Liberian president Samuel Doe is stripped naked, beaten, and tortured to death. He had been taken hostage in Monrovia the previous day by rebels led by Prince Johnson. They capture the entire process on videotape, which soon becomes West Africa's most-watched snuff film. Most memorable moment: when they cut off one of Doe's ears and Johnson chews it up.
