Interested in just about everything, Leonardo da Vinci was a true Renaissance man. He sketched concepts that wouldn't be invented for centuries -- and even something that looks suspiciously like a car. Learn more in this episode.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Go behind the wheel and under the hood on everything
automotive with high speed stuff from how stuff works dot com.
This is it's a time of photoboca. Stop. Oh that
was unexpected. Yeah, that wasn't very good. But hey, can
you guess what what that was? What accent that was? Um,
(00:24):
that's not the way I really sound. Oh my gosh,
I'm gonna maybe I don't guess you know what I
do know? Italian? It was Italian? It was. And sorry
in advance to any any Italian listeners. Um, we're just
having fun here. It's another great day at high speed stuff.
We've got some pretty cool things to talk about. Scott,
(00:44):
correct me if I'm wrong. But there are a lot
of There are a lot of very interesting Italian car manufacturers, right, Oh, definitely, Yeah,
there's a lot of supercar makers are Italian. In addition
to that, they're just some, um I guess, more pedestrian
versions of cars, you know, the Fiat and they're just
it doesn't have to be super cars, but that just
happens to be where several of them come from. Yes,
(01:05):
oh yeah that and those have a great reputation. So
how far back would you say, uh, Italians go with cars, um,
I would say, way, way, way back. You mean like
the nineteen hundreds, uh, earlier, later, earlier, earlier, eighteen eighteen,
(01:27):
something's a lot earlier, which you're going to be shocked by,
because what we know the first car was sometime in
the late eighteen hundreds. Yeah, actually five all right, consider
me interested, listeners. You can't see this, but this is
my interested phase. So that is interested. Yeah, and it
actually dates all the way back. And you're gonna hold
(01:48):
on your socks, been where are they hanging? Fourteen seventy eight, four,
fourteen seventy eight. Now, if you're gonna say, well, cars
weren't around five hundred years ago, right, well, let me
get to my line hold on cars weren't around till
years ago, right, I was guessing. Yeah, Well, the thing
is it was just a sketch. It really wasn't um
(02:10):
it wasn't ever produced, it wasn't built. But there was
one man, Leonardo Leonardo da Vinci, who sketched a very
primitive version of an automobile. Leonardo da Vinci sketched the automobile.
A version of that, well, a version of it's not
really what we think of as a modern automobile. But um,
(02:31):
well you know what, in a way, I guess it
is it kind of is. It's more of a self
propelled cart really, but um, you got to remember that
in this had never been done before. This was this
is all new. So up until that point, vehicles were
all powered by you know, by animals or by people,
I guess, you know, people pushing vehicles, um or gravity
(02:53):
I guess would do it as well. But this was
a self propelled cart that he designed, and you know,
it just sketched it. He was never, like I said,
never built in his in his time. Um, we'll talk
about that later. But um, never built in his time,
but it was proven to function crazy because he built
excuse me if I'm correct, he sketched quite a few
(03:16):
things that were never built in his time. He did.
He's now I mean, I guess maybe we should talk
about who he was really, Yeah, what he what he's
responsible for or you know he's capable of, or what
he was capable of. Um, he has a long list
of professions. I guess he was a jack of all
trades and Renaissance Renaissance man. You knew I was getting
to it right, Um A heways he's he's always like,
(03:38):
way way ahead of his time with everything that he did.
But um, I mean when we're saying renaissance man, what
we mean is that he's kind of he did everything.
He had multiple interests in areas of expertise. That's right,
he was. I'm just gonna go down the lister. He's
a he's a scientist, an inventor, and artist, sculptor. He
was at um an anatomy expert. He was an engineer
(03:59):
and architect, and I think he did things like you know,
fish tank repair and a little bit of plumbing on
the side. He was also and now now he's in
now he's in the movies. Now he's but he did
you know some of his famous paintings he he Um,
he did the Mona Lisa, the Last Supper. Um. He
sketched the the Truvian Man, which was you know, the
the anatomy of Man of every anatomical textbook. Correct. Yeah, see,
(04:24):
I mean you're familiar with it. But um, remarkable personally. Sure,
he did a lot of things and uh, among those
was the sketch of the car. That's so crazy, I mean,
does this does this guy not already have enough? You
know what. I mean, he needed to add to his resume.
