FidoBag
FidoBag is a hoax product by Samsung Italia which is presented as being a bag, covered with fur, and with a tail, which follows its owner, recognizing his or her whistle at distances up to 450 metres (1500 feet). When another person tries to steal it, FidoBag barks with intensity of 197.5 db. No mentions of this device are made on the homepage of Samsung Italia's website, no actual video of the bag is presented, and following link to fratelli Alfredson reveals a joke picture, leading to conclusions that the product was a hoax. Further evidence is that no device producing such a noise would be permitted for domestic usage. 130 db is the noise produced by jet launcher, the noise of 150 db causes instant perforation of eardrum. The scale is logarithmic, so 197.5 is more than 1000 times stronger than the jet launcher noise. External link
