56 | Srbija » Serbia Ljudi People ONI SU PROMENILI Ne, nadimak Električni Isus ne može se zaraditi tek tako, a još manje Čovek koji je izumeo 20. vek, kako su zvai Nikolu Teslu, naučnika koji je u svemu bio ispred svog vremena, blistava svetlost u moru tradicije i konzervativne nauke. Zaslužan za naizmeničnu struju, radio, bežičnu tehnologiju, daljinsko upravljanje, neonske lampe i još mnogo, mnogo toga. Takozvana Teslina struja zbog svoje visoke frekvencije nije opasna po čoveka, pa primenu nalazi i u medicini. Inače, Tesla je imao više od 700 zaštićenih patenata i inovacija, a smatran je genijem i čudakom. Rodžer Federer i Rafael Nadal jesu vredni svake pohvale, ali je naš Novak Đokovic sam na vrhu teniske planine. Nole je jedini igrač u modernom dobu koji je zaredom osvojio sva četiri grend slem turnira, a rekorde obara u svemu i svuda. Jednostavno, svaka diskusija o najboljem teniseru svih vremena mora da uključi i Beograđanina Novaka Đokovića. No, the nickname “Electric Jesus” cannot be earned just like that, and even less so that of “The Man Who Invented the 20th Century” as people dubbed Nikola Tesla, a scientist who was ahead of his time in everything, a shining light in a sea of tradition and conservative science. He is worthy of the credit for alternating current electricity, radio, wireless technology, remote controlled devices, neon lamps and much, much more. Due to the high frequency of several amperes, the so-called Tesla current is not dangerous to humans, which is why it has also found applications in medicine. It is worth noting that Tesla invented more than 700 protected patents and innovations, and that he was considered both a genius and a weirdo. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are certainly worthy of all praise, but our own Novak Đokovic stands alone at the top of themountain of tennis. Nole is the onlymale player in themodern era to have won all four Grand Slam tournaments consecutively, while he breaks records in everything and everywhere. The simple fact is that every discussion about the greatest tennis player of all timemust include this Belgrader.
