May it be fan-drawing,vid, or web-comic, just like any other entertainment medium, [[Web Original]] do not fail to [[Tear Jerker|tear out our hearts...]]


* Say what you will about Dragonforce, but [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6cJnG6kO60 This] video will make you choke up.
* ''[[Broken Saints]]'' has a number of these, chiefly:
**  {{spoiler|Sandra's}} death.
** Raimi's [[World of Cardboard Speech]].
** The final chapter is full of this.
** The fate of {{spoiler|Bula}}. Combined with [[Nightmare Fuel]].
* Several in ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'', although given the [[Kill'Em All|premise]] of the roleplay, that isn't really surprising. One example is the death of {{spoiler|Andrew Lipson.}} He is  {{spoiler|hit by lightning, and survives, however, the electronics on his wheelchair are shorted out. This leaves him attempting to arrest his descent down a slope, an endeavour in which he fails, causing him to fall from a cliff.}} ''He doesn't die'', and is  {{spoiler|left, immobile, on the beach below as the tide comes in, causing him to slowly drown}}. The fact that he was talking to his best friend on the phone when {{spoiler|the lightning struck}} makes it even more saddening.
** Also, {{spoiler|Hawley Faust}}'s death - giving in to his injuries after days of struggling to overcome his wounds. The emotional reactions of the other characters around him are what makes this especially upsetting.
*** The ending of v2 counts, too. At least what parts of it have come out so far.
** V3. Three people needlessly die in under a minute, and the rest realize just how empty the game has really made them. [https://web.archive.org/web/20090110150932/http://z10.invisionfree.com/SOTF_V2/index.php?showtopic=2564&st=90 Words cannot do it justice.]
*** The one where the members of SADD came in before that chain of events was [[Tear Jerker]]]] as well.  {{spoiler|Corbin's death}} from poison after committing an [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to give the rest of the members time to recover before slowly dying and requesting the song American Pie by Don McLean and rain falling down and Dominica crying.
** As long as we're on the subject of v3 deaths, the death of {{spoiler|Jake Henkie}} counts. All the guy does is yell his best friend's name upon seeing her - unfortunately, a student hiding in the bushes nearby is startled, and shoots him in the head, blowing off half of his jaw. {{spoiler|He dies in the arms of Trish [[Mc Carroll]], unable to even speak to her, and Trish is completely devastated.}} [http://z10.invisionfree.com/SOTF_V2/index.php?showtopic=2561 Read it here for the depressing details.]
** [http://z10.invisionfree.com/SOTF_V2/index.php?showtopic=3002 The Answer.]
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20120910065757/http://s10.zetaboards.com/SOTF_V2/topic/7336656/1 A White and Soundless Place].  {{spoiler|The death of "Dutchy" Ayers.}}
* {{spoiler|Bree's death (and posthumous phone message)}} in the ''[[Lonelygirl15]]'' "[[Season Finale]]".
** {{spoiler|Gina's [[Heroic Sacrifice]]}} in "Prom: It's To Die For".
*** If the episode itself didn't get you, "No More Fear" will.
* Charlie's tearful goodbye in the ''[[Kate Modern]]'' episode "I Miss You...": {{spoiler|"You couldn't sleep. And now you can sleep. You can sleep, Kate. Goodnight, Kate; I miss you so much."}}
* Oddly enough, [[Zero Punctuation]] had one at the end of his [https://web.archive.org/web/20130206070131/http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/25-Sim-City-Societies review for Sim City Societies.] Poor [[Team Fortress 2|Medic]]...
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20121112090654/http://www.animationarcade.com/animation/imissyoudaddy.html This animation]
* At the end of the 6th arc of the otherwise ''very'' carefree and funny ''Nameless'' series, we discover a new supporting character's {{spoiler|mother had sex with him.}} Right after we discover this, he  {{spoiler|stabs ''both'' of the other new, likable supporting characters, straddles one, and talks to her while mutilating her body.}} The fact that it's played for laughs doesn't detract from it's impact.
* The last few seconds Weebl and Bob's 100th episode packed quite a punch.
{{quote|'''Weebl:''' But... but I love donkey! DONKEY, DON'T DIE!}}
* The final two parts of ''Meet me in the graveyard'', especially with the distressingly ambiguous ending.
* Considering the whole series started as a spoof of the "I'm A Mac / I'm A PC" ads featuring superhero action figures snarking about each other's movies, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSsWVwFpNzs the final part] of [[Its Just Some Random Guy]]'s first [[YouTube]] ''Marvel / DC'' series "After Hours" has far more [[Tear Jerker]] moments than it by rights should have. [[Superman]]'s crisis of confidence? [[Captain America (comics)]]'s words of inspiration from beyond the grave? Superman's moment of self-sacrifice? ("But no one will ever know!" "''I'll know''.") The Marvel heroes denying Luthor's [[Hannibal Lecture]] by acknowledging that they believe in Superman? Stan Lee's tribute to Superman?
