Episode 11: Fire Weapons
March 26, 2007 • 60 min
Fire is the oldest, most feared weapon known to man. Take a journey through time to see how ancient Greek Fire set seas alight, destroying naval fleets; how World War II incendiary bombs unleashed firestorms in enemy cities; why napalm became one of the lasting images of the Vietnam War; and how all of these weapons have been surpassed by the awesome destructive power of today's thermobaric bombs.
