Nikola Tesla was prescribed a lot. They called him a crook pool, play for money addict and someone considers him legendary genius. But despite what you may have recently seen the photo above, Nikola Tesla has never been a swimming instructor.
The photo was taken in 1898. And while the man in the picture really resembles a genius inventor, it is almost certainly not him.
By 1898, Tesla achieved great success in robotics, radio and X-ray studies. He was also quite rich, very well known and could not safely swim, remain unrecognized. It seems highly unlikely that he took a job as a swimming instructor. It will be quite surprising if it turns out that the picture was faked specifically.
