Anna Nicole Smith's Last Moments Fetch $500,000

Fox News is reporting that a two-minute tape showing the last moments of Anna Nicole Smith's life has been purchased from Splash Media for $500,000. As of this moment, there is no word on who bought it. I can't believe someone is actually interested in airing this footage. But looking at the description provided, it doesn't seem like there is much to look at anyway. I would hate to have images of Anna's lifeless body plastered all over the Internet.

The two-minute tape, shot from three different angles from a distance of about 50 feet, shows Smith's sheet-covered body, with an oxygen mask over her face, being taken out of the Hard Rock Hotel by a gaggle of emergency responders, including paramedics and police. "You cannot see her face, you cannot see hair flowing out from underneath the mask," Spinder said. "Again if someone didn't tell me this was Anna Nicole Smith, I totally would not have known it. You can't even tell it's a woman."The video shows footage of the ambulance driving away from the hotel under a police escort, then cuts to the ambulance at Memorial Regional Hospital just after 2 p.m. ET Thursday. "You do not see the ambulance pull into the hospital, and you do not see the body come out of the back of the ambulance," Spinder said. "You just see the ambulance sitting there.
"One would assume that the cameraman got there after the body had already been unloaded from the ambulance and was already in the hospital at that point," he said.
