Tyrannosaurus rex was far from a plodding Cretaceous era scavenger. Its long tail, besides serving to counterbalance the weight of its large head, was also key to its speed.
In an early form of biological warfare, 12th century counter-balance trebuchets were used to launch diseased corpses over walls, infecting and terrorizing those besieged.
