It's time to go on an adventure to discover the accidental origin stories behind some of the world's most popular objects.



In this exciting discovery of accidents, you will discover:

And much more.



These stories will show you that mistakes and failures don't have to mean the end of your dream. In fact, they could just be the beginning.
