techniques. Staccato was one of them. 15

One famous piece that uses staccato is Joseph


Haydn’s Symphony no. 101. People nicknamed it the

American inventor John Hetrick made the first
airbags in 1951. He came up with the idea after almost
having an accident. He remembered something from his 10

time in the navy. He had seen compressed air being used


to shoot weapons underwater. Hetrick tried using the
same system for airbags. When a sensor felt the crash,
compressed air filled the bag. Sadly, at first it wasn’t fast
enough to be effective. 15

Over time, however, people improved airbags. For


example, a man named Allen Breed made a faster
sensor. Airbags are now safe enough for use in cars.
