NHỮNG PHÁT MINH KỲ LẠ CŨA LỊCH SỮ

 NHỮNG PHÁT MINH KỲ LẠ CŨA LỊCH SỮ
 
 
From wooden swimming costumes to a straw radio hat, these are the nostalgic inventions from century's ago that never quite took off.
The collection of weird and wacky creations date as far back as the 1500s and show a range of bizarre and quirky ideas.
In one picture, it might seem that a gun is being fired at point blank range but it is in fact a camera. Designed in New York in 1938, the Revolver Gun takes a picture when you pull the trigger.
The show must go on: The bed piano especially designed for people who are confined to bed rest but still want to make music. It was created in the UK, in 1935

Another bizarre concept designed in the Netherlands in 1915 shows an inflatable boat with boots attached to the bottom, so passengers can use their legs as paddles.
A further strange invention created by L. Deth in 1926 was labeled the 'folding bridge for emergencies', created so people could cross rivers and streams in case of disaster.
Sadly these weird and wonderful inventions didn't quite make it into the shops for long enough for them to stick around and make it into the 21st century.
 
Perhaps one of the odder creations is the 1924 French car designed with a shovel attached to the front in order to catch stray pedestrians and reduce casualties within the bustling streets of Paris.
A wheelie good idea: A wheel motorcycle invented by Italian M. Goventosa de Udine, in 1931

Another image shows swimsuits made out of wood, apparently for the purpose of making it easier to swim.
If you've ever wondered what you did before the invention of the IPod, and how you ever managed to go about your boring day-to-day activities without the luxury of listening to music, look no further than the 1931 straw radio hat.
The hat was created by an American inventor for the purpose of allowing people to listen to music on the go, but at the time was discarded as a crazy idea, and quickly forgotten about.
Also among the collection of wacky inventions are a piano for the bedridden and a one wheel motor-cycle - with the maximum speed of a staggering 93mph
The gas war resistant pram is one of the only English inventions out of them all, which shows a lady testing a stroller that can withstand possible gas attacks.

One that was not so strange, but the testing method leaves a lot to be desired. Bulletproof glass, demonstrated by the New York police, 1931
