    Fun fact. The creator of this video turned it into a NFT and sold it to some fucking idiot for $500k.

    Fun fact: Osama bin Laden, the founder of Al-Qaeda, had this video in his computer’s audio/visual collection.

      Another fun fact: the contents of his computers that weren’t scrubbed because of known malware or classified intelligence value are available courtesy of the CIA: https://www.cia.gov/library/abbottabad-compound/index.html

        What gives. I hate how much time I’ve already wasted trying to figure out why this is the one time CIA shares our American work with Americans.

        It’s been like 30 seconds. I don’t know why they’d do this.

    Just a reminder that the creator of this video published it as a NFT during the NFT hype a few years back, and sold it to some fucking idiot for $800k.
