Hey awesome gymnast:my favourite inventor at the moment is James Dyson. He has just opened a science school at my university looking at the science of design. He made the dyson vacuum cleaner, that loads of people use today! It works like a cyclone and doesn’t lose any suction when it picks up dirt. He’s made an amazing hand dryer called an air blade that uses a small sheet of moving air to remove water than instead of evaporating water from our hands with heat. It’s really fast and super hygenic when we wash our hands. He also made a fan without any blades called air multiplier- they look so cool!
