* Automotive pioneer [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha_Benz Bertha Benz]], partner and spouse of Karl Benz, was the first person to drive an automobile a significant distance, taking one of Karl's machines and two of their sons on a 66 mile journey from Mannheim to Pforzheim to visit her mother, [[RefugeInAudacity without telling anyone.]] After an all-day journey in which she had to refill the car with petroleum solvent bought from pharmacies, unblocked a fuel line with a hat pin, and used a garter to insulate a wire, she telegraphed her husband from Pforzheim. Rather than getting angry, Karl asked Bertha for her suggestions on improvements, including a lower gear for climbing hills and use of treated leather brake pads to increase stopping power. Her exploits led to greatly increased sales and recognition of Benz's machines.

* As bizarre as it may sound, Creator/{{Disney}} seems to be taking Tinker Bell, of all characters, in this direction with her CGI ''Franchise/DisneyFairies'' movies. The reasoning is actually fairly logical--why else would she be named ''Tinker'' Bell? Plus, the [[Literature/PeterPan novel]] ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'' is based on states that Tinker Bell is a tinker who mends the pots and pans. It's not like Disney [[OlderThanTheyThink pulled this out of nowhere]].
