Post famous pictures from history!!

[MournSanity]

EDIT: I found the original picture I wanted. So instead of leaving this thread to rot, I am protoing the posting of famous historical photographs. SO post any famous photos you think everyone should see.




----------original thread below-------------





The picture of the man holding a gun in front of another guy who is wincing and about to have his head blown off. It's a very famous picture, but I can't find it on google. I don't think I have the right seach perameters.

NBC also showed film of the execution.

I knew I had seen it in video form back in the day.
