The ancestor to the modern minigun was a hand cranked mechanical device invented in the 1860s by Richard Jordan Gatling. He later replaced the hand-cranked mechanism of a rifle-caliber Gatling gun with an electric motor, a relatively new invention at the time. Even after Gatling slowed the mechanism, the new electric-powered Gatling gun had a theoretical rate of fire of 3,000 rounds per minute, roughly three times the rate of a typical modern, single-barreled machine gun. Gatling's electric-powered design received U.S. Patent #502,185 on July 25, 1893.[3] Despite his improvements, the Gatling gun fell into disuse after cheaper, lighter-weight, recoil and gas operated machine guns were invented; Gatling himself went bankrupt for a period.[4] During World War I, several German companies were working on externally powered guns for use in aircraft. Of those, the best-known today is perhaps the Fokker-Leimberger, an externally powered 12-barrel rotary gun using the 7.92×57mm Mauser round; it was claimed to be capable of firing over 7,000 rpm, but suffered from frequent cartridge-case ruptures[5] due to its "nutcracker" rotary split-breech design, which is fairly different from that of conventional rotary gun designs.[6] None of these German guns went into production during the war, although a competing Siemens prototype (possibly using a different action), which was tried on the Western Front, scored a victory in aerial combat.[5] The British also experimented with this type of split-breech during the 1950s, but they were also unsuccessful.[7]

If you slow down the video speed you can see his spirit leave his body just before the 25th second. After that moment you can tell by his stiff walk that hes a full blown walking dead zombie. Later on in the 8th inning he gets another at bat and the opposing team intentionally hits him knocking his left kneecap off. This led to the fielders throwing at him while betting on who could knock off what limbs. luckily his coach had a roll of duct tape and crazy glue

When I was 10yr I threw 5 pitches and hit 4 kids squarely in the ear hole of the helmet. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. The ump said ok no you’re done, you are too dangerous. Not just because I was extremely wild this one fateful morning but I honestly never played on any team where I didn’t throw the ball harder than everyone else on that team. And at 10yo this was even more so than when I was 20 in juco. But the ump literally said and your done pitching today and (rightfully) told my coach to get a new pitcher. For as long as I live I will never ever forget the 4th batters face as I started to wind up. His eyes 👀 were wide open and light of sheer terror was flooding out as he was backing out of the batters box before I let go. And I threw right where I was looking unfortunately. Thump. My dad is almost 70yo and still remembers this fondly bc he’s autistic and thinks it’s one of the funniest things he’s ever seen. True story. Lol.
