VHS tape surprise

(1/3) > >>

dre-w:
So, I decided to take a break from my ps1 & dreamcast trick method at the swapmeet since now my collection has increased to 328 games in the span of only a few months..  and take on this new hobby at the swapmeet.  Looking for old VHS tapes people used to record tv shows/cartoons back in the 80s & 90s.  Mainly just for the obscure stuff that was never released on dvd and also for the nostalgic commercials.

Anyways, I picked up one for 50 cents that read "teenage mutant ninja turtles II & OC news" ..I fig'd ehh, maybe there's some good commercials in between.. popped it in the vcr when I got home and there was some funny stuff like this joe dirt lookin karate instructor with a epic mullet doing a demonstration on the news.. But what's crazy is I get about halfway through TMNT2 only to find the rest is recorded over with a family vacation to Disneyland in 1998.  And then after filming their day at the park they go to some hotel party at Disneyland... It's so weird and creepy watching some random family enjoying their trip and acting all goofy.. But it makes this hobby even more interesting!  Never know what you're going to find on one of these tapes lol

Anyone else have/hear any similar stories of finding weird stuff recorded on a VHS tape they picked up?

BadMouth:

creepy.

ChadTower:

Is this people you know or just some random strangers?

BadMouth:
I was thinking it would be interesting to load them onto youtube and see if anyone in them happens to come accross it.

That lead me to another thought. 
Who owns the rights to the video?  Could you legally use it for commercial purposes?

Gray_Area:
Creepy?  I find it abso-humorous that, whether the program content is fictional, people watch anything in any medium to essentially gawk at people, and yet think such weird things in cases like this. Hell, I was hoping maybe the story was going to turn into, 'then they went to this hotel and.....' or 'hotel party and....' and something like Bachelor Party happened, or better. Sheesh.
