Accidents don't count as inventions; they're discoveries. I'm sure if they do a list of "10 people who regretted their discoveries", your parents would be on the list.
How did you forget John Larson the inventor of the Polygraph (lie detector)? He literally referred to his invention as a "Frankenstein's Monster" when he saw how police departments were using it; let's just say there's good reason that polygraph test results are NOT admissible as evidence in a court of law these days.
They're not admissible because they are nowhere near accurate enough. A certain percentage of people can outright lie and that's not even going into the variability of results regarding the questions. If anything he should have felt bad for making a shitty invention.
Of course they are a shitty invention. Their functionality is based on emotion, something extremly arbitrary for every person. Someone can totally lie and get away with it, and an inocent person who is socially awkward and generally has problems speaking can be acused for nothing.
J. Robert Oppenhower The inventor of the Atom Bomb he even said with a grim expression on his face quoting (forgot his name), "I have become the destroyer of worlds."
SuperNova he also said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." But Einstien did regret helping with the reasearch after the war.
Kalashnikov didn't hate the AK-47. Even the quote you provided was him questioning his invention, not outright denouncing it. This quote sums it up nicely: "I'm proud of my invention, but I'm sad that it is used by terrorists."
There was an instance where he did say he wished that he created something useful that couldn't be used for violence like the lawn mower. It is known that he wanted to be an agricultural engi.
Kalashnikov's intentions were good. He had seen first hand what German troops armed with automatic weapons had done to his homeland and wanted to give his country a cheap, easy to use automatic weapon to defend against further attacks. The problem was that the Soviet Union exported and licensed the gun to pretty much every shithole country and their mother. I think most new AKs today are actually Chinese and not Russian. But that doesn't really matter, since even an old one will work fine, ensuring that used guns would always be available on black markets everywhere. In Africa they go for as little as 50 dollars.
Corristo89 There is even a Kalashnikov index to measure how much is stable and rich a country based on the cost and the quantity of kalashikovs in that country.
Think he means countries run by Governments that use imported weapons to invade neighbors and suppress their populations. A good example can be found in some African and Middle Eastern countries that have become highly unstable to to armed conflict such as civil wars or genocidal campaigns against ethnic groups. AK-47's are a cheap and reliable weapon and widely produced, so arming forces with them in those countries is easy.
I think even the Soviets preferred te Czech made ones over their own. However, seriously, if you compare the inner parts of an AK47 and an STG44 you see that the AK is not an invention, but a close copy. 4.bp.blogspot.com/-31zR0EjXWJY/VNioFjskCAI/AAAAAAAAYQ0/HCU_Hr-GqDA/s1600/stg44-1944g--sprava-ak-47-1946g.jpg
The inventor of the Thompson machine gun. He died taking the blame for people who died during prohibition when organized crime got many people killed. He never lived to see his creation do good in WWII
LBJHJP50 oh yeah and the world is just drowning in peace now that nukes exist. Yeah a few big countries with nukes aren’t fighting each other but fighting has not stopped by any means and now nukes are a constant goal of anyone looking to fuck shit up
This story is getting so old. The woman invented a spinning toy that is somewhat similar to fidget spinner, but is not really THAT similar. Even if she did patent it, this would not qualify. She also wasn't even trying to take credit for it, someone just started giving it to her.
I stopped at the AK one because if you look into the mans life he was a gunner on a soviet tank in the Second World War who wanted a better weapon for that role than the used at the time DPM-28 machine gun and soon saw the cheaply make and increasingly effective Ak become the weapon of terrorists and corrupt governments. A good contrast is the AR-15 rifle that most of NATO uses being seen as a "good guy gun" while the not copyrighted AK becoming the "bad guy gun." Mikail created his gun for his patriotic duty to His country and his country gave the guns to the most evil regimes known to history
@Bernoit yeah but it's the commentators statement about how he didn't feel sorry for the man that upset most of us, the man started working on the firearm because he saw he's friends and comrades killed in WW2 due to reliability issues with their current weapons and in some cases on the eastern front lack of weapons at all. When you see young men being rushed into a nazi machine gun without weapons with a pistol at their back so they don't run away, simply cause your government can't afford to arm them, your gonna want to make a cheap and reliable weapon to save them too.
All seriousness. John Oppenheimer & the Atomic bomb. While he did feel the bombings of Japan may have been necessary to end the war, though did say he wished they would have tried other means first. He felt that the blood of future victims were on his hands. He also felt the no country, even America, should have these weapons, or should at least work at keeping their numbers very low. This sentiment, among others, was used against him during McCarthyism.
Lmao withouth e=mc^2 the world you live in wouldn't exist. What next you think the creator of the wheel is somehow responsible for modern day tanks LUL?
deari900 No, perhaps you should get a book on modern physics, that way the ratio of modern physics books I have read, wait no own we'll make it simple on you, will be 54:1. Perhaps it should be the man who split the atom, not the man who discovered the Energy given off by an amount of mass times light speed squared.
