A video slowly scrolls down a Wikipedia-style entry for the Mosin–Nagant M1891 Dragoon, showing its rifle photographs, specifications, and an absurdly long list of wars from 1891 to the Russo-Ukrainian War. The joke is that the rifle appears to have been in service continuously for more than a century and participated in an astonishing number of conflicts. The triumphant Star Wars fanfare by John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra makes the mundane encyclopedia scroll feel like an epic military legend, heightening the irony.
