This is a video that I always wanted to do because as you know Nikola Tesla is my Idol. It took me several months of researching but I know I will get things wrong on the video so please correct me through the comments. I hope you guys enjoy it! This one came straight from the heart.

Olá integza, adoro os teus videos e sei que também és português, às vezes quem me dera vê los na nossa lingua por isso fica aí a sugestão, adiciona uma faixa de audio em português nos teus futuros videos, talvez até consigas atingir mais população brazileira e portuguesa dessa forma. Continua o bom trabalho!
Yep, same. I always have loved what Nikola Tesla did. I really admire his efforts
Its so much quality information here! I want to give you a gift man that have all in common with this video, its a coil gun project ( yes, another one ) but different from anything I've found on the internet, because it is super simple and yet super efficient due to this build. How can I show it to you? Thanks!
12:20 doubt this is what you meant by pointing out mistakes, but you say 1986 when you meant 1896.
Awesome little documentary though. I’ve seen a lot of stuff about Tesla and still learned new things.
You inspire me the way Tesla inspires you. Keep up the great work!!!
The style of this video was drastically different. I love how much heart you put into this one Joel. As fellows of Tesla, you and I both owe him credit for making this incredible world around us. Nice work.
Wholesome comment
edit: and agreed
No one prob cares but my first actual circuit I've made was a crappy tesla coil
Also love your content @PlasmaChannel
@@Earth-To-Zan That's one hell of a first circuit
You know he's stealing your motor from earlier 🤣🤣🤣
As a student attending the University RUclips, you two are the best professors x
Me and our head design engineer spent 2 hours today at our company Xmas do discussing the advances you have made in this field in terms of getting heads thinking.
You got at least two blokes in New Zealand making dumb plans 😂, keep up the amazing work fellas, and love you both
It's insane how many small tragedies happened in this man's life. But he never gave up even when he saw no reward. It's incredibly sad how his life turned out in the end despite everything he did for the human race. His misfortunes and obsession with wireless power completely destroyed him, but not before he changed the world forever
I think some of those tragedies were certainly orchestrated by his rivals.
Men of lesser intellect and much greed. Whereas Tesla had boundless ingenuity and no greed to speak of.
@@George.___ yeah, and it makes me sick to think it's the same kind of people still having their grip over most of the world..
Greedy people ook him away from humanity :(
14:30
from my understanding, both the current *and* voltage are actually high enough to kill in most tesla coils. The reason why it's so harmless is because the frequency is so high that it's never active long enough to depolarize the membranes of your nerves, meaning that it never actually does anything really. It can still cause internal burning though if you're exposed to it long enough, so it's not *completely* safe to handle for long periods of time
Yep, and tesla coil also doesn't increase voltage by decreasing current. It actually increases it. Integza was probably mentioning the formula P = U * I, where P has to be equal or lower after the transformer. The problem is that this formula works with phasors, and it uses complex multiplication. The irony is it stays exactly the same, as you would expect, for DC but behaves quite differently for AC. Its ac equivalent with normal numbes instead of phasors would be P = U * I * a (where U is voltage, I current and a the power factor). From it, you can see that both U and I can be much higher but at the expense of making a almost 0.
A new tesla is among us. I loved the video. This is the type of video you watch while eating food. Not tomatoes tho

I want you to make a video on cooling homes using an areogel cooler I mean idk much about it but something I found while watching videos and it amazed me quite a lot
Have you been to the power plant that Tesla helped build in Niagara Falls yet? They just reopened that one and restored it for visitors. I haven't been in it yet but was always hoping they would for decades (always looked in at the huge dynamos inside) and was surprised a couple of years ago to hear they were fixing it up. You should do a video going through there and explaining the 9 patents that they have on the plaque that he held that helped make the power station work. I can show you around if you need help getting around when you are here.
I have been to Niagara Falls but those generators weren't open to visit. I was sad, because I knew it was made by Nikola Tesla.
