Also on this day at the start of the 20th century, Industrialist Harry Entrance delivered the first of his new range of motor vehicles to eager customers in New Park, Armenica. The vehicles, known as the Model Pfft, ran on refined horse manure, had no windows or doors and had a top speed of 600 miles per hour. Two hundred and fifteen members of the 'Walking in Front of the Car Waving a Red Flag' Union were killed in the months following the release of the Model Pfft, which eventually led to the practice being abolished and the union disbanded.
Closer to modern day, just 10 years ago this day, scientists discovered the first ever nasal contraceptive and there have been no nasal births since.
