In 1881, when Nikola Tesla was 25 years old, he came down with another strange illness.
He spent several days in bed, unable to get up.
But his symptoms were bizarre and unlike anything else he'd experienced before.
Also different.
Tesla's career also depended on ignoring the sensory overload.
He was still committed to discovering everything he could about engineering.
And he was still having those strange visions he'd first noticed during his childhood.
On a regular basis, complete blueprint designs would pop into his mind out of nowhere.
And Tesla felt driven to bring those blueprints to life.
And this discovery got him a lot of attention.
Tesla practically became a celebrity after that.
And by the spring of 1894, his favorite author, Mark Twain, had heard Tesla was a devoted fan.
So on March 4th, Twain paid Tesla a visit in his New York laboratory.
And after that, the two started hanging out all the time.
At one point, Tesla told Twain about how his novels had cured him as a child.
The men began chatting more generally about medical issues and illnesses, and Twain admitted that he had his own uncomfortable condition.
he was really constipated.
So Tesla told him he could help him.
They went back to his lab where Tesla used one of his machines to create vibrations in the air, and he fired those vibrations right into Twain's gut.
As soon as he turned the machine off, Twain said he urgently needed to use the bathroom before bolting it right out of the room.