* [http://silverpoot.deviantart.com/art/If-Only-to-Fly-29401227?offset=70 If Only To Fly]{{Dead link}}. A little bit like {{spoiler|Kiwi}}: The Musical.
* The toon ''[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sadjournal/wonderyears.html The Secrets That I Keep]'' on ''[[Homestar Runner]]''. It's really depressing  {{spoiler|how much Strong Bad and Strong Sad's relationship got derailed.}}
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20131105112721/http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemailxmas.html The Decemberween Email page] to be bizarrely sad.
*** {{spoiler|The Paper}} seen dying after so long shocked and startled fans, going into a deep, probing (made-up) montage. Many fans saw this coming due to a spoiler in Strong Bad Email "montage", and still others thought this was a fitting/hilarious end to {{spoiler|The Paper}}. His counterpart, {{spoiler|New Paper}}, became [[The Scrappy]] and the [[Replacement Scrappy]] at the same time, and its {{spoiler|death in "email thunder"}} may be considered fanservice.
**** {{spoiler|[[Companion Cube|Compy386]] also}} fits this rather well.
** This is actually parodied with [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail109.html Li'l Brudder]. You might start crying... until the end, when you can't stop grinning.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZMsZOvxn_k&feature=player_embedded Watch this Filpnote] and cry.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNF6zH3pjDU Tir Nan Og]
* There is a new fad of "and [Engrish name of a character]" videos on [[YouTube]], which shows a still picture with [[Tear Jerker]] stories in the comments. There is one for everybody. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVyOez_TxwQ&feature=related And Sehntree][http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPWF3ugUkQw&feature=related And Snipa] ... try not to get too touched.
* The [[SCP Foundation]]. Specifically, the fate of [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-231 SCP-231-7.] That poor girl ''defines'' [[The Woobie|woobie.]] ''Extreme'' combination of [[Nightmare Fuel]] and [[Tear Jerker]].
** Not just 231-7. [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-132 SCP-132] feels all of the pain and sorrow in the world. [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-202 SCP-202] lives his life backwards. [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-590 SCP-590] is an abused victim of a cruel organization that uses him as a dumping ground for disease. [http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-116 SCP-116], the Brittle Boy, has no joints: every time he moves, he breaks his bones and heals them up again, causing extreme pain. The Foundation's humanoid SCPs are generally either this or [[Nightmare Fuel]].
** "[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/black-white-black-white-black-white-black-white-black-white black white black white black white black white gray]", just in case you needed another reminder that the Foundation is in a [[Crapsack World]].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pJpvuqF5oQ Beyond The Window], a small animation about a disabled boy who wishes upon a star. If you take a look at the lyrics set to it partway down [https://web.archive.org/web/20080807071430/http://www.nightsintodreams.com/NiD/indigo/beyond/thewindow.htm this] page, it makes it even more sad.
* ''[[Draw With Me]]''. The person who animated it has made several illustrations with these characters. And then he drew [http://mikeinel.deviantart.com/art/I-Don-t-Want-Your-Arm-137465346 this]. Spoilers for the video. [[Tear Jerker|But my]] '''''[[Tear Jerker|goodness]]'''''[[Tear Jerker|...]]
* Episodes two and five of [[Tree From My Youth]]. Episode two for, well, {{spoiler|Hinawa's death and Flint's reaction}}, and episode five for {{spoiler|Claus finally giving his last breath, narrowly missed being heard by his father and grandfather. Buzzards are barely audible as they begin to tear him apart}}. The latter moment is quite possibly ''worse'', as Claus's actor had his tonsils removed a few days before recording and had trouble speaking.
* You wouldn't think a [[YouTube Poop]] would be tear jerker material, but you're [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH-aRdKtfYI&feature=channel_page sadly mistaken.]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OVCpD-7nI4&feature=channel_page SADLY mistaken.]
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTTVMb6jmh0&feature=related The ending of this one deserves a mention.]