Worth mentioning that, without the atomic bomb, the Allies planned to hit Japanese shores after they had been thoroughly doused with heavier than air nerve gas that would have seeped into their tunnel networks.
Iamishin yeah, but it was the reasearch on nuclear physics that he told them about and he only got upset after realising that the germans would never even make an atomic bomb which is why he told the Americans even saying years later, "Had I known that the Germans would not succeed in producing an atomic bomb, I would have never lifted a finger."
A list of 10 inventors which contains only 4 people who actually invented something. 10-Inventor 9-Writer 8-Musician 7-Composer 6-Everyone who's involved in making a movie 5-Dog breeder 4-Computer programmer 3-Weapon designer 2-Another writer 1-Inventor
Archangel 717 I said that the list only contained four inventors but decided to only list two as straight up inventors. Who the two others might be is up for you to decide.
I believe he is on about the huge update problem McAfee had in 2010 ""I want to apologize on behalf of McAfee and say that we're extremely sorry for any impact the faulty signature update file may have caused you and your organizations," said Barry McPherson, the security vendor's executive vice president of support and customer service, in a post to the company's blog near midnight yesterday."
Mr Paine he said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." But Einstien did regret helping.
It's not so bad, especially when covered in mud and run over by a truck and it still stays pretty stable. I'm rather fond of the AR myself as well, but an enemy isn't going to give you time to clean out your barrel if you happen to run into a problem with it...
He started working on his design before WW2 ended but finished it in 1947 He designed his rifle for the Russian army and the Russian army only. But becauze he lived in the Soviet Union his rifle was not actually his rifle but property of the state. It was basically Stalin's rifle so he gave it Mao Zhedong who gave to the Vietcong and North-Korea who both sold them on the blackmarket where they where picked up by African warmongers and Arabicgoatfuckers. He had nothing to say about how is rifle was used becauze it wasn't his at that piont. He didn't design it to be sold on the blackmarket or to get rich becauze he only started getting money for his creation after 1991 and only the ones that where legally sold to lawfull gunowners becauze they where the only ones that actually buyed from him.
Eli Whitney hated the cotton gin, its invention made slavery more profitable and thereby more popular. Also feel like you were a bit oversimplifying Kalashnikov, he made a weapon for his country's military, its not his fault that less scrupulous people got their hands on it
An Athenian in Ancient Greece called Perilaus invented and built something called "The Brazen Bull" or "Bull of Phalaris". The bull was in the form and size of an actual bull and had an acoustic apparatus that converted screams into the sound of a bull. The condemned were locked inside the device, and a fire was set under it, heating the metal until the person inside was roasted to death. After building it and presenting it to the ruler, Phalaris, the ruler became disgusted by the apparent joy Perilaus (who was expecting a reward for his work) was showing for the sort of noises those inside being burnt and tortured would make. Phalaris made Perilaus the 1st person for it to be used on. You can bet at that moment Perilaus utterly hated his invention. Funnily enough, when Phalaris was overthrown by the next tyrant, he shared the same fate; so he too would have hated the invention he commisioned! >XD
unfortunately, they underestimated the craven destructive instincts of man, along with its stubborn resilience to procreate and its boundless capacity to be suckered into dying on the frontlines for cash money.
Well Kalashnikov lived in the communist Soviet Union where money was considered some sort of ultimate evil so its not surprising he never got paid for it.
MyName Jeff The funny thing is that so far that invention saved millions. I say so far because it's likely that eventually a nuke will be used for purposes other than MAD strategies. Without such a surefire way of mutual lost, then the cold war would've never been cold. Not to mention that someone else would've eventually invented it anyway, who's to say that country wouldn't just steamroll the whole world with it. TBH I'm always a little surprised that the allies didn't capitalize on their monopoly on the terrifying weapon.
The video is about creators hating their creations. It doesn't matter how it was taken by the audience. That is literally everything on this list. People loved Creep, they loved Smooth cars etc. And the thing about someone else would've eventually invented it could be said to almost anything invention so far. Computers, Radio, TV, cars, space travel. Someone doesn't have to do it but they will eventually.
This needed to be made into two different lists: artists who hated their art and inventors who hated their inventions. There’s a fundamental ideological difference between the two: one is created to serve a functional purpose that makes something easier or more efficient, while the other is created to be a complete entity in and of itself for the purpose of entertainment and/or expression.
fun fact about Grieg's song - he also intended it to be listened to as 'part of a set', and for several decades refused to play it as a separate piece. Eventually he just caved in to popular demand.
:) Its a fake, made by some idiot. U dont even need to read the text , just take a look at "scans" of this "penitential letter". Will you decorate your letters in such manner with ur photoes and fancy frame?
