:thumbup:


Computer Electrocutes Sweaty Student

A college student was so worried about his expenses he refused to turn on his air conditioner, even when he noticed it was hot enough to over heat his computer.
20 year old Wu, a student from Shanghai, decided instead to take off the computer case around his CPU to help cool it off.

His sweaty legs came into contact with the computer’s wiring and electrocuted him. Medical examiners found bruises on his legs and blood in his nostrils confirming death by electrocution.

Flying Alarm Clock

The catch is, the noisy alarm won't turn off until you retrieve the propeller and replace it on the base. Which means you have to get out of bed and search for it. How ingeniously irritating is that? And you won't be able to walk across the room in zombified-autopilot mode like you do when you try the old put-the-alarm-clock-over-there ploy, because the pesky propeller can land anywhere. Aargh!

Manual Tetris

Transparent Toaster

This transparent toaster allows you to see the bread while it is toasting so you’re never surprised by toast that comes out too dark. This idea is based on a transparent heating glass technology. It’s still just a concept but hopefully we will see it in stores in the near future.

Pepper Spray Stunning Ring

The Stunning Ring is a self-defense ring with replaceable pepper spray. It uses the strongest pepper spray formula available on the market today. The formula has the industry’s highest heat rating of 2 million SHU (compared to a jalapeno pepper, which is 5000 SHU), which severely affects the mucous membranes (eyes and respiratory systems). The ring has 2-3 one second burst and has an effective range of 12 inches.

Fake Sunroof


Just so you could look cool… at least until someone notices it’s a fake.

Toilet MP3


Japanese toilets are something very special.
Everything is raised automatically, the seat is heated and there's even a small Karcher at 180bar (ok, maybe not 180, but it's powerful) for the more intimate parts. And now there is an SD slot and an MP3 player!!! Fear not, it's not integrated into the seat but rather in the control system/computer of the toilet that is situated on the wall! Nice one Toto (the Japanese manufacturer)!
now it's up to you to play crap music in the toilet!

well there ya go. stay tuned for another installment :thumbup:

I like the transparent toaster, I will no longer always burn my toast if I had that and it looks wierd, but wouldn't the outside of the glass be hot too?

A good prototype in my view I would love one. If it is hot on the outside most people will think it's not and burn their hands on it and wan't steal my toast I like it.
