The 3 FORBIDDEN INVENTIONS of NIKOLA TESLA.

 The 3 FORBIDDEN INVENTIONS of NIKOLA TESLA.

Nicolas Tesla is considered one of the most prolific inventors of the late 19th and early 20th

 centuries, with over 300 patents filed during his lifetime, many of which were related to electricity and alternating currents. He devoted his life to trying to advance society technologically by conceptualizing some of the most incredible inventions, some of which had the potential to change the world. But before discussing these inventions, let's look at the genesis of the inventor. Nikola Tesla was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire on July 10, 1856, which today corresponds to Croatia. His mother, Douka Mandic, was illiterate but was an intelligent and cultured woman. In his autobiographical book, My Inventions, Tesla described his mother as a first-rate inventor, and he believed that she could have achieved great things if she had not been so removed from modern life. She invented and built all kinds of instruments and devices.of Thomas Edison et commence à travailler pour lui mais leur collaboration ne dure pas longtemps car Tesla n'est pas satisfait des méthodes de travail d'Edison et de son refus d'explorer le potentiel du courant alternatif. En 1887, Tesla crée sa propre entreprise et se concentre sur la recherche et le développement du courant alternatif. Sa découverte de la bobine Tesla en 1891 est considérée comme une avancée majeure dans la transmission de l'énergie électrique. Tesla a également travaillé sur des projets tels que la transmission sans fil de l'électricité et la communication sans fil. Malheureusement, malgré ses nombreuses contributions à la science et à la technologie, Tesla est mort dans la pauvreté en 1943. Cependant, son héritage continue de vivre à travers les nombreuses inventions et découvertes qu'il a faites tout au long de sa vie.The content is as follows:

Edison had just created a direct current electrical network for the entire city of New York, but this system was plagued by frequent accidents, breakdowns, and fires.

In order to solve this problem, Tesla proposed using alternating current, which would be an adequate solution and would replace direct current perfectly. However, his friend Edison opposed this idea, and after several disputes and agreements, Tesla resigned from the company in 1885. A year later, he founded his own company called Tesla Electric Light and Manufacturing. However, he quickly had to resign due to disagreements with financial investors who asked him not to use alternating current in his inventions                                                       

Remarkable and hired by George Westinghouse, who was a direct competitor of Thomas Edison in the electricity market. After a fierce battle against Edison to determine which current would be used throughout the United States, Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse ultimately won, and alternating current became standardized throughout the country. Tesla flourished and developed new machines and inventions, including the first radio-controlled boat. He impressed New Yorkers with a presentation of his invention at Madison Square Garden. Later, he discovered standing waves and invented a coil capable of emitting high-voltage electricity. Tesla was a true genius ahead of his time, but he also developed inventions that could have changed the world due to their incredible potential. Let's begin with the presentation of these inventions with the death ray.                                      

..Tesla believed that the world was at risk of heading towards a new world war and that the only way to avoid it was to create extremely destructive weapons of deterrence. He claimed to have invented a weapon so powerful that it could split the earth in two, forcing all world leaders to come to an agreement. This weapon was called the Death Ray. According to Tesla's plans, the device would emit an intense beam of energy that could destroy any object of any size or material. An article published by the New York Times in 1934 about the Death Ray claimed that it could bring down up to 10,000 planes from a distance of 400 kilometers. This invention seemed so crazy that even some French newspapers wrote about it at the time.

Tesla envisioned a world where each country was protected by its own Death Ray, making war impossible. He mentioned that his invention had been attempted to be stolen several times, with his apartment being ransacked by thieves or spies. However, they always left empty-handed. He first offered the weapon to the US and British governments, but they did not accept it. He then turned to the Soviets, who allegedly expressed interest in buying it, but no sale was made.

pu transmettre de l'énergie électrique sans fil à travers de grandes distances. Bien que Tesla ait réussi à démontrer la transmission d'énergie sans fil sur de courtes distances, il n'a jamais pu réaliser son rêve de construire une tour de transmission d'énergie à grande échelle. Cependant, son travail a jeté les bases de la technologie de transmission d'énergie sans fil qui est utilisée aujourd'hui dans des applications telles que la recharge sans fil des téléphones portables et des voitures électriques.