Hey Integza !
Bring back the moustach for Tesla ! =D
Integza, my man, my bro, you need to do more informative essays like this, I LOVE your antics with 3d printing but you also have a knack for explaining these things in depth without sounding pedantic or tiring, loved this
(Video Idea)
Make a particle accelerator rocket engine that feeds propellent in a chamber on one side, and then accelerates propellent to very high speeds with alternating electro-magnets. The magnets switch from a positive to a negative charge. The propellent formula contains metal so that it gets attracted to the magnets, and then repelled. On the end of the accelerator where the propellent is supposed to exit out of, attach an ignitor that ignites the propellent with an electric charge so that it ignites when getting shot out of the engine.
Brilliant idea
Thank you@@kenny0178

Me gusta to comentario y tu idea! 😊
My favorite part of this video is how Integza showed the "showmanship" that made Tesla famous: he was not just a great inventor, he was a great content creator 😂
When Tesla was put on Serbian Dinara, I made sure to get my hands on some, and even framed two of the bills. I also have a copy of all his articles, lectures, and patents from US Gov publications. He has always fascinated me, and it makes me so happy younger generations are just as fascinated by him.
I have 20 serbian dinar coin that have Tesla on them, they are very rare. Normal 20 dinars have Sava Church
@@Dark_Matter2 oh, I need the coins.
Are these still available publicly anywhere? (articles, lectures, and patents)
I have 200 note of indian currency as i live in india 😂
@@TheZolon guy is selling 20 dinars for 80 dinars lmao (less than a dollar)
Hey Integza! They make portable jet heaters that put out 100,000 BTU and look like a jet engine. I think it would be very interesting to convert one into a jet or rocket engine. The way I understand, it already has the fuel injection and a fan, so it would be cool to see the thrust it could produce with a nozzle and other modifications!
You did an amazing job explaining and presenting this in a very informative, fun and easy to follow manner. How about more science history.
Love the video, very educational! One note, voltages on Tesla coils are usually way less than they appear. It’s common to estimate the output voltage by arc length, but this cannot be done accurately with Tesla coils, especially a QCWDRSSTC like the Tesla gun shown at 14:24 . Tesla coils are high frequency AC and take advantage of spark propagation techniques to achieve very large sparks with lower voltages. QCWs we’re designed specifically for this and have been measured at 2m arcs. Other medium sized Tesla coils are probably operating around the 100-300kV range, until you get to the 10-20 foot tall Tesla coil range where you start approaching 1MV on the output. Also, voltage and current are not the only factors at play with Tesla coils. Styropyro proved this by touching a monstrous 100kV 3A output Tesla coil (fantastic video, I’d highly recommend!). There are many many more factors to consider other than “it’s the current that kills”. Tesla coil voltages and lethal power properties are just about the 2 buffers myths/misconceptions about electricity, so I wanted to try to clear those up. Overall an amazing video, I learned a ton I didn’t know about Tesla despite building his coils myself! Thanks for the high quality upload!
ElectroBoom did a video on this and as I recall frequency also plays a huge role. I think it changes how the current flows through different mediums and thus can cause an otherwise lethal current to flow harmlessly over the skin (there are aspects I don't fully understand yet).
@@grn1 yeah, the skin effect does cause current flow to be pushed to the outer area of the conductor at high frequencies, but this effect is also dependent on the conductivity of the medium. Since humans have a poor conductivity, the skin effect does not play a large role in Tesla coil lethality. It does act very strongly on copper though, and you can notice the effect in the primary coil within Tesla coils, as it overheats easily due to less area being used. This is also why people use special wire, called litz wire, made up of many smaller insulated wires to help carry the current. The video by Styropyro goes more in depth on all this if you’re wanting to learn more.
@@Electronic4081Pretty sure I've seen that video but it's been a while so I've forgotten a lot of the details.
Honestly, I think it would be really cool to see you reverse engineer some of Tesla‘s work, by following his notes, and basically building a series of prototypes up until his final design. It might help you understand more the way his brain worked, and may inspire you!
Interesting! Old notes
I’d watch that
Great idea!
he made and kept no notes, he boasted that he didn't need them. So we lost it all when he died.
There's a guy who has built a fully functioning tesla turbine engine on youtube. I forget his name but if you search tesla turbine you'll see him eventually. It's a legit build
Idea for next video - Nikola Telsa Part (II) ofc, really really need it ❤
nice video, an idea for the next video is to use a jet engine to lift off the ground (idk like 1/2 m)
Not a disappointing video from Integza yet to date. Keep up the great work! Thank you!
14:30 thing that kills people from alternating current is heart malfunction. It disrupts its regular work and blood flow.
Heart muscle is not able to keep with high frequency current so it's work is not disrupted when playing with the Tesla coil.
You have also used DC source in the Tesla coil diagram.
Overall a great episode.
i love your video, create a drone with 4 jet engines and see what height it reaches pls :D
Just a quick heads-up at 2:00: The Messerschmitt ME 163 was not the only rocket airplane operated by a human in history. Other notable examples are the X-15 and X-1. Speaking of that aircraft, I think an awesome future video would be developing an engine similar to the one on the aircraft. You've made devices to catalyze decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the past, and used them for propulsion, but what about combusting a fuel in the oxygen (product of H2O2 decomposition) and using this reaction for thrust?
Also tomatoes are disgusting ;)
Perhaps he should have clarified that it was the only rocket fighter to enter service. The X series planes were purely research planes after all.
what about the MXY-7 Ohka
@@among_us_is_an_imposter5784 the ohka was a human guided cruise missle
Plus the Ki-200 and the BI
@@GingerTabby7 but it is still a rocket powered airplane operated by a human
I am still waiting for that tesla coil video
I'm still waiting to win a printer 🤣
Integza, great video, different format was still excellent
However, the lack of tomato sacrifice is atrocious and I am appalled.
I’ll be watching every single video to make sure this is resolved!
Imagine mark twain just casually popping in and talking about how he’s constipated
That was a very unexpected and fascinating look at the great man. Excellent work Sir. ❤
can all take a moment and think how many engine video he made for us?
theme for future video: can we run a jet engine with only compressed air ?
pov: me waiting to see if my comment get like for the 3D printer xP
🤟
Hi Integza, not sure if you heard it already but the old lab of Tesla (Wardenclyffe) recently burned down and they are trying to raise money for restoration. Perhaps a shout out in your video may help. (I am not affiliated in any way).
Great video as usual!
Video Idea: The history of Davinci and how his inventions live on in the modern world.
I would love to see a video showing simple, low-cost, and safe ways to make a tesla coil, I'm a new subscriber so if you have already made one then thank you!
I love your videos, the topic you cover fascinates me very much.
How far can you make a tomato fly and then crash to the ground? XD
good content, idea: create a jet engine that runs on a compressed gas
Finally, saw this coming with all your love and respect for him throughout many of your videos lol. Nice.
It's really amazing how every time I watch a video about Tesla's life work, his struggle and inventions, there's aways a "Wait, but there's more!" moment.
a video explaining and testing out advantages / disadvantages of various amounts of rotational mass for a compressor fan
Video idea: rocket powered vacuum that uses rocket motors to spin turbine and pull in particles
Love the Nikola tesla content, I believe he is one of the world's greatest minds ever
That would be awesome
Omg dude, solid state rocket vacuum😂
I would like to see that
Well Nicola Tesla was an absulate genius, a man who loved technical inovation and was never in it for the money. May we all find our true passions in life and may we stay headstrong when adversity hit us in life❤
video idea:
I would absolutely love to see a rocket pencil sharpener, you can figure out the details
Beautiful video, a lovely walk through history. These efforts at recreating many of Tesla's inventions, and becoming immersed in his way of thinking, will almost certainly lead to the reinvention of at least some of his works that were classified. Good luck on this journey.