Actually, the inventor of leaded gasoline defended his creation to the biter end, arguing that lead didn’t cause the problems everyone in the scientific community said they did, and was a die hard defender of the petrol industry’s use of leaded gasoline up until his death...from lead poisoning.
hall of the mountain king and ride of the valkyries, are two songs that you hear 15 seconds you hear the whole thing, catchy pop songs of the old school
So Robert Oppenheimer, David Bohm, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, Otto Frisch, Rudolf Peierls, Felix Bloch, Niels Bohr, Emilio Segre, James Franck, Enrico Fermi, Klaus Fuchs and Edward Teller are proud of the nuclear bomb?
Robert said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." And Einstien regretted helping with the reasearch.
AHK EDITS Einstien, yes but Robert said, "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right."
Fun fact: the reason people actually love "In The Hall Of The Mountain King" is because, for all the self-deprecation the composer poured into his creation, it is, in fact, a very well composed piece with a good, solid theme and motif. This is not unlike what has happened to countless other artists, who don't like what they produced, but what they produced is just too good not to be liked by most of the audience/viewers. Notably, Tchaikovsky hated "The Nutcracker" with a passion.
Kalashnikov didnt initially want to be a weapons designer, he wanted to build tractors. He saw his rifle and its creation as a necessary piece of equipment to give his countrymen the edge they needed to win the war. His design wasnt finished by the time the war ended, though so it saw later adoption. Kalashnikov came up with the design after hearing from frontline soldiers the problems and inadequacies of their rifles had. He set out to give his comrades something better so they were not outclassed by the Germans in every engagement.
whener von Braun said of his invention the missile "the rocket flew perfectly only it landed on the wrong planet" as he really was interested in space travel
That is one way of dying I must admit I have never imagined: being strangled by your own bed. Thanks for letting me know Whatculture, I'll be sure to watch out for that one.
If I was a weapon designer, and I developed a gun that was even half as commonly used and famous as the AK family, I would be proud to have made such a successful product. I can see why he would've seen it as a defensive weapon, but he made it to replace SMGs, weapons meant purely for rushing enemy positions, where close range fighting is most common. SMGs are meant for an offensive role, so when you make a weapon to replace them, inevitably it's going to be used as an offensive weapon.
Why is WhatCulture so butthurt about the Ak-47? Is inventing tools for personal self defense something bad now? Maybe, like most other inventors, maybe like Alfred Nobel, he thought the people would use it for the good, not for the bad.
treepig man Robert Oppenheimer is credited for, because he was lead scientist on the Manhattan Project, with being the inventor of the atomic bomb. Einstein however was, reportedly, on the team.
treepig man the atomic bomb would have actually killed less people compared to an invasion. Every man, woman and child in Japan was preparing to fight America to the death. and the firebombing of Tokyo only killed 26,000 less people and no one talks about that.
What about Santos Dumont? The inventor of airplanes... He hanged himself after seeing Airplanes being used for warfare in the Sao Paulo uprising, a short lived Brazilian civil war...
as a person who has great respect for the engineering marvel of the ak-47, the lieutenant-general's view of his creation hurts like a sword through my heart.
Mikhail Kalashnikov with absolutely not disappointed in the AK he has said on many occasions that he is actually proud of the AK-47 and has also said on many occasions that how people use his rifle is not his problem
Mr Pyotr Llyich Tchailkovsky or known as Пётр Ильи́ч Чайко́вский hated his song called "1812 Overture" and yes. The one orchestrated piece of classical music to feature Cannons was highly hated in his personal terms for being "Too loud!".
Mikhail Kalashnikov didn't invent the AK-47 he invented the Kalashnikov, the AK-47 is the American counterpart, it's basically a carbon copy with a wood grip rather than plastic.
Max Blanc the ar 15/ m16/m4 etc looks nothing like and has a complete different operating system AK has a gas piston operated and the standard Ar is direct impingement
Arther Conan Doyle - Sherlock Holmes. He actually wanted to write history novel, but because of the overwhelming popularity of Holmes, he was seen as the "writer of Sherlock Holmes". Every publisher paid better budget to him for writing the story of Holmes. He once said, "I believe that if I had never touched Holmes, who has tended to obscure my higher work, my position in literature would at the present moment be a more commanding one."
Kalashnikov didn't hate his AK. In fact he stated that his weapon is like a farming implement. People have used it for defense. Just because he questioned his guilt doesn't mean he actually hated the invention.
Huh. My parents aren't on this list?
Accidents don't count as inventions; they're discoveries.
I'm sure if they do a list of "10 people who regretted their discoveries", your parents would be on the list.
*POP!* goes the toddler’s head! I have a very dark sense of humor.
the foundng fathers aint on here
[WUT]Splatimus Timitus same over here
I was about to comment that
what about the guy who wrote the jaws book? he hated it because it made the world more scared of sharks, and shark deaths per year went up 20%
How did you forget John Larson the inventor of the Polygraph (lie detector)? He literally referred to his invention as a "Frankenstein's Monster" when he saw how police departments were using it; let's just say there's good reason that polygraph test results are NOT admissible as evidence in a court of law these days.
