THE SMARTEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED

Mmm ok, and for all of us born outside the United States of America ( America is the entire continent) I think more than one man qualified in that position vg:
In the summer of 1905, this man change the way we view the entire universe, that's gotta count for something, until today his theories are proven to be correct.

I’m sorry but I’m unavailable. Too busy filling that position…….


Actually I just now watched the whole video - I stand in awe! And they say “Where have all the Hero’s gone”. It saddens me to realize the only ones left are the very small people such as you and me. There are no larger than life Hero’s anymore. In this depraved world we stand alone with no such men or women for us to look too. It’s every man for themselves. God save us all….

Nikola Tesla for sure. Crazy as a loon but should have received credit for AC power.

Oh no...THere's larger than life heroes everywhere...Just the same as "the good ol' days"...From the people in our military to just our average citizens...
 
In listening to all these Quantum Physics books there are about 10 from 1890 to 1960 that were phenomenal. Sir Issac Newton has to be in the top 3.

Newton developed a mathematical formulation of gravity that explained both the motion of a falling apple and that of the planets. He showed that the gravitational force between any two objects is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

What is Isaac Newton most famous for? Although Isaac Newton is well known for his discoveries in optics (white light composition) and mathematics (calculus), it is his formulation of the three laws of motion —the basic principles of modern physics—for which he is most famous.

Modern scholars estimate his IQ at 190 to 200.

Apparently there's been a bit of misunderstanding of what the video's producer claims in their
title - namely, the "smartest man who ever lived":
1. I saw no claims of "hero" in the video (although as the "Father" of the Greatest Nation the world
has ever known, TJ certainly competes for that title as well).
2. For our friend born "outside the United States of America", at no time were the facts presented in
the video intended to be construed, nor could they be interpreted, that all or part of the case for TJ
being the "smartest" were based on his geographic location, either.
Instead, it was all of his contributions FOUNDING and SUPPORTING a specific country that make the case...
3. Einstein was certainly a brilliant man, but the "smartest"? I'd argue in the negative on that one,
simply because for how often he was blatantly wrong - and at times, borderline mentally unstable as well.

The descriptor "smartest" is one of those words that there simply cannot be an absolute, universally-agreed
upon #1 winner on - it's a subjective thing, to be the "smartest" in any scenario.
Open to opinions and not necessarily quantifiable...
I would have preferred the video's producer to instead have used any of several other descriptors for the
title of their otherwise well-produced video - something like "greatest American" or "father of our nation"
or something like that.

I am a huge TJ fan, always have been. Larger than life people like that are once in a lifetime, if that...
now y'all stop arguing semantics and getting all butthurt about preconceived sleights and allow yourselves
to just acknowledge THAT resume'!
 
If you’re talking about the smartest man who ever lived in the field of science, I maintain it would have to be a 4 way tie between Archimedes, Newton, Tesla, and Einstein.

I agree that “smartest people“ is way too vague and thus poorly defined.

The Democratic-Republican Party, also referred to as the Jeffersonian Republican Party and known at the time under various other names,[a] was an American political party founded by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison in the early 1790s that championed republicanism, agrarianism, political equality, and expansionism. The party became increasingly dominant after the 1800 elections as the opposing Federalist Party collapsed. The Democratic-Republicans later splintered during the 1824 presidential election. The majority faction of the Democratic-Republicans eventually coalesced into the modern Democratic Party, while the minority faction ultimately formed the core of what became the Whig Party.[9]
 
I could simplify this in a whole different manner. One that no one need debate. It doesn’t matter what the author intended, was long on or short on. Where he or she was from. It’s simply non negotiable and unimpeachable. Instead of just laying it right on you - I’ll let you figure it out. Just think - a book has been written, a compilation of sorts that’s been around for eons and has sold more copies than any other book by too many 100’s of thousands to count - more books than any other in the history of the world. It’s not hard and it’s not a competition. That person in every respect is the most influential person the world has ever known. Whom would I be referring to?

Influence and intelligence are two different
things. Books are written to express ideals,
differences of opinions, life experiences,
dreams, and science fiction. The subject
of the particular opinion is open to
interpretation. It doesn't mean intelligence
Is measured in the number of books sold.
The Bible reigns Supreme.
 
You can be the smartest person, just learn to read a teleprompter. Don’t ask me how I know.
:rofl:
