The Flying Ford Pinto and Comedians who Died on Stage

from Wiki University · host Wiki U, Jheisson Nunez, Kyle Berseth

In 1971 the Ford Pinto was released into the world and soon earned a reputation for being a car that explodes. Despite having that knowledge, the smart guys at Advanced Vehicle Engineers decided to attach a Pinto to a plane to create a flying car. They created the AVE Mizar which took flight in 1973. Also in this episode we'll be covering inventors who were killed by their own inventions and comedians who died while performing.Our sponsor for this episode is Magic Mind!
