Someone Finally Invented A Head Hammock So You Could Fall Asleep On A Plane
Do you suffer from getting no sleep while traveling? Well, it looks like Paula Blankenship has finally found a solution for that!
After many sleepless trips, Paula decided it was enough and she created the NodPod, aka the head hammock. “The reason it’s hard to rest or sleep while traveling is because you can’t keep your head, neck and back perpendicular and at a 90-degree angle similar to how you sleep in bed at night. So the Nod pillow solves this problem by doing just that,” Paula told Bored Panda. Plus, the cord is designed so that it doesn’t cover the TV screen for the passenger behind you! So, whether you’re traveling by plane, by bus, by train or car – it’s time to say goodbye to those sleepless trips and awkwardly waking up on your fellow passenger. You can pre-order the NodPod for currently $25 on Kickstarter.

Share on FacebookHow many people can you p**s off mid air by waiting till they are asleep and then untie one of the cords?
What about safety concerns? Your head strapped in an accident (for better or worse)...
It has a breakaway in case of sudden stops, and I guess, turbulence, though I've never been in turbulence as violent as an emergency stop

I use a JetComfy pillow for my flights. No worries about decapitation! JETCOMFY_O...bd7e86.jpg
Totally need it, I'll look like the total dork with that and my Snuggie.... The WTF Blanket
Looks amazing, but what about the people in the seat behind you on a plane. Won't the cord cover their TV screens?
The bigger issue is that if there are small children in the row behind, the cord is likely to be pulled.

They're not nrw at all. People with disabilities who can't hold their head up have similar
HA! until that bratty little 10 year old sitting behind you decides to untie the strings. Can we say "whip lash" ?
Plane, train, yes but not in a car, far too dangerous to have anything that close to your neck in case of a accident even a small one.
They're not new at all. People with disabilities who can't hold their head up have similar.
Need one for child car seats so when they fall asleep their head doesn't drop
I'd feel as though I were being choked. Can't even wear necklaces for too long!
It looks to me as though it might also be helpful for folks with sleep apnea--so long as they were sitting well propped up.
Unless you're SHORT, exactly how is a head hammock going to work when seat-backs are SHORTER than your head? Ref: coach20sea...id-6x2.jpg
A cervical collar pretty much does the same thing. I know, I wore one for 4 months after neck surgery. AND you don't need a tall seat back to use it :)