I my gosh, can we have one thing? You know,
there's a there's actually a whole list of things that
(04:45):
maybe we'll read later that you know, inventions that were
again far ahead of his time, that you know, either
were proven to work or not work. But you know,
at least he had the thought. And again this is
you know, five years ahead at the time, so we
can we can run down a couple of those. Yeah,
in perspective, well, just so you know what he was
up to. I mean, he sketched, He sketched all of these.
He sketched the parachute, the tank, steam engine, UM, the airplane, submarine,
(05:13):
helicopter which he called the aerial screw I believe, UM.
And that's that's named for the type of type of
propeller it had on the top. Okay, not you know,
he wasn't making some sort of lute joke. I'll buy that,
all right. Yeah, So, yes, I came up with the
(05:33):
idea for the odometer UM, which you know what, just
going off my memory. I don't have a note about
this or anything, but this is some sort of a
wheel system with with gears and holes and It required
the person to drop a pebble through holes that would
line up at certain points, and then you would count
the number of pebbles to determine how far you traveled.
(05:55):
Very primitive, of course, but um, you know that's the
early odometer design. And see also came up with a
canal dredger, which was important at the time, you know,
because it need a way to travel and via water. Um.
And the paddle boat. That's another one of his designs,
the paddle boat. Paddle boat. Yeah, up until that point,
I guess everybody been going with the current, so you know,
(06:17):
this is the way to to fight upstream, I guess.
So this guy is really it's no exaggeration when we
say he's ahead of his time when you consider this
is a man in fifteenth century Europe who is thinking
of things that mainstream science wasn't even really messing with
until much much later. It was a long time later.
(06:38):
And um, I mean just think about five years prior
to the first automobile. It's a long long time. And
I know we keep calling an automobile and it's sort
of sort of, isn't But the thought behind it that
you know, something could move on its own without a
human pushing it, without an animal pulling it. Um, that's
pretty remarkable, I think. Yeah. And when we when we
say that it's a sketch, you know, it's easy to say,
(07:01):
well I could draw that. Somebody, uh sometime before him
surely drew something like that. But this, when we say
this is a sketch, Uh, this this isn't just you know,
an artistic depiction. This is a really detailed version, right correct. Yeah,
And you know what, as a matter of fact that
(07:22):
it's detailed. It did have one area that was kind
of a mystery though, and that's actually the hold up
of why it wasn't wasn't wasn't built until Um, it
was after two thousand I'll tell you that right now.
It was then. Um it was built in two thousand four.
Hold on, they really built it. Yeah, it's probably been built. Well,
I'm sorry, didn't mean to let the cat out of
the bag there, but well, I guess maybe we'll get
(07:44):
back that in just a moment. But there was a
that cat is long and surprise, Um, it was built,
but there was a there was an area that was
hidden and it was in the sketch and it was
it was enclosed and the longest time they thought it
was a leaf spring design that was hidden within this box.
(08:04):
What it really was was a coil spring and that
is what stored the energy to allow this thing to move.
So um, just by figuring out that that was a
coil spring that's supposed to be within that box, that's
what led to this thing being able to be produced.
Now here's the big question. So, Okay, they built it,
Sorry about that. No, no, We've got one more cat
in this bag. What happened after they built it? You know,
(08:27):
did it did it work? Did it not work? It
actually did work, It truly did work. But now they
were they're actually afraid that it was going to have
too much power, too much stored energy when they released
this thing, because it was pretty big and I don't
have the exact measurements here, but it was it was
a decent size. But what they did was they built
a I think it was a one third scale model, um,
(08:49):
just just to make sure that it wasn't gonna be
too dangerous once they released the pressure on the thing
wasn't just gonna either destroy itself or just take off
because it was pretty substantial, vehicle heavy, and so they
built a scale model of scale model work, and of
course then the real model work, and they found out
that the sketch has the idea for a real primitive
(09:11):
version of programmable steering. So this is this cart that's
now self propelled. The design, remember five hundred years ago
has programmable steering, which I find that remarkable. Will break
that down real quick, programmable steering. What exactly do we mean?
It's it's pretty simple that all it means is that
it can travel certain distance and then turn. And I
(09:33):
don't know if you can make multiple turns or just
one turn. But um, according to notes, it can only
turn one direction. It can only make right hand turns.
