The CRAZIEST Law in American History?! (Death Penalty for SALT) 🤯 Seriously, death for sprinkling salt? This bizarre true story takes us back to 1919 Alabama, where the state government passed one of the strangest laws ever conceived. The Reason: Train robbers discovered a genius (and utterly ridiculous) life hack: cows LOVE salt. By salting the tracks, a whole HERD of hungry cows would swarm the rails, forcing the mail train to screech to a halt. The perfect setup for a Classic Western-style robbery! 💰🚂 This is a must-see piece of forgotten US history. Did you know engineers started carrying bags of sugar instead of guns? Watch to find out why! What do you think of this crazy law?
