You're randomly required to listen to this! Still playing it on repeat.

This Father’s Day, here's my dad, visible at minute 4:43. In 1989, no one carried a camera in their pocket. These one and a half seconds are the only moving images I have of him.
I miss you, Dad. 🕯️

I'm so sorry for your loss, Hitcore. The pain never goes away, does it? At least you managed to find this clip with him in it.

It's true you know, personal video cameras just weren't a thing back then. It took the smartphone revolution for this to happen and now the average Joe can film at 4K120 with a high end smartphone. Incredible how far we've come.

I offer my condolences - the pain from the loss of a loved one never fades, never to be forgotten :(

Thank you both, @Retro and @AllThingsTech .
It was a long time ago. But I'll always carry it deep within. Father's Day always kinda sucks for me. But I am happy to see others having great times with their dads.

Yep. Of course in the 80s and 90s you had those camcorders, but usually they were chunky, heaps expensive, and you'd pretty much only see them at very special occasions, at like weddings, where there would be just literally one dude going around recording the event.

Yeah, not exactly pocket sized.
