Mike one fact that always is associated Tycho Brahe is he died for holding too long his urine, some say his bladder exploded 😮. In the case of Frued that explains those "contributions" to psychology 😅 The best to you man from northern México 😊
The creator of basketball, James Naismith , was actually a Canadian man who grew up in Ontario the late 19th century. He completed his physical education degree at McGill University, and became the university’s first athletic Director, while also completing three years of theology study in Montreal. Then he left McGill and transferred to the U.S. to work at the YMCA in Springfield Massachusetts, and that’s where he continued with the creation of basketball. Sad how many Canadian inventors get overlooked for the American aspect of the story. Go Canada! 😘 🇨🇦
Great topic! More to come? Great! Can't wait to hear the one about Carl Sagan! (I know there's a weird fact about him but can't remember what it is...)
I agee with you but corporations steal inventor creations all the time. Profit powers corporations to lie,cheat,or steal if unimaginable wealth results from the deception.
The OFFICIAL Naismith Museum and Hall of Fame is located in the Town of Almonte (in the Municipality of Mississippi Mills), Ontario just west of Ottawa.
I remember when we got our first remote but the sound my daddy's keys made was actually the same as the remote and it would change the channel or mess with the volume it was funny
One interesting side effect of the ulrasound remote was that anything making those sound waes could effect it. Our friends had one back in the day and if you jangled your car keys in fromt of the TV it would change the channel😂
Because Basketball originally used a peach basket every time someone scored, the game had to stop as someone had to climb a ladder to retrieve the ball.
Give credit where credit is due! Galileo did not invent the telescope. A Dutch eyeglass maker named Hans Lippershey invented it in 1608. Galileo learned of the invention and improved on it.
I just watched a documentary about the frisbee here on RU-vid, it was so interesting, and it started out as a pie company, towards the end of the day there was a manager (or some position like that) that started a pie fight as a way to improve morale. The pie pans would sail thru the air so well that after Frisbie pies was sold the new owners eventually realized there would be more profits in selling pans (after a little modification) as flying disks. They changed the spelling to Frisbee at the request of the name sake and the rest is history.
Personally, one of my favorites unventors is Tesla, even though his ending was tragic and die in loneliness and on top of that without any recognition from the scientific community.
Taphophobia wasn't an unrealistic fear. If you look into it you will find that there were several people how were in deep comas and thought to be dead and were buried only to wake form their comas after they had been buried. Crazy I know but just remember it was a very different world they lived in than we do.
Interesting tidbit: Freud became addicted to cocaine and also nicotine. He was able to kick the cocaine habit. But despite developing cancer from smoking, he was unable to give up nicotine.
It's me again with another correction..Darwin was not a biologist he was a geologist. His life's work was studying rocks making any biological assumption he had no better than what you or I might make. His qualifications were about the same as ours.
He was not the "ship's naturalist" on the Beagle either! I hate it when that gets put out as a "fact". He was the captain's "companion", but they didn't get on. At all lol. Darwin became a naturalist by Victorian standards - i.e. he was rich enough to spend all his time learning about it! It was a subject in which an amateur could still be considered to be an expert. There are a few such subjects these days (musician, artist, astronomer - probably much to some people's surprise. Pro ones rely on the amateurs to do the "donkey work" and they then do the tricky science connected to it.)
I love the smell of coffee beans, but I hate the taste of coffee. Plus, I don't need caffeine to operate. When I would drink coffee, shortly afterwards I'd pass out. So, coffee does the opposite for me. Plus it effects my blood pressure and I don't work well with others. So, I don't drink coffee.
N.Tesla? I admire this cat! But he fell short on one or two abilities that come to mind. Never did NT become adept in the financial world of America. Certainly not against his facile opponents Edison and Westinghouse. He died broke. Less important, he never really understood (or liked) American culture.
