This is the first video I ever posted to YouTube (November 4th, 2015 - five years ago). Seemed appropriate for my first post to Rumble.

Upon watching Charlie Chaplin's iconic monologue from the 1940 film "The Great Dictator" (a double entendre), I noticed he was speaking at exactly 128 BPM, so I added some music, which is original minus the theme from Beethoven's "Ode an die Freude," better known as "Ode to Joy."

The additional clips are from a film I felt captured the same idea from a different angle - Benny pickling The Beast from "The Sandlot."

"Let us advance on chaos and the dark" is from Emerson's "Self-Reliance."
