You just gotta respect Nikola Tesla's ideas

This guy Mehdi Sadaghdar loves electricity and he loves to show us. Check out his other videos. I'm glad he picked up a school book rather the Koran, lol!

 
I had a roomie in college that used to talk about Nikola Tesla all the time. Weirdest fucker I have ever met.

No doubt the guy could have been a super villain, had he gone the other way.

If you get a chance watch "The Things You Did Not Know - Tesla vs. Edison" on The History Channel.
One of the things that showed me not everyone was alike was when our class went to a science workshop. There was a Tesla coil and the instructor talked about how when you touch it your hair will stand up due to static. Well that happens for certain ethnicities, others not so much ;)

Edison lost money to light up the Chicago World Fair in 1893 when Tesla and Westinghouse won the contract. Tesla's AC current won out from Edison's DC as the standard transmission mode in the United States.

This was covered in "The Men Who Built America". Also how J.P. Morgan ended up with Westinghouse. In "The Ten Things..." it talks on how Tesla started to work for Edison.

History channel however over did the historical perspective for drama.

If you have Netflix watch "The American Experience" episode tittle "Henry Ford".

In it is the real story how he won the race to get known, how the Dodge bros sue him after he put in the first $3 a hour wage to stop turn over, and the way he treated Edisol leading to his early death as his only child.

Plus Ford's building of Dearborn Village with the original Wright Bro workshop.

About 1:40 long. Also Henry's anti semitic Dearborn Express is explained.
They wouldn't so happen to discuss the connection with Kingsford Charcoal?

I think so. But not certain. Seen it two years ago and about to re-watch it.

Trailer my bad:


It was a $5 work day that causes the Dodge Brothers to sue him and win for their funds to start Dodge.

I have three biographies about Nikola Tesla upstairs, if anyone wants to borrow them.
