00:18Gory stories, we do that, and your host a talking rat. The past is no longer a mystery. Welcome to Horrible Histories.
00:31Horrible Histories presents Twisted Technology.
00:37Welcome to my workshop, where I've invented some of the greatest rodent tech of all time.
00:43Like the Inter-Rat, where you can use Snap-Rat and Rat-Zap to squeak to your friends online, or share funny cat videos, or as we call them in the rat world, Horror Films.
00:57Yes, technology is all around us, even in your home, from your computer, to the lightbulbs, to the lock on your front door.
01:05All of them were cutting-edge tech when they were first invented, although it took a bit of time to perfect them.
01:15Itsy darling, hurry up, I'd like to make a call on my brand new mobile phone. Yes, I'm very successful.
01:22The weight of this thing is killing me. Oh, come on. How bad can it be?
01:30What's that? Gosh, the bit on the weighty side, isn't it?
01:34Oh, it's over five kilos. It weighs about the same as a fully grown cat.
01:39But it's so wonderful to be out and about and able to communicate.
01:42Don't mind me, I'm just making a call to somebody in Bristol.
01:46The other side of the country. Right here, in the street.
01:51Ow, ow, ow. I'm OK.
01:53I'm OK. Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.
01:58Hello, Brenda.
02:00It's not you, Itsy.
02:02Yes, no, it's me, Gwendolyn. I'm just calling you from the streets of London on my brand new mobile phone.
02:09Hello, hello.
02:11I think the signal's gone.
02:13Hello, hello, hello, hello.
02:15Oh, there you are.
02:17Yes, no, it's ever so convenient, actually.
02:19Yes, it did cost a lot of money, actually.
02:21Almost as much as a luxury holiday.
02:23But it's so great not to be stuck at home with a boring normal phone.
02:27I know.
02:29Brenda? Brenda?
02:31Hello?
02:33It's out of batteries.
02:35Battery life only lasts 35 minutes.
02:38What?
02:39We could go back home and charge it, if you like.
02:41But it's supposed to be mobile. What's the point?
02:43I'll go and get the car.
02:45No, because I have to sell the car to pay for the phone.
02:49No, we'll just... just walk.
02:51Here we go.
02:57Hello, Robert Dudley, my favourite Earl of Leicester.
03:00To what does one owe the pleasure?
03:02Your Majesty, I have brought you a New Year's gift.
03:07Press even little on me.
03:09Well, it's too small to be a castle.
03:12Doesn't sound like a new country.
03:15It's... oh, what is it?
03:17It's an arm watch.
03:19One of the very first of its kind in England.
03:22It's a beautiful bracelet with a teeny clock inside.
03:27Why?
03:28Well, it means that you'll know the time no matter where you go.
03:33I already know the time.
03:35When I wake up this morning.
03:37When my tummy rumbles, it's yum-yum time.
03:40And when I yawn, it's like the bed.
03:42No rumbles yet. Give it about an hour, Thomas.
03:45With this arm watch, you'll know when an hour has passed.
03:49If I were to ask you to meet me for a stroll in the gardens
03:52at, say, ten in the morning, you'd know when to meet me.
03:56Then how will you know what time to meet me for this stroll in the gardens?
04:00Well, I suppose, like everyone else,
04:02I'd have to walk into the town and look at the town clock.
04:05Of course, it would take me a little time to walk back.
04:08Then you'd better not be late for tomorrow, Robert Dudley.
04:12It's incredibly expensive.
04:16Covered in diamonds and rubies.
04:19Everyone's going to be totes jelly.
04:22Why didn't you say so? I'll keep it.
04:25Charles? Yes, Your Majesty?
04:27You're late. Take him to the tower.
04:30What? Why?
04:32Should have got yourself an arm watch, mate.
04:34I guess he sort of watched out.
04:36Oh, very good.
04:39Welcome to Bletchley Park.
04:41I'm Thomas Flowers, principal engineer and designer of Colossus,
04:45the world's first electronic computer.
04:47During the Second World War, with the help of the Colossus,
04:50we were able to crack German army codes
04:52so we could read their secret messages,
04:54and that helped us win the war.
04:57OK, I'll just go and get the printer.
05:00OK.
05:02Right.
05:04The machines even printed out the codes for us.
