Have you ever cried from a death of someone you personally didn't know?

My only time was when Steve irwin died.

The passing of michael brooks yesterday had me extremely close.

Dude, i don't even cry when people I know die. Only when my dogs die.

I agree about Irwin. Owen Hart was tough!

I had a friend (in Australia) who's whole family cried when Owen Hart died.

A few celebrities.
Bruce Lee. I mean, he was dead before I was born but I shed a few tears in the “Be Water” doc, especially, when his two young children were near his open-casket. Dude was the reason why I got into martial arts.
Ayrton Senna.

I’m sure a few more here and there.

I was young when his death happened. Some WWF events my parents would allow me to stay up for. The ones I were not allowed to were recorded to VHS or if through PPV replayed the next day, only censored for nudity/graphic violence.

I really wanted to stay up for that one but was not allowed. I had no idea until the next day what had unfolded. Pre internet.

I remember when Amy Winehouse died and my girlfriend at the time was a huge fan and I tried to muster up a couple tears in front of her and it just wasn’t happening. Much of that had to do with me being tempted to tell her “ She should’ve gone to rehab.”

Dusty Rhodes
He was my childhood hero and such a beloved figure that was always so full of life and joy and when he suddenly died unexpectedly it broke me down a bit
That was the only time I ever cried for someone I didnt know

No. I'm from third world. We can't afford such sentiments nor PTSD.

I'm kidding about the dogs, but no. I cried when a friend died when I was 10 and that was it. I've been through a lot of death among friends and family. I'm not a very emotional person.

9/11 broke me pretty good.

The magnitude of the event didn't hit me until I saw the footage when I got home. It all just hit me at once, that thousands of people were needlessly killed in an instant. I wasn't thinking about details of fathers and mothers never returning home, or babies being in those planes. It just all came in a ball of misery, and I had a good man cry over it.