I live in a small town in Washington state. In our tiny park there is a big steam engine with a description that it was used for power generation at the Chicago world’s fair while Tesla was there. Then it was bought by a lumber mill and moved to Washington state. It’s a pure joy to be around it every time I go to the park.
The story I've heard is that his RC boat needed logic circuits to be able to control the directions. Those eventually came into the legal battles about the digital computer and is a huge reason computer logic circuits were not held back by excessive licensing fees. Also some hypothetical overlap with his use of multiple frequencies and the invention of frequency hopping controlled torpedoes by Hedy Lamarr in the 1940s (but as the video mentions, most of the details of the RC boat were lost/hidden)
@gregw1076 also note that the American military ignored and rejected Hedy Lamarr's secure radio design ...just as they refused to fund Tesla's "secure radio" system, when he presented it to them around ?1902?
The day is always a good day when Tomatoguy posts a new video
Don't know how you could top this video, I've been fascinated with Tesla my entire life and you brought me much more information than I have found previously.
I'd love to see a collaboration between you, plasma channel and styro pyro.
I think a collaborative project between you three might come up with something world changing(and maybe slightly terrifying, in a good way.)
Thank you 🙏
I still like to believe his "Death Ray" was Micro-Wave Radiation, man was playing with electromagnets constantly, he fried a bird or three and was "too dangerous for humans" and deleted notes
You are the modern Tesla. I’m glad someone worthy of the title picked up the mantle.
Some ideas:
How about introducing some cooling (water or oil) to your engines, as in regular jet engine? Temperature seems to be killing them, even cooling the casing should work.
There is a concept of using hydrogen as fuel in Brayton cycle either for propulsion or to produce steam (H2+O2) and generate electricity.
I'd love to see your approach to utilise rainwater (or its artificial equivalent) in some kind of impulse turbine. There are a couple of them eg. Pelton Turbine, Turgo Wheel Turbine, Crossflow or Bánki-Michell or Ossberger Turbine.
Great video!
A cooling system is a good idea, but wouldn't it negatively impact aerodynamics by making the build bulkier?
@@genericbeansmile756 Might, good point, but depends on design.
For instance you can use additional tube to create a gap for fluid to flow through, and it would be sacrifice of only several mm. Another idea is to redirect some air after compression for cooling (but lower power). On the other hand Joel most of the time tests his designs in static operation.
Well, after all even if it increased drag it would make the engine more durable and usable.
The hydrogren propulsion tech would be interesting; especially with solid-state hydrogen tech slowly coming through (i.e. dramatically reduces the risk of it blowing up)
Iirc because the interconversion back is temperature dependent you can somewhat control the rates of release too
I think the information you spread.. makes you almost as big as Tesla.. Your dedication makes the world different in a good way.
Hello Integza! It would be awesome if you could try to make a hydrogen and oxygen internal combustion engine that gets the gases from electrolysis. Great video. Thanks!
You are an inspiration to many of us Joel. Thank you for all that you do.
Integza...I love you man. That part about the oscillating chair and Mark literally sh*tting himself on max setting, priceless ROFL!
Thank you Joel for this video, finally an accurate historical telling of Tesla's life.
I have read his autobiography and the biographies written about him and this is keeping with all of it.
So much garbage out there about his life and the things he supposedly invented.
You have truly honoured his name.
A fantastic documentary, presented really well. I hope one day you do an hour long special - so much more to talk about
Love this channel. Everything you are doing is both entertaining and educational. I propose making an engine that doubles as a water purifier... could be world changing. If anyone can do it, you can bud! Keep up the good work!
