Videos show bin Laden watching himself on TV

Newly released videos show Osama bin Laden inside his hideout, watching himself on television and rehearsing videos.

The videos, released by U.S. intelligence officials Saturday, were offered as further proof that Navy SEALs killed the world's most wanted person this weeo. But they also served to show bin Laden as vain, someone obsessed with his portrayal by the world's media.

One of the movies shows bin Laden, wrapped in a brown blanket and holding a remote control, flipping back and forth between clips of himself.

The videos were seized from bin Laden's compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
