Here are some of the best useless, crazy and bizarre inventions of the Japanese, also called The Chindogu (stupid inventions, without bringing any offence to the inventors). To top it off, there is also a society, The Chindogu Society to be more exact which monitors these inventions quite stiffly as they must meet certain criteria: to be as useless as possible and for daily use. See any logic here? Well, you don’t really have to. Just enjoy!