* [http://www.dayswithmyfather.com Days with my father] is a heartwarming story, and deserves to be shown to the world.

[http://yuumei.deviantart.com/art/Tape-it-Back-Together-115084918 The picture that it is based on] is even worse.
* Laugh if you will, but the final episode of [[Salad Fingers]]. After having a hallucination about his radio (who demands that he give back some hairs he found on the floor), he refuses and hides in his "protection cupboard". The last scene shows him eating the hairs while crying, and the camera zooms back to show his house, as you hear him crying.
** This episode entitled [http://youtube.com/watch?v=Khte6285zSO Salad Fingers- Shore Leave].
* Part Two of the finale for [[Arby 'n' the Chief]], when Chief and the Arbiter {{spoiler|realize that they're beginning to fall apart}}.
* [[Gaia Online|"I'm sorry... you never knew the real Rudi... I have doomed us all...."]]
* [[There She Is]] doesn't seem like one at first. But with five animated shorts, you start getting into the [[Unstoppable Rage]] and [[Tear Jerker]] territories at the fourth episode--maybe the third if you understand the implications at the very ending.
* I'm... not really sure if this belongs here, but first, an explaination: You know the upcoming [[Epic Mickey]] game? You know, the one that portrays Walt Disney's first creation Oswald the Lucky Rabbit as a vengeful villain? Well, many Deviantart artists (including myself) have done creepy art of him as a bad guy, but a bit of fanart shook up this perception. If you can look at [http://igaki.deviantart.com/art/Really-now-Are-you-sure-140701001 these] [http://igaki.deviantart.com/art/YURE-TEW-SLAAAOOW-140701227 images] (in order) without even tearing up, then you ''have no soul''.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D9RBF46sxk This] ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' video could probably get a few people to tear up.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=WX_ZZ75fZYo And...]

*  {{spoiler|Red's}} death in [[There Will Be Brawl]]. The funeral and accompanying song -- perfectly in sync with the rest of what's going on -- makes it even sadder.
** "So, uh...was I any good?"
* Not sure if it should be posted here, or under the Real Life section, but [http://chasenoface.blogspot.com/ the "faceless" cat] always makes me tear up.

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0G9vDKcdLg Change the music, and it instantly becomes ten times as heartbreaking.]
* The Madness Combat series, at the very end of number 6, with Hank, lower jaw completely gone, missing teeth in his upper, his skull smashed to the point that his brain is exposed, and just finding that his nemesis, Tricky, has not only survived being shot and dropped off the cliff, but come back as some horrific monster. When the Bad Ass that never shows unflinching hesitation at * anything* stops for a few seconds to stare in disbelief, but then kicks back into the "screw you" mode and starts firing..... it gets to me.
* The endings of the [[Colour My... Series]] flash games can really get to you. The [[Crowning Music of Awesome|music]], too.
* ''[[The British Railway Series]]'', a [[Thomas the Tank Engine]]-inspired [[YouTube]] series showing the lives of real engines, has its share. The biggest is in  {{spoiler|''The Legacy of Gadwall'', when Gadwall, the first engine to have been renamed Sir Ralph Wedgewood, dies during the bombing of York station. Carly Simon's version of Danny Boy is used to great effect.}}
* The end of [http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/416434 Alfred's Playhouse] (NSFW!) in which Alfred confronts his mind. In fact, the whole series. Something about the sexually abused dog who desperately retreats into a fantasy world in order to escape the trauma really gets to me.
* One of the most tragic scenes in ''[[The Salvation War]]'' opens chapter 29, when the [[Kill'Em All|decimated]] survivors of Abigor's army return; there are only 3 to 4 hundred living daemons out of ''400,000'', and many of those survivors were left cripples maimed by human weaponry. More than any other this one scene, with female daemons desperately searching for their mates among the survivors on a parade ground, drives home the extent of the [[Hopeless War|futility of the daemon incursion]] that never made it past the first, only, and decisive battle on Earth.
** A subsequent scene also starring Abigor is when {{spoiler|Satan}} punishes him for his failure by ordering him to make another attack using his entire clan (including mates and kidlings) and the army's survivors, which is so obviously a forced suicide that he ends up ''deliberately'' bunching up his rag-tag "force" in hopes that the inevitable artillery shelling will kill them instantly instead of leaving them horribly maimed. {{spoiler|Fortunately, the artillery barrage is targeted ''around'' them, and he is allowed to surrender}}.
** Perhaps even more tragic are the scenes in Chapters 70 and 71 of Pantheocide following Uxhalar, an angel who survived the nuclear strike on Elhmas' army, as he dies of radiation poisoning.
* ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XWsk2tkwGs America's Saddest Home Videos]''. You'd expect a parody of [[America's Funniest Home Videos]] showcasing some of the most tragic incidents caught on tape to have at least a ''few'' laughs in it, but it plays the title straight.
** ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOncsnYp7Ic Honest Graduation Song]'', also from Collegehumor counts, espically for actual grad students who go through the same thing.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa0R_2K9iec This impression] of [[Batman: The Animated Series|Mark Hamill's Joker]] saying a speech from [[The Killing Joke]] is a surprising tearjerker. It actually makes you feel bad for the Joker, and that's no small feat.
* {{spoiler|Ahmad's}} death in [[The Leet World]].
{{quote|{{spoiler|'''Ahmad:'''}}Guess I'm just a Noob to the end?
{{spoiler|'''Cortez:'''}} No {{spoiler|Ahmad}}, you are a noobito no longer. I know now you are the greatest badass the world has ever seen