05:07But tell me, what was the problem with the Colossus No. 7's printer?
05:11Did it, A, always run out of ink,
05:14B, whizz across the room every time it printed,
05:17or C, give off an eggy smell?
05:20The answer is B.
05:22The printer's motion was so fierce
05:24that it made the machine shuffle across the room until it unplugged itself.
05:30It happened so much we had to tie it down with these ropes.
05:34Oh, I probably should have tied that down before I switched it on, shouldn't I?
05:40When you think of cutting-edge technology,
05:43you might think of 3D printers, electric bikes, or a sausage pen.
05:49It's both a pen and a sausage.
05:52I invented that one.
05:54Yes, our homes are filled with technology
05:56that people from history would think was really bougie.
06:00Some of it was deliberately designed to solve problems,
06:03but other things were discovered completely by accident.
06:06It's a sausage and a pen. It's never been done before.
06:12Dr Percy Spencer?
06:14Yes?
06:15This had better be a major breakthrough in military technology, Doctor.
06:18I have an hour and 45 minutes until my jacket potato is ready for lunch.
06:22Then I think you'll be glad you came, sir. Recognise this?
06:25Ah, yes, the Cavalty Magnetron.
06:28Hmm. I bet it's a kit that uses a type of radiation called microwaves
06:32to detect enemy aircraft and ships.
06:34I've read the briefing, Doctor.
06:36But last night, sir, I was working next to the Magnetron
06:39when something curious happened.
06:44What are you looking at?
06:46Oh, I was just remembering something.
06:48I was working late in my lab.
06:50Unknown to me, the Magnetron was still on.
06:54I felt a tingling sensation run through my entire body.
06:59Once the tingling stopped,
07:01I was left with something warm, soft, brown in my pocket.
07:05Is this really something you want to be sharing?
07:08Absolutely. It had a familiar smell, but I still couldn't be sure.
07:12So I did what any good scientist would do.
07:16Ew! Gross!
07:17No, sir, I was talking about chocolate.
07:19Chocolate?
07:20I had a bar in my back pocket and it melted. Why? What did you think?
07:23No, look, what I'm trying to say here, sir,
07:25is the microwaves emitted from the Magnetron
07:28heated the chocolate in my pocket and cooked it.
07:31And it works on stuff like corn as well.
07:33Here, sir, you'll want to brace yourself.
07:35Brace myself for what?
07:37Oh, you'll see.
07:39We're taking fire!
07:40No, sir. We're making popcorn.
07:43I believe I've invented some kind of cooking machine.
07:46Fascinating.
07:47It seems to heat things up much, much faster than with a traditional oven.
07:51So no more waiting for your lunchtime jacket potato.
07:54Oh, I'd have to take this to the Joint Chiefs.
07:56Oh, my microwave cooker?
07:58No, popcorn. I love snacks.
08:00What else can this thing do?
08:01Well, I was just about to try it out with an egg.
08:14Less time for egg.
08:18Watch and learn, Grover.
08:21Yes?
08:22Madam, I'm Hubert Cecil Booth of the Vacuum Cleaner Company Limited,
08:26and I'm here to offer you the opportunity of a lifetime.
08:30Let me introduce Puffing Billy,
08:33the first petrol-powered vacuum cleaner,
08:36available to you for just a small fee.
08:39Oh, how exciting.
08:41Switch on her five-horsepower engine
08:43and she will suck the dirt right out of your house.
08:48Oh!
08:53Well, I suppose it does seem effective.
08:55Do come in.
08:58Madam, today's your lucky day.
09:00I've sold machines like this to the German Emperor William II,
09:03Tsar Nicholas II of Russia,
09:05and Sultan Abdul Hamid in Constantinople.
09:09Oh, gosh, that is impressive.
09:11Turn her on, Grover.
09:12Right you are, boss.
09:15Oh, it's doing a wonderful job.
09:17Yeah, I came up with the idea by sucking dirt from a chair
09:20through some cloth with my mouth, like this.
09:23Oh, please don't do that.
09:25Sorry.
09:26How about paying us to do the whole house?
09:28We could start at the bottom and go all the way up to the top.
09:31All the way up to the top.
09:33Full power it is, boss.
09:34Oh, no. Oh, no.
09:39Just a few teeth in troubles.
