Number 10: Animal Ear Protector.
If you have a dog with long ears then this invention almost makes sense at first glance. Almost.
The animal Ear Protector was originally patented all the way back in 1979 and its design brief showed off how its tubular design will hold your pets ears out at its side rather than leaving them to fall into your beloved pets food or water bowl; getting them wet or covered in food which in turn could make you wet or covered in food.
The trouble with this invention is that once the 5 seconds of thought around this invention being a good idea have passed, you realize that you could just as easily put your dogs’ ears in toilet rolls (since that is essentially the invention) or even simpler than that you could just use a hair tie or even a clothes pin if it is such a big issue for you. You know, simple stuff you probably already have lying around the house that won’t cost you a thing.
Number 9: Toilet Snorkel.
A building being on fire is no joke! And one of the main concerns during a fire is getting clean air to breathe when the smoke begins to fill the air. 
Before we talk about the patented solution to do this…take a moment to like this video and subscribe to our channel! Here at Zero2Hero, we’d definitely appreciate it if you’d click that little notification bell, too, so you can always stay up to date on our newest videos!
So…building is on fire and you can’t breath smoke…enter the Toilet Snorkel which; as the name suggests, allows you to stick a flexible tube into your nearest toilet until the tube reaches the air pocket at the back of the pipe. You then slide the breather mask over your head and breathe in some nice sewer air rather than smoke; or at least that’s what its inventor thought is a good idea. 
It’s almost as if this devices creator watched the first Kingsman movie wherein they put pipes in a toilet to breathe in a flooding room. Except this was patented in 1982 and the Kingsman movie was still 2 decades away.
Aside from the thought of breathing in sewer air on top of being caught in a building burning; where in your home would you keep this device in the first place? And whatever was wrong with just staying low and finding your way to a room where you may actually be found by firemen. My vote…just avoid burning buildings to begin with!
Number 8: The Noodle Fan.
We could probably to an entire video on inventions to help you eat your Ramen noodles, but, the noodle fan is one that is especially useless. This invention features a fan that attaches to your chopsticks, and blows on your noodles to cool them down while you’re eating them. The fan, itself, only costs about $10, in the U.S., and takes a single AA battery to operate, but I honestly couldn’t imagine adding the extra weight and change in balance to the chop sticks to begin with!
I guess we really have to question how lazy we’ve become, as a society, that we can’t just blow on our noodles to cool them! Oh, and since we’re on the topic of food…
Number 7. The Banana Guard.
Are you tired of reaching your long awaited lunch break midway through your day, opening your lunch container or traditional brown paper bag and looking down in dismay at the squashed remains of what used to be a banana?
If this sounds like you then rest assured, because the world of inventors have teamed up and saved the day with their banana guard. A plastic container capable of keeping your banana safe from unwanted or unexpected squashing that could happen throughout your day.
The only questions that remain now are…how many times did this happen to the inventor that it became a genuine problem that needed solving? And does it come in different shapes and sizes to ensure that your banana will actually fit inside the container, or do you need to go through all your fruit until you can find one that fits perfectly in the holder? 
If only bananas naturally had a special type of skin or protective covering already that can be used to protect the fruit during office hours but then can be removed when it comes time to eat.
Number 6: Anti-Eating Face Mask.
Whether you are a restaurant owner and want to ensure that your staff are not eating all of your profits or have put on a few pounds and are in need of some drastic weight loss; this product is still probably not the best solution for you.
