  2.  @raahehaq263  Half of the inventors mentioned in the movie were not American, it wasn't about American inventions, it was about the rapid change in lifestyle.

  3. No, he didn't.

  4. He wasn't, he simply made it practical for commercial use as the one thing DC could do that AC could not was drive a motor. Tesla solved this by inventing the AC motor.

  5. The US only leads the world in two things - the world's largest economy and the world's largest military. They are overshadowed by western European nations and Korea and Japan in most other things.

  6. You can't really invent a type of electricity, you discover it. Edison championed DC electricity for commercial use and Tesla invented the AC motor that made AC useful for commercial use, allowing Westinghouse to win the US war of the currents. DC was discovered around 3,000 years ago by the Egyptians who would utilise electric catfish in experiments. AC was discovered by Hippolyte Pixie in 1832 who wondered what would happen if a DC generator created by Michael Faraday had it's polarity reversed at rapid intervals.

  7.  @DrunkenDish  Wrong. That was Hippolyte Pixie. Westinghouse just sold AC in the US using Siemens machinery imported from Europe because at the world expo in Paris he saw that the AC system was far superior to the DC system Edison was selling and he saw a business opportunity.

  8. Invention requires a certain level of freedom and freedom is a relatively new concept to humans that has only been around for about 500 years and only really been in full spring for the past 200 years. Before that humans were controlled by Kings, Tsars, Caliphs and Bishops and these kinds of men feared anyone who could challenge them so education was almost unheard of and anyone who was considered a "wise man" was killed, imprisoned or forced to work for the ruler.

  10. Being banned by YouTube does not validate your credibility, it just proves you are either a liar or a loon. By your logic David Eike must speak the gospel as he has been banned from YouTube and he believes the Earth is ruled by a race of lizards led by Queen Elizabeth II...

  11. This was made at some point in the 1940's, if it had been made in 1910 there would have been no sound.