They're not admissible because they are nowhere near accurate enough. A certain percentage of people can outright lie and that's not even going into the variability of results regarding the questions. If anything he should have felt bad for making a shitty invention.
someone's been watching college humour
polygraph was supposed to be made for medical uses but it ended up with law enforcement and others.
Unless you live in Pennsylvania I believe. There they're mandatory.
Of course they are a shitty invention. Their functionality is based on emotion, something extremly arbitrary for every person. Someone can totally lie and get away with it, and an inocent person who is socially awkward and generally has problems speaking can be acused for nothing.
J. Robert Oppenhower
The inventor of the Atom Bomb
he even said with a grim expression on his face quoting (forgot his name),
"I have become the destroyer of worlds."
SuperNova He was quoting Vishnu from the Hindu scripture: "Now I am become Death, destroyer of worlds"
Every soldier chosen for Operation Downfall gave no fucks about his thoughts.
SuperNova he also said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." But Einstien did regret helping with the reasearch after the war.
Jordy Lopez. yup
You would think that was number one, right?
Kalashnikov didn't hate the AK-47. Even the quote you provided was him questioning his invention, not outright denouncing it. This quote sums it up nicely: "I'm proud of my invention, but I'm sad that it is used by terrorists."
He was disheartened that it was used by people with ill intentions, but he certainly had no remorse for creating it for the Motherland.
sik3xploit Exactly.
There was an instance where he did say he wished that he created something useful that couldn't be used for violence like the lawn mower. It is known that he wanted to be an agricultural engi.
Well his family did own a farm, until the Communists came and took it from them and messed it up.
I think same can be said to Nobel? I don't think he regrets creating TNT at all.
Kalashnikov's intentions were good. He had seen first hand what German troops armed with automatic weapons had done to his homeland and wanted to give his country a cheap, easy to use automatic weapon to defend against further attacks. The problem was that the Soviet Union exported and licensed the gun to pretty much every shithole country and their mother. I think most new AKs today are actually Chinese and not Russian. But that doesn't really matter, since even an old one will work fine, ensuring that used guns would always be available on black markets everywhere. In Africa they go for as little as 50 dollars.
Corristo89 There is even a Kalashnikov index to measure how much is stable and rich a country based on the cost and the quantity of kalashikovs in that country.
What do you mean every shithole? They gave weapons to countries who tried to defend themselves. I don't see it as a problem tbh
Think he means countries run by Governments that use imported weapons to invade neighbors and suppress their populations. A good example can be found in some African and Middle Eastern countries that have become highly unstable to to armed conflict such as civil wars or genocidal campaigns against ethnic groups. AK-47's are a cheap and reliable weapon and widely produced, so arming forces with them in those countries is easy.
I was talking about countries that the soviet union directly supported with weapons for example Vietnam
I think even the Soviets preferred te Czech made ones over their own.
However, seriously, if you compare the inner parts of an AK47 and an STG44 you see that the AK is not an invention, but a close copy. 4.bp.blogspot.com/-31zR0EjXWJY/VNioFjskCAI/AAAAAAAAYQ0/HCU_Hr-GqDA/s1600/stg44-1944g--sprava-ak-47-1946g.jpg
The inventor of the Thompson machine gun. He died taking the blame for people who died during prohibition when organized crime got many people killed. He never lived to see his creation do good in WWII
"Do good"
Perform well* not do good
hale storm "do good"
Stopping Nazis seems like a pretty good thing to me
drugabusingalcoholic yeah it is, but war is not, no matter what side you are in
"Dad, I don't need shoes that badly." Will forever be my favourite line
In nobels defence that is the goal of the nuclear deterent
LBJHJP50 oh yeah and the world is just drowning in peace now that nukes exist. Yeah a few big countries with nukes aren’t fighting each other but fighting has not stopped by any means and now nukes are a constant goal of anyone looking to fuck shit up
So at some point your forgot the premise of this whole video: "Inventors who hated heir creations" not "Inventors whose creations WE deplore".
That became apparent to me when he got to Mikhail Kalashnikov. The "fully automatic killing machine" comment stinks of what you described.
Austin Page
It may be kinda both, there are many people who like the AK designs.
Also,
=][= The Emperor Protects =][=
That he does noble Astartes, that he does.
Austin Page that's ridiculous and wrong. The comment is criticizing the inventor for thinking the gun would be used only as defense, which is insane.
st r I love AKs, they are awesome
the person who invented the original fidget spinner in the 80s doesnt want to be the creator of a dumb trend
Madeline Brigit actually I think its more of the fact they didnt patent it so they arent making any money
Well, It's more of, They had a patent and could no longer afford it. So they lost it.
Well that escalated quickly.
Dennis Basic Yep
This story is getting so old. The woman invented a spinning toy that is somewhat similar to fidget spinner, but is not really THAT similar. Even if she did patent it, this would not qualify. She also wasn't even trying to take credit for it, someone just started giving it to her.

