The Scoop: Technology is a wonderful thing. They are the reason why man’s living in the world gets bearable. However, not all products of technology can benefit man in a big way. Although some work to a few percentage of people. Check out the most useless inventions ever made.

There are many inventions being made as of today. People are amazing human beings to be able to discover and think of something that will take the human race a step towards the future.

There are gadgets that only the rich can afford and there are others that you can buy now, rich or not. However, like in the movies that can flop, there are also technologies that didn’t quite live up to the standards of people. In other words, those technologies are useless.

For those who love their shoes more than anything else, I’d recommend investing in some umbrella shoes. When it rains, you will be able to keep those lovely shoes from getting ruined by the rain! Not only that, you can also close the umbrellas if there’s is no rain.

Solar Powered Cigarette

No, I don’t mean that you’re cigarette is solar-powered giving you infinite smokes as long as you have sunlight. This invention is solar-powered because you are using the sun to light your cigarette. It may be just a magnifying glass stuck to a metal holder but I bet you didn’t think it can light up your cigarette, eh?

There’s Good Tech and There’s Useless Tech

There is no doubt that technology can make or break humanity. Yet it is inevitable that there will be crazy ideas from people who think they will be useful to mankind when it is the exact opposite. However, that’s what the people in the past said to aspiring inventors who became world leaders today.

No matter how useless these inventions are right now, you never know that they might spark someone’s imagination to make a better and non-useless variant in the near future.

So what do you think is the most useless inventions ever made?
