Surely it is editing.. The video editor could of taken any color video from World War 2 of a sailor shooting the BAR and Tommy Gun and placed it in front of the other clips of the Japanese. I pray that it is it..

Maybe.. maybe not. Who knows? But, there are documented incidents where survivors were shot.

That same footage has been used here in the past to argue Japanese survivors were murdered......and was inconclusive I must say. It is too easy to edit film to portray the perception your supportive of.

Why would somebody want to edit it ? 2:53 clearly shows how a soldier with a pistol in hand shoots at survivor..

IMO it is not a fake untill it is prooved to be so.

Yea this one pops up from time to time and bandied back and forth with no real resolution.

Even if it is edited, it's certainly not a pleasure to watch, and yeah the music is bad. I didn't watch the whole video because of the sequence of the sailors shooting at whatever...

Btw: something which has always bothered me in those WW2 videos about subs, how do they take pictures of the sub diving from the stern of the sub? I mean that's surely no footage of a sub on a mission. Yeah it looks cool and all that, but it doesn't really add to the video. Would be much cooler to see the one who stands with the camera on the conning tower, in the other scenes, rushing down the ladder and seeing the hectic in the command room after he's down.
