The American Innovator – Day 14 Cambodia (Phnem Penn)
Paul Akers, of The American Innovator, spends day 14 visiting Phnem Penn, Cambodia. While there, he visited Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. The site is a former high school which was used as the notorious Security Prison 21 (S-21) by the Khmer Rouge regime from its rise to power in 1975 to its fall in 1979. Tuol Sleng was only one of at least 150 execution centers in the country, and as many as 20,000 prisoners there were later killed.
He captured it all using FastCap’s iPole, FastCam (Action Camera) and DJI’s Phantom 3. Please Note: The FastCam has been discontinued.
