We all have areas that we excel at…well, hopefully we do. For some people, their area of specialty is being able to make ingenious engineering decisions!
So, from people who used basketballs for the worst ideas possible to individuals who repaired cars in truly baffling ways, here are 20 people who are too skilled to be stopped.

Modern problems sometimes require ramshackle solutions! I respect the lengths that they have gone to in order to keep cool.

Whoever has to sit on that bit of the couch really got the short straw. At least they still have a comfy armrest though!

I think that this would mainly work as a deterrent as it would shock and confuse anyone who broke into your car.

This seems like a great idea until it gets too heavy and it ends up crashing down to Earth!

All I can see now is a really excited face on the front of that wagon. I don’t know whether this would really work or not though.
“Custom Door Ding Protection.”
Is there any problem that a pool noodle cannot solve? Well, probably yes but that’s beside the point.
“So as it turns out those kids sandboxes are actually quite water capable.”
Another individual added, “This happened on Lake Monroe in Indiana about a week ago. The DNR folks were pretty cool and jokey with him. Apparently, this little boat was registered properly.”
