Last footage of Godzilla actor Haruo Nakajima (RIP) wearing the monster suit

Japanese actor Haruo Nakajima who rocked the Godzilla suit in a dozen movies died on Monday at age 88. Above is the last video of Nakajima as Godzilla for a 1983 photo shoot. From Nakajima's obituary in the New York Times:

One might regard him as a symbol of Japanese hate for the destruction that came out of nowhere and descended upon Hiroshima one pleasant August morn, The New York Times wrote of the monster in a 1956 review of Godzilla: King of the Monsters, the English-dubbed version of the film released in North America. But we assure you that the quality of the picture and the childishness of the whole idea do not indicate such a calculation. Godzilla was simply meant to scare people.