09:40This didn't happen when my invention
09:42cleaned Westminster Abbey for King Edward VII's coronation.
09:47Captain Peck!
09:48Turn it off! Turn it off!
09:50It's already on full.
09:52What's going on?
09:57Well, I think we can agree the room is spotless.
10:04Boss, I think we've got a blockage.
10:06You don't say.
10:08Hmm.
10:11Ah, Gladys, you're back.
10:14I trust you had a smashing vacation.
10:17I did. Thank you, ma'am.
10:19And I just wanted to apologise for chipping the china on the day I left.
10:23Think no more on it.
10:25Are you sure you're not mad at me, ma'am?
10:27No, no. It was just my best 350-year-old priceless family china.
10:34It's just the other maid said you had a rather extreme reaction.
10:38Would one call inventing a whole machine that washes dishes
10:41just so you can't break them anymore extreme?
10:44You invented a dish-washing machine?
10:47It was either that or I do the dishes myself,
10:50which would have been extreme.
10:52What exactly does this dish-washing machine of yours do?
10:57It washes dishes.
10:58It removes dirt and the possibility of clumsy human beings smashing my crockery.
11:05Don't smash that soup!
11:07I just wanted to see how it worked.
11:09It's simply a wheel mounted inside a copper boiler
11:14which gently turns the delicate dishes through the soapy water
11:19instead of smashing them together like an angry cavewoman,
11:24which I can only assume is your technique.
11:27People adore my idea.
11:29I've already had several orders from hotels and restaurants.
11:33It might be the first commercially successful dishwasher in history.
11:37I expect I will be quite rich.
11:39As long as you're not angry, I shall go about my duties.
11:44Excellent.
11:45Of course, those duties will no longer include dish-smashing.
11:48You mean dish-washing.
11:50I know what I mean.
11:53Did you know computers were invented thousands of years ago?
11:56Well, kind of.
11:57Come on, give me 20 seconds.
11:59I'll convince you.
12:00Ready?
12:01Go!
12:02Charles Babbage invented the first thing you recognise as a computer,
12:05the analytical engine, back in 1833.
12:07It was used for calculations.
12:09The first calculator was made in 1623
12:11and thousands of years before that, they used abacuses.
12:14And even before the abacus came the eschango bone,
12:16which was from about 20,000 years ago
12:18and might well have been used for counting and calculating.
12:20So in a way, that makes it a kind of computer.
12:24Where's Daddy's little princess?
12:26Here, I've got a surprise for you.
12:29Oh, Dad, you haven't.
12:31It isn't.
12:32It is.
12:33Come on.
12:35I got you your very own eschango bone.
12:39Yeah, or what you kids like to call it, eye bone, innit?
12:42Thanks, Dad.
12:43It's just I was kind of hoping for the eye bone five.
12:46What? There's nothing wrong with a four.
12:48This eschango bone is top-notch technology, no?
12:50Literally, bare notches.
12:52Look, 168 etchings.
12:54It's just I was kind of holding out for the one
12:56with the extra notches on the side.
12:58No, you don't need extra notches on the side.
13:00Look, you've got the lines there that you can count
13:02and do your times tables.
13:03Mm, OK.
13:04Look, look, two rows there that add up to 60
13:07and then one in the middle that adds up to 48.
13:10You could use it to count the phases of the moon.
13:12Is that the biggest one they had?
13:14Listen, this is genuine baboon fibula.
13:18Mm, straight from the baboon's leg.
13:21Mm.
13:22It's just my friend said that it's difficult to spot
13:24the difference between the baboon's one and the knock-off.
13:27This one has got the quartz fixed to the end.
13:30Yeah, so you could do your engravings in there.
13:33Aw, thanks, Dad, I love it!
13:36I know how you young people love your latest gadgets and that.
13:40But I'll probably just use it for games and stuff.
13:43Pow, pow, pow! Take that!
13:45Look at her, she loves it.
13:47Notches and bones, eh? What will they think of next?
13:52Watch out for the angry one-legged baboon!
13:56Welcome to Historical Dragons' Den,
13:58where inventors from history come to pitch their creations
14:01to our modern business dragons.
14:06Our dragons are looking to put their own money into the right project
14:10and the first historical inventor before them is Nikola Tesla.
14:13An early pioneer of electricity,
14:15can his new bit of tech shock them into investing?
