20 Hilarious Inventors Who Tried Their Best, And That's What Matters...Probably

I like that they were trying to spice up the activity of mowing the lawn, but there has to be safer ways of doing this. Just holding a beer in one hand and sipping it occasionally is probably safer!

I wonder if these are buttered on the inside, just to make them even more comfortable? Still, $100 seems like a lot of dough for these sneakers. Get it... "dough"? You are bloody welcome for that.

Okay, I have seen a lot of lazy fixes in my time, most of which were perpetrated by me, but this has got to be one of the laziest things I have ever laid eyes on. It is just majestic.

I do not think that I know enough about electronics to understand the extent of how dangerous this is. However, I am going to go out on a limb and assume that this ended with a small fire?

Actually, this looks like it is a lot more adjustable than most car wing-mirrors out there. Also, you can always change the color of the mirror if you get bored of having a pink wing-mirror!

This is the perfect vehicle for the impending zombie apocalypse. The primary reason that I imagine this exists at the moment though is to ensure that their kids can get to school no matter what the weather!

I think that the only problem here would be how annoying the flashing light would be. Also, I can't imagine that this would be very quiet compared to most ordinary ceiling fans, right?

Now this is some top tier engineering. The excessive use of duct tape is always a great design aesthetic. This guy should consider selling this invention — just as it is, no streamlining or improvements necessary. It could also double up as a back scratcher.

Clearly the people of "Leatherhead" in England do not have an innate affinity with actual leather. I mean, $150?! I really want to know if they managed to sell this. Something tells me that they might have just ended up chucking it out.

I just cannot get over that girl's expression. She is perfectly channeling everyone's thoughts about what this guy is doing. I don't know what the point of this is, but I bet he had a sore neck afterwards.

One individual wrote, "Tiki torches are designed for this? Boy, have I been using mine wrong!" I dread to think how many trees this person has set on fire while trying to get down high-hanging fruit!

Is there anything that cannot be fixed and/or repaired with a bag of rice? Busted phone? Bag of rice! Busted VR headset? Bag of rice! Busted knee? Bag of rice! Crippling existentialism? Bag of rice!

So, their answer to a problem is to just cover it in tin foil and pretend that it doesn't exist? Well, this is the greatest idea I have ever heard. Excuse me while I go and cover all of my life's worries in tin foil!

The previous owner could at least have painted the handle of this wrench yellow so that it would seamlessly blend in with the rest! That is some pretty shaky-looking welding as well.

I hope that there was not a sudden gust of wind brewing on the horizon, not just for this guy's sake but for the sake of everyone else in the immediate vicinity.

I know that there is a lot wrong with this, but I cannot get over the fact that he installed a PS2. What a blast from the past that is.

Perhaps the person who installed this was trying to notify the room's occupants that there was some sort of hidden treasure underneath this room?

Now it just looks as though they are driving while looking through a periscope. Surely there has to be a better quick fix than this? Even if it just involves using an old rag.

This seems like the sort of thing that Mr Bean would do to fix his car. Although, it does also strike me as something that a kidnapper would employ in order to make it even harder to break out of their trunk.

One individual did suggest, "Couldn't you swap in a key that you use less often, and then use the post-it on the less used key?" However, that seems like it will just lead to more disasters!
