The earliest born person ever photographed

This is just plain interesting.  The first photographs date to the 1820s and 1830s, but there were some very old people alive then, who lived through some really interesting events.  This video covers who some of these people were, and who was born the earliest.

A lot older capability than many think. A lot of folks think photography was 'new' during the civil war.

Saw the headline and thought for sure this was going to be a post about Keith Richards.

Heh. You'll know you've gone around the bend when you start posting Indian factory videos.
