wheres Da Vinci, Einstein, Newton, Feynman, Bohr, Socrates.... this list is just random pickings... the ones i mentioned has all of them made a bigger difference in the world than the ones picked on the list i think...
Niccolo Machiavelli is a smart man, and he certainly was very influential in the way he recorded and wrote his thinking and theories, but there are many other minds far more deserving to replace him in this top ten. Francois-Marie Arouet (Voltaire), Ludwig Wittgenstein, Stephen William Hawking, Carl Friedrich Gauss ...just to name a few.
I’m not sure the human race is a whole human completely understands everything Tesla created or the possible applications for some of his inventions. He was so far ahead of his time I think we still don’t understand. And, of course, it appears that some of his inventions were suppressed by some parties or others, for one reason or another.
He's not really regarded as a real genius compared to a number of other historical figures, say if the list was not 10, but 30, he'd definitely be on it.
Darwin in authoritarian countries is regarded as a great scholar. Because he proved that religious hypocrisy, and provide legitimacy to dictators.The dictator's purpose is to make people obey the party secretary, rather than obey the Pope。why Spaniards overthrew the party secretary?because they are more willing to obey the Pope.
No, no, they're not missing, they're DEAD. Check out the obits first next time. Ask the police - as soon as someone is declared dead, they are no longer missing.
I'm just stunned at how callously they passed over putting Sir Isaac Newton on this list. Why? Because he spent some time studying alchemy and the Bible? So what? Many scientists, including ones listed, did similar things. Did you forget all the other contributions Newton made to science? There's a reason he's constantly put at or near the top of most influential people (not just limited to scientists) in all of history. I think other commenters have spoken for me on the also disappointing lack of Leonardo da Vinci as well as several others who are superior to most of those on this list. I and others have been noticing more and more errors and oversights in these videos as of late, and that's really disappointing because I've long thought very highly of this channel.

Newton solved the 2 body problem in all it's glory. This achievement represents perhaps the single greatest leap in the history of Science because Newton had to conjure his tools- the Theory of Gravitation and the Mathematical machinery of Calculus from thin air. Principia gave all the principles needed for Apollo and the Moon landings. In Principia-Part 3, Newton established the motions of the planets around the Sun and determined the Planetary masses relative to that of the Earth. He estimated the mass and Density of the Earth to within 20%. He accounted for the flattening of the poles due to the Earth's spin and derived the rate of Precession of the Earth's axis due it's non-spherical shape. He established a theory of Tidal action, calculated the irregularity of the Moon's orbit due to the attraction of the Sun and analyzed the orbits of the Comets so that their returns could be predicted. Each of these feats would have marked Newton for Scientific immortality, that one man accomplished them all is beyond comprehension.

But yes I do agree that someone other than Darwin deserved the top spot. His "theory" although considered accurate by people with no religion, it is refuted by the millions that have one. Not saying that his theory was wrong or right I just don't see how something that can be perceived wrong by a lot of people and right by a lot of people as well deserves a spot on the top spot. Instead of putting someone that made enormous contributions to the world you put someone that had a theory that could be debated to be wrong. Not being biased but Tesla deserved that spot considering how much of our world would cease to exist without him. Then change Darwin with someone more important like Leonardo Da Vinci
Darwin's "theory" can only be perceived as wrong if you've been living under a fucking rock your entire life. With that said, Darwin's writings were hardly unique as others had written of the same phenomenon many times before. Einstein and da Vinci absolutely belonged on the list.

I understand that we live in an "english" world and Francis Bacon was undoubtedly one of the great minds that humanity has had, and no one can deny the importance of its work on the inductive method (from the philosophical point of view). But if we talk of science the "father of scientific method" it's only one.. Galileo Galilei.(universally recognized by any physicist, mathematician and scientist in general).
Just in the sciences missing here: Gauss? Euler? Da Vinci? Newton? Einstein? Gödel? Riemann? Dirac? Ramanujin? Poincaré? Wiles? Nash? Didn't any of these cross your mind?

