Nicola Tesla is the quintessential mad scientist. He was a genius, and his inventions were astonishing for their time, but he did not invent the light bulb

"Edison didn't invent the electric chair in an attempt to discredit all of Tesla's work by trying to make AC look bad and instead have everybody use DC just like Edison was doing, right? Oh, and he didn't electrocute animals with AC either to prove a point? And his whole scheme didn't turn around on him, and that's why we use AC today, I get it now."

I remember learning that the electric chair backfired. People didn't remember it as "AC vs. DC". They remembered it as "Edison's electricity killed people."

Umm, yes, he did
