*Ze Goggles is derived from the episode of the simpsons "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juFZh92MUOY Radioactive Man]" Season 7, Episode 2 During the shooting of the new Radioactive Man movie and the most expensive shot in the film, Rainier Wolfcastle, as Radioactive Man, is badly burnt by a 40 foot wall of sulphuric acid which Millhouse, playing Fallout Boy, was supposed to save him from. Radioactive Man, clothes melting off, exclaims "MY EYES... the googles, they do nothing!" In his best Austrian accent of course. Hence "Ze googles, zey do nothing!"

Auf wiedersehen, Dummkopf!
The Medic

Ze Goggles are an unlockable hat for the Medic, appearing as a pair of chunky, military-spec night vision goggles.

Trivia

  • Ze Goggles have a special description which reads 'Nothing'. This is a reference to one of Ranier Wolfcastle's lines from The Simpsons' Season 7 episode "Radioactive Man", which has since developed into a meme. This makes Ze Goggles the first hat that can be obtained by the drop system to have a unique description. The other headwear items that have a unique item description are the Earbuds, the Ghastly Gibus, and Max's Severed Head.
  • Ze Goggles hold even more of a reference to the Ecto-Goggles(officially dubbed the "Paragoggles" in Ghostbusters: The Video Game) which appear in the Ghostbusters series, their name originally being 'The Ect-oh Goggles'. This may be a reference to the fact that the Medic looks quite similar to Egon Spengler, and that the Medigun and backpack he wears bear a resemblance to the Neutrona Wand and Proton Pack.
  • Ze Goggles' name is also a reference to the Medic's German accent making his words sound different, such as "Ze" instead of "the".
