  1. "3-7-77" wasn't just a number — it was a death sentence. In 1863, gold-crazed Montana had no law, so miners built their own: hoods, ropes, and a secret oath. 21 outlaws hanged in six weeks, including the sheriff himself. Their mark still rides on Montana Highway Patrol badges today.

  3. He left school around ten. He invented a way for moving trains to telegraph each other. He beat Thomas Edison's lawyers in court. Twice. Edison offered him a job. Granville Woods said no, then sold the company patents anyway.

  7. One thing I have learned after watching a bunch of newer videos about the bronze age collapse, the Trojan war and the late bronze age in general is that it seems to have existed a trade embargo between Hatti and Mycenaean Greece for at least a generation around 1200 BCE. At least from reading Hittite letters scolding local kings for daring to break said embargo and trading with the Mycenaeans.
