Has anything worthwhile EVER been invented by a Mexican?

Tortilla chips.

tacos

I knew a mexican guy that I worked with who got fired for shitting in a washing machine, in the back of our delivery truck while parked in front of the customers house.

So yes they invented the portable toilet, that also happens to wash clothes!

Tequila obviously

Juan Lozano, a Mexican inventor with a lifelong obsession with jet packs, invented the Rocket Belt.

Here are 11 Kiwi inventions that you probably didn't know about. New Zealand inventors have a proud record of creating things the rest of the world really needs.

Among the most famous Kiwi inventions are:

Splitting the atom

Kiwi scientist Baron Ernest Rutherford was the first in the world to split the atom in 1919. He was awarded a Nobel Prize for his work with radioactivity.

Flying

Possibly the most impactful Kiwi invention of the 20th century. Many New Zealanders claim it was a Kiwi who first got an aircraft off the ground. There is evidence that Timaru's Richard Pearse was working on powered flight concepts from 1899 and built his first two-cylinder petrol engine by 1902 for powered flight. The Wright brothers got the plaudits but flying was a Kiwi invention.

Bungy
Probably the most famous Kiwi invention of the modern world. Daredevil AJ Hackett pioneered the bungy jump, opening the world's first commercial site in 1988, the year after he illegally leapt from the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Certainly the most hair-rasing Kiwi invention!

Jogging
Did you know this was Kiwi invention? Running coach Arthur Lydiard developed a training technique for runners that the world now calls jogging. It helped win Olympic gold medals for his proteges Peter Snell and Murray Halberg at the 1960 Rome Olympics.

Electric fences
An early version of the electric fence was developed by Kiwi inventor William Gallagher in 1937. He used an ignition coil from his car and a Meccano set to make the first electric fence to add to the list of famous Kiwi inventions.

Jetpack
Christchurch inventor Glenn Martin has developed a jet pack that enables fliers to stay aloft for half an hour. He launch the jetpack at the Oshkosh air show in the United States in July 2008 and his company is now taking orders.

Disposable syringe
One of the most important Kiwi inventions in the world of public health. Timaru's Colin Murdoch came up with the idea for the disposable syringe, a simple device that has saved millions of lives and helped diabetes sufferers around the world. He also conceived the tranquiliser dart gun for use on animals.

Amphibious vehicle
Alan Gibbs has invented the world's first high speed sports vehicle that travels on water as well as land. It was launched to worldwide publicity when Sir Richard Branson drove the Aquada across the Thames river in London.

Jet boats
Farmer William Hamilton invented the world's first propellerless jet boat in 1953. He also is responsible for inventing the hay lift, an advanced air compressor and a machine that smooths ice on skating rinks.

Referee's whistle
Most definitely a famous Kiwi invention but few know it came about when New Zealand referee William Atack became the first person in the world to use a whistle to stop a game of sport in 1884.

Eggbeater
Kiwi Ernest Godward was a serial inventor, coming up with designs for eggbeats, burglar-proof windows and the world's first spiral hair pin. He sold the patent for the hair pin for $20,000, a huge amount in 1901.

Kiwi is my least favorite fruit.

Slovakia sounds like some thing i shitted out after getting food poisoning from eating bad indian food.

Mexicans are cooler than most Americans, and are certainly cooler than you.

Is your ex-wife a Mexican?

I think he got beat up by a Mexican.

Shit man, the fact that I have no idea where the fuck your piece of shit country even is on the globe just go's to show how utterly crap it is.

Now fuck off you Slovakian donkey.

Go find some vodka.

All those centuries the Aztecs and Mayans used little axles and wheels on toys, but never implemented them on any sort of machinery, or for any practical usage.

But they did invent and perfect assembly line cardiac excision.

Maybe he just found out he is half-mexican and can't handle it.

Or maybe i just don't like Alcoholic Slovakian Scum.

Yeah that's it.

Or maybe his buddies were laughing at him because he swallowed the worm at the bottom of the tequila bottle.

this was a good invention

How to keep a truck running with baling wire and the Piñata.

While I have extreme issues with illegals, Mexicans can be incredibly warm and kind people.

Their sense of style, I find very unattractive. Their dance, art, architecture, really everything about their style is what I can only explain as coarse

Then again they have a knack for turning a cardboard shack into a fiesta.

Creation and invention historically has not come from societies that cannot support the arts. Maybe now there is more wealth in Mexico they may move toward innovation. Then again, the Chinese have never been able to come close to German engineering so I have my doubts about Mexico

Mexicans are looked down on by the rest of the Spanish speaking countries and are looked on as hillbillies and criminals.

You should have gone for the bonus troll bonus by suggesting the US is one of those Spanish speaking countries...

why are people starting on mexicans today ... no blacks or muslims here ...

oh well the only thing i hate about mexicans is the drug cartels and the killing ... some of them are devils ...

thats the only thing i hate about any race tbh ..

Hey Bro, how is your racist little white ass tonight ?
