Hours after a recreational vehicle (RV) exploded in downtown Nashville in Tennessee on Christmas morning, an alleged video of the explosion mysteriously surfaced on social media.
The video titled ‘Nashville Explosion’ was uploaded on Friday in which images of the explosion were captured by a closed-circuit television camera. “This area must be evacuated now. This area must be evacuated now. If you can hear this message, evacuate now. If you can hear this message, evacuate now. If you can hear this message, evacuate now, ”repeated the automated female voice before the explosion. The attack, which injured 3 people, has created a state of panic among residents of the area.
Ford Fisher, the publisher of News2Share, took to Twitter to trace the origins of the video of the viral explosion, the details of which have now been sent to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for a more detailed investigation of the incident. He revealed that the contentious video was originally uploaded to YouTube by an account called ‘S McG’. “The account that posted it is called” S McG “and it has no biography or information, and has never posted until today since joining in 2014,” he said.

Fisher noted that the same video clip was first uploaded to Twitter by an account called ‘TA’ that joined the microblogging platform just this month. He had not posted any tweets until the alleged video clip of the Nashville explosion. “The video turns black and white after the explosion in both charges,” Fisher noted in his tweet.
The journalist emphasized how the YouTube channel, where the video was uploaded for the first time, bore an uncanny resemblance to another channel called ‘S Mc G’, which was created in April this year and had no biography. “The five videos posted on it, posted over the course of three weeks, are all very strange,” Fisher emphasized.
“S McG” who published the video of the attack has a username almost identical to that of “S Mc G”, who only joined YouTube in April 2020 and has no biography.

Fisher added that the video was published twice by said YouTube channel. “He mounts COVID-19 commercials and reports on music, and then it turns into black and white images of destruction, before a clip I don’t know how to describe,” he tweeted.
In one of those videos, the person who uploaded the video added strange music to the announcements of the Coronavirus pandemic, but then turned the video into something morbid through representations of buildings (in black and white) that mark the end of the civilization. The video ended on a horrible note with someone growling, in the middle of a dense forest, as if yelling for help. “Goodbye,” read the caption at the end.
Fisher said that in another video posted on October 1, the video featured a still image of the term “Apocalypse”, which was being searched on “DuckDuckGo” with background music from Hans Zimmer’s track “Dream Is Collapsing” from the film. “Inception”. ‘.

The journalist mentioned that the other two videos uploaded to the channel are clips captured on screen of the president of the United States, Trump, against the background of the track ‘Black Skinhead’ by Kanye West. He stressed that “the videos are identical except that you have twenty seconds of other music after.”
I want to be very clear: I have no idea who “S McG” is or if he is the same person as “S Mc G”, and even if so, if that person was involved in this incident.

Ford Fisher concluded: “I want to be very clear: I have no idea who” S McG “is or if he is the same person as” S Mc G “, and even if so, if that person was involved in this incident.” He also added that the video had been sent to the FBI law enforcement authorities.
Ok, on the advice of several other journalists, as well as my own family that I am celebrating Christmas with right now, I sent this information to the FBI.
We are preparing Christmas dinner at the moment and it is not my intention to be glued to Twitter tonight.

Nashville explosion incident
Police were reportedly responding to the shooting reports when the RV broadcast a recorded audio message warning that a bomb would explode in 15 minutes on Friday morning. Nashville police quickly jumped into action and evacuated nearby buildings prior to the explosion. Citing federal sources, CNN reported that there were no “credible threats” in the Nashville area that pointed to an attack planned for Christmas.
According to Nashville Police Chief John Drake, the police department did not receive any threats prior to the explosion. However, he admitted that the attack was “intentional” and that not much is known about the motive for the incident. Cops have also recovered tissue from the blast site and are now confirming if someone was in the RV.
Speaking about the incident, Mayor John Cooper said: “This morning’s attack on our community was intended to create chaos and fear in this season of peace and hope. But Nashville residents have proven time and again that the spirit of our city cannot be broken. “At the same time, incumbent President Donald Trump, President-elect Joe Biden, and Acting Attorney General Jeff Rosen have been briefed on the incident.