I stopped at the AK one because if you look into the mans life he was a gunner on a soviet tank in the Second World War who wanted a better weapon for that role than the used at the time DPM-28 machine gun and soon saw the cheaply make and increasingly effective Ak become the weapon of terrorists and corrupt governments.

Mikail created his gun for his patriotic duty to His country and his country gave the guns to the most evil regimes known to history
Grimsly Actually it was US who gave AKs to terrorists like Mujahideen, not Soviet Union
I'm sure there were many countries that played a role in everyone in the world getting one.
Grimsly yes, but he stil expressed regrets. And thats what the list is about. It's not discussing wether it should or shouldn't be regreted.
@Bernoit yeah but it's the commentators statement about how he didn't feel sorry for the man that upset most of us, the man started working on the firearm because he saw he's friends and comrades killed in WW2 due to reliability issues with their current weapons and in some cases on the eastern front lack of weapons at all. When you see young men being rushed into a nazi machine gun without weapons with a pistol at their back so they don't run away, simply cause your government can't afford to arm them, your gonna want to make a cheap and reliable weapon to save them too.
Nobody in NATO uses AR-15's
Countries like US Canada and Denmark uses M16/M4 variants... thats about it
All seriousness. John Oppenheimer & the Atomic bomb. While he did feel the bombings of Japan may have been necessary to end the war, though did say he wished they would have tried other means first. He felt that the blood of future victims were on his hands. He also felt the no country, even America, should have these weapons, or should at least work at keeping their numbers very low. This sentiment, among others, was used against him during McCarthyism.
and probably along albert einstein. because without his e=mc² discovery there would've never been a nuke
schippes24 e=mc^2 is a very small and almost unrelated discovery to that if the atomic bomb.
Lmao withouth e=mc^2 the world you live in wouldn't exist. What next you think the creator of the wheel is somehow responsible for modern day tanks LUL?
deari900 No, perhaps you should get a book on modern physics, that way the ratio of modern physics books I have read, wait no own we'll make it simple on you, will be 54:1.

Worth mentioning that, without the atomic bomb, the Allies planned to hit Japanese shores after they had been thoroughly doused with heavier than air nerve gas that would have seeped into their tunnel networks.
Didn't Albert Einstein get all upset about telling the Americans about atomic bombs?
Iamishin yeah, but it was the reasearch on nuclear physics that he told them about and he only got upset after realising that the germans would never even make an atomic bomb which is why he told the Americans even saying years later, "Had I known that the Germans would not succeed in producing an atomic bomb, I would have never lifted a finger."

Somebody's petty
Not petty, I just think it's wrong to say that Rebecca black invented Friday.
Archangel 717 I said that the list only contained four inventors but decided to only list two as straight up inventors. Who the two others might be is up for you to decide.
so apparently a set janitor invented something?
Arthur Conan Doyle: Sherlock Holmes.
He'd HATE the fact that it's still so popular today, because it distracted everyone from his other works.
You forgot McAfee and the antivirus, he publicly apologised for it....
Can I see this apology? I can't find it anywhere
I believe he is on about the huge update problem McAfee had in 2010
""I want to apologize on behalf of McAfee and say that we're extremely sorry for any impact the faulty signature update file may have caused you and your organizations," said Barry McPherson, the security vendor's executive vice president of support and customer service, in a post to the company's blog near midnight yesterday."
Kind of....
I know this is a bit of a cliche, but Arthur Connan Doyle was Sherlock Holmes greatest hater.
Wanda Maximoff Not true. My best mate fucking loathes Everything about Holmes. That makes Doyle tied for #1.
I mean....Nobel wasn't wrong really he just had the scale wrong. Nukes stop big conflicts. His reasoning was sound just needed a bigger boom.
Nich White any of of those two countries has already enough to do it

Robert Oppenheimer
Mr Paine he said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." But Einstien did regret helping.
Jordy Lopez. Cause Einstein never wanted to help
Who else only came here for Kalashnikov?
Adam I I like Kalashnikov, both the guy, and the gun.
Jagannath Barman i hate the fanboys of the gun, as most of them have no idea how it works and they think its a gun god, which it isnt
ragingspacehippo It's neither as reliable as people make it to be, neither as inaccurate as haters try to point out
Jagannath Barman I always thought it was just a rifle that was easy to use.
It's not so bad, especially when covered in mud and run over by a truck and it still stays pretty stable. I'm rather fond of the AR myself as well, but an enemy isn't going to give you time to clean out your barrel if you happen to run into a problem with it...
Kalashnikov made the assault rifle to kill nazis. He had a damn good excuse.
correct me if im wrong, but doesnt the "47" in AK 47, stand for the year?.... and didnt WW2 End in 45?............ i could be wrong.
Well he was making it during WWII, but it was finished in 47.
