9. Anti-Eating Face Mask
Essentially a metal cage that attaches to your face to prevent those of us lacking any self-control from ingesting solid foods, the Anti-Eating Face Mask is pretty straightforward, but there must be easier ways of losing that extra winter weight.



I think we all know someone who could use one of those....


Whats missing from this list are some of those amazingly dangerous early 20th century inventions/ideas.... Free X-Ray anyone

The conversation between the inventor and his wife went something like, "NO dear, I swear, these aren't for that...they're...so you...don't smudge...the face of an iPhone. Yeah, that's it!"
