Thomas CRAPPER popularized the toilet.
He didn't invent the toilet, but his company, Crapper & Co, was a popular plumbing company in the late 1800s. In the 1880s Windsor Castle, Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey all had Crapper brand products. Crapper also patented a lot of toilet innovations, including the flushing mechanism that is still being used today.
Among some of his less successful patents was an early version of an automatic flushing mechanism. Unfortunately, the spring that triggered the flusher also sent the seat flying up to smack people on their backsides!