But still we're talking about again five years ago, someone
thinking that far ahead, and it's it's accomplished by just
using wooden blocks, um and allowing you know, the vehicle
to travel certain predetermined distance and then turn. So it's
(09:54):
it's you can calculate exactly how far it goes before
it turns. But again, it can only turn right. That's
I guess that's why I didn't get built, you know,
because it's useless in a race. Yeah, that's right. Yeah,
when you have to turn left all the time, right, yeah, yeah,
we turn left here in the States that but we
oh yeah, that's I'm sure that he was worried about
when he was designing. I'm sure he was thinking of NASCAR,
(10:15):
who was thinking centuries ahead into the future. And I'm
positive of that. Yeah, so he was, he was, it was.
It's pretty remarkable, this thing. It's it's currently on display.
It's I think it's a the I'm going to read
here the Institute and Museum of the History of Science,
and it's in Florence, Italy. And you know that's the
group that built it. Of course they were Again it's
in two thousand four, so you're talking five hundred plus
(10:38):
years before this thing was actually put together. Man, I
would love to see that thing. I really would too.
I've seen photos of it. It's it's I don't know
if I should even say it's impressive or not. I
don't know if it is. It just looks like a cart,
it looks like a wagon. But um, just the idea
that this thing can move itself and and the time
frame in which it was designed, that's the most impressive part.
(10:59):
And it's a three wheeler. Ben, it's a three wheel
I forgot to mention this part. Yeah, it's a three wheeler.
We talked about three wheelers in the past. It's a
three wheeler. Oh no, what if he's ahead of our
time to what if we're just another part of this uh,
this space between Da Vinci and the modern age. Yes,
I mean that's pretty remarkable. I guess. Um, I don't know,
it's because we talked about three wheelers in the past
(11:21):
and that's actually pretty good design. So um again, another
another move. He is my pick for someone to to
survive a shipwreck with. You know, he would get us
off the island. I think he would. Yeah, yeah, Um,
I guess I'd be Gilligan though, but I'll live with that.
So since we're talking about racing, I guess before we
(11:42):
before we wrap this up, we got a pretty good Uh,
we got a pretty good listener mail today, didn't we, Yes,
we did. We got a listener mail from Gary and
Gary lives in Ireland and Gary said that he listens
regularly and he caught a bit about pit stops and
he was watching the British Formula One Grand Prix and
(12:05):
they had a little section about how the pit stops work,
and we just talked about them. So you know, yeah,
piqued his interest. Um, he said. He actually gave us
a link to a video on YouTube which shows twenty
six people in an F one pit stop crew and
shows them actually doing it. Yeah, you've watched this now,
I I have, just you know, I haven't haven't looked
(12:25):
at it yet. I'm going to as soon as we
leave here, because I love Formula one and I think
this sounds right up my own. It's super impressive. Gary
uh sent an awesome video in So thank you Gary,
because those guys are not playing around. Now. Remember at
first I was a little bit skeptical about having twenty
plus people fixing a car in that short amount of time. Man,
(12:50):
they are not playing around because what what kind of
time we're talking was like seven seconds or so. It's
like it is like a machine. It's it's like, seriously
an assembly line that happens to be using people as parts.
It's pretty awesome. I was every time I watch F one.
I'm blown away by the precision that those guys exhibit.
(13:10):
And um, I don't know, I'm interesting. I'm really interested
in watching this video today. Um, I think it's gonna
be worthwhile. So thank you Gary. I appreciate it, and well,
I think that's all I have. Yeah, and uh so again,
thanks to Gary, and thanks to all of our listeners
out there and everybody who's writing in. We sure do
love listener mail. If you have an idea for an

(12:25):
at it yet. I'm going to as soon as we
leave here, because I love Formula one and I think
this sounds right up my own. It's super impressive. Gary
uh sent an awesome video in So thank you Gary,
because those guys are not playing around. Now. Remember at
first I was a little bit skeptical about having twenty
plus people fixing a car in that short amount of time. Man,
(12:50):
they are not playing around because what what kind of
time we're talking was like seven seconds or so. It's
like it is like a machine. It's it's like, seriously
an assembly line that happens to be using people as parts.
It's pretty awesome. I was every time I watch F one.
I'm blown away by the precision that those guys exhibit.
(13:10):
And um, I don't know, I'm interesting. I'm really interested
in watching this video today. Um, I think it's gonna
be worthwhile. So thank you Gary. I appreciate it, and well,
I think that's all I have. Yeah, and uh so again,

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
