Given the high cost of hearing aids, this product is not as silly as you may think.
When it first came out it probably looked weird, but these days a lot of people use Bluetooth headsets so it would not look out of place.

1. Given how little most people understand about hearing damage, DIY budget hearing aids are a recipe for disaster.
2. Where did they find those actors?

if it's omnidirectional it is just going to amplify everything so the noises nearest you will just swamp the distant sounds. Seem pretty useless to me.

They used to sell such things to kids, for spying with. Advertised in many boys comics and such, Tandy/Radio shack had them.