* [https://web.archive.org/web/20100813153206/http://www.givesmehope.com/ GivesMeHope.com]. Often said to be the opposite of F My Life (which deals in [[Amusing Injuries]], [[Disaster Dominoes]], and the like), Gives Me Hope deals in [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|Crowning Moments of Heartwarming]].
** In particular, the following entry.
{{quote|My best friend died in a car accident on his way to deliver me soup for my cold. Found in the car was also a bouquet of flowers and a card that read: "We've been best friends for the last 5 years. Now, let's be lovers for the next 50." Unforgettable love Gives Me Hope.}}
* Some ''chain letters''. One in particular where a girl got into a car accident after drinking, and asked the doctors just before she died to tell her parents she was sorry...{{spoiler|but they couldn't, because her parents had been in the other car.}}
*  {{spoiler|Susan's}} death in Chewbot's [[Let's Play]] of [[Plague and Treachery On The Oregon Trail]], or at least  {{spoiler|her}} least words - "I love you, yoo stupid american."
* [[The Guild]]: There's a rather sad moment right near the end of series 3 ep 9 where {{spoiler|Codex realises that the Knights Of Good have completely collapsed thanks to the rival guild}}
** The end of season 2, when [[spoiler:she's casually discarded by the man she's been pining over with the words "She isn't worth fighting over." [[Jerkass|That bastard.]]
* Say what you will about [[Gaia Online]]. One of their more recent Manga updates shows that [[Anyone Can Die|anyone]] can indeed [[Killed Off for Real|die]] and was downright depressing.  {{spoiler|Johnny K. Gambino fans in particular will find this one hard to read.}}
**  {{spoiler|This isn't the first time Gambino has been shot fatally by an assassin. This time he wasn't even falling from a tower into the ocean.}}
*** True, and there's a few theories out there already that say he's either alive and ordering hits on clones, has come back as a grunny, or will come back in the future. Still, he wasn't exactly  {{spoiler|crazy enough to inject himself with his own experiments}} this time around as far as anyone knows, and Gino  {{spoiler|wasn't around this time so that even if Johnny was that crazy they couldn't meld together like last time.}} And assuming he didn't have any [[Gameplay and Story Segregation|rings]] on him, he probably isn't Dazed and hiding out in the Null Chamber. And if he ''does'' turn out alive by the end, it's gonna be one of the [[Ass Pull|cheapest cop-outs in storyline history]]; any attempts to justify it [[Voodoo Shark|would be similarly cheap]].
* [[New York Magician]]: {{spoiler|The death of Michel's grandmother.}}
* Laugh all you want, but [http://icanhascheezburger.com/2008/04/24/funny-pictures-why-no-one-comes/ this] [[LOLcats]] image...

** ''That'' is a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]] right there.
* What could ''possibly'' be sad about [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAO3P_zxIZY a video review of Cosmic Encounter and Heroscape]? If you haven't heard the news already, watch the whole thing to the end, and then think a for a minute. It's not mentioned in the video itself, but it's inclusion on this page is a major hint.  {{spoiler|his son passed away not long after that video was made.}}
* Browsing Youtube, you may come across a vid called "Schindler's List: [[The Musical|The Musical".]] At first, you may think it's a troll video designed to incite anger. Then you watch it. ''And you bawl.''
* ''[[Immor Tall]]''. Just play the game.
* There's one in [[Marble Hornets]]. Jay's Twitter post on December 25, 2010 reads: "Lonely holiday, but not as bad as last year. At least I didn't have to climb a rotting tower this time." More than anything else, more than the stalking, the attacks, the disappearances, the hotels, all that driving, even the apartment incident, this drives home the idea that this is his ''life'' now. He doesn't ''have'' anything else, and he's alone in the world; the rare few human beings he encounters, including old friends, have questionable intentions at best. All just because he wanted to find out what happened to Alex. [[Curiosity Killed the Cast|Curiosity Ruined The Cast's Life]], indeed.
** Also, entry 35, in which  {{spoiler|Alex and Jay find out Masky is Tim, and}} Alex ends up smashing Tim's leg. Poor Tim. And it's entirely possible that he was trying to HELP Alex and Jay, but instead, Alex attacks him. In fact, if it weren't for Jay, Alex most likely would have ''killed'' Tim.
* There are ''plenty'' in [[Everyman HYBRID]], mostly due to every character becoming [[The Woobie]] at at least one point or another. Of special mention, {{spoiler|Jessa's implied fate and Jeff's reactions,}} as well as Alex's refusal to accept {{spoiler|his parents' deaths}} and how broken he seems to react to {{spoiler|[[Evil-Detecting Dog|Sparky's]] death}}, and some of the Corenthal letters. All mixed with healthy doses of [[Nightmare Fuel]]. And Jeff's tweet after mother's day: [http://twitpic.com/4vofvm (spoilers)]
* [http://www.powerstrike.net/Tehkan/mamelove.html Mame Love], set to a song by Chinese singer Li Li Fen. Also from the site is [http://www.powerstrike.net/Tehkan/mameforever.html Mame Forever], set to Alphaville's ''Forever Young''. Try not to cry while watching these Flash animations...
* And oh, if you think Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody is tearjerking as is, singing the song to the [[Engrish]] that is the [[Zero Wing]] European [[Mega Drive]] intro takes it up to a whole new level. It may seem [[Narm]] at first, but once you get to the ending... [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE6emvdmg-M See it here].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ezwCnfBoGY Robochi Gets Flamed].

