The trauma that they had gone through.
And it became so hard for her just to function on a daily basis, you know, without having a nervous breakdown.
So very similar to Tesla, but, you know, two different type of situations.
Yeah.
In 1884, when he was 28, Tesla moved to New York after a brief stint in Paris.
There were a lot of other inventors living in those cities, and Tesla wanted to work with and learn from them.
In the process, he made a lot of incredible breakthroughs.
But Tesla is most famous for inventing the transformer, which is a machine that controls how much energy travels through a wire at a given time.
Basically, it's why you can plug in your phone, your TV, your coffee maker, and your refrigerator into the same outlet without shorting out your whole home.
Well, most of the time, Tesla focused on inventions that weren't specific to the toilet.
For example, around 1896, the 40-year-old was trying to perfect a new machine called an oscillator.
In very simple terms, this device generated an electrical current, then fired beams of energy through the air in whatever direction you pointed it in.
Then it gave whatever you pointed it at more power.
So imagine you could turn on a machine and instantly charge all of the phones, computers, cameras, and other devices in your room without having to plug them in.
That was what the oscillator was supposed to do.
The problem was that Tesla hadn't quite worked out all the bugs yet.
And one day that year, he turned the oscillator on inside his New York laboratory.
Then he got distracted by something else, of course, because he's an inventor.
And he wasn't paying attention to the machine when he powered it up.
So the electric charge just got stronger and stronger.
