Navy Blue Angel Pilot. Jairus Cobb. Storyline Edit. But amazingly, in December , U. Looking far more disheveled than his typical appearance, American soldiers took custody of Saddam. During his arrest, Hussein was fingerprinted by the FBI.

That's where Bill comes in. While the original documents are kept in the bureau's vaults, the FBI gave certified copies of the fingerprints to all agents who were involved in the capture. So, Bill brought his certified copy of Saddam Hussein's fingerprints into the shop in season five, episode six, "Silence of the Lambo.

While Rick mentions he has a policy against buying items related to "bad guys," he's interested in buying Bill's copy.

Before the days of fancy prosthetics and stuff that not only resembles actual lost body parts, but are now in some cases even better than what was there before, people either had to just make do with lost limbs or make a replacement out of whatever they had.

Thus, wooden peg legs came to exist. Peg legs are typically associated with pirates on the high seas, and that's probably what immediately popped into your head.

That's what a customer named Charlie thought, too, when he brought one to the shop in season two, episode 17, "Bow Legged. Rick suspects the leg actually hails from a different era: the Civil War. So Rick calls in Rod, an expert in nautical antiques, who agrees it is a Civil War artifact based on the hardware used, as there are manufactured nails with flat heads, something that wouldn't have existed before the mids.

He also points out there is indeed evidence it really was used, so this thing wasn't just for show. Charlie decides not to go forward and walks out with three legs. One of the original horror novels that has spawned endless movies, theatrical adaptations, video games, and so on, Dracula tells the story of, well, Dracula, an ageless vampire who arrives in London and torments the people he encounters there. To say it's an influential story is a huge understatement. Dracula forms one of the pillars upon which horror stories are based to this day, and Dracula as a character is a massive figure, even appearing in scores of things that aren't directly based on the novel.

So you can imagine Big Hoss's excitement in season four, episode 31, "High Stakes," when a customer named Mark brings in not only a hardcover copy of the novel from the original United States pressing, but one that is autographed by author Bram Stoker himself. It even includes a date, also written by Stoker, of September 16, , the year the novel was released. Big Hoss points out it's not a first edition, since the book was originally published in Europe and not the U.

Throughout history, there have been an uncountable number of different civilizations, and they all used tools and weapons of various shapes and sizes. It can be difficult to tell just where a piece came from, something the people on Pawn Stars often encounter, which requires calling in an expert.

But sometimes it can even be unclear just what an item is in the first place. This was the situation faced by Rick when a customer named Ryan brought in a hand-held blade with multiple curves in season four, episode 25, "Silent and Deadly," making it look something like a cross between a weapon and a scythe for harvesting.

Ryan wasn't sure, as it was given to him by an uncle who had passed on, and Rick and Chumlee had no idea either. The blade was made from iron, but crudely forged, indicating whoever made it had good materials, but maybe not advanced blademaking skills seen in other cultures. Rick calls in a friend, Sean, who is an expert in antique weapons and armor.

He determines it's a sword used by tribes in the Congo from the mids, and it would have been wielded by a chieftain specifically for the purpose of beheading enemies. While they deal with a great many dangerous weapons on Pawn Stars , from guns and swords to more unusual weaponry, nothing beats the piece brought in by Brian in season 10, episode four, "Put Up Your Nukes. Thermonuclear weapons, similar to nuclear weapons, cause massive amounts of destruction through atomic fusion , creating those enormous mushroom clouds you've seen in documentaries for decades.

Thermonuclear weapons, also known as hydrogen bombs, are a higher yield and size from standard nuclear warheads, as the trivia text points out. What Brian has is a component to one of the most horrific weapons of war ever devised.

The cover, which comes from an American B warhead according to a small plate attached to the side, is a bit out of Rick's expertise, so he visits with an expert, Allan, from the nearby National Atomic Testing Museum it is Vegas, after all. Allan says the cover isn't from a hydrogen bomb, but a regular nuclear bomb instead, and was used to protect the bomb's nose cone to prevent accidental explosions. Allan has a defused B right in the museum, so Rick and Brian try it on, finding it's a perfect fit.

The first World War, waged from , was one of the bloodiest conflicts to happen in human history, but is especially disturbing because by then humans had photographic and even some video footage that could directly show the horrors of war.

Since it was also the first major war after the invention of many modern medical and surgical techniques, it also showed people some of the unsettling things a combat medic or nurse might have to deal with on the battlefield. Surgery is fraught enough as it is, so imagine performing it in a trench with no real facilities, bullets and bombs flying overhead, and dirt and disease all around you.

Bob, a customer that visited the shop in season 15's premiere, "Going, Going And you did claim specifically that some guests were paid fees. Any evidence of that at all? And no one cares if they arrange to bring someone in to sell something anyway. In my official capacity of Pawn Stars Defender, I see no reason not to also ask you to present your evidence.

Here is how the show works if you have ever been to Las Vegas and seen the store. The store is huge. You only see a part of it. Now there are lines of people hoping to sell their crap. None of them walk right up to Rick or even see him although the entire store has signs saying just entering you give consent to be shown on TV. All that stuff is screened ahead of time. If there is anything interesting that might make for good TV they are asked to come back.

They are not going to waste time having everyone come back. If you are on TV speaking not background you are going to get paid an appearence fee. But I saw no evidence that any of the buying or selling is fake. Lots of the items you see on the TV are still in the store. So its all set up ahead of time. Not the same as fake. For scripted and fake see Hardcore Pawn.

To sell piece by piece to would probably take a long time to make a profit. In order to sell the entire set whole they would have to hope to find that one buyer willing to spend that much or put it up for auction.