Leonard Treman Idiot...
Dick Cheese I am not quite sure it was made in 47 I feel like 46 or 49 not completely sure but yes I agree.
He started working on his design before WW2 ended but finished it in 1947
He designed his rifle for the Russian army and the Russian army only.
But becauze he lived in the Soviet Union his rifle was not actually his rifle but property of the state. It was basically Stalin's rifle so he gave it Mao Zhedong who gave to the Vietcong and North-Korea who both sold them on the blackmarket where they where picked up by African warmongers and Arabicgoatfuckers.
He had nothing to say about how is rifle was used becauze it wasn't his at that piont. He didn't design it to be sold on the blackmarket or to get rich becauze he only started getting money for his creation after 1991 and only the ones that where legally sold to lawfull gunowners becauze they where the only ones that actually buyed from him.
Number one: my mom
;-;
Underrated.
Well played good Sir well played:)
DuraTheDoof DAMN!
you're not an invention, you're offspring of her
she invented durathedoof
and fuckin' hates him
Eli Whitney hated the cotton gin, its invention made slavery more profitable and thereby more popular. Also feel like you were a bit oversimplifying Kalashnikov, he made a weapon for his country's military, its not his fault that less scrupulous people got their hands on it
You missed out the inventor of 'What Culture'.
Matthew Cavanagh \m/
Metal up ya ass! \m/
An Athenian in Ancient Greece called Perilaus invented and built something called "The Brazen Bull" or "Bull of Phalaris". The bull was in the form and size of an actual bull and had an acoustic apparatus that converted screams into the sound of a bull. The condemned were locked inside the device, and a fire was set under it, heating the metal until the person inside was roasted to death. After building it and presenting it to the ruler, Phalaris, the ruler became disgusted by the apparent joy Perilaus (who was expecting a reward for his work) was showing for the sort of noises those inside being burnt and tortured would make.
Phalaris made Perilaus the 1st person for it to be used on. You can bet at that moment Perilaus utterly hated his invention.
Funnily enough, when Phalaris was overthrown by the next tyrant, he shared the same fate; so he too would have hated the invention he commisioned! >XD
He's never read Frankenstein you can tell. Nobel was thinking about TNT the same way we think about nuclear bombs so it's not that stupid.
Nick T same with the Gatling gun, Gatling hoped to expose the futility of war with a weapon that could mow down an incoming army.
I thought Nobel invented dynamite to help create safer working environments for miners or something?
Joseph Kim And that as well, yes.
unfortunately, they underestimated the craven destructive instincts of man, along with its stubborn resilience to procreate and its boundless capacity to be suckered into dying on the frontlines for cash money.
Nick T Who? The uploader?

Where's Filthy Frank and the Harlem Shake?
Oh no...but you're right. Fucking mey meys.
Garrick Groover Hair cake
he ate Hair cake ... do you really think he regrets the Harlem Shake ? ;)
Garrick Groover he made that thing?? I did not know that
police
jim davis himself said he hates garfield and only continues doing it for the money
No J. Robert Oppenheimer?
potsmokindino I know I thought about him before I even watched the video " I am become death, destroyer of worlds"
Exactly
Bailey Harrison bray wyatt?
He didn't invent the bomb though. he was project leader. 250.000 people worked on the Manhattan project
'Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds'
What about the maker of the show Arthur? He was quoted in saying "Black people ruin everything" in reference to the meme spam.
I feel sorry for James Blunt, for having to play You're Beautiful all the god damn time.
The AK is not a killing machine. it is a tool, like any other gun, and a tool is only as evil or destructive as the man or woman holding it.
More people with violent intensions have used it then other wise.
how ever that is a good point
Also i heard the guy didn't get paid for his invention
Well Kalashnikov lived in the communist Soviet Union where money was considered some sort of ultimate evil so its not surprising he never got paid for it.
Beyond Insanity
It's made for one thing and one thing only: killing. It is LITERALLY a killing machine.
Peter and Ben are so fucking hilarious 😂

Seriously? Oppenheimer would be the absolute number 1, he really regretted the atomic bomb.
MyName Jeff The funny thing is that so far that invention saved millions. I say so far because it's likely that eventually a nuke will be used for purposes other than MAD strategies. Without such a surefire way of mutual lost, then the cold war would've never been cold. Not to mention that someone else would've eventually invented it anyway, who's to say that country wouldn't just steamroll the whole world with it. TBH I'm always a little surprised that the allies didn't capitalize on their monopoly on the terrifying weapon.
The video is about creators hating their creations. It doesn't matter how it was taken by the audience. That is literally everything on this list. People loved Creep, they loved Smooth cars etc. And the thing about someone else would've eventually invented it could be said to almost anything invention so far. Computers, Radio, TV, cars, space travel. Someone doesn't have to do it but they will eventually.
Mark Saved millions but has the potential threat to kill Billions......
The Nuke is far from a good invention......