Paul pantone did that. He built a suitcase sized air powered plasma Z pinch fuel reformer that not only powered ICE motors, also produced clean air and water from literally any vapor. Plus replicated every electrical feature of the planet (with enough moisture in the air, miniature tornadoes.)
I have a couple of ideas for future video themes, you could do a video using examples from Tesla, or you could use inventions Tesla made to make crazy new inventions. Or what if you tried making something completely different. Like for example, you could make rockets or make a rocket propelled plane and if you have the time, make it remote controlled or something along those lines
Not for the 3d printer, but in any of your future videos please try experimenting on electro-gravitics specially on the biefield-brown effect and make your own propulsion device with it. Also break some myths regarding this area. I hope this excites you all.
This video is a testament to Tesla's creativity and technical skills. The attention to detail in his work is truly remarkable .
You can build a cool railgun with visible sparks like in a particle accelerator which charges up and shoots afterwards with a projectile with electric sparks.
You should build that oscillating chair and see if it actually works.
This was excellent. I like your normal videos but a side channel of thse would be awesome
You are absolutely right that you only can use a transformer to step up/down the voltage using a transformer. But to transmit electricity you CAN use DC just as well as AC using electronic converters.
Fantastic video. I always wanted to learn more about such an amazing man. I glad you made this video to show us who he was and how important his influence was. Your videos have inspired me to create my own fun projects and explore different things I never thought I would be interested in. I know plasma has been used in small test engines before but I think it would be cool if you could make more videos showcasing the uses of electricity in things like propulsion systems.
Great video as always.
Here a video idea: try to create a magneto hydrodynamic driver (MHD).
For the ones who dont know it basically is a aquatic thruster With no moving parts and it just relays on magnetic fields to impulse water
You want a suggestion for a new video? Please, more of that! The documentary was so well done, and there are still fantastic personalities about who you could make a documentary, like Michael Faraday or James Clerk Maxwell.
Hello from Ohio! Recently discovered your content and love your process. May you always remain curious my friend never stop creating.
you know.. I'd like to see you have fun. Like maybe a video compilation of bloopers, and mishaps that you've cut before... Maybe you can add commentary... this may help you with time, allowing you to give us more of you, your family, and why you do what you do, without expecting a crazy expensive creation. less stress, more mess! lol. p.s.: Thank you for helping Tesla to live on. Great vid! ( i mean you always do great vids... it helps keep the tomatoes away! )
I just got into electronics and am working on my first prototype and could really use a 3d printer as I've already sunk over $400 into this so here's my idea for a future video: a video that theorizes the circuitry involved in Tesla's giant energy tower! I have always been curious why no one has ever really talked about the tower itself and I'm very curious about what people think it could have been. Anyways, love your videos and probably need to watch closer to upload to have a chance but worth a shot, right?! Love the video and have a good one
That idea sounds badass
It's a big-arse Tesla Coil. The back-end theory has a big fault, though, and it was never going to work as he thought it would.
@@thekaxmaxI've read that paper, he talks about pumping all that energy in the field without it spiking like a tesla coil, it's the opposite of a tesla coil.
But as any electrical engineer knows:
You can't just transmit energy over air without a confined media, the power decreases by the square of the distance.
To transmit power over wireless, you have to quadruple the current every meter away, which is probably why we don't use it. If my napkin calculations are right and they aren't. That's enough to transmit information, but very little energy.
Unless you can create a monopole magnetic field. Then it will perfectly stretch forever without losses like a superconductor because the entire universe is the other pole.
Maybe if I understood the paper correctly, the entire idea was using the antenna/tower as a monopole and the entire magnetic field of the planet as a wire.
Then any other antenna/tower in the entire planet would be able to catch it.
A massive current would pass in the underground soil, around the planet. Like in an iron core of a transformer. (I wounder about the losses but I didn't dare to calculate it and be disappointed )
It's too bad the mathematics of that requires a magnetic monopole to work (without pumping huge amounts of currents to get a tenth of a percent on the other side)
Antennas close a path, they form a dipole. To try to use the entire earth as a monopole antenna ?
