Muhammad Ali & Mike Tyson
Muhammad Ali is considered one of the greatest boxers ever, if not THE greatest. Saying that, Mike Tyson is not far behind. They fought at different times and never opposed each other. This rare photo of Ali and Tyson was published on Tyson’s Instagram page. All he wrote was “Still a Fan,” which basically says it all.
During their careers, Ali fought in over 500 rounds, while Tyson participated in only 200. Muhamad Ali was known as one whose aim was to knock down and embarrass his opponent. They are incomparable; however, each left a significant mark on American sports history.
Sarah Silverman's Headshot
The differences between back then and nowadays headshots are significant. Just by looking at the famous one of Sarah Silverman, it is clear that a lot of progress has been made in photography and in Hollywood. Saying that some things remain exactly the same.
It was never easy for young actors to get cast during auditions, so they had to go through the hard way like all the others before they became famous. They regularly heard the word NO much more than they did the word YES and. This image is a headshot of Sarah Silverman, who said that she remembered the day this was taken very clearly. The photographer gave her his blazer so she looked more mature.
The Karshorter Racecourse
In this photo, German soldiers try to practice at the Karshorter Racecourse in Berlin in 1935. In fact, they did not only train themselves, but they also trained their horses to stay still and not be disturbed by the sound of gunshots. This was only to make sure that they did not end up panicking during combat.
Although standing on the horse's saddle with both feet was not a common act, they usually kept one foot in a stirrup. When mechanized warfare following WWI was introduced, soldiers no longer had any use for their horses. However, the German reign and the Soviets still used millions of horses in their military operations in WWII.
Disguise
This image was created by the American makeup artist Eddie Senz. She is best known for her uncompromising work on many Hollywood movies, including "Invisible Avenger" and "The Light Ahead.". She is also known for her remarkable work on the portrait of the former German chancellor.
The top left photo is the original image of the country leader, and the rest are the same image, just doctored. This was done several years after the Second World War ended, giving OSS agents an idea of what he could have looked like under disguise. The former German leader took his own life after being hunted by the Russian troops.
Muhammad Ali
Muhammad Ali was no doubt one of the greatest boxers of all time. Before he became who he was, he was named Cassius Clay, a young man from Louisville, Kentucky, who was destined for great things. In this rare photo, we see him training and posing underwater at the Sir John Hotel in Miami in 1961.
Muhamad Ali was also known as "The Greatest," and even to this day, he is regarded as one of the most significant sportsmen of the 20th century. The man who started off as an amateur boxer at the age of 12 changed the way people saw boxing and left us with the wonderful quat; "Float like a butterfly. Sting like a bee. You can't hit what your eyes don't see."