Its good as long as they are not used.
Thank you. Dear god I was begginging to lose hope. I was wondering if people even knew who he was lol
This needed to be made into two different lists: artists who hated their art and inventors who hated their inventions. There’s a fundamental ideological difference between the two: one is created to serve a functional purpose that makes something easier or more efficient, while the other is created to be a complete entity in and of itself for the purpose of entertainment and/or expression.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle grew to hate Holmes as well.
fun fact about Grieg's song - he also intended it to be listened to as 'part of a set', and for several decades refused to play it as a separate piece. Eventually he just caved in to popular demand.
"Invented the AK-47" oh that'll open a debate that'll only get worse haha!
Daniel Smerald Oh God I know
zzz43452 He did change his mind after regretting though. Also, I think inventor of Pepsi is a bigger killer than him.
+zzz43452 holy shit dude is that an opinion about your favorite rifle? Put that shit away are you trying to get torn to fucking spreads?
:)
Its a fake, made by some idiot. U dont even need to read the text , just take a look at "scans" of this "penitential letter". Will you decorate your letters in such manner with ur photoes and fancy frame?
Orgazmaat what's a fake?
Why is everyone in this video a Canadian from south park
Joel Shumacher: Batman and Robin
You're completely right, that movie was so horrible he's still apologizing for it 20 years later. lol
Luis Umana Ryan Reynolds in Green lantern
Luis Umana and george clooney still apologizes to this day
Bat nipples.
Actually, the inventor of leaded gasoline defended his creation to the biter end, arguing that lead didn’t cause the problems everyone in the scientific community said they did, and was a die hard defender of the petrol industry’s use of leaded gasoline up until his death...from lead poisoning.
Love this guy
hall of the mountain king and ride of the valkyries, are two songs that you hear 15 seconds you hear the whole thing, catchy pop songs of the old school
So Robert Oppenheimer, David Bohm, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, Otto Frisch, Rudolf Peierls, Felix Bloch, Niels Bohr, Emilio Segre, James Franck, Enrico Fermi, Klaus Fuchs and Edward Teller are proud of the nuclear bomb?
Well, Klaus Fuchs might've been considering he was a Soviet spy, so he probably enjoyed serving his country
Robert said "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right." And Einstien regretted helping with the reasearch.
Oppenheimer/Einstein and the Atomic Bomb
AHK EDITS Einstien, yes but Robert said, "I have no remorse about the making of the bomb… As for how we used it, I understand why it happened and appreciate with what nobility those men with whom I'd worked made their decision. But I do not have the feeling that it was done right."
Jordy Lopez. Sorry but saying it was not used right means it didn’t like it having no remorse for making is not the same as liking it
I was going to say my mother should be on this list but I'm too late to make the joke.
Meat Dragon time travel joke??
No, the joke was made by about 50 other people so I figured theres no point.
Fun fact: the reason people actually love "In The Hall Of The Mountain King" is because, for all the self-deprecation the composer poured into his creation, it is, in fact, a very well composed piece with a good, solid theme and motif. This is not unlike what has happened to countless other artists, who don't like what they produced, but what they produced is just too good not to be liked by most of the audience/viewers. Notably, Tchaikovsky hated "The Nutcracker" with a passion.
who invented the prostrate exam?🤔
Richard K Ablin i believe
Alias Fakename your mum

Skipper: "Kowalski, have ever invented anything that didn't eventually threaten to destroy us all?"
Kowalski: "Hmm, let me think...ah...no."
I think Oppenheimer was a little let down in 1945. Just saying.
Kalashnikov didnt initially want to be a weapons designer, he wanted to build tractors. He saw his rifle and its creation as a necessary piece of equipment to give his countrymen the edge they needed to win the war. His design wasnt finished by the time the war ended, though so it saw later adoption. Kalashnikov came up with the design after hearing from frontline soldiers the problems and inadequacies of their rifles had. He set out to give his comrades something better so they were not outclassed by the Germans in every engagement.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Sherlock Homes?
OMG THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME THAT SONG I WAS LOOKING FOR THAT FOR 3 YEARS!!!! (Edvard Greig)
Yahtzee and "PC Gaming Master Race"
whener von Braun said of his invention the missile "the rocket flew perfectly only it landed on the wrong planet" as he really was interested in space travel
santos drumont suicided him self when he heard what his invention (the airplane) did in ww1.
... I see some flaws here....
That is one way of dying I must admit I have never imagined: being strangled by your own bed. Thanks for letting me know Whatculture, I'll be sure to watch out for that one.
mikhail kalashnikov is so lucky he has an AK as his last name!
.... the gun is named after him.
If I was a weapon designer, and I developed a gun that was even half as commonly used and famous as the AK family, I would be proud to have made such a successful product. I can see why he would've seen it as a defensive weapon, but he made it to replace SMGs, weapons meant purely for rushing enemy positions, where close range fighting is most common. SMGs are meant for an offensive role, so when you make a weapon to replace them, inevitably it's going to be used as an offensive weapon.