Top list why arent There any islamic or Arabic figures. there where a lot of smart people if you make a quick search in different fields such as medicine science and mathematics from around 800 years ago and all of this list is like 300 years max pls reply
perhaps because after a time islam and the arab world rejected scientific inquiry so those peoples contributions were never taken full advantage of or developed by others.
true. also the Chinese. they were the most technologically advanced civilization on earth for around 5 thousand years up until the British industrial revolution. must be a good few hundred Chinese geniuses amoungst them in all that time
This list is more noteworthy for who's not on it: Einstein, Newton, Copernicus, Euler, Aristotle, Plato, Confucius, Voltaire, Epictetus, etc, etc. Making a top 10 list is kind of absurd. Random trivia: Darwin and Lincoln were born on the same day.
Leonardo Da Vinci should have been number one, hands down... and where is Albert Einstein ? :/ What about Srinivasa Ramanujan ?? .... Darwin should not even be on this list, in my opinion - his theory is still questionable.
What about Immanuel Kant? He just has created the entire contemporary ethics and moral principles and was the maximus expoent of the actual concept of society 300 years ago. Everything just thinking alone in his city in Germany that he never left.
I think you left off quite a few biggies... Einstein William James Sidis DaVinci Newton Gauss Mozart (for the musicians) Ben Franklin (my personal fav)
+John Joe Well, England got a twofer because Bacon=Shakespeare. Also, Darwin got evolutionary theory from Plato who got it from Pythagoras, who got it from the Indian Vedas. At least Isaac Newton wasn't on the list.
Bacon's and Shakespeare's image clusters don't match. As it is hard for some to think a man who was only "grade school" educated could be such a writer, maybe Shakespeare did exist.

WOLVES WWFC1887 Educated people don't believe Darwin came up with evolution. The theory of Evolution has been around for thousands of years. Darwin speculated on the mechanism of Evolution but that was incomplete at best.
I should be on this list. I've created genius work such as, "how to make a spaghetti monster" and "why North Korea is a great place to live". I think my work has revolutionized human thought! It's amazing!
1. Some actually claim that Machiavelli did not write "instructions" for a ruler, but a satirical peice on the current ruler. "It is better to be feared than to be loved." does sound slightly (and by slightly I mean terribly) ironic, doesn't it? 2. Glad you picked Leibniz over Newton. Newton was a great craftsman of mathematics, but did not achieve anything that would not be achieved by decent mathematicians over a few decades. Sure, he sped up the process, but his greatest talent was to make people think he was a genius. For Leibniz, I'm not sure about mentioning the monad theory, since it was not really original, (similar theories existed) and one of his least influential theories. Sure, it's quite well known, so mentioning it makes some sense. 3. Not picking Einstein over almost anyone on this list is just silly. His creative methods for thinking is something so extraordinairy, and it is doubtful that anyone could have come up with the same ideas at the time, or even later. The combination of creativity and logic is so rare, and catapulted physics in a way that we are still trying to understand. 4. Darwin a genius? Meh. He was ok, and very influential, but it does not take a genius to draw the conclusions he did from the facts that were at hand. It took a lot of bravery, and Darwin should be admired, but that does not make him a genius.
To be remembered for all the future generations of humankind is a sort of immortality in itself that only a few will ever achieve. being alive for a mere 80 years without making long lasting contributions is not even living, but only a mere derivative of a flash of existence.
Schrödinger? Ramanujan? WTF ,what about them. I can agree with most of the video, especially with Darwin being first,but those two were just unparalleled genius, Schrödinger was the one who laid the foundation for modern quantum physics, and Ramanujan arguably one of the greatest mathematician in history. These two deserved to be mentioned in this video
i'm smart you see, In 1608, a congregation of disgruntled English Protestants from the village of Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, left England and moved to Leyden, a town in Holland. These “Separatists” did not want to pledge allegiance to the Church of England, which they believed was nearly as corrupt and idolatrous as the Catholic Church it had replaced, any longer. (They were not the same as the Puritans, who had many of the same objections to the English church but wanted to reform it from within.) The Separatists hoped that in Holland, they would be free to worship as they liked Did You Know? The Separatists who founded the Plymouth Colony referred to themselves as “Saints,” not “Pilgrims.” The use of the word “Pilgrim” to describe this group did not become common until the colony’s bicentennial. In fact, the Separatists (they called themselves “Saints”) did find religious freedom in Holland, but they also found a secular life that was more difficult to navigate than they’d anticipated. For one thing, Dutch craft guilds excluded the migrants, so they were relegated to menial, low-paying jobs. Even worse was Holland’s easygoing, cosmopolitan atmosphere, which proved alarmingly seductive to some of the Saints’ children. (These young people were “drawn away,” Separatist leader William Bradford wrote, “by evill [sic] example into extravagance and dangerous courses.”) For the strict, devout Separatists, this was the last straw. They decided to move again, this time to a place without government interference or worldly distraction: the “New World” across the Atlantic Ocean. THE MAYFLOWER First, the Separatists returned to London to get organized. A prominent merchant agreed to advance the money for their journey. The Virginia Company gave them permission to establish a settlement, or “plantation,” on the East Coast between 38 and 41 degrees north latitude (roughly between the Chesapeake Bay and the mouth of the Hudson River). And the King of England gave them permission to leave the Church of England, “provided they carried themselves peaceably.” In August 1620, a group of about 40 Saints joined a much larger group of (comparatively) secular colonists-“Strangers,” to the Saints-and set sail from England on two merchant ships: the Mayflower and the Speedwell. The Speedwell began to leak almost immediately, however, and the ships headed back to port. The travelers squeezed themselves and their belongings onto the Mayflower and set sail once again. Because of the delay caused by the leaky Speedwell, the Mayflower had to cross the Atlantic at the height of storm season. As a result, the journey was horribly unpleasant. Many of the passengers were so seasick they could scarcely get up, and the waves were so rough that one “Stranger” was swept overboard and drowned. (It was “the just hand of God upon him,” Bradford wrote later, for the young sailor had been “a proud and very profane yonge man.”) THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT After two miserable months at sea, the ship finally reached the New World. There, the Mayflower’s passengers found an abandoned Indian village and not much else. They also found that they were in the wrong place: Cape Cod was located at 42 degrees north latitude, well north of the Virginia Company’s territory. Technically, the Mayflower colonists had no right to be there at all. In order to establish themselves as a legitimate colony (“Plymouth,” named after the English port from which they had departed) under these dubious circumstances, 41 of the Saints and Strangers drafted and signed a document they called the Mayflower Compact. This Compact promised to create a “civil Body Politick” governed by elected officials and “just and equal laws.” It also swore allegiance to the English king. PLYMOUTH COLONY AND THE FIRST THANKSGIVING The colonists spent the first winter, which only 53 passengers and half the crew survived, living onboard the Mayflower. (The Mayflower sailed back to England in April 1621.) Once they moved ashore, the colonists faced even more challenges. During their first winter in America, more than half of the Plymouth colonists died from malnutrition, disease and exposure to the harsh New England weather. In fact, without the help of the area’s native people, it is likely that none of the colonists would have survived. An English-speaking Pawtuxet named Samoset helped the colonists form an alliance with the local Wampanoags, who taught them how to hunt local animals, gather shellfish and grow corn, beans and squash. At the end of the next summer, the Plymouth colonists celebrated their first successful harvest with a three-day festival of thanksgiving. We still commemorate this feast today. Eventually, the Plymouth colonists were absorbed into the Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony. Still, the Mayflower Saints and their descendants remained convinced that they alone had been specially chosen by God to act as a beacon for Christians around the world. “As one small candle may light a thousand,” Bradford wrote, “so the light here kindled hath shone to many, yea in some sort to our whole nation.”

