    About this Episode

    It's said that during a lightning storm on the stroke of midnight between July 9th and 10th of 1856, in what is now present day Croatia, one of the greatest minds in history was born.

    Nikola Tesla was the first man to harness the power of Niagra Falls to produce alternating current which started the electrification of the world,
    he developed working neon and flourescent light bulbs 40 years before they became mainstream,
    he lit the Chicago's World's Fair in 1893 via wireless power transmission, which is the basis of our 'wi fi' today.
    He took the first x-ray picture,
    discovered the earths Rotating Magnetic Field,
    invented the Tesla Coil,
    the radio,
    multiple kinds of different electric motors,
    the first remote controlled vehicle,
    the worlds first laser,
    he discovered that 8Hz is the same frequency that the human brain, the earth itself and all organic matter operates on,
    he developed an "earth quake machine"  that would match any objects resonant frequency and once amplified,
    that object could be literally shaken to pieces, which he tested one night in early 1912 in the Wall St. district of New York City. Tesla clamped this vibrator to one of the beams of a half erected steel building and after a few minor adjustments, Reporter A.L. Besnson says quote, " finally the structure began to creak and weave and the steel-workers came to the ground panic-stricken, believing that there had been an earthquake. Police were called out. Tesla put the vibrator in his pocket and went away. Ten minutes more and he could have laid the building in the street, and, with the same vibrator he could have dropped the Brooklyn Bridge into the East River in less than an hour."


    And by the way, all accounts of this device state that it was no larger than an alarm clock.

    He was a genius of such depth and vision that there has been no equal since.
    PLUS, this BAD MOTHER FUCKER was DEEPLY and PASSIONATELY in love...
    with a pigeon...
