Harnessing centrifugal force these experimental centrifugal machine guns could throw thousands of projectiles a minute. How did they work? Why didn't the idea catch on? With some newly discovered archival footage, that actually shows one of the guns in action, Matt takes a look at what became one of the wonder technologies of the early 20th century - but never quite caught on!
