Eddie Adams was the camera man who took the picture then this man came out of no where and shot the prisoner's head by no reason. American TV was left surprised because the innocent prisoner was handcuffed behind and this man came out from nowhere he didn't even know, then he got shot in the head. When he got on the floor, the supporters wouldn't support this anymore because he was killed on American TV. Although there was an impact from the video because in the video it happens in a second and we can see him going ont he floor and we can see blood coming out of him and the cameras taking pictures of his dead body and the man acted like nothing had happened. This is becoming common but this is the first time it is on TV.
The still picture had a greater impact over the video because the picture was more clear than the video because the picture shows more details of his face, more drama and more detailed. It showed America what was happening in Vietnam and shocked the American people.
