Treadmobile: Possibly the Worst Invention Ever

This is one of those creations that makes one think "seriously?"

The person who invented this had a vision. A vision to turn America into a country populated by fit, healthy, and happy people. It’s a good vision. And to realize that vision he created one of the most worthless machines we at STS have ever witnessed. It’s a treadmill with wheels. Obviously marketed to the consumer who wants to experience the sensation of running in place as he or she gently rolls down streets in a bizarre-looking contraption. It’s a small demographic, to be sure.

Or, for the very adventurous Treadmobile customer, there is the option of running-in-place-while-rolling with a friend! Seriously, we wish that instead of dedicating his time (we’re assuming a dude built the prototype) to solving the problem of not having a wheeled outdoor treadmil, he had worked on some really practical inventions we all need. Like the two-person standing backwards bicycle, or the built-it-yourself indoor fireworks kit.
