‘Art imitates life’, but this time, it could be the other way round. Yes, after the countless times of watching Home Alone sequels as kids, we all did get this feeling to set-up our own booby-traps all over our room and house. Well, not many of us must have had parents patient enough to allow that. Never mind, you are an adult now and actually can do as you please under your roof. Something like the new anti-burglar doormat.
Basically, what the makers (which we presume must have made imaginative kids too) has done is simply made the doormat too freaking sticky. So when you leave your pretty home, you just have to place this on the inside. Now, if a burglar breaks in, he/she will step on the doormat and get stuck there for a miserable duration of time. The makers are hoping to piss-off the prospective thief, so much that it decides to leave.
Thought we do feel that the sticky doormat could have an opposite effect. The breaking-in fellow could be irritated enough to tear your place down. You must have well guessed which country this whacky product is coming from – Japan, where it will be launched this fall. The inventors here are on a different high altogether!
