Seen this before on the frum, never get bored of watching it though.

Siege of Tobruk - One German POW said: "I cannot understand you Australians. In Poland, France, and Belgium, once the tanks got through the soldiers took it for granted that they were beaten. But you are like demons. The tanks break through and your infantry still keep fighting." Rommel wrote of seeing "a batch of some fifty or sixty Australian prisoners ... marched off close behind us—immensely big and powerful men, who without question represented an elite formation of the British Empire, a fact that was also evident in battle."

The average age of those "inventions" dates back to around 1000 AD as the documentary describes with a few of them dating on an earlier era.

Sorry to burst your bubble though cause at least half of those "inventions" were known and applied stuff in Greece at least a millennium earlier than the chinese counterparts....

You would have to enlighten us exactly which ones you're talking about.

OFC... but in order not to spoil this thread, expect a new dedicated thread about the subject very soon.
