The History Guy remembers Timothy the tortoise, the last survivor of the Crimean War, and shows that wisdom comes with age. Her life is history that deserves to be remembered. The episode discusses events and shows some artwork and photographs depicting a periods of war, which some viewers may find disturbing. All events are described for educational purposes and are presented in historical context. There are no revealing or inappropriate photographs of tortoises in the episode. No tortoises were harmed in the making of this episode. Tortoises can carry salmonella, so be careful picking them up. Timothy was not known to carry salmonella. Timothy was said to be prone to flatulence when eating too many strawberries. True story. The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photographs of actual events are often not available, I will sometimes use photographs of similar events or objects for illustration.
