32 Shark Tank Inventions That Are Wildly Popular on Amazon

There are some things — like the iPhone, say, or the art of Prancercise — that mere mortals cannot hope to invent. These are not those inventions.

You've seen the show Shark Tank, right? If you haven't (I'm very disappointed in you), it basically features up-and-coming inventors trying to get a group of people to invest in their sometimes-wacky but always entertaining products.

I've assembled 32 of the most brilliantly simple inventions ever seen on the show — from brownie pans that make every piece delicious, to the greatest sponges on earth. Some are wild successes, some, not so much. But every last one will make you wonder: why didn't I think of that?
