      No, Leonardo didn't design, invent or create anything. He was a painter. That's it. Everything he is given credit for he copied from two books published before he was even born.

      @@thinkmediadeeper we know a great deal about Leonardo actually. Many people wrote about him. He has a biography and autobiographies. He also kept journals and left codex. The only problem is, those codices, anyone prolific reader knows he didn't create them. He copied them. Then used them to look for work. Which, when employed he couldn't complete the projects he was hired to do. Nevada he didn't know how. He copied them from Mariano Taccalo. Who published two books about machines, canals, water management, parachutes, flying machines, vitruvian man, etc a generation before Leo was born. The only people whom believe Leo a great inventor or genius are people whom do not read.
      But you are correct. Just because Leonardo said he was a vegetarian doesn't mean he actually was. Just newscaster Leo said he was not straight and was in love with Thomas doesn't mean he actually was. But if we can't go by his word and the word of his contemporaries, what do we have left?

      @prepperjonpnw6482 3 года назад +50

      I agree with you whole heartedly. I just had a conversation with a friend of mine who mentioned how “advanced” my 9 year old grandson is. We discussed how my son doesn’t simply rely upon the school to educate my grandson. My grandson spends time with me (his grandfather), his great grandmother, his mom and dad as well as several aunts and uncles and his other grandparents. He is encouraged to explore all sorts of interests and is given plenty of opportunities to learn about things not covered in his school. Also my son keeps an eye on the homework the school assigns as well as checking in on the teachers on a regular basis for insight as to the curriculum being taught. I help him with learning things that are above his grade level so that he isn’t held back by the school having to stick to a certain pace for each subject. For instance my grandson happens to be naturally good at math so I am teaching him math that the school won’t get around to until several grades above the one he is in now. Another subject he has a huge interest in is space and everything that comes with that. So last Christmas I got him a really good telescope as well as a number of books about space and the universe including planets and stars and blackholes etc. My point is that as a family we encourage him and support him as much as we can, we do the same for all of the grandchildren in our family. Some of them are very much into music and play various instruments, a few love art and draw or paint as much as they like. Overall we as a family don’t expect the schools to be able to give each and every child the attention and support they need and deserve. So we do a lot for our children and grandchildren outside of the school setting. Lots of field trips to museums and art festivals as well as spending time outdoors in the forest and streams all over the Pacific Northwest. Next year I’m taking my grandson with me to England for 2 months to spend time with our family that lives there. So he will get to see a lot if things first hand and in person that most children don’t. From roads built by the Romans to cathedrals and some of the greatest museums in the world plus take a ride on a double decker bus lol. We all need to realise that schools just aren’t equipped to give each and every child the individual personalised attention and encouragement that they deserve. Its up to us to do that for our children and grandchildren especially those of us that are retired and have nothing but time on our hands lol

I myself have ran my own business, written 6 screenplay, I paint on canvas, I have several inventions waiting for patents and I also do computer art. I also work on cars and other machinery. Still can't find interest of others as they hate it when I outline my accomplishments. Maybe I should have left Canada. I blame our education system that trains people to be good employees rather than inventive entrepreneurs . Look around you, there are people like him everywhere.

    Two of the reasons that the Mona Lisa was a striking painting even back then was that it was a portrait painted outdoors. And that it was “an unknown” woman of no distinction. Only people of wealth nobility or royalty high portraits painted of them back then. And you can’t emphasize enough the fact that Leonardo was really the first famous flamboyant artist personality. He really created the whole cult of personality regarding artists who back then of course as you mentioned were considered craftsman. Thank you for the excellent biography.

    Wow, i'm speechless! Leonardo da Vinci, he's as close to being super human, as any human could well be. A truly, truly impressive, talented, intelligent & hardworking human being. Thank you, Leonardo da Vinci, for your time on this earth & for your many talents & gifts. May you RIP. To all reading my message, please never give up on your dreams and personal aspirations. Just believe in yourself and be your own biggest influencer. We may not be the great Leonardo da Vinci, BUT, we all possess a talent or two and if we put our minds into all we want & we turn our thoughts into something very practical, we CAN make things happen. Never give up on yourself and always give things a try, for if you try not, you'll never know what might have been. Don't allow the years to pass by doing nothing, then carrying great regret afterward, for regret, it's a sheer waste of your time. Thank you for sharing this video & my best wishes sent to all.

    I see da Vinci's story as a testament to what happens when we remove barriers to creativity. How many people throughout history were born with gifts of this level, but they were peasants, field workers, or worse - women? How much raw talent was smothered because of humanity's horrendous misogyny and bigotry. Even with da Vinci, imagine if a Medici had not been caught up in his sodomy scandal - da Vinci may have wasted away in prison or been executed.
    Even today, how many da Vincis are wasting their talents in dead-end, low paying jobs, struggling to pay rent while taking care of children or parents? No time to rest, much less quench their insatiable curiosity and creativity. It seemed like da Vinci struggled with ADHD and depression. Now he would be put on pharmaceuticals, numbed into compliance so he could keep grinding away at a purposeless existence.
    The freedom to explore and express this level of creativity is a privilege still afforded only to a few, even today. In a just society, it would be available to everyone. Imagine how much we would all benefit if all the da Vincis in our day-to-day lives were allowed to invent and create to their fullest potential.

And remember that the history books were written by people and many times those people did write what they wanted depending on their condition sex culture affiliations or what the person they served wanted. In recent years historians have changes their views on so many things they discovered that roman emperors like Catilina and Nero weren't the monsters they were depicted to be in the ancient texts for instance they discovered that ancient Egypt had more than one female pharaon (and how many people do you think know this?) and I could go on and this is because history has been manipulated for millenia. So you can be cancelled from history if someone with power wanted and the same people or oppressive cultures can prevent you from doing anything meaningful in your life.

      Even with the finest schooling you will never see it again Justin.. because the work is done, the low hanging fruit is gone and we learn more in a classroom setting than he did in his entire life. He would spend months puzzling over something we take for granted in knowing. Practicing that deep critical thinking and curiosity for a lifetime is what sets him apart. We simply do not need it and it's why despite our huge population, there will never be another genius of this level while we have access to instant information. What we practice is the opposite of creativity and curiosity... rote memorization of those who have come before us. The geniuses of today are just those who have the capacity to remember the most, and they will ultimately contribute nothing new.

      @D Moll Complete and utter nonsense. The oppression of religion and the rich/powerful are still felt today holding back many especially in the global south which is plundered by the global north mercielessly.

      @@mikebaugus4859 Wrong. Critial thinking and open mindednes are crucial to science and GOOD schools/teachers make sure that their students learn this. Yes a FOUNDATION has to be layed as we do not want our children to reinvent the wheel over and over. Geniuses will continue to contribute to society just like the average person which are the foundation of any society, your garbage collectors, sewage workers, farmers, nurses, teachers, etc.

    kind of spoiler alert ...
    the fact that he bought birds at the markets and set them free and that he recognized that all animals have feelings exactly the same as we humans do makes me love him! (edit to add: I think the reason he didn't have a conflict to design weapons is because unlike other animals, humans aren't blameless and he probably was trying to help those who needed it to defend themselves) ... Thanks for this amazing video! I learned a lot. 💙

    See now that’s so beautiful how his uncle saw how his mind couldn’t stay on focus so he sent him out to attract attention by other things and helped his creative process mindset with that of more, not staying trapped inside and boxed in. This is how so many more could be able to explore so much more. Just that one seeing them in a better light and more they can be, not limited to what others think that we all should be. Thank you for this video and encouragement of more in my own ways of becoming able to express myself in ways I’ve never heard or been guided.
