Lol is he giving the V-Sign? That finger gesture must be old as hell.

English longbow men would hold up the two fingers they used to pull the bowstring at Frenchmen as an insult because of how effective longbows were against the French.
Iirc French soldiers would cut those two fingers off a captured or killed longbow user to show their disdain for the weapon.

Probably it went like someone threw a spear in frustration and successfully killed their prey, so someone went: "What if we throw many spears?" but because spears are heavy they made them small.
Can you imagine how much iterative development there is in a bow, though? Those are crazy hard to build well - it must have sucked for ages
You just had to patent "a method for throwing small spears very fast from a distance, using a simple, portable tool." And wait for the money to come to you.
