Why does genius go hand in hand with insanity?

@@nicholasp.capobiancojr.1772 To change the world one must think differently, deviating from the norm provides new and challenging ways of progressing as well as new and challenging ways of living which can easily be classed as insanity.

@@nicholasp.capobiancojr.1772 And myopia

Walking was the secret to his success. There is no better way to generate ideas. But don't tell anyone ssshhhhh

If Tesla is called the man that invented the Twentieth Century then it is incorrect. That honour should go to all scientists leading up to the Twentieth Century. Faraday is the one that discovered the principles for magnetics that lead to the electric motor and that light was indeed electricity. Nothing Tesla did is in use today. He went the wrong direction in the transmission of power. Not completely wrong like Edison, but his ideas never were put to use. He wasn't alone either in the ideas he had another person had the same idea for the transmission of electricity and did it better and more efficient. Was he a good showman, sure but was he doing anything new? Only as stunts. Who invented the cage that he would get into to do his stunts? True, he didn't murder any animals in his demonstrations, as far as I know. Yes he was smart, he was goddamn smart but he didn't invent the Twentieth Century, not one person could be given that honour because all scientists stand on the shoulders of giants. Then again he was an inventor out for personal wealth, he wasn't a scientist. Almost forgot, he died while mourning the loss of his favourite pigeon. cuckoo cuckoo I love my cats, I don't die from heartbreak when they die nor will I if my wife dies before me. If we use human history as a guide.

He is to scientists. He has an SI unit ( magnetic flux density) named after him which is about the highest honour you can get in the physics community.

Considering he was exploited by Edison and Edison stole his intellectual property and passed it off as his own genius

Edison did come out with some useful inventions himself, arguably less significant than Tesla's but it's also clear that Edison was the more successful entrepreneur and took great pains to manage his public image. Tesla did not share these talents, or at least not to the same extent. Tesla's proposal to power America with alternating current was of course vindicated as opposed to Edison's direct current power scheme, which proved to be all but unpractical on a large scale. I guess that almost balances them out.

I agree!

Tesla was the true genius.

Tesla is my hero as well. I would love an even deeper dive into his life here but for a condensed version it’s pretty decent. I wish he would’ve given his opinion on the way in which Tesla received the knowledge of his inventions through a bright light or dream that would pop into his head like God/higher being was planting these ideas at seemingly Radom times. I also would like to here what the doc makes of Tesla believing that he had reached alien life on Mars through radio waves and he could communicate with them to a small degree.

​@@dylan4652 i came across some videos claiming that he was into hinduism (i did not check it out). some documentaries/movies about tesla also showed that he was 'seeing' solutions to whatever technical issue he was trying to resolve (i've never before heard of him having hallucinations though). (i em an el. engineer myself, studied back in good old former yugoslavia, atheist, worked as sw engineer for many years, and interestingly enough, am looking into all things spiritual/magical these days. based on everything i'm hearing and having briefly looked at the core hindu concepts, it might be possible that theory about tesla having visions and talking to spirits is indeed true. who knows, we can only speculate..... all i know is that he used his genius for the benefit of all - in the end that's the only thing that matters.

@Imjust Observing - At what point did I say "Tesla invented alternating current."?

@@doit9854 ok I had to google that one 😂

Einstein was also a visual person and conducted thought experiments and received "down loads" through" images or scenes such as riding along side a beam of light which in that case time would stop. In some ways time is a result of light movement relative to " solid" objects. Move at light speed and aging stops! This can also be accomplished through meditation! When one vibrates at a very high frequency we can " overcome" the density of the physical body, and expand or bridge the deeper lighter and faster frequencies of the astral plane and beyond! The entire cosmos is within! Follow the breath to go inward!

Todd Grande is nothing short of a genius himself ☺️ Always head on the nail🎉and always spreads laughter

he was offered a percentage profit of every watt (I assume, sorry, my physics is bad!) produced by his AC, but he declined it and thus saved Westinghouse. If he hadn't declined... imagine, he would have been the RICHEST person in the world EVER to live. But that was not his goal in life :)

This is true and also very compelling. He cared more for the next amazing discovery, improvement, or invention to this end that he cared only for money inasmuch as it could further his research. He was obsessed with solving whatever challenge lay between himself and his professional goal of the moment. Unfortunately, that goal continually moved and stayed (would stay) forever just out of his reach. In other words, he would never be satisfied. I think it drove him ever further out of his mind.

I guess he didn't have a cat 😂

I took the Myers Briggs and it nailed my personality 100%.

