Zap It! Disappearing ink gun commercial

https://peertube.co.uk/videos/watch/9287b1c5-0490-46ef-b6e2-10b55b975ee3

‘The color disappears, but the fun never ends.’ That is, until the mailman beats your ass.

Awww, little runt can dish it out but he can’t take it huh?

“The color disappears, but leaves a strange chemical stain on many fabrics!”
should have been the slogan.

Or maybe the slogan should be….

“The color disappears, but the rash lasts for hours!” Wacky!

Ah, the days when a child carrying an Uzi wasn’t taboo.

I love that first shot of the kid popping out the door with a pistol. Times have changed, eh?

Why back in my day, a kid could carry an arsenal of matte-black water-weapons, enough to start his own nation-state!

Zapruder Film – Close up – John Kennedy Assassination – Dallas

https://peertube.co.uk/videos/watch/e1b133e5-8b95-47b6-989a-478c8f3b00ff
New working link

The Zapruder film is a silent 8mm color motion picture sequence shot by Abraham Zapruder with a Bell & Howell home-movie camera, as United States President John F. Kennedy’s motorcade passed through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963.

Unexpectedly, it ended up capturing the President’s assassination.

Its surprising to many with him “freezing” right before the hit? like he locks up.

He is e’s freezing up because he just got shot in the neck.

Furthermore, he suffered from sever back pains for most of his life and at this instant was wearing a stiff brace to support it. With this in place, he wasn’t able to slouch as would be expected after the first shot through the neck, but rather held him erect and vulnerable to the lethal shot. This rigid support also possibly helps give the appearance of the ‘third shot,’ back and to the left.

Also many are shocked by his arms coming up like wings is an involuntary.

The Last Note: The John F. Kennedy’s assassination forever changed Vice President Lyndon Johnson.
