Man who escaped London Fire breaks down talking about how his brother is its first confirmed victim

网友评论：

Harry Demetriou‏

You should not be interviewing a man in this state. You're taking advantage of a victim for your own gain. Not okay.

Michael Smith‏

Why do you show this as news? Why is someone's reaction to utter devastation to their lives an important thing to show?

Kay John

I think it's the information they're after and not really to portray their devastation. We all would like to know what happened.

Bill greathead‏

Submarine May, she disappeared out of sight.

Tahir

Theresa May not meeting victims has added insult to injury.

Ibn Sahara

You can literally see the devastation in his eyes. The soul-crushing guilt he must be going through is palpable. So so sad.

Garry Dempster‏

They reckon it could be in the hundreds. I honestly wish I knew what to do at times like this. How to help people.

Angie Davidson Moore

This is heartbreaking; many more stories like this to come and they need to be told.

Michael D. George

Is this really an 'interview'? It feels exploitive and unnecessary. The last thing this man needs is a camera in his face. Shameful.
