Or perhaps more specifically Topsy (which Edison was directly responsible for, may Topsy rest in peace), and what happened to him, was what did it. Damn shame all around. Tesla was a genius, though not without his troubles, and Edison was a patent thieving piece of shit.
No, it wasn't. 😂 I'm an old lady. We were taught Tesla in school many many years ago. It's just that kids these days want to think they have something new, so they start these rumors that they've "discovered" something. We old folks just sit back and laugh at how cute you guys are, trying to think you're the first to do something.

The most important fact presented in this video is the constant reference to the fact that these people were ALMOST erased from history >>> history IS totally silent regarding those heroic people who stood up against tyranny & paid with their lives, an unremembered death that was unmourned and silence for a eulogy... we should have a national holiday for those unremembered people who during their dark times were the best among us... kind of like the unknown soldier memorial in Arlington very close by the burial plots of the Kennedy's

Yes! This comment needs to be at the top! RUclipsrs have a problem with wanting to put so much crap music on their videos that we can never hear the narration! All they're doing is turning away viewers who can't hear them.
I didn't really think of Nelly Bly as forgotten. I was, however, a social science major, and so was made read about many social trends in the last 200 or so years.
Definitely not forgotten. Bly and Wilson are common knowledge. I learned about Wilson in school in the 1980s, so that's definitely not forgotten since it has long been taught in history classes. And Nelly Bly is just one of those names everyone knows. I wonder if he put those two well-known stories in the video just to get comments. I don't normally watch this channel, so I don't know if he's like that.
In Ancient times, it was easy to make somebody disappear from history. Destroy the statutes or artwork. Anybody who remembers him never speaks of him again.
I was lucky enough to attend a ceremony at the old church house at WestPoint ..its crazy, theres plaques of all the old commandants..and in the back theres one thats completely defaced with no real sign of who it is ..allthough its obvious. Talk about a grudge.
I just went to see an entire museum exhibition on Tutankhamun at the Houston Museum of Natural Science a few months ago. They dedicated tens of thousands of square feet to him, his ancestry and his reign, as they should have; he’s fascinating to this day. However, he’s hardly unknown ✌️
The man doing the narration is NOT James Earl Jones. James Earl Jones is the voice of Darth Vader. I don't know this gentleman's name, but he does an excellent job! James Earl Jones voice is deeper than the narrator's voice.
Herostratus committed arson by burning down one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World--the Temple of Diana at Ephesus. The ruler of Ephesus was outraged that Herostratus burned the temple just to be famous and ordered that his name be destroyed from memory, but it did not work. "Herostratic fame" is doing something horrible just to get attention and eternal fame.
America erased 2 cousins from history. Francis Bellamy who wrote the pledge of alegance. He was a Christian Socialist from the late 1800s. He was also a preacher who believed in separation of church and state. That's why the original version of the pledge had no mention of God. Edward Bellamy his cousin was also a socialist who wrote one of the biggest selling books of the late 1800s. It's called "Looking Backwards " a science fiction book about a socialist utopia. Look them up.
What I didn't get was, where did the "code name" Agent 355 come from, since the one historical reference doesn't refer to it? It's a strange omission I thought.
The Wilson situation should have been a HUGE scandal. That was not her place. The vice president was the rightful person to take the place of the president if they are unable to fulfill their duties. The fact that this is portrayed as a positive thing is disturbing. I don't care if she appears competent. That was not her role. The staff should never have let her carry on this charade. They are just as guilty
I agree. The same might be said of the current people using President Biden the same way. It is obvious he has mental issues do to age. It doesn't matter if they do or don't like the VP. She should be the President by this point as he is "Non compos mentis". His staff was NOT elected to office to run the country.
When Wison was unable to preside over the nation, legally the vice president is supposed to take over those responsibilities. Instead, Thomas R. Marshall has been forgotten.
Great channel. One wonders if Caracalla didn't initiate the damnatio Memoriai in order to assuage his guilt as much as to Elizabeth the rival that had been his father's favorite. That Septimus Severus loved Getta is certain. That he foresaw trouble for the man by way of his brother Caracalla is also certain. If Getta had lived, Rome might have bought a slightly longer survival. Caracalla did the one thing that was certain to destroy Rome. He gave universal citizenship to all the people in the provinces. This was done in the hopes of bolstering the legions, but what it did was weaken citizenship to the point where being a Citizen carried no special status any longer. Now the Empire had nothing to offer new peoples but domination. Not a great sales pitch. His baths were impressive though. None of all that would save Romes second most cruel Emperor. His prartorian guard murdered him. Being that he killed his own more worthy brother... he had it coming.
Who is Moses? ...is what I would be saying if he belonged in this video. Moses was not erased from history. Of course WIlson and Bly weren't, either. They've never been unknown. Their stories are common knowledge and they're still in the video, so maybe Moses would fit in after all.
The only rehabilitation I needed asca toy box killers victim with her head in a locked box of hypnosis was the truth. I will NEVER forgive anyone in this country.
Nice video. I'm surprised to see Bly and Wilson on here, though, since they are so well known. If someone tried to erase them from history, they sure did fail! The Wilson story was taught in school when I was a kid nearly half a century ago! And Nelly Bly is just common knowledge that everyone knows.
As I read through the comments, I can tell who the young people are. So many people think that this or that person was unknown before the internet, and the people they name are people who have been taught in schools for so long that I learned about them in school myself, and I'm an old woman now. It makes me wonder if some of those "erased" people really ever were attempted to be erased or if people started rumors about it, like how kids these days start rumors that so-and-so was not well-known before the internet even though all us old folks learned about them in school before schools even had computers, let alone internet.
It sounds like Edith Wilson was actually a very intelligent woman. She would've well BEEN qualified it appears. And it looks like Woodrow trusted her. She was much more worthy with secrets than 45 is.
