I was 'unwitting baby victim of terrorists in crowd'
There was a documentary on television about 10 years ago that discussed a bombing of a shopping centre that happened about 15 years before that.

Wanting to be authentic they nabbed some generic CCTV footage of shoppers from round about that time to use, and there I was! being pushed around in my pram by a (I can only presume) unconcious-of-the-tragedy-about-to-befall-us-all mummy, staring into a nearby shop window.

The highlight had to be when they later superimposed some terribly (un)realistic flames onto the same footage, just to emphasise their point.
I burned beautifully, even if I do say so myself.

So realistic was my unwitting performance that apparently my grandma even called that night to make sure we were okay.
Despite the bad photoshopping.
And the fact the documentary was about something that happened 15 years before. And we were both 10 years younger in the film.

And she'd seen us that afternoon.
