The Tragic Death Of Linkin Park's Chester Bennington 

The fact that you bleeped out suicide, goes to show what a puppet you are. Hiding the word itself contributes to the problems that cause it. Congratulations, sell out.

How about you don't edit his face on the front to be all bruised..... total click bait.

@@colterhansen8304 they probably did it to be more dramatic

I am very sad over his death, suicide is messed up, its a cowardly way out. RIP chester bennington many people loved you.

I’m legitimately screenshotting this to print and put in my journal too. We have so much in common and helped me make it to 30. This will remind me that what happened wasn’t because he wasn’t strong. But I can do better for myself as an adult than he got. And that’s all that matters in surviving, which is his legacy. A million people can’t save me but maybe I can save myself with the help of a few friends and family and accredited devoted people. And if I can’t? I’ll meet him and he’ll know I did my best. But I don’t think I’ll meet him for 70 years. Without his music I may have been there to greet him when he left this world

no, it's not cowardly only a simple-minded loser would say that. who ever thought up that saying had down syndrome. you cannot make up your own reality of the situation and then pretend its reality, if you want to call yourself a coward for committing suicide go for it but your words have no real meaning when talking about something you don't know. you are simply just repeating words that you have heard someone else say and pretending that its factual when it's a dumb thing for anyone to have ever said before. i think the saying was actual intended to reflect the person or people saying it and not the person who committed suicide anyway because they were in a distraught state of mind and angary who ever killed them self and now that saying is taking out of context and parroted and repeated by retard like you.@@benjaminbakker7643

Perfectly said…

In his songs he wrote he was reaching out for help and nobody got the messages may he rest in peace

I totally agree with you. I go thru those stages.. and it really sucks. You try to get out of it but it pulls you right back in!!!

A Thirteenth Step by A Perfect Circle was written by Maynard James Keenan who was friends with, Chris and Layne and suffered from Child Male on Male Sodomy. Also the loss of his Mother are all things which inspired him to write this LP which is the best lyrics which point out these Mental Health issues in a way that have helped many understand why certain feelings materialize. Only then can a person try to embrace the random to calm the storm within.

Some people will never understand depression no matter how much you try to get through to them. Its frustrating. only if you go through it can you recognize it. I remember the first video I saw of Chester and I knew without a doubt that Chester was a troubled passionate man.A smile can fool some but it shows in the eyes. I wish those close to him could have gotten through to him. One More Light is my very favorite song by Linkin Park. Miss you always Chester. I hope through him people see that we all matter. We all matter!!!!❤

he was murdered

​@@joshreyes4647😢

Exactly what I came here to say. There's no way I'm not reporting this shit. Chester deserves better.

​@@themetalchica Lol stop crying. It's not that serious.

@@KillstormSH I'm sure Chester would've backed you up for being a bully--the exact opposite of who he wanted to be or have as fans. Good job! 👍

Yeah I agree with you there too

agreed. im glad someone said something about it.

By the way, is Chester's photo in the thumbnail Photoshopped to have injuries? It looked like it, If it's, that's a distasteful move. A common movemadee by awful channels covering tragedies or the fall of RU-vidrs like SunnyV2.

@@jjhaya oh its definitely photoshopped.

He was murdered, look it up.

He has a hole in the back of his head, like Cornell. These fucks getting likes off BS needs to STOP

@@deaconl7552 are you dumb or what

​@deaconl7552 , you've been at the Kool Aid again, haven't you.

He was killed he was fine !

Not sarcastically meant, but you sound like one of the few sane commentors here! I wish you courage against yourself ma'm.

Sending you love and strength.

I see that most trolls have left.

Thank you for your service. Sending you love + strength ❤ 💪I also suffer with PTSD, anxiety, depression...I don't know what you're going thru but I know it sucks a lot of the time. I can relate to that. I wish you the best. God Bless 🙏

@user-gj9or9xb5s Look to Jesus Christ for healing . I have my own story like most ppl do. difference is I was saved from it all. Thank you Jesus

Chester and Betty White for me.. even though Betty was almost 100. it still hit

​@MrBibi86 I grew up with Betty white on television in the 70s 😅

Same here. 'Hi Ren' says it very well.

​@@loutsont2985I believe Chester and Ren would have been great friends if they'd met.

