| dbo:abstract | Une boite sauteuse est un objet de farces et attrapes prenant la forme d'un objet existant (boite de cacahuètes, pot de moutarde, etc.) mais qui contient un ressort entouré de serpentin (lequel peut avoir un imprimé de type « peau de serpent ») lequel saute hors de la boite et effraie la victime de la blague. La boite sauteuse a été inventée par vers 1915. La femme de Adams se serait plainte du fait que le pot de confiture n’était pas proprement fermé et que celui-ci collait. Inspiré par cela, Adams inventa un petit serpent avec un ressort et une fausse peau et l'introduisit dans le pot afin qu'il « saute » une fois le couvercle retiré. (fr) A snake nut can is a practical joke device that closely resembles a can of nuts, but contains a long wire spring covered by a cloth or vinyl sheath, printed like snake skin, which leaps out of the can and startles the unsuspecting victim. The item was invented by Samuel Sorensen Adams of the S.S. Adams Co. circa 1915. Adams' wife Emily had been complaining about the jam jar, saying that it wasn't properly closed or that it was sticky. Adams, inspired by her nagging, then invented a spring snake - a coil of wire wrapped in a cloth skin, and compressed the two-foot snake into a little jam jar so that it would jump out when the lid was removed. The snake jam jar then evolved into a whole array of products, including the snake peanut brittle can, the snake mint can, and the best-selling snake nut can. In the 1990s Adams' grandson produced snake potato chips. (en) |
