Just imagine one day you're relaxing watching some tv
then all of a sudden a creepy alarm overrides the programming a warning message then shows
up on screen this could alert you of a missile heading right for you or maybe that a chemical
spillage has occurred and you need to shelter in place and in some cases even a zombie apocalypse
it sounds like something straight from a movie scene but this has happened many times in real
life and it was caught on camera today we'll look at the scariest emergency alerts ever seen on tv
missile warning in 2018 people in hawaii thought their time was up that's because
everyone in hawaii got an emergency alert on their phone this alert read emergency alert ballistic
missile threat inbound to hawaii seek immediate shelter this is not a drill many people braced
for the worst and assumed that they would go up in smithereens this was at the time where there
was lots of tension with the usa and north korea and many believed north korea had sent a missile
to hawaii the president who was at mar-a-lago was alerted but it was later found out this was
a false alarm there were two buttons a drill and a non-drill button they were trying to run a simple
test but they clicked the not a test button these warnings also took over hawaiian's tvs
the warning said a missile may strike land in minutes the u.s pacific command has detected a
missile threat to hawaii a missile may impact on land or sea within minutes this is not a drill it
said if you're inside stay inside and if you're outside seek immediate shelter in a building
if you are indoors stay indoors if you are outdoors seek immediate shelter in a building
i can barely imagine how i would react if i thought a missile was heading straight for me
many hawaiians recorded goodbye messages to their family as they thought it was their final minutes
pull safely to the side of the road and seek shelter in a building or lay on the floor
if this happens for real now many people will likely think it's a mistake meaning that if a
missile does ever hit the us many lives may be lost as they could think it's simply a mistake
zombie warning imagine if you were watching tv one day and the broadcast was interrupted a warning
about a zombie apocalypse was then played what would you think and what would he do these were
the questions the people of montana were asking in 2013. the warning interrupted a pancake maker
commercial
the emergency alert system warned of a zombie
in your area apocalypse reported that the bodies of the dead are rising from their graves and
attacking the living follow the messages on screen that will be updated as information
becomes available the eerie beeping noises and creepy voice were played over the pancake
commercial with the actors looking all happy and in my view this made it even more creepy
do not attempt to approach or apprehend these bodies as they are considered extremely dangerous
i repeat they said that the bodies of the deceased were rising from their graves and harming the
living they also told people not to go anywhere near them as they were incredibly dangerous
later it was found that this warning was also played in other areas for example
in michigan follow the messages on screen that will be updated as information becomes available
do not attempt to approach or apprehend these bodies they are considered extremely dangerous
some people actually did believe this and thought a real life zombie apocalypse was
occurring but obviously that was not the case and this was all a big hoax it was actually the
work of hackers infiltrating the system it's a good thing this wasn't broadcast on halloween
otherwise gullible people may have tried to defend themselves against people they thought
were zombies some believed this could actually be a real test that the us government were trying out
they believed maybe they were trying to see how americans would respond to a zombie apocalypse
after all the us army does actually have a plan in case of a zombie apocalypse it sounds crazy but
this is an official document known as conplan888 train warning this one is seriously creepy
that's because it predicted an accident which would happen the following day in 2016 people
in new jersey were watching tv that's when a fema emergency alert overrided their broadcasts
the warning said civil authorities have issued a hazardous materials warning
it then said would you could you on a train
that last part left everyone totally baffled it seemed to make no sense at all but the
scarier thing is what happened the next day in new jersey a new jersey transit train went
off the tracks and crashed this injured many people including one who sadly did not make it
because of the timing here many believed that the emergency message the day before was a warning
some also said that whoever broadcast this had insider knowledge it's not known whether this was
really fema or a hacker as far as i know there were no hazardous material warnings on that day
so maybe this was a virtuous hacker trying to warn us of what may happen the next day
the only question is how on earth did they know this train would derail would you could
you on a train is a quote from a dr zeus book named green eggs and ham so maybe further clues
about this can be found in that book but as far as we know right now it's totally unsolved
amber arthur if you don't know what an amber alert is it's basically a warning saying that
a kid has gone missing in the area these alerts are broadcast on phones and also on highway signs
but sometimes they're also played on tv for example during this arthur episode
in 1996. most of these reports describe the kid and their last known whereabouts
has been declared the amber alert was broadcast in fort wayne indiana the creepy thing is this was
broadcast on an episode of arthur where they were being chased and hunted down female 34
brown eyes and was last seen wearing a black nightgown the warning itself is very airy and
creepy but the fact that it's juxtaposed with this episode of arthur makes it even more scary
shelter in place shelter and place warnings are used when a chemical
biological or radio contamination occurs for example if a nuclear power plant near
you had a meltdown or if there was a chemical or bio weapon used against the united states
these shelter and place warnings are played whether it's done intentionally or by accident
if this is ever played then you should find a room with no windows and take
shelter well in 2014 a shelter-in-place warning was broadcast on many noaa systems
the pennsylvania state police are asking all residents of merit and price down ships in monroe
county to continue to shelter in place these are weather and atmospheric observatory systems
the warning message they played is very scary please do not go outdoors and remain away from
windows or openings to the outside please stay tuned to media outlets for further information
but if you live near a chemical or nuclear plant perhaps you've heard one of these before battle of
los angeles warning the battle of los angeles is also known as the 1992 los angeles riots
this consumed the entire city and went on from april 29th to may the 4th this was after a trial
acquitted four lapd police officers it was said that they'd used excessive force on rodney king
on the second day of the riots the emergency broadcast system was used for riots for
the first time ever the alert released a loud tone and interrupted the programming
it then told everyone to stay inside and also warned anyone about going outside to the riots
it also told everyone to stay under curfew and not to go outside additionally the unincorporated
community of east los angeles as well as the entire city of los angeles continues to be
included by the end of the battle of los angeles 63 people had passed on there were more than 2 300
injured people and more than 12 000 people were arrested fema test each year fema transmits an
emergency broadcast test across the entire nation but in 2016 the message was rather
creepy at first a graphic accompanied with beeping comes on the screen and says this is only a test
but then a mysterious voice interrupts the message and how they are working hard to
keep it secret so that nobody will know they have this so that nobody will try to get in
and the moment climate change renders the earth uninhabitable i'm telling you folks
you couple this with this guy elon musk i know he's a hero to people
but do you realize not how many of these clowns think stephen hawking is one of them the only hope
that's civilization live traffic at breaking news the semi is on its side
the voice talks about climate change and the group of people keeping something secret the voice then
seems to say something about the world being uninhabitable and even mentions elon musk he's
likely talking about elon musk's plans to get humans to live on mars but what is this voice
some believe this was a signal malfunction while others believed this was a warning of some kind as
of today this is still an unsolved mystery civil emergency message this video shows what would
happen if a civil emergency message was played on your tv these are only used when public safety is
in jeopardy an emergency alert message from the city of belgium the national weather service
in chicago issued a tornado watch 327 that was previously in effect until 10 pm central standard
time this could have caused a massive panic but thankfully it was only played in one small city
eas prank we've already seen what happens when hackers and pranksters take over emergency
alert systems in 2017 many tv watchers in southern california were terrified
that's because an emergency alert broadcast warned of the end of times
the message said the world would end on september 23rd this would be three days after the message
aired the reason why was because some predicted a random planet may collide with earth on that day
but of course we're still here so that did not happen there was also a doomsday message
talking about a human uprising the thing that made this convincing was the message was played
right after the real test this meant many people thought this was coming from an official source
but now it's time to make your voice heard comment below which was the scariest emergency
alert in this video if you want some more amazing videos then check out my second channel but as
