Sometimes a good revenge story is all you need to spice up a Friday night. And if it involves a “killdozer,” well, that’s just a bonus. This week on “The UnBelievable,” Dan Aykroyd, our trusty guide through the bizarre corners of history, is back to explore the wonderfully weird world of vengeance.
Apparently, zoning disputes can escalate quickly. So quickly, in fact, that one disgruntled individual decided to modify a bulldozer into an armored monstrosity—a “killdozer,” as it’s affectionately known—to settle the score. Ah, the lengths people will go to for a little peace and quiet. One can only imagine the HOA meeting minutes from that neighborhood.
But if you think weaponized construction equipment is the peak of vengeful creativity, wait until you hear about the emperor who decided pickling was the best way to preserve…well, not exactly vegetables. Let’s just say his wife’s lover ended up in a rather unusual predicament. Talk about adding insult to injury – and a whole lot of vinegar.
Aykroyd, with his signature blend of the spooky and the sardonic, will walk us through these and other tales of retribution. It’s a safe bet that he’ll deliver the stories with his usual deadpan charm, making even the most outlandish acts of revenge seem almost…reasonable? Okay, maybe not reasonable, but definitely entertaining.
So, if you’re looking for a break from the usual Friday night fare, tune in to see just how far people will go to get even. Who knows, you might even learn a new pickling recipe. (Just, you know, maybe stick to cucumbers.) “The UnBelievable with Dan Aykroyd: Sweet Revenge” airs Friday, November 22nd at 9:00 PM on History. Don’t miss your chance to witness history’s most satisfying (and arguably most disturbing) payback moments.
