- 1. Why Are There Razor Blades In My Walls?Many people have opened up the walls of old houses only to have an avalanche of rusty old blades fall out. Fifty years ago, nearly every bathroom had a medicine cabinet. At the back of the medicine cabinet was a tiny slot for disposing of use shaving razors. But the slot was actually nothing more than a hole in the wall. So, once you put something through that slot, there was no way to get it out.CC3minAug 29, 2017
- 2. Flying Cruise Ships: What Happened To Giant Airships?With amenities like piano lounges, dining rooms and private staterooms, airships were a luxurious and relaxed way to travel the world. 80 years ago, airships like the Hindenburg were more like flying cruise ships than conventional aircraft. They would fly so smoothly, you could balance a pencil on its end without it falling over and could fly anywhere over land and water. Before the Hindenburg disaster, plans were being drawn up for ever bigger, more luxurious airships.CC5minSep 8, 2017

- 7. Why You Wouldn't Want to Fly The First Jet Airliner: De Havilland Comet StoryAir travel before the Jet Age wasn’t always glamorous.
