Top 10 DUMBEST Inventions of All Time


[Music]
there is no such thing as a bad idea
well except for these welcome to
watchmojo.com and today we’re counting
down our picks for the top ten dumbest
inventions and it increases your cup
size to full cups but then it goes down
yeah for this list we’re taking a look
at products that sound too bizarre to
exist but they do people are waiting to
tee off there’s no restroom out here has
this happened to you I’ve got the
perfect gift
number 10 Hawaii chair and I’m gonna get
yours what a minute
what what does this have to do with
Hawaii if you’re stuck in an office all
day finding the time to work out can be
a struggle the Hawaii chair also known
as the hula chair is intended to kill
two birds with one stone with the
appearance of a regular desk chair this
invention possesses a rotating seat that
mimics a hula dance this is truly the
machine that takes the work out of your
workout users can exercise their whole
body without even standing up at least
that’s what the infomercial implies as
far as fitness equipment goes the Hawaii
chair is hardly a substitute for the
treadmill or elliptical on top of that
it’s too rambunctious to function in a
quiet workplace environment
imagine answering the phone or using the
computer while riding a tilt-a-whirl
it’s bound to end badly if you can sit
you can get fit the Hawaii chain number
nine lipstick stencil do you have
trouble applying lipstick well even if
you do we would not recommend wasting
your money on a lipstick stencil you’re
a whore where your whore makeup your
whore this Japanese product is supposed
to prevent lipstick from bleeding
outside the lines of your lips by
strapping the uncomfortable headgear to
your face
you can use the mouth shaped outline to
keep lipstick inside the lip area
Cousteau Mota evolution
I’m on the bed apparently the people
behind this ridiculous invention have
never heard of lipliner aside from being
inefficient the lipstick stencil looks
like it was designed to restrain
Hannibal Lecter
apparently Lois had murdered a transient
and done things with the skin of course
if you ever come across one of these
eyesores you can always use it to carve
a jack-o-lantern for Halloween number 8
the flow be a lot of kids like trendy or
haircuts they like it very short here
mm-hmm and that long right or any
variation on that getting a haircut
might be a hassle but buying a Flowbee
isn’t exactly a superior alternative
invented by Ricky hunt and patented in
1986 this vacuum cleaner attachment
claims that it allows users to give
themselves quick precise haircuts
now you can maintain your favorite
haircuts at all time the problem is it’s
not very quick or precise and some would
argue that it doesn’t even really cut
hair while many have complained that
flow bees are ineffective two million
devices were sold by the year 2000 this
invention is so notorious that it was
actually parodied in Wayne’s World just
a trim don’t buzz me all right
instead of the flow bee though it was
appropriately titled the suck cut as you
can see it cuts as it but it certainly
does suck number seven the better
marriage blanket it’s the problem in the
marriage bed that no one likes to talk
about maybe that’s why they call it
silent but deadly couples get divorced
for a variety of reasons although we
highly doubt flatulence is among the
leading causes how many times have you
farted in bed and held my head under the
covers that’s completely different yet
different mom this product is so
ludicrous that you would swear it’s from
a fake Saturday Night Live commercial
offending molecules are absorbed before
anyone knows they’re there we assure you
though the better marriage blanket is
all too real if you or your spouse lets
one rip in bed this comforter will
miraculously absorb the fart it even
contains a layer of carbon activated
fabric
does that mean it can also be used as
protection against chemical warfare
regardless if you want to freshen up
your stinky love life maybe just lay off
the beans and asparagus okay oh my god
oh my god oh my gosh don’t do that what
am i doing don’t far in the bed number
six the wine rack this is the wine rag
some people call it a beer brah
but we’re a little classier around here
so this is the wine rack Jever wish
there were an easier way to drink wine
on the go then the wine rack is the
brassiere for you this outrageous
invention is kind of like a camel back
for vino fans instead of a backpack that
carries water however it’s a bra that
carries wine we wear things but the wine
rack can hold up to 25 ounces which is
essentially one bottle of wine if that’s
not enough to quench your thirst a wine
glass holder necklace can also come in
handy of course if you use either of
these items on a regular basis you may
want to check into the nearest rehab
facility or at least attend an a a
meeting and you can be talking to a
teacher’ ago you got it what you know or
good kick baby and you’re sucking on the
