And it's a baseline that you can then draw on for the rest of the class.

There's a very strategic reason for why I do it, right?

When I do it.

Um, third reason is to sort of teach people about how sort of ancient technologies works, how, you know, how those technologies work.

And it's a really simple, um, really simple sort of technology.

But, um, when you see it in action, you see someone throw one of these things, it is like the matrix.

You mentioned the matrix before we were in the nineties, like we're in the nineties environment.

It's like the matrix, like it looks impossible.

Right.

And, you know, it starts about 40,000 years ago.

Um, we do it in a unit in the class.

We're talking about sort of the, you know, the birth of human creativity and that sort of stuff.

And this is one of those things that sort of really gives human beings a significant edge in hunting, right?

Because now you can hunt a mammoth or something and not have to worry about it stomping you and dying, right?

So you walk up to a mammoth like, eh, what's going to happen?

It's going to die, right?

Now, granted, you can't just throw one of these things at a mammoth and critical hit it in the eye and just die.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So you could throw a whole bunch of these things at a mammoth or some other creature and hope for the best and it dies, right?
