    "sup guys. i'ma teach y'all how to make this new rat trap, now all you need is this fancy kind of rock and some tools you can improvise. alternatively you could have a knife and a drill and other metal tools. but if all ya got is a rock, I got you bruh."

    I loved the fact that the rats weren't bothered by this trap, normally they sense the man made materials and stay clear, but because this was all natural it sort of worked.

Came with curiosity, left with wisdom, thank you for branching out for knowledge all over the world :)

    You should look up videos of a British Show called Time Team. There a group of archeologists who explore British historical sites to find out all they can with a limit of 3 days. One of the archeologists is a master flint knapper. He's amazing to watch. He can recreate a tool within a few minutes and prove how well they work. I think you might like it.
