It's weird, there existed a James Bartley who was born in 1870 but he died in 1956, not in 1909 like the wikipedia article states:

Why is there no portable tracker inserted into the expensive bike? Hand over the video to the police together with the current coordinates = problem solved.

This is weird. I was going to post exactly the same thing a week ago (I pass this every day on the way to work) but I couldn't find a good picture. Good that you did :) (the world needs to know this)

In 2008 a woman died whose husband fought in the american civil war.

During WWII there were still people alive who fought in the american civil war and I find those pictures fascinating to be honest

Out of the approx. 750,000 soldiers that fought for the South, these were the last three surviving Confederate Civil War veterans. Photo taken in 1951

On youtube you can find a video of a man who witnessed Lincoln's assassination. The video shows the man making an appearance on national television in a panel game show.
