CRAZY BUT VERY LETHAL OF HISTORY

in #english8 years ago

Since the world was a world, human beings have been especially creative in their search for ways to eliminate their fellow human beings. At other times we have talked about huge weapons. Today it is the turn to the most extravagant and crazy historical slope of these tools of destruction.

*Pistols-harmonic

Instead of a load drum such as that of revolvers, these pistols invented by J. Jarre between 1859 and 1862 bet on a linear loader arranged horizontally, as a harmonica

*Operation Acoustic Kitty

With a budget of $ 20 million, this shameful and absurd project sought to turn cats into surveillance devices. For this the animal was subjected to a surgical intervention in which a small microphone was implanted in the ear attached to a radio transmitter and a feeding system. In the first field test they found a problem: cats do not go where they are told, but where they want. The project was canceled in 1967.

*Gustav and Dora

We talked about them in our collection of huge weapons, but they deserve to appear in this too. Not always are two guns capable of firing ammunition of 7 tons to kilometers of distance.

*The flashlight-gun

The secret services of North Korea used this modified LED flashlight that, instead of lighting, could shoot three small-caliber projectiles.

*The kiss of death, a pistol-lipstick

This 4.5mm caliber weapon was hidden in a lipstick. She was used by female KGB agents, and fired a single shot.

*Bulgarian umbrella

This was the name with which this modified umbrella was known to house a weapon that fired capsules with poison. It was used by the KGB and the Bulgarian Secret Service

*Dyson Le Petit

It's a six-bullet revolver that was worn like a ring. Its caliber was diminutive (5 mm) and its precision probably was terrible by the almost total absence of cannon.
