The death or injury of a loved one. Some survivors even saw people die in front of their eyes. These are the reasons why people are traumatized. However, in modern society, people do not attach importance to the intervention of others and the importance of psychological counseling. Instead, they advocate self-regulation and self-digestion of these pains, fears, and anxieties. However, these cannot be resolved only by using personal power. As a result, people’s psychological state has become increasingly worrying. This paper uses the comments in the short video about the incident to study the information that can be displayed in the comments. For example, the content of comments by reviewers, the IP address of reviewers, and the number of likes or comments. The results show the psychological impact on people in Henan Province. Some of them have psychological trauma after the disaster. Besides, People in provinces adjacent to Henan Province had noticeable feelings, impressions, and attention to the event.
