There
have been a lot of well-known extraordinary people who were obsessed with many
different fields of our world and they left a mark in humankind’s history. But
today I want to talk about a man who invented today’s world and hadn’t got his
recognition until recently.
This
man is a Serbian American Nikola Tesla. He was an inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, physicist, and a futurist
best known for his contributions to
the design of the modern alternating current electricity supply system. Nikola Tesla
devoted his life to make the world a better place to live in. There are about
300 patents for his inventions which took about 50 years for humankind to understand
how they work and how to use them but none of them have a patent protection.
Nikola Tesla gave permission to other scientist to use his patents for their
research. He succeeded in making X-rays, radars, wireless transmissions and
even Death ray, which he destroyed, because he knew that it could have handed
world domination to whoever held it. Because of these devices Nikola Tesla has gained
reputation as a “mad scientist”. Another interesting action in Nikola Tesla’s
life was when he ripped apart a contract, when he found out that, because of
that contract a person will lose his business, and all of his employees will
lose their jobs.
Although Nikola Tesla was a good man and in my
opinion the best inventor of all time he died poor and alone, except for the
pigeons which he loved. But despite that he had forgiven everyone their ignorance
and literally made the world a better place to live in.
