Roundhay Garden Scene

For me, there aren't that many real "holy shit" moments, but seeing this was one. This is a movie made in 1888, and no, that's not a typo. It's the oldest known moving image, and lasts all of two seconds.



H/t The House Next Door & The List Universe, where the entire list of Top 10 Incredible Early Firsts In Photography is well worth seeing.
