Man Invents Glasses to Give Shorter People a Height Advantage

Amazon is the perfect place to find a whole host of products, whether you're in the market for a new set of pots and pans, or just stocking up on AAA batteries. You'll probably end up grabbing a whole range of other weirdly wonderful, yet completely practical things alongside those that you originally intended to purchase.

And now onto the main event that might be available on Amazon very soon...

We've all been in that situation at a gig where there's a six-foot giant standing in front of us, blocking our entire view. But now, this new invention might mean you never have to worry about that problem ever again.

London-based designer, Dominic Wilcox, is the inventor of the "One Foot Tal" glasses.

Wilcox has created the perfect product - a pair of glasses that allow you to see 30.5cm above the wearer's normal eye level. That's a whole foot!

This is the science behind it.

The glasses were created using a sheet of mirrored acrylic with a 45-degree arc to ensure that the smaller mirror can reflect the larger mirror, which is positioned outwards, giving whoever wears them a whole other view. Got that?  A little confusing, I know.

It has to be one of the most genius ideas, right?

According to Dezeen, his inspiration came from the "small women" that he had seen at gigs. Despite not being able to see the band because of other people's heads, including his own, they were still dancing. It may be a little difficult to dance with these one-foot glasses on your head, but I'm sure that's a risk we're all willing to take.

And as usual, Twitter is going crazy over the news.

A lot of people on Twitter are thanking Wilcox for his genius invention. This user (@jetseteatrepeat) describes it as a "game changer". And we can't help but agree! Now we'll be able to see over people's heads at gigs. Thank you for your service, Dominic.
