===Seconds From Disaster - Show General Information===
The program investigates historically relevant man-made and natural disasters. Each episode aims to explain a single incident by analyzing the causes and circumstances that ultimately affected the disaster.

The series features historical reenactment, interviews, testimony, and CGI (Computer-generated Imagery) to deconstruct the sequence of events second-by-second for the audience.

Each episode begins with a chronological re-enactment of the disaster, which is always cut into several scenes displaying critical moments in the unfolding of the disaster with a clock appearing at the beginning of each scene. After the sequence of events, the show "winds back" the scenes to analyse the causes and events leading up to it.

=== Episode Information ===

During the Olympic Games in Munich, 11 Israeli athletes are held hostage by Palestinian terrorists. They demand the list of Palestine prisoners in exchange for the release of the athletes. But at Fürstenfeldbruck Airport, a rescue attempt goes wrong and by 12:01 am on the next day, 17 people are dead. Perhaps the real story here is the manner in which German authorities handles this incident and how politics affected that entire process.

=== COMING SOON===

As of today I have another 19 episodes to upload and will try to get one done every couple of days until they are all done. If there is a particular episode you are looking for, pm me and I'll try to move it up the list.
=== Uploader's Comments===
Note 1: I've discovered that a couple of my earlier uploads of this particular show have commercials and I'm trying to find software and figure out how to use it in order to eliminate same (Thank you for your previous comments and suggestions in this regard, I will get to them soon) . If you've downloaded one of these with the adverts you have my apologies. This particular episode is advert free.

Note 2: In only a couple of minor instances I've noticed the audio slightly out of sync with the video. As these episodes are mostly narrated by an unseen narrator it is of little consequence and only affects the occasional portion of the show involving very short interviews. This has only occurred a couple of times in the 30 or so episodes I have viewed. I am personally unable to view videos and the like when this problem occurs but have had no difficulty with these shows. I am quite new at all of this and would welcome any and all feedback. Feel free to pm me with any comments or suggestions. If memory serves me correct, this particular episode may have a blackout of about one minute but did not cause a significant problem for me when I viewed the show. In any event it is the only available copy of this episode that I could find anywhere.
Enjoy the show.
