Is it normal to watch graphic videos that might involve death or a tragedy?

I don't do it often, but sometimes something in the news will spark my attention and haunt me to no end. I obsessively start looking up whatever I can find, and sometimes there'll be a graphic video. I don't necessarily like doing it, I just feel the need to, lIke a bit of OCD where I feel like by watching the video, I can fix the situation or find new details as if to help in some way. Recently there was a ship that sunk and people drowned. Somebody had the video of it right before it sunk and I watched it multiple times, wishing I could do something. Should I talk to my psychiatrist about this or just let it go?
