15 Accidental Inventions You Can't Imagine Your Life Without

  • Some of the greatest inventions we use every day were created by accident. From the microwave to ice-cream cones, the accidental inventions on this list completely changed our way of life.
    Sometimes things don’t go according to plan. But every now and then, it’s for the better! American chemist Roy J. Plunkett was doing research for the company Dupont to make fridges safer and invented a strange substance that was non-reactive, non-stick, and resistant to extreme temperatures. We all know it as Teflon. John Pemberton was a pharmacist trying to find a way to get rid of headaches. He came up with a simple recipe consisting of two ingredients: coca leaves and cola nuts combined into a syrup. It was later mixed with soda by accident and became a huge hit. Dr. Spencer Silver, a chemist for 3M Company, was trying to create a super strong adhesive but what he got instead was a “low-tack” yet high-quality adhesive only strong enough to hold up a piece of paper but durable enough to be relocated multiple times without losing its stick. We all know and love it as Post-it notes today. The first antidepressant was discovered in 1957 and was supposed to be a cure for tuberculosis. Wilhelm Roentgen unintentionally put his hand in front of an electron-beam tube back in 1895 and noticed that the radiation passed through solid objects and body parts leaving a shadow. And now we have x-ray imaging!

    SUMMARY
    -British pharmacist John Walker noticed that one of the sticks he used to mix the chemicals had some substance on it that caught fire easily.
    -American chemist Roy J. Plunkett was trying to make fridges safer and accidentally created non-reactive, non-stick substance resistant to extreme temperatures.
    -New York chef George Crum decided to change the way he cooked potatoes to avoid customer complaints.
    -The ice cream booth at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis was running out of bowls and tried using waffles instead of them.
    -Pharmacist John Pemberton was trying to find a way to get rid of headaches and invented the syrup of coca leaves and cola nuts.
    -3M Company chemist failed to create a super strong adhesive but gave the world the famous sticky papers.
    -French chemist Édouard Bénédictus noticed that the beaker that didn’t shatter after falling off his desk had had a thin film of liquid plastic in it.
    -Charles Goodyear mixed rubber with sulfur and accidentally dropped it on a hot surface - that’s how vulcanized rubber was invented.
    -Plastic was accidentally created in search for a cheaper alternative for shellac but became something way more useful.
    -The first antidepressant was discovered in 1957 and was supposed to be a cure for tuberculosis.
    -Wilson Greatbatch added the wrong electronic component to what was supposed to be heartbeat recording gadget and created the pacemaker.
    -Scottish scientist Alexander Flemming noticed that mold killed the bacteria in a dish in his messy laboratory and saved a great number of lives with his invention of penicillin.
    -Wilhelm Roentgen unintentionally put his hand in front of an electron-beam tube back in 1895 … and invented x-ray imaging.
    -In 1942, Kodak researcher Harry Coover was working on transparent plastic for gun sights when he accidentally created an extremely adhesive substance that stuck to just about anything.
    -Navy radar specialist Percy Spencer noticed that the bar of chocolate in his pocket melted near a microwave-emitting magnetron. And this is how the microwave oven was invented in 1945!

    Back in about 1955 I saw an exhibit at the State Fair of Texas. The exhibit consisted of a machine about the same size as a travel trailer, or maybe 20 feet wide and 6 or more feet wide. This machine had a window or door area about the size of a 8 by 8 inch window, with a door, I watched as they baked a biscuit and an egg inside this new microwave.

    As a scientist and patented inventor I found this to be one of the most interesting videos I have ever seen. This is not the story of "mistakes" which we all make, but the story of realizing that those mistakes have a practical value. That recognition is what separates these innovations from millions of things in waste baskets in laboratories which I am very guilty of. Who knows what our scientists and engineers discard every day? We will never know unless we have people that realize something unintended.

    My mom worked at Raytheon when microwaves were discovered and developed. She told my dad about it and that they would be on the market soon, but he didn’t believe her. He didn’t believe something could heat food so fast. That was until she brought one home and demonstrated it. She didn’t help develop it or anything. She just worked there at the time. She was allowed to take one home and try it out, but had to return it. That’s because when they first came out they were extremely expensive and they couldn’t afford one. I wasn’t born yet. How cool that must have been though. To be there during the development of something as cutting edge as that was at the time.

      Actually the first man made plastic was Parkesine invented by Alexander Parkes in 1862. It was not very satisfactory but John and Isaiah Hyatt acquired the patent and developed an improved version that was called celluloid in the 1870-1872 time frame. Leo Baekeland didn't invent bakelite until 1907, quite a few years later. Incidentally, bakelite is a thermosetting material, but when the video is discussing bakelite the picture shown is of a thermoplastic material. Just one of many errors in this video.

As for antidepresants, many ppl cn not only live w out them, given to the wrong ppl cn actually cause ppl to show mental illness they wouldnt have w out them. They help w chemical imbalance. Which is what true depression is. But if u dont have a chemical imbalance n take them, it will cause a chemical imbalance. While some ppl may need antidepresants, others should absolutely never take them. I really cnt live w out my microwave though. Since im hypoglcimic. Meat is always made in the oven. But once the meat is cooked most everything i make is finnished off in the microwave to save on cooking time. To ensure i dont pass out from low blood sugar
