Treatment of prostitutes

1946. The war is over. In China, prostitutes were required to undergo a medical examination and, if venous diseases are detected, undergo a course of treatment. In the photo - an employee of the newly created UN is stabbing something to a worker of the sexual front

Mahatma Gandhi, at the age of 37, vowed to abstain from sexual life.

When he was over 70, he staged a "spiritual experiment", falling asleep in the same bed with young naked girls, including his great-niece.

The murder of a Vietnamese by the chief of the Saigon police, 1968

A photograph taken by Emmy Adams in 1968, in which an officer shoots a handcuffed prisoner in the head, not only won him the Pulitzer Prize in 1969, but also changed the Americans' perception of the Vietnam War in a not very pleasant way.

The world saw the atrocities, but in fact the prisoner was the leader of the "avengers" squad, who killed several dozen civilians on that very day. But few people know about this, and the shooter, General Nguyen Ngoc Loan, became an odious villain who was insulted in every possible way, poisoned and eventually died in poverty.

The 39th President of the United States, Jimmy Carter, once sent his jacket to the dry cleaners, forgetting in his pocket a cheat sheet with the codes for launching nuclear weapons.

On March 13, 1996, these guys had a regular physical education lesson when 43-year-old Thomas Hamilton broke in and opened fire on them with pistols, killing 16 children and one teacher.

After that, the man safely shot himself, going down in history as the first and only school shooter in the history of Great Britain.

This day in history is presented by Apple iPhone.

On June 29, 2007, the world was divided into "before" and "after". Steve Jobs has completely changed the mobile device market, which has been living according to the laws he created for all these 15 years.

The elephant Tai was caught in Zimbabwe and transported to the United States to work in a circus. In 1994, after 20 years of captivity and torture, Tai's patience reached its limit in Honolulu, where she broke through the barriers of the ring and quickly headed for the exit. She chased clowns and trainers, overturned cars and then broke out into the streets to escape from slavery.

The police shot her 86 times before she died. She was dying for 2 hours.

The next time they tell you that animals like to work in circuses - remember this photo, how much panic, pain and impotence there is in those eyes.

One of the main myths about knights is their clumsiness.

The armor of the Late Middle Ages was really heavy. But 20-30 kilograms, and even distributed throughout the body, is a fluff that any modern soldier will confirm. Moreover, the armor was adjusted according to the anatomy and they bent perfectly wherever needed. In general, the knight could run safely. The exception is tournament armor. They were made harder so that no one, God forbid, would be killed. But they also jogged around calmly.