The physical process of evolution is a scientifically factually process testable in dog , pigeon and horse breeding today and even at the smallest molecular level with germs and microbial lifeforms . Evolution is why you are here today, why we can find fossils of our ancestors and find genetic code in our bones, blood and throughout our still evolving bodies.
you do realise that there is a difference for my theory that someone just write on a piece of paper and a scientific theory that has been proven many times by substantial amount of evidence so you see a theory and a scientific theory is not the same thing evolution is a scientific theory
Alan Turing did NOT kill himself he died of cyanide poisoning in an apple and if you are going to credit someone of being one of the smartest ppl in the world make sure you know their life story
Actually he was experimenting with cyanide soooo he could have really had left over cyanide on his hands or around the apple so in my theory maybe he accidentally died bc of the cyanide he was experimenting with
Some of these I agree with but others like Darwin I think don't deserve their spots on this list. Evolution has been proven false and there is no evidence of any missing links up to this day. Niccolo Machiavelli (I hope I wrote that right) I think was generally correct but dishonourable so I personally don't like him but his statement about "it is better to be feared than loved" is true as history demonstrates. Tesla definitely deserved a spot on this list, in my opinion. Shakespeare was a really smart individual as well
The description is specific as to what the list is intended to represent: "These are the 10 minds that have revolutionized human thought as we know it." I think the presenters here "Top Lists" that provided the title, are not the same ones that produced the item per se, and thus the difference that creates the confusion as to actual purpose.
At first i thought this is just another mediocre list, but when i saw the #1 pick, i realized this is a joke on the viewers! Well played, Top Lists! Literally everyone on that list was smarter than Darwin.
Leibniz: Invents calculus. (on the list)
Newton: Invents calculus, laws of motion, universal law of gravitation, and theory of color. (not on the list)

That's a wide spread myth , Einstein never told anything about tesla .
Yes your list is incomplete for sure. You failed to mention Newton in any real depth, as well as the great sin of failing to mention ( or even know of ) Goethe. I Love how you mentioned Panini and Neumann however..... most people will never know of these men. Where in the hell is Leonardo Da Vinci ????
Where is Albert Einstein?
Outside of the list lol
What's the music in the background? I recognize it from somewhere but can't figure out wherefrom...
The number one slot goes to a guy who is known for a singular theory(which he denounced) that has languished without any significant advances for generations. Evolutionary theory as it pertains to humanity is no clearer today than it was 200 years ago.
I could literally think of 50 people more deserving of the top spot.
If evolution isn't clear to you then you're just thick. Don't worry about it.
Nautilus1972 Or
You're just another moron who believes what you're told.
Because I'm positive you don't know shit about evolution outside what you were told to believe.
+Logical Lunatic so you believe evolution is bullshit then?