Maybe he went a bit too far.
His idea is more insane than that of the electric universe.
Or maybe his was the basis for that insanity.
A monopole magnet , what a fun imagination.
@@monad_tcp he thought EMF could resonate the same way sound does, to allow standing waves.
We all know it don't go like that.
@@thekaxmax oh, yes, I forgot about that.
The entire idea required that there was a standing wave in the fields.
Not the mere ressonation of the circuits like it can happen in radio.
Another insane requirement .
This video could've been 3x longer and still be great :) Some ideas don't seem plausible, like the wireless energy, as it would require huge voltage gradients and could in my imagination even cause the ionosphre to light up.
Video idea: While it's not really original as I've been thinking about it for like a year now, what about creating a semi-auto cannon powered by HHO? If you would be able to somehow make it rapid-fire as in just reloading the projectile and firing instantly, without waiting for a new gas charge, that would be awesome. Something like a valve system with pressurised HHO.
I just thought I’d mention that pressurizing or storing bulk HHO is never a good idea. It’s a mixture of a fuel and oxidizer that happen to be way more sensitive than normal propellants or H.E.
It’s best to never have more than the amount you actually plan on setting off, and never have an amount of HHO exist somewhere where it igniting would be a problem.
My vague understanding of the wireless energy is that the earth itself would become an oscillating capacitor, then yeah the ionosphere would be the "coil" of the "circuit"
Now days we use the earth as "ground", meaning if we turn it into a capacitor, most of our electrical devices will burn out if someone tries this same idea now... is more the conspiracy side of it probably
@@gregw1076 my gut feeling, before crunching any numbers, is that the ionosphere and earth’s surface would both be very lossy.
Failing that, every tree, person, damp terrain feature etc is also an antenna or at very least act as a capacitor/resistor combination being put across the waveguide/resonator.
Resonance can allow you to have very high electric fields, currents, and magnetic fields with very low continuous power input . But that only works as long as every component in the system is able to pass those high voltages, currents, fields, frequencies etc without dissipating very much real power.
The more resistance you have in series or parallel, or the more electrical loads, opportunities for “far field” electromagnetic radiation to escape the system etc, the more power has to be fed into the resonance.
@@deltab9768 Well, you aren't wrong, but we're talking about a cannon, and an explosive proppelant. Both of which aren't safe and both should be done only by people with some self-consciousness in their minds.
Also not many people know that HHO can explode on it's own just from being pressurised too much, or IIRC even from being depressurised (or was that with just hydrogen, but still a simple jet can cause ignition). If Integza would make it a scaled model, it could be a small charge comparable to a tiny firecracker with maybe a BB as the projectile. Loaded separately, in style of soviet tanks. Then, even in an event of unplanned fireworks going off nothing should have harmful shrapnel. As long as you wear protective gear like glasses. :)
@@gregw1076 How would the earth act as a capacitor?
Hi integza I love your 3d printed rocket videos, and I’m always looking forward to seeing what you use for fuel! Maybe you could make a video about lasers idk.
Hi everybody, the theme I'd like to see is about the process Integza has been through to become in what is now a day. I really like the channel, is inspiring.
Video suggestion: Crafting a custom hydroponic gardening system from scratch! Your engineering skills could turn this into a captivating project, blending technology and agriculture.
As an automotive electrical engineer. I greatly enjoyed this video, your passion and the associated history. Thank you so much for your time in putting this together.
THANK YOU!
This video has got to be one of the best you've done. The passion and knowledge projected into this really shone through and the explanation about how AC power changed the fundamentals of power generation and transmission.
Because of this, hopefully people will to try to learn a little more about Mr Tesla,
He keeps on constantly being associated with some of the worlds most iconic electrical inventions in history.
