metal we lost were there to welcome him with open arms and Cliff being one of them

hermanessences hahah "where is this black guy? i don't see any black guys!"

Thank you. You just made me crack up during a super depressing video

That's the whole point of black ice.. You can't see it... Maybe the driver is lying n you know it's there by stepping on it but it's hard to actually see... But either way doesn't change the fact of what happened

Phike black guys*

@@hauntedbylight 😂

peace

That's the most beautiful and poetic statement I have ever heard in memory of Cliff...( love this )

This is beautiful❤❤

Bass of spades

He loved that boy Lemmy

There is something unreal in all of this

@@jetdaniels1039 i agree

​@@jetdaniels1039shits not a coincidence

It doesnt matter......

Situations exist, and fear of being in a tumbling bus in the dark after being woken up suddenly what do you think you think he was just being stupid and making a pun ?

So grim so true so real apathy breaking my foot bones tresspasing pulling my own strings justice is not done halls of justice painted red mother Metallica wine bottle revealing drink up shoot in let let the happy endings begin no more dark sets no submission fade from black to white on bolts again cliff returning PS little puppet says Metallica rules

I was literally scared to check the comment section

Haha

Maybe kirk would react different to the crash, and not die, many variables involved.

Seems like he left his window open while he was sleeping

Ethan Jantke well they kinda offed Cliff

Fuuuuck 😭😭😭

boo hoo ,stop being so sensitive

Ethan Jantke Turns out they fell onto a Cliff.

Ghost Rider bruh

Same

ok we don't need any fan fictions on the Kurt Cobain with overly long hair and legendary bass skills. So stop, before it's too late.

@@kipperferguson Wut

Yea I agree

Try not to let it get to you to much man he is in a better place now probably jamming with van halen and dimebag try not to worry about death to much it can really scare you it scared me but just like a nice life man

The bassist of Led Zeppelin basically inspired this guy so actually the second best bassist he is awesome though.

Steve Harris is really good too

@@kipperferguson dude. Cliff is the #1 bassist of all time imo. At the very minimum the king of metal bass.

@@evanranger6497 Definitely not of all time, but he's at least in the top 5 of metal, along with Geezer Butler, Steve Harris, Lemmy

Ashton Fox don't forget Chuck Schuldiner.

It's hard to think about what life as a metallica fan or member would be like if that happened. We get the best bassist on earth back, but we lose one of the best guitarists

A L E X I A They all where

Modz holy shit

Modz well that’s very coincidental

That’s just a superstition

Modz well given what happened the idea doesn't seem far fetched.

You're really telling me a piece of paper can determine if someone lives

Pisses me off the driver claimed he had fully rested during the day. Cowardly lies.

@@xMorbidArtx even “fully rested” you can get drowsy driving long boring road. Especially just before the sun rises for whatever reason. And as far as the bus bouncing I see no reason why there couldn’t have been a spot of ice that made the bus skid THEN skip after getting of the patch. Or even skipping once the rear wheels slid of the road perhaps. But still I’d guess the driver was at fault . He could have been stretching or getting a drink or something that distracted him. Or fell asleep. Semi trailers off track where as busses don’t really to my knowledge but if your trailer goes off the road it wants to pull you off and Is quite difficult to get back in the road and one may over do it . Regardless of all that I can’t believe they dropped the bus back on cliff Edit: I misspelled bud as bud twice lol Edit 2: fack

If you only have one shot? Vs. Saving maybe hundreds or thousands of people?

@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 yes, cause on other people, you dont know if it was due to their mistakes in life. In this, it was because it was a fucking accident and not even his fault

So you'd kill Kirk?

@@melissawright1979Kirk wouldn’t be in the same bunk so

How would you do it?

Well it would be nice but would alter the whole timeline of Metallica but yeah still cool tho

kye ! I don't think he meant that

"bassicaly"

Well they've fell on to a cliff not fell off.

The bus went over a cliff.

it’s very unlikely it was most likely a very quick death

Honestly I think the chances of him being alive were slim to none. Getting thrown from a bus onto asphalt likely cracked his skull or worse, then the bus landed on him. Really disheartening to think he was still alive but I really doubt it, so that makes me feel a little better.

C30 Nation i dont think so When the bus first fell on him . It crushed his ribs and spine and his skull

+Krondelo If he was just thrown outside of the bus and the bus never landed on him, I think he would had been alive. He would had a serious injury but I think he still would had been alive. I could see them taking a year break off if that actually did happen. The accident would had still been remembered but not as the sad death thing that happened to Cliff. We are all going to die one day but for Cliff it was way too sad, nobody should die like that in the age of 24. It could had been Kirk but it was Cliff instead.

He could have been alive if he was using a seat belt. Hopefully everyone uses seat belts while riding a bus especially when sleeping.

Bryan Diaz tf

And lemmy jamming with us in heaven rest in peace cliff

And joey jordison

Do you remember where and how you learned about Cliff's death?

Sure was the 31st year since he left. Was such a sad day in music history. I named my first born, Cliff after him. God his missed by so many. Never reached his full talent. Gone way too soon and young. Rest up mate, keep the thunder rolling xxxx

The bus went over a cliff.

MrParkerman6 no shit

But true

I'd feel really guilty actually. Knowing it could have been me instead x
