This world is full of wonders. One of such wonders I’ve just discovered is a “combined lifting and spanking machine” patented in 1909:
In case you’re wondering how this works:
The object of the invention is to provide a trick device of this character used ostensibly as a weight-lifting machine but which, when actuated operates a spring actuated electro-generator and a spring actuated paddle.
Can you imagine this in the gym? You grab the weights, pull on them, and suddenly – THWACK!
Oh dear.
Someone found one of these in a museum and put a clip on YouTube about it. I put it in a post, on the 16th of June. The YouTube clip can be found at http://youtu.be/vPSn4UZ-zN8

This looks a lot like the one I posted on my tumblr. What caught my eye was the 32 caliber “blank” that was used for a sharp sound effect. Yikes!
