Perhaps Nikola Tesla was in love with a dove

The downside genialnosti

Nikola Tesla - one of the most interesting and eccentric people in history to achieve that, however, is often attributed to Thomas Edison. However, some of the stories about it more than strange, even taking into account how unusual person he was.

According to Wikipedia, one of these stories happened in the last years of his life. He loved his hand dove.

In 1937 Tesla left the house after midnight. He was heading to the local cathedral and the library to feed the pigeons. But on the way he was hit by a cab: Tesla fell to the ground from the excruciating pain in the back and three broken ribs.

Throughout his life, Tesla never went to a doctor. This case - is no exception, so that just about had received injuries while we will never know. For a while, he could not feed the pigeons, because he was bedridden. Going back, he began in the spring of 1938.

In his later years, Tesla came every day to the park and feed the pigeons. One wounded white dove he took and spent more than $ 2,000 to treat it and keep with all the amenities.

He said that he loved this dove like a man a woman, and she loves it. While he was with her in his life made sense. Yes, Tesla was a genius, but too strange. If Wikipedia is not lying, of course.
