Snatch grip, would you recommend it? I was curious about it, looking into the darkness of humanity.

I would. Don't expect to leave feeling good, but it's an interestingly made doc and crazy to see the things that people can make themselves feel good about. You'll see what I mean, but the "bad guys" in the doc are actually quite likable, which drives it home even more that the people that do these things are just like you and me, yet have somehow convinced themselves that what they have done is ok, even good.