Yep I can relate to that

All those people thst booed him and threw stuff at him is partially responsible for his death. Not knowingly of course but your actions devastated him. Now everyone is so sad about his loss but didn't appreciate him as much when he was alive. I have clinical depression and it can only be helped by medication. However getting to a low or depressed state can be caused very easily. I can't imagine how it feels to think that everyone (literally) is against you. Then you start to remember what your life has been like and then you're there. Please think before you have an effect like this on someone.

Some say comedians are the saddest people sometimes 😢

That’s something with Robin Williams

He may have not been perfect, but at essence, he was always a great man. When I listen to Linkin Park’s songs, i feel like he’s still alive. I want to believe he’s still alive. 🙏

Chris' passing sure didn't help either! 😢

​@@rabbialmodovar7231he isn't and if religion is true he's not even in heaven because he ended himself

@@AlexTheDominator1453 God understood Bennington. God forgives suicide.

@@rabbialmodovar7231 no he doesn't he's in hell

My niece grew up with him. She knew him.

@@margieanderson8095 oh wow. I’ve always wondered if it was a family member who abused him. For some reason his lyrics make me think that

I am so sorry for what you have endured. Not that it's any more deviation of your circumstances....I would you like to add a few factors on that me being deaf and no one would ever actually hear me no matter how I tried.

@@Whiskeytango_81 I’m so very sorry that no one hears you. I can’t imagine how frustrating that is much love to you 💚 ;

I was molested and it's all the pain we all share. If I may, it took me a while to write this....

I will be honest I have listened to them over the years too. There lyrics and beat match well. But to be honest their lyrics isn't what's really Upbeat, it's actually sad, most of their songs are sad. It also speaks about their emotional struggles. It would probably make you cry before you actually feel happy. I'm really not sure if that is a good therapy. Hmm the only comfort that I feel you may have gotten was that you knew they were going through some stuff and at that point so we're you. Perhaps that's the only reason you feel a strong connection. Probably your still at that same place. Hopefully not. Hopefully your past it and living a cheerful life

I feel you man. This man his music will always be a part of me.

same. absolutely same, i will forever be in denial. They were my childhood, my teenage years....

Did you also liked them after releasing that song?

@@ahti29 I've always loved them. every single album is a gem

Soundgarden for me when black hole sun came on MTV😮 oh HELL YEA ALTERNATIVE MUSIC WAS IN TOWN❗❗❗

Behind that smile of his was just a cover up from what he was going through when we know nothing about bc we wasn’t there to witness or see it happen

I agree. Dude was laughing as Chester is talking about the darkness in his mind.

WOW..... Same here. No rhyme or reason. ❤

Play three of his song so all the time it's unbelievable this man is a hero of getting the word out through a different media that nobody else is talking about pedophilia

Yes I agree still thinking about him,so sad he passed away, and Chris Cornell, awesome singers

My niece grew up with him. She knew him well.

I know that feeling too, just like if you got upset at all anymore if that was possible you’d have to much pain to live. Sorry you had to go through it i send my best wishes!

I hope you find absolute peace. I think we all miss Chester and we could learn and heal from his music

@@margieanderson8095if it's true that's awesome I wish I got to meet him 🥲

I have had depression since I was about 18 and im still dealing with it now but there are good times that make up for it. Trust me it will get better. learn to love yourself and realise you are a good person and you are over analysing yourself. Trust me, people are so worried about themselves that they aren't judging you. Who cares if they judge you, be yourself and enjoy life as you only get one shot baby. Make that shot worth it.

Yes I remember I was in 6th grade this truly shape my life to come during thise years .

He was murdered dammit

@@paulbean_me Why do you think that? I'm really curious

He was murdered because of the book that him and Chris had had. They got his ass because he wasn’t for once with his family

@@tomorrowneverknows what book?

​@@tomorrowneverknows what you said proves absolutely nothing.....

I’m a huge fan and have been for years, but I was one of the people who criticised the new song. Fans weren’t upset about the song - most thought it was an okay pop song. It was because they hyped up this new “rock” song and then when it was released it was clearly a generic pop song. He was just so used to everyone kissing his behind since 2000 that he couldn’t accept his fans had a moment of disappointment. He turned on his fans in a really awful way (telling them to kill themselves). I hate that my last opinion of him is so low, but I try to remember that he has demons and they may have been the ones speaking.

​@@shambolicrhetoric6143 Fans were upset to the point where they were throwing things at him on stage, boo'n him and harshly judging which are all unnecessary and unacceptable. You don't have to like every song but in no way should ANYONE ever be treated like that. Period. And whether people care or not I'm sure that played a part of his relapse.

