In 1849, Tom Smith invented the Christmas cracker, a festive novelty that consists of a paper tube filled with small gifts, sweets, and a "bang" that occurs when it is pulled apart. The invention was inspired by traditional French bonbons, and Smith aimed to create a new way to enhance holiday celebrations. His innovation quickly gained popularity in England and remains a beloved part of Christmas festivities today.
