Imagine... an alarm clock that gives you a shock when you hit the snooze button.
A19-year-old college student came up with the idea after getting into the habit of hitting the snooze button on his alarm clock and then going back to sleep.
He tried to think of something which would force him out of bed and so invented one that administers a small electric shock via the snooze button. He calls it the 'Good Morning Sing N Shock'. It's expected to be available later this year.