@@itsthespiceoflife “some” fans. Dude was a sloppy drunk and a coke head long before that song came out. All of his interviews in the years leading up, it was obvious he was on drugs.

I don't think people who like rock music only should be considered as Linkin Park fans. I loved the pop sound. One More Light is ahead of HT for me and others of next generation. Metal heads are annoying asf and can't handle when a band evolves from a dead genre. ​@@shambolicrhetoric6143

Unhealed trauma becomes a “tortured soul.” Trauma fragments the soul. It gives the Devil a foothold in your life to release these thoughts of self hatred, depression and darkness. I know what it’s like because I’ve been there. God SAVES the soul. Know this. He will never abandon those who cast their burdens upon him

@@loveinthematrix oh shut up.

Yes I agree 💯 may chester Bennington be at peace with God

​@@loveinthematrixyes I agree 💯❤

@@lisaparsons4124 ❤️❤️

All the guys from Linkin Park are like that. No "star" disease...

He was down to earth.

That's awesome, God seems to take the good ones early.

Agree 👍 10000%

Well said ... May you be ABUNDANTLY BLESSED my friend ... Light n love

Nice comment. I feel the same🙏💜👍

Deep down inside, Bennington was a man of God. The LORD knows he didn’t deserve any kind of mistreatment. He knows he deserved better.

😮😮😮

The other Chester got to him :((

I know exactly what he means - but one day you become terrified of yourself, terrified of what’s within you, terrified of facing the darkness of the past. This is the only way to release these demons in the soul, to go within, to work through these feelings and heal. I would have sat with him through any thought he had, any feeling - no matter how dark. You don’t have to be alone. I have baffled severe depression for many years to the point I couldn’t even talk. My family and friends were so scared of me. But I let myself break. I let myself fall into the depths in order to heal. I stopped smiling. I stopped pretending. And I looked within. I let my fake friends leave, I let everyone walk away. And I prayed to God for help. The Devil will use all of our traumas to kill, steal and destroy us - God will use all of our traumas to help others who have experienced the same thing. Please don’t end your life.

My dear @@loveinthematrix, how did you know, that today is a good day to write me that...

@@Stefan-cc7ml this makes me so happy 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 love you!! keep on!

We wear masks everyday and people don’t even realize it 😢

@@reginarepp3639 word.

A story I may add...

Life wouldn't suck so much if everyone could remember what I learned a three years old. If you don't have anything good to say don't say anything. It's easy to stop judging someone, it's called mind your own business it's not your life. Now it seems like as people instead of looking for a way to make things better they're seeing who can get worse then the one before. Kindness from just one person could change a person forever.

Honey you're obviously better than those who hurt you and stronger. You're being real. I have pretty shitty thoughts too sometimes and it's easier get them out of my head when I watch the new, etc. I always see someone who has it worse then I do. Giving a positive thought to their need. Negative loses.

DITTO my friend ❤️😢🙏

This is not what depression is about … your life can be absolutely wonderful, people around you can be wonderful, everything being absolutely perfect … but you are sad … in a dark place … not knowing why … if your life is one big shitshow it is not surprising that it looks pretty dark inside your own head, in your thoughts … this is not necessarily depression emotionally reacting to pressure and stress is natural … no medication or therapy changes a shit life getting someone down … but it can lead to clinical depression …

I feel ya

no sadly because they don’t usually remember that there favourite singers are human beings who have the same real life problems as the rest of the world, but i guess he was probably put on a pedestal by fans and yes men which i would think that chester would be uncomfortable with( especially since i have found out about his abuse and no one taking him seriously ) if like most sufferers of s.a which he hadn’t processed the trauma of it he most likely was full of shame ( shame is a bad emotion and the fact that most people don’t understand that toxic shame is not their shame and they don’t understand that shame is put on them and internalised guilt is felt but it is misplaced and some people struggle with anger and expressing it sadly and internalise it) he lost his validation friend

1,000 people are not capable of taking down a global child sex trafficking cabal. thats who killed him by "suicide"

Sounds better than what it actually says … those thousands have no real relevance at all as they neither know whats going on nor are they close enough … only those close to the person struggling can help and the person struggling needs to accept it …

🙄

My niece grew up with him. She knew him.

