Nikola Tesla: The best inventor of all time

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.
