Helmet-insulator - one of the most absurd inventions of the XX century
Are you struggling to focus on work? Every little thing distracts you when you are trying to be productive? Then you just need the so-called "Isolator".
This is a quaint (and rather creepy) helmet, created in 1925 by Hugo Gernsbeck (1894 - 1967), an American inventor, writer, editor and publisher of magazines.
Gernsback claimed that the helmet reduced noise to 95%, and tiny glass holes guaranteed almost complete isolation from the outside world. The only drawback of the "Insulator", of course, was that the person in it looked absolutely ridiculous.
I would like to note that if such an anti-distracting helmet was worn by one of the employees of some modern office, then surely all its neighbors in the cabinet would certainly not have been up to the job.
