On This Day in Weird, April 1...
1965: BBC TV interviews a London University professor who
claims he has perfected a technology he called "smell-o-vision,"
allowing TV viewers to smell aromas produced in the television studio. He
demonstrates by placing coffee beans and onions into the smell-o-vision machine
and asks viewers to report by noon whether they smell anything. Many viewers
phone in affirmative results, some claiming the onions made their eyes water.
