There have been many great scientists who have contributed to humanity. The most famous scientists who changed the world are Isaac Newton, Galileo Galilei, Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, Louis Pasteur, Michael Faraday, James Clerk Maxwell, Johannes Kepler, and Marie Curie. This list is only complete with the great Nikola Tesla, the man who lit up the world. Nikola Tesla created the foundation for the technological development of humankind.

Nothing about the life of this brilliant scientist and inventor was ordinary, but how did Nikola Tesla die? All his life he was so busy with his inventions and making the world a better place that he couldn't cope with the capitalist world. Tesla was never a good businessman. Since he never pursued his ideas commercially, his attempts to make profits from his past inventions only led him to financial ruin, so he ended his life alone and bankrupt.

In 1899 Tesla announced his plans, “I propose to send a message from Pike’s Peak to Paris” and hired a local carpenter, Mr. Dozier, to build a laboratory and ordered equipment from New York. In the middle of the year, the workshop was nearly complete, “with a rough board structure, filled with dynamos, electric wires, switches, generators, motors, and almost every conceivable invention…” Not a lot of people were allowed inside, so journalists were curious. “When am I going to make an experiment in wireless telegraphy? Why I don’t intend to make such an experiment.” Tesla said. Obviously, he changed his mind.

"My telautomaton, for instance, opens up a new art which will sooner or later render large guns entirely useless, and will make impossible the building of large battleships, and will... compel the nations to come to an understanding for the maintenance of peace."

“I predict that very shortly the old-fashioned incandescent lamp, having a filament heated to brightness by the passage of electric current through it, will entirely disappear.”