You can live a normal life...or you can be happy."}} And then the final scene with {{spoiler|the guy hanging out and just enjoying life with all of his imaginary friends}}...*wibble*
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20131128213105/http://motiongraphics.nu/experimental/thought/ This video.] So simple, so beautiful. Beautiful song, beautiful animation, beautifully put-together, and utterly soul-crushing. ''"I thought of you, where you'd gone, and the world spins madly on."''
* ''[[Lenore the Cute Little Dead Girl]]''. But given that the main character dies, it should be tragic. Also given the fact that [[Tear Jerker|Ragamuffin would now be alone]]. [[Death Is Cheap|She returned in the continuation of the comic, though.]]
* We all love our fandoms on Tumblr, but it's touching when fandoms stand up for one [http://thetardis.tumblr.com/post/7352725207/an-open-letter-to-the-harry-potter-fandom/ another.]
* [[One Chance]]: No matter what you do, you just can't win...
* The death of [[Dick Figures|Kitty Amazing]] will oddly make you choke up watching it.
* ''One Chance'' is a game available for play on Kongregate. You play a scientist who must live through the last six days of humankind's existence on Earth. Why? {{spoiler|You helped develop a cancer vaccine, but it proved deadly. So many people took it, that even those who didn't feel that there is no point in going on living}}. You can choose to divide your time at home or at work. {{spoiler|But no matter how much you go to work, the situation will not get better. On the third day, your wife commits suicide. On another day, you can go to the roof and watch a coworker jump off}}. And then, on the sixth day, {{spoiler|the scientist lies down on the cold floor of his lab, alone. The game ''[[No Ending|does not end]]'' after this. There are no credits, no final scene}}. Despite the primitive graphics, ''One Chance'' is an absolutely effective tragedy.
* In the web original story [[Paperwalls]],  {{spoiler|the death and funeral of Sandy Shaw, Cameron's mother}}
* This excellent [[Batman]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtqgITheZmc fanvid] set to "Hurt" by [[Johnny Cash]] sums up Batman's character very well, while being quite sad, (though considering the subject matter...)
* You'd think a funny internet show like [[Leo and Satan]] would usually have a funny ending every episode. The episode "Trash Hazard" subverts the usual happy ending by  {{spoiler|having Satan accidentally killing Leo and crying over his grave. This scene isn't even [[Played for Laughs]].}} Talk about a [[Mood Whiplash]]...
* You wouldn't expect to cry from something on a site called "Pokémemes", [http://pokememes.memebase.com/2011/10/30/pokmon-never-forget but]...
* On the subject of Pokémemes, [http://i51.tinypic.com/241v0o2.jpg Dragonite Dad].

* [[Red vs. Blue]] Season 9's ending:  {{spoiler|"No, I forget you." Tex disappears for good. That is probably what the quote was about, forgetting about Tex/Alison and moving on.}}
* 80% of ''[[Die Anstalt]]'' is this. The remaining 20% is [[Nightmare Fuel]].
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEhtsgu6bJg Sean Bean Death Reel]. Most of his roles were villains and had it coming to them, but, especially because of the sad music that plays, watching such a likable actor die over and over again is really heartwrenching.
* The [[YouTube Poop]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJUtuAvxOpg Dora's Miscalculation.]
