Kinda eh with the way they did it. Smacks too much of American Idol for me but the best ideas were the refused ones but really I think the people who invented stuff have gone so far with their work, the doggie air conditioner, the constructable and reformable exercise kit, etc (except for the portable urinal raincoat...that was just odd and under developed) that they can say a big FU to the show, thanks for publicity and they're set. Also ones that stuck out the "Safety Wand" to which many said "It's a stick...".
Specialized sandbag shovel. A ride-on-the handle-bars bicycle mod, a bit ungangly though. Evan and Jaron of "Crazy For This Girl" with their pit-hider...eh...they're better at singing than inventing IMHO. A gun for smoking food. A 'gel onto toliet-paper dispenser for sensitive butts' good principle but doesn't sound like this one works. Tizzy Tube a little plastic contraption for kids to flail around in as punishment. It actually looked kinda fun and they got plenty of air but the judges called it "child abuse". Whatever...after no safety concerns over the two seater bike they have no argument. A solar-powered cooler which I liked and a lot of features in it but it was kinda bulky.
Here's some I was able to find online (planned to audition these were, but I only saw a few of them) that stuck out for me. The show was crap all in all because it was too tv. Should've been a Discovery Channel project rather than an American Idol wannabe.
