Video - Revolutionary War Oddities: Washington's Teeth, Midnight Rides, and Franklin's Turkey

Did you know that during the American Revolutionary War, George Washington didn't have a proper set of teeth? His dentures were made from a mix of human teeth, animal teeth, and even hippopotamus ivory! Talk about biting off more than you can chew. Here's another fun fact: Paul Revere wasn't the only one making midnight rides. Sybil Ludington, a 16-year-old girl, rode twice as far to warn the colonial militia of the British approach. And get this: Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey to be the national bird instead of the bald eagle. Imagine Thanksgiving with a side of national pride!
