Nikola Tesla World of Science portrait

Nikola Tesla died penniless despite holding roughly 300 patents globally and inventing the Tesla Coil back in 1891. His life was marked by intense quirks like severe germophobia and an obsession with the number three that dictated everything from his hotel room choices to circling buildings three times before entry. This same mind possessed a photographic memory, spoke eight languages fluently, and maintained a close friendship with author Mark Twain. The reach of his ideas extended far beyond his time too since he constructed a mechanical oscillator capable of intense vibration that nearly collapsed his Manhattan laboratory building and proposed a World Wireless System in 1901 that essentially predicted modern smartphones.
