I hate documentaries like this. Everyone talks about how Tesla is forgotten but anyone who ever learned the basics of electricity learned about Tesla (and how he was ripped off by Westinghouse and others).

What's stupid though are the conspiracy theories around him about having invented energy weapons and the like that are being suppressed by the government. Such BS. Tesla's technology and knowledge are common place today and anything that he would have discovered would be known by now.

Great man tho.

Maybe that's true in your country, but you could ask most Americans who he is, and the significance of what he invented, and 99% will be completely clueless.

They were (are) taught Edison was a genius, and it basically ends there. :2 cents:

I agree

I'm a longtime admirer of Tesla my dad was an electrical engineer and I grew up listening to him lecturing me on how Tesla was much more brilliant than Edison.

next you're going to tell me Santa Clause isn't real........

Americans maybe, not the rest of the world. I learned about Tesla in school.....in Canada
