karmak10827yJust tried it because it seemed odd to me. Clicked on 'Random'. Here's the result:
Solar Eclipse of may 29, 1938 -> Moon -> Soviet Union -> World War II - > Hitler.

Not that crazy when you think of the global ingluence of such an event. It would be crazier to reach i don't know... Chewbacca in 5 clicks.
