More like "10 kinda interesting Weapons through History" but I especially like the fact that I've never heard of #8:

Is it a bad thing that I've seen every one of these in action in one form or another?

Dude...how old are you? WWI was hella days ago.

The Paris gun was made by Krupps...y'know, the coffee maker peeps...and each shell was numbered. This was due to the fact that after each round was fired, the barrel eroded, so each sequential shell had to be a tad larger in diameter.

My great uncle was a commando during D-Day at got to see first hand just how effective the Goliath was.

I've seen archive footage of it before.
What I didn't know is that it was made by Krupps. That's an interesting fact indeed.
