Came across this one couple of days ago and wanted to share it with you all .

The Commentary is quite funny from today's perspective. When describing the wildlife, every phrase is about killing, murderous, dangerous, etc.

Thanks for sharing @PerH !

I was in Rochester last summer and visited the George Eastman House/ Museum. Eastman was founder of Kodak. When I walked into his house I was greeted by a large bull elephant and many of his taxidermy trophies from hunting in Africa. I was surprised to learn he hunted East Africa twice, 1925 and 1928 with Philip Percival as PH and Osa and Martin Johnson.

More film from Osa and Martin’s hunt
