"If there were a military failed inventions Hall of Fame," the History Channel says, "there would surely be a place for the nuclear rifle."
Sure would. This clip, on the Davy Crockett portable nuclear weapon, doesn't hit every detail perfetctly, if I understand correctly. For instance, there's at least a theoretical possibly of a crew firing it off – without getting nailed by an atomic blast. Whatever, the segment is still a hoot.
After the jump: More nuclear fun.
