01:22:31 C/U propellor on car. This odd propellor driven vehicle speeds around a corner.
01:22:43 "Fat Man's Outing" - a group of rather large gentlemen get onto a Paris bus. The bus drives along, it looks fairly heavy on its suspension.

01:23:45 Blindfolded man man walks along plank suspended high above city streets. He falls but lands on the plank. Man (thankfully without blindfold) does headstand on plank, the street is a long way below. Man dangles by feet from plank - he then holds a woman on a rope out in mid air.
01:24:10 Woman rides horse off 30 ft high wooden scaffold into pool - rather odd.
01:24:16 Man climbs up high ladder decorated with bunting. He appears to set light to himself. View from above as he dives into pool of water. From this angle it is clear that the smoke is in fact from smoke canisters. Slow motion shots as he dives into the water.

Crowds cheer as car leaves - Treaty provided the basis for the foundation of the Irish Free State.

The death penalty has been carried out in almost all societies and although these images from WWI and WWII are unsettling, they still provide a raw account of events from a certain time.
The images taken from inside Buchenwald Concentration Camp after its Liberation show us what it was like; it tells us what happened and forces us to remember.
10 telling images selected from British Pathé's extensive WWI footage. 'The war to end all wars' was a war without parallel: over 70 million military personnel were involved and over 17 million people died.
