Good example of dramatic license. Those old-school sirens can't do that.............

Oddly enough, I saw the Sousaphone Hog Collar that allows the bell to rotate on a motorized collar. The direction is selected by the user and powered by a battery pack. Not something that I'd ever buy, nor recommend, but it's out there.
