Studying history helps us understand how past events have shaped the present. We not only learn about ourselves and how we came to be but also develop the ability to avoid mistakes and create better paths for our societies.

So, join us in taking a look at the Twitter account 'Historic Vids.' It shares daily lessons supplemented with vibrant images that perfectly illustrate them. Whether it's a secret photo of Stalin dealing with the news that Nazis invaded the Soviet Union or a portrait of a regular family during the Spanish flu, they will definitely broaden your horizons.

I read that he had a reunion with the turtles from Rocky, Cuff and Link, a couple of years ago

That's the face I make when I drink Coca-Cola, I'm a Pepsi-Cola person though.

It should have ended right there. Now you have millions of diabetics… Coca Cola started it all

I still make this face. I hate soft drinks for the most part.

They should have sold wine in little bottles instead of Soda

Me, too. It felt like battery acid going down my throat. The last sip was probably in 1960.

I love the cut of his coat and the pattern of his vest. Boss moves, sartorially speaking.

My face looks like that when I realise that there's no Bacardi or Disarrono in my coke

I had some coca-cola today, for the first time in decades. It was horrible.

Hate the way they turn these photos black and white to make it seem oldtimey, when it's in colour in the 80s.

My grandmother had one of those in her house. It's for warming gloves and socks, not bread

The photo is "blind girl" taken in Hiroshima by Christer Strömholm. He took haunting pictures of the victims of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. The close-up of a blind girl with scars on her face is surely the most well known of the series. Once seen, it is never forgotten. Like most of Strömholm’s photographs, this one seems unpolished and shadowed, since it was taken spontaneously and in the light available. Using the existing light was a central credo to him. Disturbingly, Strömholm confronts the viewer with a reality that is taboo and all too eagerly repressed. He lets the viewer experience unadorned human suffering without compromising the dignity of those he portrays. The girl stayed anonymous..The photo is often claimed to show the face of a girl blinded by the nuclear bomb. This seems unlikely, since the girl appears younger than 18 years. It is also possible that the photo was taken earlier but not published until 1963.

Revealing her vagina would have had serious irreversible health consequences. You might be talking about vulva perhaps?

Very healthy diets these tribal people had. I'm sure it's the same with New Guinea tribes as well. (Look it up. It's very good for inducing insomnia and waking nightmares.) I think one of the rockerfellers was their "guest" too.

Sunscreen people! All jokes aside that's an impressive age to live to and I bet he had some stories to tell.

Legend has it that Frank secretly resented Dean Martin because Dean could just show up and smooooth out songs while Frank worked his asss off..... Dean Martin was LEAGUES better than Sinatra, imo, and less of an assshole...... though Frank did have his moments of going to bat for folks, especially Sammy....

If that was actual bone growth around the spike then he survived for some time after injury. Can't speculate how long he could have lived or how mentally and physically challenged he would have been. If it is just museum repair job to hold spike in place, then it would mean he did not survive injury.
