Nikola Tesla – The Forgotten Wizard

January 11, 2008 by Geeks are Sexy | 0 comments

Here’s a very interesting movie documenting the life of Nikola Tesla, the inventor of AC current, wireless communication, the modern electric motor, basic laser and radar technology, x-rays, neon, robotics and on and on.

Unfortunately, and to my great surprise, Mr. Tesla died at 86, penniless and alone, lying in a forgotten hotel room somewhere in New York. The man is now famous, but history kept him in the dark until he was accepted as one of the most famous inventors ever. Enjoy!
