I got curious based on this question herehere, but basically, is there ever a real-life signal that exists where its Fourier transform does not exist? If a signal is not finite energy, then its Fourier Transform does not exist, so what might be an example, (if any), of such a signal in real-life?

Example of Fourier Transform not existing for real-life signals?
