Submarines and helicopters seem to rather popular and I do need one of those fancy swimming masks. I'd like to see the USA and Canada edition of DIY inventions.

Sun Jifa raises his prosthetic forearms as he poses for a picture in Yong Ji county, Jilin province, on September 25, 2012. Chinese farmer Sun, who lost his forearms in a dynamite fishing accident 32 years ago...

Fishing with Dynamite... lol

It's funny but not really fair to laugh at them, they are far more creative than I would ever be.

Some of those are pretty neat actually.

And still better than anything Arash has come up with.

I give them props. A lot of that stuff was really ingenious.
Good for them!

Nah not really. Some of the stuff was pretty comical but hey for some random farmer who's never even heard of the internetz to come up with these inventions you've got to admire his resourcefulness and creativity.

What have you invented? I'd bet if any of us got dropped into a 3rd world country without the knowledge/money we have we'd be screwed!
