The Battle of Cannae for sure.

Not because I would enjoy seeing 50 thousand Romans get butchered, but rather focus on the tactics used by Hannibal.

The parting of the Red Sea. I like watching the show Drain the ocean, so to see it in the reals would be hot.

Not to get political, but...

Not sure which event, but knowing what I know now, it would be fascinating to watch some of the Mexican American war and see all these generals working together that would be killing each other in a few years.

Just fricking tragic. It’s always been something that interested me, how that war trained everyone together for our own war. Battle Cry of Freedom glosses over it, a lot of others do not.

Not sure you could count it as one event or not but it would definitely be the stretch of time from the Last Supper to resurrection. The time in there I would be most interested in is Jesus' time praying in the Garden of Gethsemane.

Signing the Declaration of Independence. Bet those baws were fired up



That was probably anti-climatic.

Now, I would happily watch the Continental Congress debate the Declaration and have the final vote. I bet that was fascinating.

Relatively recent history: I would like to be a fly on the wall at The JFK assasination event, caveat being - I would already know what was about to happen and could watch the faces of people in the crowd, look for odd behaviors, and scan the Grassy Knoll and other areas of interest including the book depository just before and during the moments of the assassination, and afterwards.

Seems like there would be a high possibility there for disappointment if you are looking for a second gunman (mainly). But its yours, just saying.

Apollo 11


A new documentary--this 50th anniversary year-- was released March 1 to iMax, with wider release March 8.

Includes never before seen 70mm film footage. Reviews are solid so far.

Also, this cracks me up every time.

Two posters used assignation rather than assassination. No fake news.
