  • Inventions have helped make our lives so much more comfortable, but unknown to most is that some inventors have sacrificed a lot for their work - even their lives. Here are 20 of the most famous examples.

    Actually Thomas is actually thought by many to have committed suicide in his 'Rope Bed'. Why?
    Well, go back to the late 1910's. Motors where growing more powerful, and more impressive. But with this came a problem: knocking. Knocking is the result of one or multiple [usually multiple] pistons running so quickly that when gas is injected into the chamber the piston head comes up and so quickly that the gas explodes pre-maturely before the spark-plug goes off, which is what is *supposed* to cause the explosion. Along with the annoying knocking-like noise it can eventually lead to engine damage, and even engine failure in extremely bad cases [usually if left alone for waaaay too long].
    A company who was trying to cure this hired Thomas. He originally proposed alcohol from wheat [if I'm correct; it may have been something similar], but his boss denied it, saying literally half the country would need to become farms in order to supply what was already out there.
    Thomas eventually found lead mixed with petrol also worked, which also only required a tenth of an ounce per gallon to be effective. However, during testing Thomas became victim to lead poisoning due to this, though he recovered. Unfortunately, most of his mechanics and co-workers were not so lucky. In its first two years alone the company lost about 75 mechanics due to lead poisoning or related to lead poisoning. Although states banned it for a short time which after it was published as 'toxic' the company went to court claiming it was safe...and won. Although the success was major, and Thomas literally earned millions, many think that he felt guilty about this. Although we don't know and might never know if it was intended to be suicide, it is known he was aware of what it could do.
    Interestingly when lead gasoline was banned altogether in 1996, a year later the national IQ levels went up by an average of two points. Also, Thomas was correct; his original solution worked very well [required a little more but gave the same results] and although a little more was needed compared to lead it still did not turn half the country into farmland.

    Hollow Bull aka The Brazen Bull.
    And also Perrilos was not in fact killed in the Brazen Bull, The legend goes that he was thrown in to the bull by Phalaris to test the sound mechanism that converted the victims screams into that sound of a bellowing bull, before Perrilos was able to die in the bull, he was taken out and thrown off the top of a hill by Phalaris, Then he died.
    So.. Basically #8 should not really be on the list.. :/

      His invention might not have the direct cause of his death, but he was killed because he invented the Bull. So either way its still a good candidate for this countdown.

      Partially true, but not quite. The Nobel Prize was name dafter Alfred Nobel because he invented it because he wanted to do something that was beneficial with his life after his guilt for having created dynamite. Nobel died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1896, not from dynamite.

    (Even though he never really existed (Not that I know of at least)) It would of been really cool if you would've mentioned 'Cave Johnson', who created many robots or 'cores' to take control of a facility called 'Aperture Laboratories', but died for breathing neurotoxin along with the other workers during a meeting with other famous scientists.
    The 'core' who let that gas run through 'Aperture' was called 'GLaDOS', one of the most intelligent 'cores' Cave Johnson ever made. Cave Johnson's secretary/wife's intelligence and knowledge was passed on to GLaDO's chip/brain. Making her s intelligent as Cave Johnson himself.
    The reason GLaDOS killed Cave Johnson was because she didn't like people restraining her so she wouldn't... well... kill everyone... And look what happened.

      José Ignacio Pauly Llobet Actually, since Cave Johnson was sick with some illness, (his brain was involved in that illness, too) he wasn't healthy enough for his knowledge to be transferred into GLaDOS. Caroline -Cave Johnson's secretary/wife- offered to take his place. It was her decision.
      She was also married to science, so she wouldn't let the project down just because she was scared. She knew better than that. That's why GLaDOS cares about science more than any human could ever care for anything else.