Respectfully, How does one "nail" the MB's test? I'm sorry but I should have watched the video first perhaps the nature of the Myers-Briggs test was discussed so I would know I've taken at least one I know for sure but I'm sure I've taken more than one you're so popular I took a personality test for the most likely careers I would be good at while I was attending Brandeis University as one of 12 adult students in your new Brandeis adult scholar program which allowed the student to be able to take less than a full course load and I took three out of four courses and commuted as a single parent on afdc which was forced upon me from Worcester to Waltham I got to tell you I really worked hard and my son never took second place. I digress I didn't really need to take the test you know it wasn't like I was very aware of who I was and why I was there and Friends station what my career goals were and had been for a long time they emulated but typically always within the same kind of a category seven categories and I took one of those hundred question. It only fill in the blank really quickly questions like I love to be a car mechanic very gradual or forget about it you know I love to read and two little kids la la la. The two administrators of the chest kicked off the Myers-Briggs are Briggs Myers test by in a mention that there was some kind of right right brain left brain considerations factored into the test and it was merely a barometer with a hundred questions it was a formula well put together I wasn't surprised that it at all of the answers that it came up with it just I wasn't there to get any answers that was there because I love to take test and surveys and personality quizzes and stuff like that but they did say is that in all of your years administering that test and I guess they were speaking about secondhand information from other Myer Briggs Representatives is that no one who takes the test indicates a 50:50 right brain left brain you know that equal capacity people always typically even if it's really close and is closer the numbers are it's it's still a barometer but you could be 51% left braided 43% typically with a broader a broader margin + margin of error. forgive me I hardly slept last night so I'm really digressing okay so I buried the lede again here's the thing they told me as soon as I guess they had their whip through tabulating the results of each person's test would buy one cuz you could leave when you were done they stopped me as I was leaving who who and told me that they just wanted to let me know that I was the only person he ever been it came up exactly 50/50 on right brain left brain. it is that spirit I say go figure! anyway unless I really miss something which I think I already explained in the beginning how does one nail the particular test that you're talkin about?

@@barbaradavaz1010 He said IT nailed his personality, not that HE nailed the test.

Dane Tesla was off the top of my head about 12 when he died. Nikola was 5. Dane was considered the more intelligent of the brothers (I wrote a (bad) sci-fi novel on Tesla (the Nuclear Tourist)

Intelligence correlates with health, so though I'm sure a lot of geniuses have died before their time, on average, it is less likely they did so. Thus more geniuses have lived long and productive lives than you would statistically expect. Would be interesting to investigate this.

What about his sister? Were they also geniuses?

@Rejane Oliveira, I think I agree with you on this!

I hadn’t heard this before, but I love it. Einstein was right on!

@@LizbetPCB Einstein had so many witty quotes. The man's mind was a goldmine, not just for physics.

@@babblingalong7689 The man was a fraud and thief. Tesla knew this and called him out openly as a fraud. Einstein was a P.O.S and KNEW to give respect to a man who could entirely defeat him in a debate about physics or science, and prove Einstein for the fraud he was/is

Einstein was probably being sarcastic.

StandLegWeak . Or jealous.

@Fernando Deveze LOOOOOOOOOOL

I wonder if it might not be from almost dying of cholera when he was young. Cholera is a bacteria spread in unsafe food and water, so some of his germaphobic tendencies make a lot of sense (like having food boiled and frequent hand washing) during an era when unsafe food and water were commonplace.

Almost dying of cholera might do that to you!

Yep, germaphobe.

Those who took advantage of him should be exposed and criticised

"HE INVENTED FREE ELECTRICITY FROM THE AIR!!!!!!"

I'm surprised we still havnt seen whatever blueprints Tesla gave Trumps grandfather. My guess is starlink/space force ish.

One story that is true is that he was friends with Mark Twain. Twain had lots of close friends, of course, but Tesla considered Twain his only real friend.

@Julez O'Neil bit of a no substance answer? Time travel ? Wormhole displacement quantum physics ?

@@chrisgould101 The trump relative was trump’s paternal uncle. Tesla gave nothing to him. He was part of a team of military academics who raided Tesla’s'apartment following 6Tesla’s death and before his family was notified of his death. I imagine the point was to take and they did anything Tesla might have invented that they could weapon or. Tesla was a genius but not a capitalist. Tesla wanted the world to have free electricity. Edison stole from Tesla. Free just was not happening within Edison, Westinghouse or U.S. government.I am Serbian and there is greater information to be found in Belfast. He was quite and truthful man which did not go over well in the industrial and money oriented U.S.A. Such an honest and interesting man and far a head of his time. Einstein was humble and correct in reference to Tesla being the most important and knowledgeable man of their time. Tesla is a hero for me.

Awesome comment but there's nothing typical about Nikola Tesla. As a quite typical INTJ myself, I dont think Tesla could relate to mundane society. I have a hard enough time of it as it is.

@@dasein9980 Yes, this is certainly true. I’m mostly referring to his peculiar behaviors that all INTJS(myself included) can relate to on some level.
