Funny Invention Ideas

With the advanced level of technology and resources at our disposal today, more and more people are coming up with some great invention ideas in the hope that their creation will be recognized as the nest big thing. It stupefies the mind sometimes to see how much effort people put into some mind numbing creations which have absolutely no use in our lives.

Some inventions serve as a stepping stone to creating something great, but some inventions are just plain ridiculous, and the dustbin is the only place where they belong. Here we'll look at some humorous inventions which the makers thought were going to make them famous, but all they ended up doing was serve as a great paperweight.

Some Really Funny Invention Ideas

They say necessity is the mother of all inventions, and going by that, these creations mentioned here must surely be orphans. There was absolutely no need to spend resources and time creating these heaps of worthless rubbish, but someone did take the trouble.

Ear Mirror
Someone actually came up with a way to look at the earwax in your ear by using two mirrors attached on a metal rod. Now, this is something that may help you clear out that unwanted wax, but who in their right minds has the free time to create a device to view earwax.

Metal Detecting Sandals
Now unless you're a pirate treading on beaches replete with metallic treasure boxes, you will have no use for this device. Then again, pirates don't wear sandals. Someone actually thought that attaching a metal detector on a sandal is a good idea, and this product surely has to be a part of this funny product ideas list.

Necktie Fan
Some Japanese person came up with the bright idea of a USB powered necktie fan, to stay cool and refreshed throughout the day. This sounds like an excellent idea, but when you actually see the device, you may want to change your mind. It would be far easier to just take off the necktie instead.

LED Umbrella
For people who like walking in dark alleys when it is raining, there is now a crazy invention with an LED powered light on the handle of the umbrella, which lights up like a light saber from Star Wars. Apart from the obvious danger of getting electrocuted in the rain, this is very useful for muggers all around the world to find their next victim on a dark rainy night.

Toilet Headrest
Being a man is all about testosterone, hunting and missing the urinal while peeing. That's why someone made a headrest to attach above a urinal. If your head stays on this rest while peeing, your aim will not falter. A fairly useless invention which will only make you stand slanted while you are peeing, which is never a good idea.

Kick Yourself Apparatus
The crowning glory of one man's life work is a 'kick yourself apparatus' that can come very handy indeed. All you have to do is bend down and push a button, and you will be bombarded by kicks on your bottom with a mechanical foot wearing a shoe of your choice. Now this may be useful for some people's sexual fetishes, but this inventor has just made an utter ass of himself with this highly weird invention.

Hilary Clinton Nut Cracker
There is something very wrong with the mind of the person who created a nut cracker, where you can crack the nuts by squeezing it between the legs of a Hilary Clinton wooden figure. The lesser said about this, the better.

Non Contact Thermometer
You may wonder how a device can take someone's temperature without even touching them. Obviously, this was not a question that plagued the mind of the inventor of that very device. Use this device on your baby or child very cautiously though, because of its obvious inaccuracy.

Phone Fingers
Users of the Apple iPhone and other touchscreen phones cried out for a way to not get fingerprints on their smartphones. The answer was one of the most humorous inventions, a glove which covers only one finger at a time, in a manner similar to latex protection. Try walking down the street with these gloves rolled on 2 of your fingers, and you'll realize how terribly worthless they are.

Pubic Hair Color
It's true, someone actually sells pubic hair color kits and labels it as one of the new invention ideas. Why would someone want to do that at all, is the question they should have asked themselves.

These were just the tip of the iceberg, because if you look around in greater detail, you'll find a number of worthless and funny invention ideas. There are millions of people who are ready to stoop to unbelievably stupid levels, but sooner or later, one of them will strike gold.
