Ahh thanks to the forum ver 3 "Similar Threads" feature I've stumbled on this from the Useless facts (http://www.martialartsplanet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1510) thread.

And I know some of you lot probably may know about this but there's a society devoted to such inventions... the International Chindogu Society (http://www.chindogu.com/) (chindogu translet from the Japenese language to mean "weird tool" with set 'rules' on what qualifies such invention to be odd as well as a few examples:

Such as the Pneumatic sambuca hot-shot drink mixer. (http://www.chindogu.com/chindogu/sambuca.html) (well... who'd have thought Lego was so useful! :D)

Or the Back Scratcher's T-Shirt (http://www.chindogu.com/chindogu/chin1.html)

Pretty mad eh? (does make you wonder where we'd be without them.... maybe.)
