Chapter 100: A baby falling out of a window was rescued by the same man twice
A toddler did fall on poor old mr Figlock and he claimed this had happened before, but that can't be proven and it wasn't the same child! https://t.co/X41LdyIkjN

Nope, he made great inventions and sold lots of toilets but he didn't invent the mechanical flush toilet.

Chapter 97: Hitler invented the motorway
Nein.
The motorway existed before he got in power.

Chapter 96: During the Middle Ages, people drank beer instead of water
Medieval people had relatively easy access to clean water and drank lots of it.
Ale was a cheap and tasty way to consume grain and provide drinkers with nutrients, carbs and proteins. https://t.co/tmBgi8HdjY

Chapter 88: During the Middle Ages, there were torches everywhere
These torches burn for about 40 minutes, an hour if you're lucky.
Does it sound like a good way to light streets and rooms with? https://t.co/8pGRlRzBWt

Chapter 89: Beethoven was Black
There's no evidence that he was black, people forget that the meaning and interpretation of words changes over time and also the DNA research totally destroyed this myth. https://t.co/Zr2ulKMfS7

Chapter 82: Europeans built a bridge in Ethiopia but locals couldn’t repair it and crossed the river with ropes
Locals could have repaired it as they had done before, it was they who also tore it down when Italian fascist troops came to invade. https://t.co/BpiyYCutEQ
