7 Useful Inventions Of Today That Were Discovered By Mistake by 0ubenji(m): 7:01am On Jul 16, 2016 |
Maximum inventions have been made by scientists and researchers who had some idea in their brains which cooked up to create some extraordinary inventions. Amazingly in many cases things were invented by accident and unbelievingly now we cannot even think our life without it. Everyone on this list may not be a scientist but they had enough luck to invent the product. --------------------------------------------------------------------- #1- Coca –Cola A pharmacist towards the end of the 19th century named John Pemberton invented a medicine with cocaine in it which healed your headache in no time. Even when the cocaine was removed from the list of ingredients the customers found it to be very delicious and therefore it was made available to the people in the form of a beverage what we know in short as Coke.
