Wei-Chen Sun is actually the Monkey King's eldest son, sent to earth in human form as an emissary for Tze-Yo-Tzuh. His test of virtue is to spend forty years in the mortal world while remaining free of human vice.
Sellner was a resident of Faribault, MN, who made a living designing things. Originally it was furniture, then it was childrenâs toys. What really made Sellner famous, though, was an invention he created in 1923: the Water-Toboggan Slide. Sellnerâs creation was the first water slide ever made. He built a large wooden slide that went out over the water. Children (or adults) would climb to the top with a sled and slide down. When they hit the water, the sleds didnât sink. Instead, they went shooting out over the water up to 100 feet.
These designs were later improved on when Rolex introduced the first truly waterproof wristwatch, the Oyster, in 1926. Also around this time, new models were first introduced with fixed lugs (often called âhornsâ), which gave them a more finished appearance.
