These Technologies Almost Threatened Humans

Some devices from the past might seriously scare you. Ever heard of a beauty calibrator? It was a device from the 1930s that claimed to measure a person's facial features and compare them to an "ideal" template. Then there's the dimple maker, a contraption from the early 20th century designed to help people achieve the perfect smile by creating dimples on their cheeks. It involved squeezing the skin with metal clamps, which sounds painful and, frankly, unnecessary. The Shoe-Fitting Fluoroscope was a popular gadget in the mid-20th century used to measure people's feet for shoes. It worked by emitting X-rays, allowing salespeople to see the bones inside the foot. And there's more of those, so stay tuned!

[@islandgal500]

I think someone has to earn a pin by writing something very witty and not by asking for favors or not even making an effort at using your 'Bright Side'.
