I see you mount on the wall and a part on the TV.Â* How do you put them

Not really any of my business, but is there a good reason to

wall mount I would have to patch the wall.

I still don't understand why people "have to" mount their TVs above a
fireplace. The heat is probably no good for the TV and you have to keep
your head looking way up. I was watching a home show the other night
where they put a TV above a really tall fireplace. It was totally
crazy. My preference is to have the TV so you look straight out from
your main watching spot.
