In 1974, a group of seven farmers in China accidentally uncovered a 2,200-year-old Terracotta Army while digging a well for their village.

The majority of Mercedes-Benz race cars—as well as several unique and flagship vehicles—are painted in the company's famous silver hue, although this was originally an unplanned improvisation.
