/vhs/ - What is the most obscure vhs tape you own?

>>80147836

I dont own VHS anymore, but I remember having a VHS-trailer for Jogi Bear (1993).

I own a tape of some guy's ACL surgery

I had one of ultimate fights and When Animals Attack! It also included insect battles.

>>80148139
These were solely fights from classic films. I believe most of them were in colour.

soon none at all since they're all getting trashed due to not having been watched in a fewyears

Several random family's home movies. One is a Hindu wedding on it, the other belonged to some lil kids in the 90s who were making skating vids. There are SEVERAL takes of a young brown boy lip synching and dancing to Genesis - Misunderstanding and Van Halen's Right Now.

I buy old camcorders sometimes and they come with these tapes left in the bags...Its sad that people forgot about these memories that they were so intent on archiving....

I bought a used book online the other day and tucked inside of it was a Christmas photo of a family from 2008 and a hand written note to the kid who previously owned the book from his dying grandmother thanking him for helping her do things around the house and to always stay honest and work hard and how she loved him very much and pretty much saying goodbye to him. I fucking cried when I read it.

>>80151370
The tape from the Indian family probably ended up in my hands due to a death in the family because it came from an estate sale.

Right before I graduated from high school, I stole nearly all of the archived tapes from our broadcasting program.

This was 2010, so nobody had touched them in years due to our video announcements moving over to digital. The tapes were originals that were shot and cut during first period so they could air during second.
They're all nothing but your regular school news updates and some skits produced by the students (like one minute clips about dress code), but they go back to at least 1990.

What you mentioned in your post reminded me of that, and why people do stuff like search out old VCR recordings with the commercials still in them. These are moments lost in time that never really mattered much anyway, but it's still compelling to eavesdrop on the lives of others in their most insignificant moments.

>I have a tape from some defunct company about sports bloopers, simply called "sports blooper mania."

Sport blooper videos were fucking huge in the early 90s. Walmart had bins of them and every kid got that video for Christmas (or the more famous "not so great moments in sports" from HBO a few years earlier).

There are probably more copies of that tape of yours then there are of Star Wars out there.

They all had the same soundtrack from "blood sweat and tears" as they only paid for the rights to like 4 songs:

>insert VHS play tape
>WHAT GOES UP
>MUST COME DOWN
>SPINNING WHEEL
>GOT TO GO ROUND N ROUND

At like 1am there were infomercials sselling blooper videos and they showed the best parts of each tape. Mostly crushing football tackles and basketball backboards shattering. Terrible shit.

I gotta kick myself whenever I remember this, but the last VHS I ever owned and unfortunately lost was several weeks' worth of days and nights of Toonami and [adult swim] runs that somebody had long ago recorded for me on a tape when family and I had gone outside of the country and I was unable to keep up with my favorite Toonami and [as] comedy/anime series.

The tape was from the earlier days of the block, and it endlessly pisses me off that I lost it because there are at least a few people on YT and elsewhere online who do great remastering work on vintage recordings of oldschool Toonami and [adult swim] material, and upload it for maximum nostalgiafagging purposes for people such as myself who have some sort of affection for that stuff.

I'd've liked to have sent it to one of them for posterity, if nothing else.

kung pow: enter the fist

some like 30 minute cartoon called "the island of the hufflepumps" or some shit

Promotional tapes for stuff from Nintendo, Sega, and Sony for games like Banjo-Kazooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, one of the Crash Bandicoot games, Twisted Metal, MediEvil, and some Dreamcast games, as well as for the Dreamcast itself.

I also have some in-store tapes from Hollywood Video, the ones that they would play on the TV in the store that would show what's new and what's hot.

Got a whole bunch of tapes I've recorded myself of shows from the early to late 90s. At the time, a buddy of mine's parents were going through tight times, so he didn't have cable, so I used to tape a lot of shows he and I liked and just give him the tapes. Some of them have a lot of old Cartoon Network stuff, like High Noon Toons, but I don't think there's really that much that was aired on TV that isn't already online.

Technically, though, the rarest thing I have is some guy's wedding video that I got when I bought a box of tapes at a swap meet. Tried returning it but couldn't find the guy. I've had it for a while (since 2002) and I'm not sure what to do with it. I've toyed around with throwing it on Youtube or something with the title "Is this your wedding?" to maybe return it but I dunno how to rip a video and put it on Youtube. Plus: lazy.

I had "Les Dokuments interdits" (Prohibited Documents) on a VHS I couldn't tell was from some store or self recorded from TV, looked really fucking sketchy and weird.
A dozen amateur looking shorts (4-13 min) about bizarre and paranormal stuff, all fake of course. Didn't stop 10 year old me from shitting my pants though.

>The Divers (4 min 23 s). An indiscreet embassy unveils a terrifying reality.
>The Child (6 min 55 s). The strange life of Peter, seen through the documents filmed by his father ...
>The Ghosts (8 min 33 s). Until the territory of "Those that we do not name".
>The Shipwrecked (7 min). The journal of the only survivor of the shipwreck of Vega, witness of a supernatural phenomenon.
>The Picnic (5 min). The only amateur film about the Roaxaca Zone event.
>The Extra-Terrestrial (6 min 11 s). The secret about the Takohamo exchange.
>The Case Ferguson (13 min 22 s). The last night of one of the At Once teams.
>The Soldier (3 min 59 s). Sicily, a day of July 1943 ...
>The Crown films Young (9 min 43 s). A long life of archives ... the neighborhood, the neighbor, his murder ...
>The Mad of the crossroads (8 min 25 s). The document that Tibor Nagy swore to have filmed, during his abduction by an alien ship.
>The Witch (5 min). The partial reconstruction of a mysterious event.
>The Examination (19 min 3 s). The discovery of 110 Super 8 coils aimed at monitoring an East German family. This episode, after the previous 12 episodes, was performed in 2010 on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Arte chain.

I have a tape of my 8-year old self masturbating in the living room one Saturday morning.
After watching it, I realized that I taped over an elementary school choir concert that my parent's recorded of me.
I don't recall what I did with the tape. I either labeled it "Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" or something equally as inconspicuous, or I left it blank and hid it somewhere.
Either way, somewhere in my parent's house is legitimate child pornography of myself that I directed myself.
Fortunately, technology advanced and moved onto dvds, so I definitely dodged a bullet there.
