Top 10 Craziest Crowdfunding Projects


need money to build your flying bike
crowdfunding to the rescue welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top 10 craziest
crowdfunding projects don’t get me wrong
I love what I do and who I do but this
is a really unique opportunity to break
ground in the adult industry for this
list we’re taking a look at the
strangest most inventive and most
impractical ideas that have ever been
proposed on a crowdfunding website so
far we wanted the pool to be for
everybody so there are literally four
different pools stuck together in a
shape of a plus one pool for lounging
one pool for children one pool for laps
sports whether they were successful or
not doesn’t matter we’re just looking
for the most bizarre and memorable
projects so it’s for gamers like myself
so I wouldn’t say that I’m a social
casual gamer that plays farmville I mean
I like sophisticated experience number
10 grilled cheesus according to the
Bible back in the day Jesus managed to
feed 5,000 people with just five loaves
of bread and two fish now every panini
are toast based snack you eat can be
blessed with the spirit and the face of
the Son of God so I thought wouldn’t it
be great if we made a sandwich maker
that put the face of Jesus on the bread
and called it
grilled cheeses this Kickstarter project
is based around a relatively simple
sandwich press that required a modest
twenty five thousand dollars to bring
into production the only new ingredient
it really brings to the table however is
Jesus’s face imprinted on your bread
slices but it’s all in the hopes of
bringing some joy to family friends or
even your church group how does the
final product taste heavenly and when I
pulled the sandwich out I saw the face
of God literally I had made a grilled
cheesus number nine bug assault and I’m
the inventor of the bug assault let me
show you how it works
never has getting rid of insects seem so
badass this fly killing weapon works as
a miniature shotgun to humanely dispose
of small pests around the home and it
leaves only a small pile of table salt
and the intact carcass of the multi leg
or winged home invader in its path after
its crowdfunding success this insect
eradication device has spawned a
selection of other products to
supplement your household hunt for
various insect enemies
honestly we’re bugging out pity the fly
number 8 TARDIS in orbit we are faking a
TARDIS and we’re going to put it into
the payload bay of an actual commercial
rocket loyal fans dreams were turned
into reality sorta when they were given
the opportunity to send a replica of
Doctor Who’s wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey
spaceship into low-earth orbit but
actually from a nonlinear non-subjective
viewpoint it’s more like a big ball of
wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff although
the project has hit a number of snags
and has still yet to launch it remains
an incredibly ambitious idea to get the
TARDIS as far out of the atmosphere as
the International Space Station
depending on how much you pledged you
could have your name and a personalized
message saved to the hard drive of the
replica and just think about it this
artifact will likely last long after you
leave this earth rink and you’re dead
however the project got going in 2013
and as of early 2016
the Kickstarter site for the campaign
hadn’t been updated in a while so we may
have to achieve immortality another way
what’s there
the earliest estimate of the singularity
when man will be able to transfer his
consciousness into machines and achieve
immortality number 7 star citizen this
space simulation video game originally
asked for just $500,000 during its
campaign but as of early 2016
it has sourced over 100 million dollars
but I don’t want to build any old game I
want to build a universe I want to build
a game I always wanted to build but I
didn’t have the tools to do until now as
more and more money is thrown into its
production the expectations rise for the
project which promises to deliver a
galactic experience on a scale that has
never before been created I want to be
able to share this experience with my
friends I’m fight against real opponents
in space not just AI and I want this to
be as good or better than any other game
out there it’s claimed that you will
receive almost unlimited freedom to
determine the direction of your
adventure as you transition between
first-person space combat and fighting
and detailed mining and trading systems
while the alpha release of the first
module of gameplay was promising the
full game has lots of promises to
fulfill scanning
Gogi forward proximity alert landing
engaged proximity alert landing request
approved number six Greek bailout fund
in an admirable humanitarian effort to
aid the struggling nation of Greece
nearly 2 million euros were donated
towards a goal of 1.6 billion euros on
IndieGoGo although the Greek bailout
fund failed in its goal with the 2
million euros constituting zero percent
of the total required a second project
called the Greek crowd fund was started
that did not require the refund of any
money committed this second campaign
