We all know the things that exist had their beginning. Somebody somewhere thought of a brilliant idea and turned it into a remarkable invention or we’re grateful for.
Some people invented an idea in theoretical term and others turned the theory into a workable output. Thus, when we talk about invention it includes those who thought about an idea e.g a parachute but never went beyond the theory.
Consequently, do you know who invented the following? The list includes both male and female Inventors.

Thank you too, Robin. You did well.
Unlike Norman, I didn’t spot the trick until it was too late. Therefore only 6 correct due to complete guesses that turned out to be wrong!
Thanks Indexer for playing the quiz. I thought of putting the correct choices in the first place.
I got 10 out of 11 right, but only because I quickly copped on to the fact that it was always the first option that was correct! Great idea for a quiz, though 🙂
Congrats Norman for playing the quiz and realising the the first choices were the correct answers.