14:18Hello, dragons.
14:23I don't know I did that. Sorry.
14:25So, Mr Tesla, I've heard lots of exciting things
14:28about your work with electric motors and how to power them.
14:31Have you got something electrifying for us today?
14:34I certainly have. You're my favourite.
14:38Presenting the mechanical oscillator,
14:40powered by compressed air.
14:43Ta-da!
14:44What does it do?
14:45Allow me to demonstrate using one of the greatest American novelists.
14:49It's Mr Mark Twain.
14:52Hello, dragons. Nikola.
14:54Can Tesla's vibrating machine shake our dragons into investing?
15:02I'd shake you by the hand, Mr Twain, but you've shaken enough already.
15:06It is a very pleasant sensation.
15:09It gives you vigour and vitality.
15:11Certainly gives me something.
15:12You'll see the genius of my machine any minute now.
15:16Is there a toilet nearby? As in very nearby?
15:20It's just over there.
15:22Although, from the sounds of it, I think it might be too late.
15:26So, you've invented a machine that makes famous novelists poo themselves.
15:29That's right. Now, who wants to invest?
15:32Like the contents of Mr Twain's bottom, I'm out.
15:35A blow for Tesla. With Deborah out, will Peter or Sarah invest in his poo platform?
15:41Does it do anything else?
15:43What else does it need to do?
15:44It is fantastic.
15:45Would any of you like to try it out?
15:47I'll give it a try.
15:48Sit down, Peter.
15:49No.
15:50No one wants to see a dragon poop on TV.
15:52With the greatest of respect, I'm out too.
15:56Oh, no, no, no, no, Mr Twain. That's not the toilet. That's the lift.
16:02It's too late.
16:03Oh, anyone invented self-cleaning pads?
16:08A vibrating poo platform. I'd invest.
16:11Sadly, that bit of tech isn't still around.
16:14But a lot of old technology is, like the bow and arrow.
16:19Still used today, this game-changing bit of kit was invented to make hunting easier in prehistoric times.
16:28Sire, I think you'll be impressed.
16:31I've invented a new weapon that will revolutionize hunting.
16:34Oh, exciting.
16:35I started with a small, sharpened piece of bow.
16:38But that is tiny. You'll never catch a lion with this.
16:41Look.
16:43Did that hurt?
16:44Well, a little bit. No, it didn't.
16:46Okay, but I hadn't finished. You see, next, I glued it to the end of a piece of wood.
16:50Ah, you're wasting your time. Look, this is the smallest spear I've ever seen.
16:55You'll never catch a vicious beast with this child's toy.
16:57Look.
16:59Did that hurt?
17:00It hurt quite a lot, actually.
17:01No, again.
17:02What if I said I could hurl this tiny spear a vast distance and hit a target using this?
17:08Interesting.
17:09Let me have a go.
17:15Ah, useless.
17:16This will never catch a leopard.
17:18I wouldn't be so sure.
17:19Watch me, sire.
17:20Ooh, impressive.
17:24So, hold it like this.
17:26Right.
17:29Ow, sire.
17:30I would have hit the target if it didn't get in the way.
17:32Let me have another go.
17:33Ah, I think I'll stand over here.
17:36Okay.
17:37This is the one.
17:38Fire.
17:42It's broken.
17:43Ah.
17:44Try again, but round the other way.
17:46The other way.
17:48Where is it?
17:51I mean the ball round the other way.
17:53Yes.
17:54No, no, no.
17:55I'm getting out of here.
18:01Look, it's bound to take a bit of getting used to.
18:03A bit.
18:04I'm pretty sure I'm getting the hang of this now.
18:07Oh, yes.
18:08Oh, yes.
18:09Oh, yes.
18:10Oh, yes.
18:11Oh, yes.
18:12Oh, yes.
18:13Oh, yes.
18:14Oh, yes.
18:15Oh, yes.
18:16Please, please, please, please, please, please.
18:19You did it.
18:23Amazing.
18:24You have invented a tool that can fire small spears.
18:27I call it a bow and arrow.
18:30The bow and arrow.
18:32Actually, the other way, but it doesn't matter.
18:39Hey there, peasant farmer.
18:40Oh, hi.
18:41What are you doing creeping about like that?
18:43Sorry.
18:44A bit nervous, you see.