Very sad indeed. Not a coincidence he used the same method. Only saw him live once a very long time ago and I regret it was only that one time even though I live in Belgium. We miss you Chester ❤ hope you're at peace

@@ELOOCUY-bb9fzyou’re sad

It's tragic, that Chris Cornell's Death, wasn't seen, by Chester, as a warning sign.

He should have been focused on his kids. Sad that he's gone but like Chris it was just plain selfish and doing what they didn't didn't fix anything other than them and only fused heartache and pain for there families and millions of fans across the world! Suicide is not the answer I'm a veteran seen and been through allot if you need help or someone to talk too ask.. don't wait and if you see signs from someone take action.. don't shoulda woulda coulda 😢

I miss Chazzy so much. It still seems it was just yesterday that he was taken from us! His music will be with us in our hearts forever.

I understand your sentiment, but I must respectfully disagree. While it's true that there are many talented and awesome people in the world, Chester was an exceptional individual who brought joy and inspiration to countless fans through his music. Although there are many talented and awesome people in this world, Chester was one of a kind. His loss is a great tragedy. The day he passed, I had wishful thought. Somewhere at the same time in the world, a mother has given birth to a baby, I hope he can find his way to and be reborn, who knows, he might pop up 15- 20 years old. I know too much Wishful thinking, but if I am to hear him again and everything I need to do is just dream that being reborn is actually a thing so beat! Although he might not look the same, we will recognize him definitely from the voice.

@@spikeonecs761 what are you smoking?

I 1000% agree with you!!!! My heart and soul cry every time I hear his music!!! I'll be 38 in January, and ever since they came out, I've been a fan and I too went through hell in my teen years and he was my saving grace!!!

Leave out all the rest. That’s what my kids gonna play at my funeral. I already told my family. Even though I’m still young, but I made my decision ❤ This is my favorite song.

Same. We're all so lucky he was able to push onward and forward for as long as he did.

He showed all his fans the wrong way to handle your problems. That doesn't help anyone ! Same for Cornell & Kobain. All these guys, family and friends, and us fans had to deal with their loss so that they didn't have to deal with their lives anymore. How does that make them legends???

Lol

My cousins were going to see them in concert and Chester passed a week before. Heartbreaking to say the least 💔

My niece grew up with him. She knew him.

​@@margieanderson8095 Do you have anything else to say about him, something new? Because you're repeating yourself in every comment section with this same sentence. If you don't mind, I would love to see some stuff from people who knew him. Not just the fact that they used to know him.

@@JuditaHoffman. There is alot to show. Her picture is among the friends on the albumns. Lyrics wrote on paper. Albumns. She grew up with him so there are things from Greydaze the band before Linkin park too. They remained friends. There is alot to show. Yes, I do have more to say. He did not commit suicide. He greatly loved his fans, his Children and his life.

Fuc* those who said bad thing. Even chester Bennington said about his life a lot of time before sui****. But those suckers just wanted their gain.

I said this from day 1 when One More Light was released. Everyone around me was so angry with the album, but missed the point that artists are allowed to explore different angles of their craft. I enjoyed OML so much and appreciated it, so much so I was supposed to see and meet Linkin Park that July. A week before the show, he passed.

The album sucks, I can’t change that.

💯 Agree

Really? He seems like a little cry baby bich. I mean his greatest hit was in the first album and downhill ever since. Weak hearted

Heartbreaking 💔 l Loved his Music l sing as loud as l can Crying R.I.P

keep your head up big man

Stay strong young man I was 18 when I discovered LP I'm 40 now and their music still gets me through the darkest days

Well you don't know me from Adam but I am telling you, begging you, DON'T! I have been in the depths of hellish depression so many days of my life I'm still amazed I'm alive to type this... but obviously I never went through with it. Am I GLAD I didn't succeed the answer is YES, because suicide is A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO A TEMPORARY PROBLEM. And when we're in the very depths of our own existence you have no perspective and it seems like "I will always feel this way and I can't stand it anymore" is the place you arrive at. And the perspective is WRONG especially wrong when you are coming from such a place and just want the pain to stop. From bitter experience I DO have some answers to what you should/MUST do right away! 1. COLD SHOWERS. No reason to torture yourself you can just stick your head in the cold water for several seconds because the point is, this is almost like a re-set for your mood, (which is your biggest problem at the moment)! Just get as much cold water on your body as you can withstand, without self-torture, do it for a minimum of two weeks, and do these sessions for at least one to ten minutes THEN tell me you don't feel better afterwards! (I did it, when I did it, at the very end of my regular warm showers, and just turned the temp handle to cold gradually. 2. Get yourself some good anti-depressants and get them fast, because You need ANTI-DEPRESSANTS I am not joking! But once again there is a caveat to this and it is called: ZOLOFT, about which, I must warn you in the most emphatic terms: DO NOT let them prescribe Zoloft to you! ANYTHING but that, because it made my depression 10 times worse!. I have had good results with Paxil CR or Cymbalta, which to me, are the holy grail and will work wonders to snap you out of that mood that is urging you on to self-destruction! So start w those two things and do them today, and don't stop until your head is at the place where it is supposed to be or something approaching normality!