With your newfound abilities working with metal, I would love to see you attempt a liquid rocket engine powered by a tap-off gas generator. I recognize this is a massive challenge, but if any amateur rocketeer can do it, you can
I just realized how accurate the comparison between a capacitor and a balloon are is. They both can act as a reservoir of potential for later use, they both can act as a buffer for smoother operation of some type of equipment especially when the primary power source is smaller than it ideally should be, and they both explode spectacularly when they are massively over loaded.
I need some edits of Nicolas tesla and mark twain being besties
Video Idea: Would love to see you exploring how to make engines more efficient in terms of the ratio between consumption x thrust
I would like to see a video on the history of Tesla after he died, where his inventions evolved and where they are still being used today. On the theoretical side, where would we be if Tesla had became as successful as Edison?
We would probably be exactly where we are. All the stuff tesla came up with that worked, other people ran with and developed into useful things... but he also had a lot of ideas that don't work, and people tend to fantasize about the second category being the first and thus we would have all sorts of magical tech today.
There is also the problem of history and our limited focus. We tend to like the idea of learning about a handful of easy to remember 'great men' for any particular era and forget that they were actually not all that unique and for every person history likes talking about there were countless others just as smart and doing good work but who's stories do not make for engaging narratives.
Amazing video! An idea for a future video could be an engine that directly powers a generator or 2 and see how close you can get to 0 energy loss during the process to create an almost infinite engine...
I'd definitely be interested in seeing a video going into VFDs and VVVFs. The technology of converting DC to AC through high speed solid state switches is a surprisingly deep subject!
Mark Twain jumping on that chair and turning it to the max makes me imagine the the situation playing out like the scene in The Princess Bride when the death machine is set to the max. I imagine Tesla yelling "Not 50!" hahaha
Amazing video! Loved that you dedicated an entire video to celebrate one of our greatest innovators of all time! 💡
I have always wondered about Tesla's grand plan of global power transition which was his very last ambition. As you have covered many of Tesla's inventions before, covering this last grand idea in more detail would be a really interesting video! Would it be possible to create today or would it just be too expensive? How would the world look if he had succeeded?
the idea was effectively to harness the power of lightning. as you have probably noticed tesla coils produce what looks like lightning, just on a much smaller scale.
his giant tesla tower was effectively designed to electrify the upper atmosphere, which would then be drawn down towards the earth. if captured using a mechanism similar to a lightning rod, one could transmit power, using the atmosphere as a wire.
the problem with this though is that most electricity would be wasted. tesla was supposedly able to light up entire fields of lightbulbs using this passive power, but that also means the electricity was dispersed evenly across the entire field, whether something was there to use it or not.
if someone could figure out how to instead send direct bolts of electricity to their intended destinations, then it would actually be usable.
it would cost a good few million dollars to design, yet nobody wants to sink the money into it because it isnt profitable (cant really measure who uses power or how much, so cant bill for it). if he had succeeded then we would simply have wireless power technology, which would solve a good few battery issues as you wouldnt need to haul all your needed energy with you. though thanks to the profit issue it would not be for commercial use.
@aidenaune7008 Thanks for all the details!
I love the ambitious scope of the project. Many scientists originally have a very "utopian" outlook for their discoveries, but are sadly often hampered by commercial structures... I guess that is one of the main differences between science fiction and "science faction", that in order to realise technology, there must be some economical benefits to justify any investments, not just a cool or utopian vision.
@@Particelomen to be fair, economical translates directly to useful. peopleonly buy what is useful, even if that use is something wasteful like feeding a sweet tooth. sure the towers would be useful to the average person on paper, but it would actually jut destroy the electricity market and thus there would be no power for the average person. being able to tell who uses what and charge them for it turns out to be very useful.
