Yes, Tesla was great man. He did light up 200 light globes on the distance of 45 km without any wires.
The investors didnt like this idea and said: "Sorry Mr. Tesla, but how are we going to charge people for using electricity?"
The Niagara Falls Electrane has his name on it.
There are some speculations about so called "Philadelphia experiment" where whole ships were made to disappear and reappear mills away. There is movie about it. There is little bit about it in the movie with our own Hue Jackman about magician tricks where person would be cloned with this device.
Tesla was about to get Nobel Price but would had to share it with Tomas Edison. But Edison declined it to share so they didnt get it. The fact of the matter is Edison stole many ideas from Tesla who BTW was never interested in money. Tesla came to USA and worked for Edison, but they didnt go along because Edison was persisting with DC power and Tesla for AC. AC won as we know and Edison wasnt happy about it. In the movie with Hue Jackman, Edisons people set fire on Teslas laboratory.
Tesla invented first wireless device but someone else took credit for it, I forgot the name of the fella.
Definitely great man.