Tesla was granted permission to send electricity throughout the entire globe without limitations or charges. However, lacking the necessary funds to create the machine, he sought financial assistance from businessmen and financiers of the time, including JP Morgan, a wealthy American banker, and financier. Morgan was intrigued by the idea and decided to invest $150,000 into the invention, which today equates to approximately $4.5 million. The Warden Cliff Tower was then constructed in the city of Brookhaven, New York in 1901. Two years later, in 1903, when the tower was almost complete, the project faced cost overruns, and investors, including JP Morgan, were reluctant to provide additional funds. Construction of the tower was then halted. In 1905, Tesla's patents on alternating current motors and other energy transmission methods expired, greatly reducing his royalties and consequently the funds invested in the tower. By 1906, most of the site's activities had stopped and employees were dismissed. The building was closed in 1908 and by 1911, the facilities were partially abandoned and began to deteriorate due to a lack of maintenance.

Between 1912 and 1915, Tesla experienced significant financial troubles when investors wanted to know how they would recover their money. The main building was sold and began to crack, and in 1917, the tower was finally destroyed, much to Tesla's dismay. This is the official version of the story, but if you look for information on this tower, some people will give you another version. As I mentioned, the tower was intended to distribute free electricity to the entire globe, which would have been available to everyone. Therefore, the tower offered no possible profitability, and this method would have been extremely dangerous for philanthropists of the time because it could deeply change the energy industry. JP Morgan, who financed this project, had a true empire at the time. He had control over several fields such as steel, railroads, navigation, and electricity, and he knew very well that Tesla's primary motivation was not to make money but to give humanity the means to use unlimited and free energy. Some people believe that JP Morgan stopped financing the project out of fear of seeing his investment in the energy market collapse, but this theory was challenged by Nikola Tesla himself. Here's what he says in his autobiographical book.

:

Rumors have reached me that Mr. Morgan was not interested in me from a commercial standpoint, but rather in the same generous spirit in which he has helped many other pioneers. He kept his promise to the letter, and it would have been most unreasonable to expect anything more from him. The story of this invention is quite short, but I felt compelled to tell it. In 1893, Tesla filed a patent for his new invention, the electromagnetic oscillator. Here is a drawing of it from when it was presented at the 1893 World's Fair. The operation of this machine is too complex to explain without making errors, but what is important to remember is that Mr. Morgan kept his promise and helped me in a generous spirit.

The invention vibrates up and down at high speed to generate electricity. The uniqueness of this invention is that it produces effects that even the inventor did not anticipate. It is claimed that it had a physiological effect on people subjected to its vibrations, acting as a laxative and causing them to immediately run to the toilet. However, much more destructive and unexpected effects were also observed. In 1935, at an annual meeting of the New York Press, 79-year-old Tesla recounted a story in which he claimed that a version of his mechanical oscillator had caused an earthquake in downtown New York. While experimenting with a small version of his mechanical oscillator in his laboratory in New York, the object generated a resonance in the building. When the speed of the oscillator increased, the resonance spread to the surrounding buildings. Tesla panicked and grabbed a sledgehammer to destroy the object just as the police arrived. He also stated at this meeting that the mechanical oscillator could destroy the Empire State Building if it was attached to a beam of the building.

During the last years of his life, Nikola Tesla lived alone and reclusive in a hotel room in New York. At the age of 81, while on his usual route to Central Park where he would feed the pigeons, he had a bad fall while trying to avoid a taxi. Refusing to consult a doctor or be taken to the hospital, he was returned to his hotel room. However, the inventor never fully recovered from the fall and was left with chronic OCD and insomnia. He died on January 7, 1943, alone in his hotel room, penniless and covered in debt, leaving behind over 300 patents and a reputation as a brilliant scientist. The last photo taken of him was in the year of his death. After his passing, several places, objects, and companies were named in honor of Tesla, and he has also been celebrated by national and regional commemorative dates around the world. More recently, Tesla's homeland, Croatia, joined the eurozone on January 1, 2023, and the inventor's profile can be found on the 10, 20, and 50-cent coins. Thank you for watching the video until the end, and I'll see you next time.