Hi there I have idea hear me out,
You can make a video about generating electricity with the help of plasma thruster like a windmill which in return will help the thruster work and give extra electricity to use otherway. I would like to call this as "Infinite electricity glitch" through the help of plasma energy
And I really need the 3D printer and I mean it.😂

Thank you 😊

I like that integza used Vivaldi's spring for the radio demo, cause the movie The Current War, which featured Tesla heavily, used Max Richter's recomposition of spring for the world's fair montage
What i would like to know more about is why tesla was not remembered for a very long time and suddenly started getting recognition.
He deserves all the recognition, don't get me wrong. But was it realy the case of the loudest voice wins?
Can we get some appreciation for Lord Kelvin? The man was an accomplished scientist, who, when faced with information that contradicted his opinion, changed his mind and acted on that, unlike many other people in this video.
Building on your Glass Rocket Video I think a cool idea would be utilizing the hypergolic properties of Hydrogen Peroxide to build a bipropellant system with the catalyst being a silver mesh like the X-15, German V-2, UK Black Arrow, US Redstone, US Mercury Capsule Attitude Control or the Soyus Spacecraft monopropellant control thrusters. The Hydrogen Peroxide could then be used as the first propellant and it's decomposed parts (mainly the oxygen) as the oxidizer for the second fuel of the bipropellant system (butane, kerosene, alcohol, etc.). Safer (...somewhat, we are talking about rocket fuel here) and much less toxic than other options.
My brother and I started with June Bugs on strings, then graduated with Bumblebees on strings. We'd catch them and put them in the freezer for a few minutes so we could tie them up, then see how long we could fly them without being stung! 😂
Iam 15 years old and I watch your videos and learn a lot and I am super engineer in my school 😁
Video idea:
Make a tesla coil that can transmit electricity as far as Tesla(1,938 ft/591 m) had or further to charge your phone to 100% with a timelapse and everything.
Much of what Tesla did wasn't invention, but innovation. He took the science of the day and improved it!
video suggestion:
3d print the best possible replica of that 1898 RC boat.
make it accurate to the available options at that time. use a L-C Circuit with 3 distinguishable frequencies on your control station and 3 corresponding antennas on the boat.
1 frequency/function for forward
1 for left turn
1 for right turn
idea for the construction: 1 antenna is trying to power a brushless (maybe also 3d printed with some later added metal parts) motor.
the other two antennas could be used to power an mechanical switch to switch the rudder like neutral position (straight forward), left and right position.
and dont forget the lights =)
Hard to image what Tesla could have done with more freedom and funding! Great video!
Love the Lord Kelvin intro like, "Have you heard of thermodynamics?"😂
This is the kind of stuff that needs to be taught in school. I always thought Edison was just a lightbulb guy, and had no clue he was so opposed to AC and had ‘wars’ with Tesla over AC vs DC. Great video as always and congrats at 1M, Integza!
One of the greatest man in history. Serbian from Yugoslavia
idea for a video: You can make an liquid fuel engine (Propane + Oxygen or something like that) by CNC cutting the nozle in Niobium (a matirial easy to cut but very resiliant to high temperatures)
My grandfather worked for Tesla for a short time, when he was a young engineer at Westinghouse. He retired from there around 50 years ago. Ironically, I work for Edison's company GE now (and looking forward to my own retirement in a few years!).
I think a cool theme for a future video would be to attempt to DIY sonic levitation. Of all the creators I've seen on youtube, you seem to have the best combo of resources and knowledge and gung-ho attitude to get it done. Good luck!
idea for future video: creates a rocket engine that works thanks to a circuit of small metal containers (I don't know what to call them) filled with oxygen and butane that are activated thanks to an ignition, but must be alternated; so the reaction happens into the small metal containers
Idea for a future video: demonstrate Thomas Townsend Brown’s electrogravitic effect (a system that purportedly generates antigravity effects through extreme high voltage).
“Brown refined his invention over the years and eventually came up with designs consisting of metal plates or disks charged with 25,000 to 200,000 volts that would produce a propulsive force, which he continued to claim was an anti-gravity force.”
