Marco Tempest: The electric rise and fall of Nikola Tesla

[arthermax]

He didnt get the fund not because he told them it can be used to contact other planets but because, it can give FREE unlimited energy for no profit.

Great presentation, full of creativity. and still not enough to introduce this great scientist who has been ignored by western scientific society.

[VintijMindVibez]

Wow I can only imagine how much time and effort he put into this. Great job Marco! The legacy of Nikola must live on!

[gulllars]

He was an important character in a movie a few years ago. The Illusionist i think it was.
The things Tesla was doing at that time were extraordinary. His profound insight into electricity (and magnetism) is humbling.
There are a few key people throughout history that would radically change how the world is today had they died young before they could do their work. Tesla is a great example of such a person. If only more scientists had listened to him and really looked at his ideas at the time.

The most incredible Tesla video you will ever see!
The giant shines throughout the
The great minds have no boundaries!

[Envirnmentalist]

The sooner we re-discover Teslas ideas the better.

A very well-presented TED talk. Far more engaging than the usual slides.

[FinallyGotATubeName]

This is the fourth Marco Tempest talk on this channel got to give him props for that.

Such a great presentation. It's so cool. God bless Nikola Tesla.

[yubedude]

Fantastic presentation!! His use of available technologies and subject matter was a very thoughtful nexus. This is why I sub TED.

[subhammishra]

The most entertaining Ted Talk I've ever seen.. 
AWESOME!!

This is a TED topic I have waited a long time to see presented. I sincerely hope it is not the last time TED talks about Nikola Tesla, the world requires his story to be told and for the young minds of today to take up his work and bring to the world what Tesla dreamed of - Abundant FREE electricity, wirelessly transmitted, to everywhere on Earth.

"The present is theirs. The future, for which I have really worked, is mine!" - Tesla

More stories of Nikola Tesla should be told, his sacrifice to this world is tremendous, his life and stories are profound, and his contribution to this world should be remembered by everyone! He was a great inventor, an incredible scientist!

[happyending]

this is simply beautiful! What a nice presentation of legendary Nikola Tesla! It really did touch my heart <3

[kallistiX]

You're comment is precisely the reason I don't read comments before watching a video. I was immediately biased against a presentation that was neither mocking nor 'disinformation'. And, do not know of any pauper who could have afforded to live at the Waldorf until they died. The video was perfectly charming and you are in desperate need of a sense of humor.

[Brazbrah]

Hey TED was featured on BBC news today! Great to see support and recognition for it :)

[joepicksthingsup]

what a shame there are not more people like this

[gulllars]

Also. I was saying we might have gotten great technology years or decades earlier if scientists of his time had taken him seriously and really looked into his research and ideas. Though understandibly they were hard to fathom at the time. And yes, i've read up on him, but not an entire book.

[Envirnmentalist]

All his old patents should be looked at, they are available on his wiki page.

[spliter]

Wow... I can't remember the last time that something instilled in me that childlike wonder I experienced while watching this.
Bravo!
