NEW KIND OF INSTRUMENT :
Now I would like to talk about a instrument that i found really funny and innovative.
It is named the RimbaTubes and it is made out of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) which is a plastic-like substance.
This instrument is a mix between a Pan flute and drums. PVC pipes of different sizes and widths are stuck together and put upright. The RimbaTube player uses flat drumsticks and hit the top of the tubes. Each tube produces a different frequency of sound so you can play more and less high or low. The sound that emerges from these PVC tubes is kind of strange and rather funny. It reminds me sounds from video games.
But I think that will be easier to make your proper opinion by listening to this awesome video:

As a conclusion I would like to say that everybody can have and create his own instrument.
The only limits being your imagination and your creativity. So if you’re a music lover but you don’t like any kind of classic instrument don’t give up music and create your own masterpiece.
Here is a site that gives some tutorials to create your own instrument without spending any money.
AN UNKNOWN INSTRUMENT:
To finish i’ll would like to introduce you a incredible instrument which is called the didgeridoo, it is an aboriginal instrument that comes from Australia, the land of the spirits.
Frequently described as a "natural wooden trumpet", didgeridoos are typically 1-1.5 meters in length.
The didgeridoo produces a continuous drone that a skillful player can modulate to produce a variety of complex rhythmic effects and even achieve melodic enhancements. The didgeridoo is an extremely expressive instrument capable of creating powerful moods ranging from somber or sinister to carefree and joyful.
A traditionally made didgeridoo has several unique features. First, the didgeridoo is primarily a natural, rather than a manufactured object. Traditional didgeridoos are made from a Eucalyptus branch or sapling that has been hollowed out by white ants (a species of termite).
A didgeridoo player can add complex rhythmic effects to the didgeridoo's drone by manipulating his lips, tongue, cheeks, glottal muscles, and diaphragm; some particularly skilled players can even play a rhythm and counter-rhythm simultaneously.
