Question

Help answer this question below.

I know this linked photo is fake, of course, but what I am wondering is, do you think the day will come when someone will create an umbrella that does NOT invert in high winds? NOTHING is more embarrassing, than when THAT happens!

    By the time the creation is complete,the item will be so heavy that the average person won't want to carry one.

    They do make an umbrella that has vents to let air escape. It is on that well known shopping channel qvc.
    The theory is that letting air escape prevents the inverting.+5

    I hate to tell you, Mensan, but there are probably things that are a LOT more embarrassing than that!

    Could she be Mary Poppins's daughter?
    Embarrassing? How about if the rear seam of your trousers splits open, and you're not wearing underwear?
    Or you stand up to give a lecture and your fly is unzipped?

    Cute pic, but you are right,..you feel kind of foolish when you are under an umbrella in a rain, anyway. When it is a real windy gusher and the damn thing inverts...that is really the pits. Somebody should DO something!

    (a) There is such an umbrella - it is dome shaped
    (b) You have led a charmed life if you think the blowing inside out of an umbrella is the most embarassing thing that can happen.