raised close to three hundred thousand
euros to help charities in Greece secure
jobs for citizens of the country the
closed globe globe left-right you can
see plenty of them none of them were
closed before the crisis the problems in
Greece persist today but these campaigns
perfectly demonstrate the impact people
can have when they come together to help
others maybe things have to get far
worse before they get better
number 5 + pool the floating swimming
pool in New York the island of Manhattan
is surrounded by water on all sides but
we can’t swim in it and possible will
allow that to happen
cleanly but safely on the surface this
may seem like a novel idea for a tourist
attraction but its benefits reach beyond
that it could also be crucial for
cleaning the waters around the Big Apple
and so the hope is that it actually gets
people thinking about yes this is water
yes we should be able to swim in a +
pool act as a giant filtration system to
sterilize the liquid around you to make
a totally safe pool that’s available to
all sorts of different swimmers the
filtration is the different part which
is layers of different types of material
and all they’re really doing is taking
out smaller and smaller contaminants
your little contribution can buy you a
tile that will go towards building the
pool while your name will forever be
part of incredibly important scientific
research that will hopefully
significantly improve the environment of
the city it’s shaped like a plus because
you wanted the pool to be for everybody
number four solar roadways solar
freaking roadway over two million
dollars has been sourced for a plan that
if put into place
could light up and heat roads to create
a far safer experience for motorists
cyclists and pedestrians even though
there have been a number of claims from
backers that the whole idea is a scam
after like one minute of critical
thinking I thought hang on no this just
doesn’t sound right these solar panel
roadways have gained interest from
councils and Road authorities convinced
by the legitimacy of the project if the
engineering kinks can be worked out this
could be the beginning of a whole new
era of eco-friendly energy that has the
potential to power the world every panel
has a series of LED lights on the
circuit board that can be programmed to
make landscape designs warning signs
parking lot configurations whatever
number three realize ministereth you can
already walk around the Hobbiton village
movie set but how would you like to live
and work in the capital of the kingdom
of Gondor ministers
Siddiqui that’s what a group of
architects were proposing to build for a
small fee of 1.85 billion pounds or
approximately 2.9 billion dollars
roll-off Condor is mine and no others
perhaps understandably the campaign came
nowhere close to its goal though it did
raise over 85,000 pounds which means
your dream of becoming a lord or lady of
ministereth will likely never be
realized didn’t think of it in this way
though the people behind the project
fully admitted that it had quote
virtually no chance of succeeding had
realized ministereth reached its
gargantuan target it surely could have
been a fully functioning tourist
attraction and home to hundreds of
middle-earth enthusiasts everywhere
number two
pornhub space program sex pleurae ssin
one of the biggest porn sites on the web
pornhub has been surprisingly active in
diversifying their business they run a
breast cancer awareness campaign and
even initiated a program that will see
over 15,000 trees planted this
particular project however would not
only have been the first-ever sex tape
shot in space but also claimed to be
valuable to science to assess how
certain appendages operate in
zero-gravity
it sadly fell well short of its 3.4
million dollar target but we still
expect to see much more from the adult
site in the future before we reveal our
number one pick here are some honorable
mentions here our project for now
without a doubt is lino riches head it
was a big break we raised the money on
Kickstarter we actually raised over 8
thousand pounds on Kickstarter to build
a giant inflatable sculpture to honor
his head and that was my search campaign
now after posted to fail after IndieGoGo
for rampage 3 failed and now Kickstarter
failed to and basically my message is
yourself
some ancient Greeks got notions of
grandeur
looks like Shaq daddy’s gonna have to
whoop some ass
number one potato salad a mere 10 bucks
was the asking price to create a modest
potato salad through Kickstarter but it
snowballed into a viral sensation that
included a potato salad party recipe
book and of course the affirmation salad
I want to do the most good that I can do
with this a similar project involving a
chicken burrito saw one man make enough
cash to graph how delicious it is to eat
the Mexican treat while skydiving the
potato salad still eclipsed that in
terms of money made earning over fifty
five thousand dollars so it stands as
the ultimate joke turned crowdfunding
success story thank you so much I could
never have done this without you and
your support do you agree with our list

and wonderful top 10s published every
