A man did this in London in 1810, but with everything - chimney sweeps, piano deliveries, priests, lawyers, coal carts, doctors, undertakers, the archbishop of Canterbury...

It brought the whole area to a standstill and the guy won a guinea in a bet and ran away to the countryside

"Sexual" in this context just means relating to different sexes, it's not saying they're doing it to be sexually appealing (I hope at least)

Nah I've got something similar - not exactly like this but the glass tube with heat exchanging mesh and space underneath for a burner is pretty distinctive - then searched "Stirling engine heart arrow" and tons of these came up
