WiiMote Football Doesn’t Seem Like Such a Good Idea

thumb

I don’t know if this Wiimote Football was conceived by some sort of consortium of television manufacturers or whatnot but this just does not seem like a good idea at all. If you thought a relatively small controller that you can completely wrap your fingers around was likely to be thrown at your ...

Firefly Chandelier

thumb

I really like the design of this firefly chandelier. Designed by Christopher Moulder, the lamp is actually called Random Orbit but is created to evoke the imagery of circling fireflies. This $1550 high end designer lighting fixture has 21 ten watt Xenon bulbs suspended by phosphor bronze loops radiating from the center ...

Life Sized Super Mario Piranha Plant

If you’ve ever played Super Mario Bros. (and that “if” is probably completely unnecessary, I mean is there actually anyone out there reading this blog who hasn’t played it?) then you’re quite familiar with the giant piranha plants that attempt to get our hero plumber throughout the game.

Deviant Art user Kalapusa has made his own giant sized version of the killer plants out of acrylics, clay, and a wire skeleton to keep it stiff. The inside of the mouth is really freaky looking:

One Laptop Per Child Computer Microwave Melted into a Mutant Slug Thing

thumb

What would happen if you put a $200 OLPC (one laptop per child) computer in the microwave? Professional microwave artist Kenny Irwin has created this OLPC microwaved mutant slug by doing just that. And he’s selling it on eBay for a mere $26,001. While that seems like a lot, 80% is ...

iPhone Hammock Concept

thumb

This is awesome! They need to make this thing, stat! It’s a conceptual drawing for an iPod Hammock dock. The idea is so that when the phone vibrates it doesn’t rattle the owner’s desk in an annoying fashion. An umbrella that functions as a solar charger could be added too. I don’t ...

Travel Blanket with a Gadget Pocket is Like a Snuggie for Geeks

thumb

We’re big fans of the Snuggie here at Craziest Gadgets. We love how ridiculously stupid it is and laugh at those foolish enough to pay and actually “wear” a blanket with sleeves. We mock those who opt for the inferior Snuggie alternatives like the Slanket, Snuggler, and Toasty Wrap. Yet somehow a blanket ...

Han Solo Frozen in Carbonite Cake

thumb

There are few fates worse than being frozen in carbonite for eternity by Jabba the Hutt but it wouldn’t really be too bad if it was made out of delicious chocolate cake. You could just eat your way out. Of course by the time you escaped you might be the size of Jabba ...

Alien LED Jumper Cables

thumb

Having your car battery die is just the worst, isn’t it? You’ve got to flag down another car, hope that one of you has jumper cables and then hook up a pair of wires directly to a live battery. I hate when that happens to my limo and my driver has to go ...