18:45First day as a salesman.
18:47Right.
18:49Hello, sir, slash, madam.
18:51I wanted to see if you were interested in the offer of a lifetime.
18:54I'm busy.
18:55I have to till these fields before sundown and it takes ages with these tools.
18:59I have to plant the seed or we won't have grain and my children will starve.
19:02That's exactly why I'm here.
19:03You want to adopt Kenny?
19:04What?
19:05No, no, no, no, no, no.
19:06Have a try.
19:07I want to sell you something.
19:08It's called the plough.
19:11Can't eat that.
19:12It's made out of wood.
19:13You don't eat this.
19:14Come on with it.
19:15A demonstration of the tech of the future.
19:17So, you drag it like this.
19:20The spike digs out a channel behind you and you just drop in the seeds as you go.
19:25Now, the plough uses a highly scientific concept known as pulling.
19:29All right, if this plough is so good, why haven't I heard of it before?
19:33Plough.
19:34Pullay.
19:35Plough.
19:36Say it with me. Plough.
19:37Pullay.
19:38We'll work on it.
19:39It's only just been invented.
19:40You know what?
19:41Let me just show you how good this plough really is.
19:43Fine, but I don't think it's going to work.
19:45See how easy this is?
19:47You can do this field in seconds, eh?
19:49Oh, no, I'm still not convinced, you know.
19:53Might need a longer demonstration.
19:55So, just keep going.
19:56Better to watch an expert like you show me how it's done, isn't it?
19:59I'm an expert.
20:00Idiot.
20:02You crack on, mate.
20:03I'm just going to nip off for a second.
20:05I'll be right back.
20:07Oh, oh, yeah, bring in more customers.
20:09I love it.
20:11Bring down Avid!
20:15With the lift hosed down and the windows open,
20:17the dragons are welcoming their next historical hopeful to the den,
20:21Chinese mathematician, astronomer, inventor, engineer, scholar
20:25and artist Zhang Heng.
20:27Hello, dragons.
20:28Sometimes called the Da Vinci of ancient China,
20:30can he artfully get our dragons to invest?
20:33Mr Zhang Heng, what have you brought to shores?
20:36This is Hou Feng Di Dong Yi.
20:38It is one of the first devices to detect earthquakes.
20:41Your device is obviously way ahead of its time.
20:43How does it work?
20:44If any vibrations in the ground are detected,
20:46a ball is shaken from the dragon's mouth
20:48in the direction of the earthquake source.
20:52I think the design is charming.
20:54Very few people move the unshakable dragons,
20:57so could this be a great sign?
20:59I'm confused. How is it making this building shake?
21:01It's not. It's detecting quite a big earthquake.
21:04Oh, it should really run.
21:05We're all in!
21:07Someone save the carriage!
21:09Looks like Zhang's tech has really brought the house down.
21:15Hello, I'm Thomas Edson,
21:17one of the greatest and most inventive minds ever to have lived.
21:21I suffered with quite bad hearing loss,
21:23so when my musician friend Hans von Below
21:25visited so I could record him playing the piano on the phonograph,
21:28how did I listen along to him?
21:30Did I, A, create an awesome robot ear trumpet to listen through,
21:34B, bite the piano,
21:36or C, invent special glasses so I could see the sound waves?
21:41The answer is B.
21:43I bit the instruments.
21:45The sound vibrations would travel through my teeth and through my skull
21:48and into the hearing nerve inside my head.
21:50Genius!
21:51OK, Hans, hit it.
21:55Oh, yeah!
21:57It's a real vinyl.
22:00Loo man, hoo man, the living toilet poo
22:03Ran from the Middle Ages in a bucket
22:05So that you can have a poo
22:07In a private place
22:09Sticking on my bucket with a cape to hide your face
22:12A bum, a dreaded dumb
22:15I will charge a pending if you did a two-on-one
22:18Loo man!
22:20Please welcome today's historical figure who really needs the loo,
22:24Hedy Lamarr!
22:30Greetings, friend.
22:32Are you the 1940s superstar film actor Hedy Lamarr,
22:36also known as the most beautiful girl in the world?
22:39Yes, I suppose I am.
22:42Sorry, I was hoping to use the bathroom.
22:45Well, you're in luck, for I am loo man.
