02.01.2022 An exploding rat, developed by British secret agents during WWII. Rat carcasses like this would be filled with plastic explosives and planted in the boiler room...s of German factories. Factory workers would find the dead rats and shovel them into the fire, thereby triggering a major explosion. Well that was the idea anyway. The rat bombs never actually caused a single explosion...yet they were still considered a big success. Why? Because the Germans intercepted the first rat shipment and got really paranoid that their country had already been infested with booby-trapped rodents. They then wasted a huge amount of resources fruitlessly trying to hunt down an army of exploding rats that never really existed. I feel like there is a moral to this story, but I'm struggling to identify what it is. Maybe that you really shouldn't give a rat's ass? See more