The Ak-47 is basically a copy of a German STG-44. So homeboy didn't so much create as copy.
AK is not basically a copy of the STG44.
Two different guns.
james staggs That's true
If dynamite was meant to make peace, then it did a hell of a peace
I agree with Radiohead: "Creep" is a shit song.
Andy B Idk, maybe by Radiohead standards but In general
Andy B in my opinion there's a much better song by the same name, check out creep by stone temple pilots it's pretty good
Oppenhiemer and the atom bomb? "I havd become death, destroyer of worlds."
number one the dab
The Super Maria Brothers movie was fucking awesome.
Why is WhatCulture so butthurt about the Ak-47?
Is inventing tools for personal self defense something bad now? Maybe, like most other inventors, maybe like Alfred Nobel, he thought the people would use it for the good, not for the bad.
Why do you think?
@peter grafkind
By stopping someone who initially tries to harm you...
Oh, and they're fun.
Only Americans consider guns anything other than killing machines.
does anyone find it weird that his hand is backwards?
you forgot about Tony Stark
The story about dynamite should really be a lesson for nuclear weapons being used as deterrents
Daurde - Sandstorm.
"Dad i dont need shoes that badly"
😂😂😂😂
What about the director if batman v superman
How could Agatha hate Poirot?
He's the best detective ever man.
kalashnikov is proud of his legacy...........
I laughed to hard at "i don't need shoes that badly
what about the scientists that made the nuclear bomb
Eientsien is the one who lead to the invention ofnthe nuclear bomb
treepig man Robert Oppenheimer is credited for, because he was lead scientist on the Manhattan Project, with being the inventor of the atomic bomb. Einstein however was, reportedly, on the team.
treepig man
the atomic bomb would have actually killed less people compared to an invasion. Every man, woman and child in Japan was preparing to fight America to the death. and the firebombing of Tokyo only killed 26,000 less people and no one talks about that.
What about Santos Dumont? The inventor of airplanes... He hanged himself after seeing Airplanes being used for warfare in the Sao Paulo uprising, a short lived Brazilian civil war...
#1 *Parents*
as a person who has great respect for the engineering marvel of the ak-47, the lieutenant-general's view of his creation hurts like a sword through my heart.
the first comments are the worst
Mikhail Kalashnikov with absolutely not disappointed in the AK he has said on many occasions that he is actually proud of the AK-47 and has also said on many occasions that how people use his rifle is not his problem
Zyklon B?
The Selfie-Stick is missing from this list ;)
i was waiting for albert eistien and nuculer power
Mr Pyotr Llyich Tchailkovsky or known as Пётр Ильи́ч Чайко́вский hated his song called "1812 Overture" and yes. The one orchestrated piece of classical music to feature Cannons was highly hated in his personal terms for being "Too loud!".
What about Sarah Winchester
Winchester just owned a gun factory, they didn't get deeply into gun design.
Yes but Sarah Winchester went insane and built a crazy labyrinth house to ward off the spirits of all the people the winchester rifles killed, lol.
DINGO she was just insane. Hate to say it but she was definitely mentally unstable.
The guy who invented the Brazen Bull was the first person to die in it, can't imagine he liked his invention then.
The creator of the ak-47 ( I can't spell his name :/) is Russian Jesus
Михаил Калашников .
I didn't know there was a Russian Jesus.
Bose-Einstein I thought there was only 2 jesus'. Black and Jewish.
Mikhail Kalashnikov didn't invent the AK-47 he invented the Kalashnikov, the AK-47 is the American counterpart, it's basically a carbon copy with a wood grip rather than plastic.
Max Blanc the ar 15/ m16/m4 etc looks nothing like and has a complete different operating system AK has a gas piston operated and the standard Ar is direct impingement
Arther Conan Doyle - Sherlock Holmes.
He actually wanted to write history novel, but because of the overwhelming popularity of Holmes, he was seen as the "writer of Sherlock Holmes". Every publisher paid better budget to him for writing the story of Holmes.
He once said, "I believe that if I had never touched Holmes, who has tended to obscure my higher work, my position in literature would at the present moment be a more commanding one."
11. God.
There needs to be a Memo sent to weapon Development Inventors saying "This will not Deterrent Destruction only Escalate it more"
I invented Donald Trump but he escaped from the lab and I'm really, really sorry.
32shumble thanks, he must have been a failed one..
Oh so that's also what happened to my experiment in sentient hair pieces...
Why didn't you track it down and kill it? You should be doubly sorry for not correcting your error before it was too late.
I've put my man on it. His name is Van Helsing-Mueller.
Don’t be, that was the greatest election EVER
Kalashnikov didn't hate his AK. In fact he stated that his weapon is like a farming implement. People have used it for defense. Just because he questioned his guilt doesn't mean he actually hated the invention.
