For what ever reason that might be,
say you want to deactivate your facebook account for good but still want to keep those photos & videos & comments & etc.. then you may want to download everything that you have posted before on Facebook, to your computer. Facebook has this service, "

3. Enter your Facebook password.

Check your email and open the "Your download is ready" mail.

6. Click
Download Now. It may take some time depending on the file size and your internet connection speed. In my case, the file to be downloaded was 284 megabytes.
7. After download completed, you will get the .zip file. As for me, I got facebook-ramzul.zip. Extract it using any of your favorite archiver program (WinZip or Winrar or 7zip or anything).
8. Go to extracted folder, run the
index.html file. It will load on your web browser.
Voila! Your Facebook data has been backed up to your computer. Cheers!
