How do you burn down a city? Well, when that city is made of 100% wood it's not that difficult.
Has a bomb. Dumps paint thinner and lights with matches... What was the benefit of this demonstration? Removing blight I suppose lol.
Some information, such as this, should be kept private.
If someone wanted this information for malicious intent, they would find it easily elsewhere on the internet.
This information wasn't even particularly useful, gasoline would work just as well and is the most commonly used accelerent
Shows a "incendiary device" but only lights two bales of hay n old crack out bed with some turpentine.....? :/ ok. I was looking for ka-boom but oh well guess RUclips guidelines again )....: , lul
Aren't you being a pain smithsonian??
I hate how young they make that 13 yo look. My 13 yo son is 5’10 and though I don’t agree that boys should be conscripted, I see now how young boys could join the military especially if they look like my son does at 13, even if they aren’t as tall. I don’t doubt the boys who joined looked older than they are depicted here.
There were drummer boys as old as nine on the field. They were boys. Nobody gave a shit back then. Different era different thinking. Dont put your modern views on it. This was a time where breathing made you eligible.
Just to add there were no regulations regarding child labor at this time either. Many a child died in coal mines, whaling ships, naval works, and basic factory handworker jobs. All at minimal pay.They way we think of children is different from theirs.
