Tesla tried telling everyone his secret but the higher powers convinced the public he was mad and irrational because he knew how to give everyone free wireless energy decades before the internet was even thought of
Big oil and railroad tycoons wouldn't let him and by the time the public figures it out he died
Einstein was a fraud he plagirised most of his work and never invented anything even his theories were debunked and proved false yet people call him the genius because they dont want you to know about Nicola tesla
He is called "Nicolaj Tesla"
What about Leonardo da Vinci?
some if the inventors where just straight greedy to not leave any thing the allow there legacy to ve carryed on and possibly help the future.

Mr Crabs will take the crabby patty secret formula to the grave
"Facepalm" You forgot Jan Sloot, He invented a new compression technique that could for example bring a 2 gigabyte movie down to 8 kilobytes, he died of a heart attack just a few days before he was going to sell this technology to a big business.
What about Ned Stark? Hmmm?
it should have been Rasputin
Well….. He's on 100 bill for a reason! Ben is a PIMP!
I love Tesla,after all he is a Serb like me and I got my name after him.

Ned Stark
J Edgar Hoover.
Number 8 is a greedy fuck
Edison steal a lot from tesla and Jp Morgan didn't fire him he simply didn't have any money left he was broke
Watchmojo.com can you do funny roblox YouTubers and i think albertsstuff should go to the list
Tesla on the thumbnail! There you you go WatchMojo, you've got a like!
Ed Leedskalnin should've made the list –Coral Castle is phenomenal and there are way too many questions surrounding its construction
nice click bait xD
Nicola Tesla was so handsome.
In the battle between Edison and Tesla, it is so obvious who won. Tesla, of course. Edison might be better known, but he is not seen as 'cool', which Tesla most definitely is. Ever seen an Edison T-shirt? Me neither. I have a couple of Tesla shirts, and another way he crops up is in video games – several feature Tesla Coils, which are in themselves awesomely cool. "But Edison invented the lightbulb" I hear someone say. Nope. He just made it commercially viable – it had been demonstrated many years before, by an Englishman called Swann, and some French scientists. Yes, a lightbulb is indeed a wonderful thing. But it's not as cool as a Tesla Coil.
What about Shakespear Second best bed
Fuck Edison.
do a top 10 worst commercials
2:46 first fidget spinner
Fuck JP Morgan.
Tesla is a GOD! Elon has nothing on him!

Any one know 3:34? If been there XD.
#9 basically revealed that there is a real life 'One Piece'. Time to set sail and go find it!!!!
J.P. Morgan cutting the funding to Tesla's Wardenclyffe tower has to make it on Top 10 Anime Betrayals.
Low key Ned Stark, like if you agree
Another honorable mention should have been Albert Johnson aka The Mad Trapper of Rat river. An trapper that killed 3 RCMP, ran 137 km in Yukon following caribou tracks to lose the police, and final died on January 30, 1932. Similar to Jerome of Sandy Cove, no one knows who he really was, why he started the conflict, and how the evaded the police for so long in harsh conditions.
How would you know if it was a Secret?
German guy, jumps off a German whindmill, what do you show? A picture of Dutch windmills, 😐 facepalm XD
I was hoping Arsène Goedertier was in this list. The man claimed to know where the stolen panel, "the Just Judges" of the Ghent Altarpiece was, but died before telling. German soldiers even opened his grave in WOII in hope to find the Just Judges
