The Volkswagen Schwimmwagen was the most produced amphibious military vehicle of World War II. Approximately 15,000 were manufactured between 1942 and 1944. Only in Hessisch Oldendorf can so many survivors be seen gathered in one place and traveled for miles along the Weser River, just as they were designed to.

Just an overall concentrate of (sensible) weirdness : here is the smallest nuclear submarine of the US Navy, capable of deep diving (up to 724 meters), and equipped with tandem wheels to "drive" on the seafloor for maximal discretion.

As Mongolia is a landlocked nation, the Sükhbaatar III patrols lake Khövsgöl and offers tours to the public to cover its expenses. Its crew consists of seven sailors - of which it is said that only one can swim - making it the smallest naval force in the world.

Kinda cool that the Aliens Pulse Rifle is so iconic that little kids' water guns are patterned after it.

If I had kids, I would probably insist that they play out a summer game of Colonial Marines (with a water gun and one water balloon grenade) versus acid-spitting Xenomorphs (with a bucket of water-balloons).

But then, I'd be a terrible Dad, because I would've let them watch the movies a little too early. Just the first two movies.

I wanted to formally announce r/WeirdWatercraft!!