22:50You, Hedy Lamarr, have been transported through time from the 1940s
22:54through a mechanism too complicated to explain.
22:56I don't know. I'm also an engineer and inventor, so...
22:59Wait, hold on. As well as a film star?
23:01Yes. I invented a cube that you could drop into water
23:05to make a refreshing drink, like cola.
23:08Does it work with all liquids?
23:10No. No.
23:12Well, that's a shame.
23:13Block quiz!
23:15What is happening?
23:16Answer questions one and two, and I'll let you do a...
23:19Poo!
23:21Please, can we be quick? I've got three questions.
23:24Please, can we be quick?
23:26I've got a couple of extras wanting to make their grand entrance.
23:29Say no more. Question number one.
23:31You were in films like Samson and Delilah and Boomtown.
23:34That one sounds good.
23:36But tell me about some of your tech.
23:38OK, during the Second World War,
23:41I invented a piece of technology to help the war effort.
23:44It was called a frequency-hopping guidance system.
23:47If my customers had a guidance system,
23:49I'd have to mop the floor a lot less.
23:51It's horrible, actually.
23:53It was a radio signal that couldn't be hacked,
23:56so the Nazis couldn't interfere with our torpedoes.
24:00Sounds like you want to launch a torpedo yourself, love.
24:03Question number two.
24:05Do you think you'll leave a lasting legacy?
24:08Aside from that smell.
24:10Well, apparently the work I did on the frequency-hopping system
24:13was later vital to the development of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
24:17Well, I don't go about Wi-Fi, but I know that that was really whiffy.
24:21Hello, Lamar. It's been an absolute pleasure.
24:23You may pass.
24:25Time to release the clock, Buster.
24:28Well, I know I'll be tuning in.
24:30Join me next time when I'll be stopping another historical celeb
24:33from taking a poo to ask questions just like them.
24:41Well, I've been working hard and I've created some brand-new tech.
24:45Presenting Rattus 2.0!
24:52I call it Ratt GPT.
24:55He's going to do my job for me while I lie on a beach somewhere.
25:00Thomas Edison was one of history's busiest tech whizzes,
25:04creating over 1,000 inventions.
25:07See? He's amazing!
25:10And they don't have to pay me.
25:12Edison helped develop electricity, sound recording, cinema and even X-rays.
25:18Hang on. This thing could put me out of a job.
25:21Here's Edison to tell you everything.
25:24Take it away! Away! Away!
25:28Phew! He's broken.
25:30And thank goodness for that.
25:32I think I'll leave this tech lark to the experts.
25:35♪
25:44♪ Look round your house at all the things.
25:48♪ The light that shines, the phone that rings.
25:52♪ The sounds you like, the things you view.
25:56♪ I had a hand in all you do.
26:00♪ Oh, who am I?
26:02♪ The light bulb guy.
26:04♪ You'd be surprised.
26:07♪ Thomas Edison!
26:09♪ The inventor of the light bulb illuminator.
26:15♪ Movie studio!
26:17♪ Black Maria!
26:19♪ Kinetoscope!
26:21♪ Movie camera!
26:23♪ Photograph!
26:25♪ Voice recorder!
26:27♪ And the network electric power!
26:31♪ All me!
26:33♪
26:37♪ I said I'd make a new design every ten days.
26:43♪ They weren't all mine.
26:45♪ I paid for help from other minds to bump the numbers.
26:52♪ Never mind.
26:54♪ With Graham Bell's phone, I did tell him
26:58♪ what you should say when the thing rings.
27:02♪ I disagreed.
27:04♪ With old Bell boy, I said hello.
27:08♪ He said ahoy, ahoy, ahoy, ahoy, ahoy, ahoy.
27:16Imagine that!
27:17Thomas Edison!
27:19The inventor!
27:21Run by Tosco!
27:23The projector!
27:25Mimeograph!
27:27Candid printer!
27:29Electric pens!
27:31Not a winner!
27:33With the light song, it's less dangerous.
27:37Yes, my light bulb made me famous.
27:42Yeah!
27:43♪
27:50When Americans say, I want a gold plaque,
27:53I'll be stopping more historical celebrities
27:55from taking the poo.
27:57Tosco!
27:59There'll be music playing.
28:01♪ The past is no longer a mystery.
28:04♪ Hope you enjoyed Horrible Histories.
