    Walking across the Niagara Gorge on a tightrope was a thing for awhile back in the 1850s. Check out Charles Blondin of France, the most famous. Among other stunts, he offered to carry a volunteer across on his back! Naturally, he got no takers, so he drafted his manager. Halfway across, he needed to rest, so he had his manager get down, stand on the rope until M. Blondin felt ready to continue, then had him climb back on his back and completed the trip.

    Aren’t a lot of inventions combining available components in new ways? The flashlight in question was probably obvious, but so was the light bulb. The trick with the light bulb was getting a filament that would last a reasonable length of time.

    Only on one side though.
