It's no sillier than the invention of the Chicken Cannon.
Originally created to test the behavior of bird impacts on high-speed bullet trains, some group of people were paid to create a device which would project a bird at high speed in a wind tunnel at a mockup of a bullet train front.
Well, they finally built it, and went ahead to test it. One of their number was sent to get a bird for testing, and when they fired it, the bird punched through the plexi window, and buried itself in the concrete wall behind it.
Apparently no one told this guy not to use a frozen chicken. Hence the name...

Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
