Today, we're going to experience the 'Butterfly Effect' of human history with guest, Jared Knott. He is the author of Tiny Blunders/Big Disasters: Thirty-nine Tiny Mistakes That Changed the World Forever. How often does it happen that a single tiny mistake causes an entire civilization to collapse? More often than you think! You will be amazed at the little things that changed history in a big way. Here are a few examples: -A single document poorly designed by one single clerk in one single county changed the outcome of a presidential election and led directly to a major war. -A soldier accidentally kicks a helmet off the top of a wall and causes an empire to collapse. -A small mechanical device several inches long fails to function, which changes the outcome of WWII and leads to the death of millions of people. A man fails to gather his army in time to defend against an attack because of the temptation of opium and a young slave woman.
