There’s an old expression that says “You don’t need to reinvent the wheel,” meaning that you don’t need to create something that already exists. While this is a good rule of thumb, sometimes, someone reinvents something that already exists, but improves it in a way no one expects. These inventions are just that – re-inventions that are simply better than the original. |

5. Mess-free toilet uncloggerCurrently available only in South Korea, this invention uses a similar principle to that of a plunger, but creates more pressure and prevents mess from leaking out in the process. You simply apply the plastic sheet to the toilet, the adhesive seals the bowl and when you flush - the pressure inflates the plastic. Then, with a couple of pushes - your toilet is unclogged! |
