Is This History’s WORST or BEST Book? | Tales From the Bottle
Poland’s first encyclopedia is a pretty terrible encyclopedia, but it is funny!
“Nowe Ateny (New Athens) is the abbreviated title of the first Polish-language encyclopedia, authored by the 18th-century Polish priest Benedykt Joachim Chmielowski. The first edition was published in 1745–1746 in Lwów (Lviv); the second edition was updated and expanded in 1754–1764.
The first part of the full title was: New Athens or the Academy full of all science, divided into subjects and classes, for the wise ones to record, for the idiots to learn, for the politicians to practice, for the melancholics to entertain issued…
The book uses the Polish language as the main text, and primarily Latin for the in-line references. Chmielowski also included anecdotes in the text, and tales about strange and exotic topics.”

It's hard to be a dragon, but you have to try

Perhaps the "dragon bone" he held was from a dragon fossil.

Weirdly, an awful lot of historical accounts mention thon race of headless humans, though mind, they’re always of the variety of tales that begin much like “my cousin knew a fellow who knew this other guy who said he his ex girlfriend knew…”, and I’ve yet to come by an account where anyone claims to have actually met these people themselves (or to know how on Earth they’d have been getting on without any heads)

I play light bottom 12s, because 10s and 9s feel terrible and 11s almost do.

Where can I find more information on this book. It seems not many historians actually dwell on it today or this video is also not fully true or was that the joke?

I know the Dark Knight Rises isn't the best movie, but it's probably the best on screen representation of Bane that we'll ever get. I'd watch it again, while falling in a giant hole, and probably piss myself a bunch.

Well he was right about one thing, it's certainly entertaining to melancholics.

Well, I guess Guiness world records book was not out yet, so he assumed people need smthn for a laugh in pubs at those long, dark polish autumn evenings… Who says he did believe in all those tales…
