Yes, that's a midget. The man controlling the boombox is one of India's biggest stars of the 1970s and 1980s, Rajnikanth. So the next point should be obvious, but this little snippet was taken from a 1986 movie titled Maaveran.

In 1967, McDonald's was such a happy place.

This will take you back!



Also in 1967, the Vietnam War was going on, the Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl, the American Basketball Association was formed, Nirvana's Kurt Cobain was born, Jimmy Hoffa began an 8-year sentence for attempted bribery of a jury, the first Boeing 737 took its maiden flight, and Muhammad Ali refused to join the military.

Elvis and Priscilla got married in 1967 as well. Linda Rondstadt released her first single, Different Drum, with The Stone Poneys. It was also the year the Beatles released Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. So...what are your memories of 1967?
