We've all thought about the end of the world at some point, but it turns out a video will play if doomsday is actually happening.

More specifically, it's a song that will be broadcast, and if you're familiar with the story of the Titanic, or are hymn fan, it's a poignant one.

Luckily for us, the video has leaked so we don't have to wait until the end of the world to watch it.

As tragically depicted in the James Cameron blockbuster, as the Titanic slipped below the waves of the Atlantic Ocean, the band kept on playing.

According to reports, one of their last songs was the hymn 'Nearer My God To Thee'.

Billionaire CNN founder Ted Turner has revealed that the popular news channel has a plan for doomsday, stating that it will continue to cover events 'until the world ends'.

As reported by Jalopnik, he said of a possible doomsday event: "We'll be on, and we will cover the end of the world, live, and that will be our last event.

"We'll play the National Anthem only one time, on the first of June [the day of CNN's launch], and when the end of the world comes, we'll play 'Nearer My God To Thee' before we sign off."

But don't worry if you've still got hope that the world won't end in your lifetime, as the video that the song will come in has already been leaked - as shown above.

Filmed outside the Turner mansion in the 1980s, it shows a band playing the iconic hymn before the video slowly fades to black.

The video, which is known as the Turner Doomsday Video, was leaked by an employee of the channel to Jalopnik, but writer Michael Ballaban said he saw it while working as an CNN intern in 2009.

He wrote: "This is the way the world ends, not with a bang, not with a whimper, but with one melancholy little band, and a quick fade to black."

While the video first went viral after it was posted to YouTube in 2015, it has recently been a topic of discussion again after going viral on TikTok.

However, while the video might have only been seen by a larger audience recently, it's been around since the 1980s and 1990s, when it was allegedly created in case there was a nuclear war.

Ballaban explained that CNN employees were well aware of the video at the time of his internship in 2009, but he did have to consciously look for the video.

"It's one of those things you only look for if you're a really bored intern or have a lot of time on your hands," he told the Guardian.