thing number five the euro club this is
a trademark patent pending product that
functions as a self-contained receptacle
you’re on a golf course having the
greatest game of your life when all of a
sudden nature calls fear not the euro
club will resolve your potty emergency
bullets a Ponzi emergency the ads for
the euro club promise a quote discreet
sanitary way for your urgent relief
however there’s nothing discreet about
peeing into a golf club with receptacle
built into the grip the uroclub comes
with a towel and appears that you are
just checking out your club leak-proof
easy to clean and no embarrassing
moments covering yourself with a towel
isn’t going to fool anybody either
it’s also worth pointing out that public
urination is illegal in most places
let’s let’s not talk about illegal
mister I like to pee on little boys
who’s at the playground in the middle of
the night nah that’s even weirder
you’re better off seeking out the
nearest toilet especially if it comes
equipped with a potty putter seriously
why do inventors keep associating golf
with the bathroom leak-proof easy to
clean and no embarrassing moments order
now and get a second euro Club for half
price the Euro club the only Club in
your bag guaranteed to keep you out of
the woods number four the neck Pro slide
on the head halter and tighten by
pulling the chin straps forward and
attaching to the velcro around the chin
at first glance this invention might
look like a torture device or a really
weird sex toy believe it or not it’s
actually intended to reduce neck pain
but we wouldn’t be surprised if somebody
used the neck Pro for auto-erotic
asphyxiation
here’s how this traction device
supposedly works first attach the
bracket to a door second sit up against
the closed door and put your head in the
chin straps third pull the cord to
adjust tension finally sit and relax for
several minutes although we’re not sure
how anybody could possibly relax under
these circumstances sorry but we’ll take
our chances with a chiropractor over
this accident waiting to happen well
it’s not funny
number three the car exhaust grill why
stop at a drive-thru restaurant when you
can just fire up the car exhaust grill
sure you might contract a fatal disease
but at least the burger will taste
rancid invented by Ruhollah Marek poor
of Iran this device attaches to your
car’s exhaust pipe
there’s no exhaust pipe that’s right
thanks to Ed Begley Jr x’ electric motor
after putting a raw beefy patty inside
the grill hi you need to do is drive
around and let the heat cook the meat
while the creator’s claim that the fumes
will travel away from the burger we have
a hard time believing this accessory is
100% sanitary apply it to the inside of
the exhaust pipe
[Music]
and you should have enough time to walk
away before the fun start suddenly fast
food is starting to sound like a healthy
option number two the goldfish Walker if
you have a goldfish you should avoid
putting its tank in direct sunlight
this not only creates a large amount of
algae but can also cause the water
temperature to rise and overheat your
fish we wonder if Mick Madden knew this
when he invented the goldfish Walker a
middle-aged metal worker from northern
England Madden felt that his two little
fishies Malcolm and Ethel needed to get
out and see the world Klaus you’re on
outside fish now
not cool droll I’m a fish thus he
attached a fishbowl to a trolley to
create a portable aquarium
now his fishy friends can experience the
great outdoors like dogs although it’s
safe to say that Madden is the real fish
out of water
don’t forget it daddy I can’t take a
goldfish on a walk before we get to our
top pick here are some honorable or in
this case dishonorable mentions a little
darling Andy you are so precious now
let’s take a look that push maintains a
more natural shape while resting on your
side no straps no under wires no
constraint
[Music]
number one the baby cage thank you
uh-huh is this for when we buy the baby
dog oh it’s a baby cage it’s a good one
too
we’re as shocked as you are that this
invention actually existed initially
patented by Emma Reid in 1922 the baby
cage wasn’t a best-seller in America gee
isn’t that surprising
in 1937 however this deathtrap was
distributed to the Chelsea baby club in
London really bad I promise you well if
it’s a baby in a cage the idea was to
attach these cages to apartment windows
so infants could get some fresh air
after all it’s not like parents can just
take their babies for a stroll outside
toddlers are much better off playing in
a wired cage with their fate literally
hanging in the balance seriously though
if a parent were caught with a baby cage
in this day and age we have a feeling
that Child Protective Services would get
a call I think you might once you look
up there
do you agree with our list what do you
think is the dumbest invention ever
when finished just pull the chin straps
away from the velcro for more
entertaining top 10s published every day
