Why The Internet Might Be Wrong About Nikola Tesla
(No author named) The Huffington Post
As the world knows - or may know - Serbian-American Nikola Tesla is the electrifying genius who defied all odds and invented and helped invent much of the devices which are widely used today such as the radar, ac/dc currents, sonar, the remote control, X-rays, radio, and many more. His groundbreaking intellect and unsurpassed vision of potential inventions made Tesla look superhuman. Although he is regarded as one of the greatest inventors the world has ever seen, is his inspirational story of stupendous wit and capabilities wholly truthful? The internet portrays Nikola Tesla as a "selfless creator for the people," but ironically so, Nikola Tesla was famous. Famous as in Time Magazine cover page famous. He was as high as they get when it came to scientific fame and wisdom. His unimaginable respect can seem tangible, but it was quite the contrary. There was a quote that said "aside from history being written by the winners, it was also written by the victims." This quote leaves us with a ginormous question mark: is what we know as history the truth, or one side of the story? The world will probably never know the actual truth, but it's an exciting way to start off a debate.