Hoping to not sound like a religious freak, I believe that the good always prevails. Keep focusing on the good, and the evil will have to bow down. I also have that toxic environment between my ears, but I know that it will be beaten, even though it will be the toughest battle of all. Keep fighting, it's worth it 💪❤

I was too bro,I say to you don't do it,turn away,go back to God, He saved me,He WILL save YOU.

@@f0st29 I just want to emphasize that there's also a way without the religious aspect. We all have the power in ourselves. But I also respect the belief in a higher power.

When you find yourself in a situation like you’re in, just remember to BE STILL

It was so obvious. Every line, every lyric. SO much pain.

​@@97668vfhvfnbhow can you not

@PHIL ME TOO MAN

I've heard the same, they supposedly working on an investigation on the child sex organizations overseas

Nope they are just selfish scumbags who decide to forever hurt their families in trade to end their own hurt. Stop trying to make excuses for them just because they made cool sounds.

​@@JanoyCresvaYou have no right to speak at all. Chester was not a scumbag. He suffered with drug and alcohol abuse. Neither was chris cornell a scumbag. If you don't have anything nice to say Move on with your life

​@@JanoyCresvaExactly! I truly don't understand the celebrity worship going on with most of these comments. This guy, just like Cobain, was a drug addled selfish coward who happened to make some good music. Its sad.

I agree that he and Cornell were both silenced by the music, movie and political elite that the two of them were working on a documentary about the sexual abuse, trafficking and worse of those powerful groups. Look at John Podesta photo which many say is Chester's father.

They both went to Haiti and saw the child trafficking going on under the guise of the "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" foundation. They were gonna expose it. They were Arkancided. Like so many before them.

They were both murdered. They knew too much,

They were working on something together.

I have heard that also. That they got too close to what was going on.

Yup

Same Last time in Amsterdam i tought i will go next time. 😢 thankfully i went to a concert in 2002 so ive seen them once in my life .but still regret i didnt go the last time 🙁

Agreed!

Strongly agree also don't believe either took their own life, just saying, elitist were involved no doubt

Absolutely! Cornell, Bennington, Avicci, Anthony Bourdain also! I can go on and on but this video told the truth of what we’re supposed to think what happened…. So go and google “The Silent Children” which was a documentary funded by Chris Cornell and then was cancelled after his death. “The Silent Children” was about sex trafficking. Then google Chris Cornell’s autopsy with 9 broken ribs? 2 different 911 calls, one told about a bloody gash that was on his head and the other didn’t. It was visible if you saw his last show. Also the coroner never put that in the autopsy about his head. That’s just my opinion so I’m stating what I think. Also more people involved. Also google about the recycling project in Haiti, which Lincoln Park was involved in. Im sorry but that’s my opinion….I’m not a negative person at all and don’t want to argue with anyone on here. I care too much and I’m still learning so much more. I first met Chris Cornell in 1988. I think of him every day because he has helped me my whole life through his music. He was my favorite of all time. My Legend! RIP Chris and Chester and others🌸❤️

@@jennirusso6862absolutely! What about Brittany Murphy also being linked! It’s so sad…

This is the section I was looking for. I have said this since day 1 of him passing. He was in the middle of exposing something. I think him and Chris both were part of exposing truth and I believe they were targeted because of it.

Keep fighting man. I may not know the full scope of what you're going through, but I'm rooting for you. I hope you make it through.

Oh my God, you said what I always felt!!! I still don't believe he committed suicide!!! His kids were his world and he wouldn't have left them behind like this!!!

I don't believe Chester was friends with stupid people.

Yes. She is not stupid. There are pictures of her and him and other friends. She grew up with him. She is very upset over what happened to him. Get over yourself.
