QUIZ: The Worst Inventions Ever Made (That Actually Got Built, Or Did They)
from The I Digress Podcast · host The I Digress Podcast
Dog bombs. Horse treadmill trains. Coffins with periscopes. A group shaving machine. Some inventions are brilliant. These are absolutely not.In this history-meets-hysteria episode of The I Digress Podcast, Ringo throws us into the worst investment round in history – think Shark Tank, but lethal. From Soviet war dogs that accidentally bombed their own trenches to the "youth serum" that straight-up killed its inventor, it’s a comedic catalogue of chaos. Also featuring: a bullet-loaded mousetrap, a lighthouse that wiped out its builder mid-storm, and a childbirth invention that flings babies out at 7G. Yes, really. Laugh, cringe, question humanity.Spotify Tags: failed inventions, weird patents, bizarre history, invention disasters, funny podcast, dark humour, accidental deaths, history facts, educational comedy, Shark Tank fails
