What were the biggest bluffs in the history of warfare?
The biggest bluffs in the history of warfare are the cliffs at Thermopylae in Greece:
This is where in the year 300 (I assume), King Leonopteryx battled the forces of Persia under Xerxes the Great, whose name was in fact Khshayarsha but this was too many letters for Greek news reporters to take down while being shot by arrows.
The spartan king managed to push many of the Persian soldiers off of these bluffs, resulting in him triumphantly still losing the battle with such bravado that soldiers in 21st century America still adorn their Ford Trucks with his immortal words, “Horn Broken, See Finger.”
This event was also depicted in Zack Snyder’s magnificent 3D opus, “Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole.” It could sadly not be filmed at the actual location because it is now a parking lot for the biggest McDonalds in Lamia Municipality. The nearby spot where the king died is now occupied by the ice cream machine, which also dies frequently.
