i agree with others that the swearing ruined it, and really, discredited an otherwise wonderful depiction. it just makes you seem like you're trying way too hard to get a laugh, which is never flattering.
@wiseguy430@beckyclay You had it right in the video, IF the fire was between the people and the wall then not only would the people's shadows not be on the wall but the people would be able to experience/see the fire. The idea of these people's entire reality being the shadows cast on the wall relies on them not being able to see anything else.
@markb1994 I was referring to the fire being flipped with the people making shadow puppets (the people that are all the way to the right). The fire should be behind them so that shadows are able to be cast on the wall. Huge oversight on my part - my apologies!
If a tree were never spoke of, and the slave never saw a tree...how could he know anything about a tree? Like a young puppy, he has to touch it to know its harmless. He'd have to eat a fruit to know its good. Somebody would have to tell him of the word tree.
pretty much the picture of modern society / no changes in ~2500 years.

@wiseguy430 Hi wiseguy430, you are right :) The fire and the people should be flipped.
