With a ping and a pong the fiddle-strings broke!

the cow jumped over the Moon,

And the little dog laughed to see such fun,

And the Saturday dish went off at a run

with the silver Sunday spoon.

The round Moon rolled behind the hill

as the Sun raised up her head.

She hardly believed her fiery eyes;

For though it was day, to her surprise

they all went back to bed!

When you put rubber on a frying pan you reduce risk of transmitable disease

When you put rubber on a flying pan, it turns into a Goodyear blimp.

Did the magical flying pan grant him 3 wishes?

*Hey kids, I'm mixing some rubber and sulfur in the kitchen, y'all want a grilled cheese sandwich while I'm in here?*

How can you improve tube tires decades before they were invented? Check the dates

No claim was made that Goodyear invented tube tires.

>was working to **improve** those tube tires

Tube tires were invented by Tomson / dunlop not Goodyear

Not the entirely random event that the brevity of your post might suggest to some. It was an accident that occurred [during his long pursuit of that specific end](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulcanization#:~:text=Charles%20Goodyear%2C%20in,an%20industrial%20scale). For the TLDNR / never follow a link crowd -

>Charles Goodyear, **in the 1830s**, was working to improve those tube tires. He tried heating up rubber in order to mix other chemicals with it. This seemed to harden and improve the rubber, though this was due to the heating itself and not the chemicals used. Not realizing this, he repeatedly ran into setbacks when his announced hardening formulas did not work consistently. **One day in 1839**, when trying to mix rubber with sulfur, Goodyear accidentally dropped the mixture in a hot frying pan. To his astonishment, instead of melting further or vaporizing, the rubber remained firm and, as he increased the heat, the rubber became harder. Goodyear quickly worked out a consistent

so he buried flying kitchenware technology just to keep selling his tires? I knew 9/11 was an inside job

Who knows what he would have invented if he had thrown it in his flying saucer!

Rubberized flying pans preceded the modern metallic flying saucers

Edit:  I am an idiot.  It was a joke.

Why?  I need the little money I have.  I'm disabled and get very little to live on.

Flying pans must be perfect for cooking the Flying Spaghetti Monster!

Ah, a poet and a song writer, that makes sense.   
I just know byron from stories of debauchery

Because he was a famous poet but without much tech knowledge. So no, not very random. In fact he's huge in the history of literature.

Why the random lord from 2/3 centuries ago?

These "accidents" generally happen to people who, at least somewhat, are capable or realizing the significance of the accident.


I bet if that accident happened to Lord Byron or to Taylor Swift they wouldn't even click-in as to what they were looking at.

Damn it, Jim! He was a chemist, not a philosopher.

That was a lucky shot - I guess it was flying low?

I wish reddit still downvoted posts with spelling errors in their title to oblivion.

His wife was so POed he didn't even see the flying pan coming. All he remembers is seeing stars when he came to.

This seems sensationalized to garner attention.

TIL in 1839, Charles Goodyear accidentally invented Vulcanization when he dropped some rubber in a flying pan
