Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Ever had one of those heart stopping moments when you come so close to death that your life flashes before your eyes?

We take a look ten terrifying near death experiences caught on film. From a baby in a stroller rolling off a train platform and disappearing beneath an incoming train; to a death defying leap from an aeroplane that could have ended in disaster when the parachuter came out on top of another plane.

Be warned, this lot are not to be viewed by the faint of heart.
