Invention made by chance part - III

There are various invention that made by mistakes but become most famous here are some of them.

1. POPSICLE

Believe it or not, the popsicle's creator was none other than an 11-year-old boy named Frank Epperson, who simply mixed some soda powder with water & left it out overnight with the stirrer still in entirely by accident. When he woke up in the morning, Epperson decided to lick his frozen soda blend & he found that it actually tasted, well, pretty delicious. Originally, the young entrepreneur declared his concoction the Epsicle (combining the word icicle with his name), but he later amended the name to Popsicle, as children would refer to the ice pops as "Pop's 'Sicle" anyway.

2. TEFLON

Teflone is the genius invention that changed the way we cook, clean and groom. The man who discovered the product - Roy J. Plunkett did so completed by accident. The scientist was working at the Dupont Company's Jackson Laboratory in 1938 researching refrigerants (which help to supply air conditioning & refrigeration) when he noticed that some of his gas had turned into a white powder. After some testing, Plunkett concluded that the substance was heat-resistant with low surface friction, giving it the perfect properties for it's many uses as we see today in form of Teflon.

3. ICE CREAM CONE

Today, ice cream fanatics have a choice between enjoying their treat in a cup or a cone, but that wasn't always the case. According to the stories, it wasn't until the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair that someone came up with the idea to spin a wafer-like waffle into the shape of a cone, and this idea was birthed simply out of necessity. When an ice cream vendor at the fair run out of dishes to serve his ice cream in, the vendor next to him-named Ernest A. Hamwi came up with the idea to shape his waffles into cones as vessels for the frozen treat.
