Super glue was invented during World War II, in 1942, when a man named Harry Coover Jr. was researching varieties of glue for the purpose of making clear plastic gun sights. He never managed to figure out how to create better gun sights and ended up abandoning the project.

Due to the fact he was working at Kodak at the time, he got the company to manufacture and sell the first super glue.