Ramanujan?
I understand that we live in an "english" world and Francis Bacon was undoubtedly one of the great minds that humanity has had, and no one can deny the importance of its work on the inductive method (from the philosophical point of view).
But if we talk of science the "father of scientific method" it's only one.. Galileo Galilei.(universally recognized by any physicist, mathematician and scientist in general).
Just in the sciences missing here: Gauss? Euler? Da Vinci? Newton? Einstein? Gödel? Riemann? Dirac? Ramanujin? Poincaré? Wiles? Nash? Didn't any of these cross your mind?
Why haven't you written about Aryabhatta? No mathematical philosophy and cosmology is complete without him.
Its very shameful if you don't know about him.

wow i love how this video is very well edited and organized, great job guys keep it up!
Top list why arent There any islamic or Arabic figures. there where a lot of smart people if you make a quick search in different fields such as medicine science and mathematics from around 800 years ago and all of this list is like 300 years max pls reply
Good ol western world culture giving itself a back on the back...again.
The very first guy was German.
perhaps because after a time islam and the arab world rejected scientific inquiry so those peoples contributions were never taken full advantage of or developed by others.
Ok I know the Arabic world is years behind but still he should have given some credit. 😘
true. also the Chinese. they were the most technologically advanced civilization on earth for around 5 thousand years up until the British industrial revolution. must be a good few hundred Chinese geniuses amoungst them in all that time
what's the editing software name you used in this video ?
Anyone else notice the time on the vid is 9 11
9:10 now
what is your point?
That's because the video is just shorter than 9:12 and just longer than 9:10.
basilbrushnz it's actually Setamber 11
Half-Life 3 confirmed!!
This list is more noteworthy for who's not on it: Einstein, Newton, Copernicus, Euler, Aristotle, Plato, Confucius, Voltaire, Epictetus, etc, etc. Making a top 10 list is kind of absurd.
Random trivia: Darwin and Lincoln were born on the same day.
Leonardo Da Vinci should have been number one, hands down... and where is Albert Einstein ? :/ What about Srinivasa Ramanujan ?? .... Darwin should not even be on this list, in my opinion - his theory is still questionable.
No, Tesla should be #1. And evolution is not a theory, it's a fact. Bacteria have been observed evolving in the lab.
John Prinsloo einstein was over rated. The Unibomber was smarter than Einstein
Albert Einstein and Ramanujan are the smartest of all
I detect a bias in the names selected. Maybe the mixing of disciplines is not a good idea.
Very stupid list. Darwin #1? LOL
Yes
How’s it stupid? He’s probably the smartest man to ever live if not within the top five.

This is anglo saxon biased bs... Shakespeare... Really???
+John Joe Well, England got a twofer because Bacon=Shakespeare.
Also, Darwin got evolutionary theory from Plato who got it from Pythagoras, who got it from the Indian Vedas.
At least Isaac Newton wasn't on the list.
+johnmacrae2006 ironically Newton should be there.
Bacon's and Shakespeare's image clusters don't match. As it is hard for some to think a man who was only "grade school" educated could be such a writer, maybe Shakespeare did exist.
Take darwin out entirely as the inventor of a failed 19th century fairy tale, and put Einstein in his place. Who puts these lists together??
I would really like to see a top 10 greatest generals of all times, possibly even more than 10, because they're really too many, and 10 are really not enough, you would miss a lot of them

excuse me, what is the contribution of Darwin? hahaha.......
you know? I prefer Tesla
Am Klo Yes, but he should not be on the bottom position
This was NOT a top 10.
excuse me, the discovery of evolution reformed biology completely......
WOLVES WWFC1887 Educated people don't believe Darwin came up with evolution. The theory of Evolution has been around for thousands of years. Darwin speculated on the mechanism of Evolution but that was incomplete at best.
You forgot Donald trump
haha funny joke
We have only just begun to understand Trump's genius. An updated list will be made a few decades from now naming Trump as number one.
Clinton I hope you're joking

We just assume that hes no. 1.
WHY IS WILLIAM JAMES SIDIS NOT ON THIS LIST
I should be on this list. I've created genius work such as, "how to make a spaghetti monster" and "why North Korea is a great place to live". I think my work has revolutionized human thought! It's amazing!
What is this background music? I could use this while reading
very accurate selection ... with this in mind, everyone else is somehow a derivative (including Riemann, Boltzmann and Einstein) and I am not biased
Isaac Newton should have been in the list. That is my only problem
Newton 0:47
Yes he is mentioned but not listed
I often wonder how many great minds we have never heard of simply because of lost records or the absence of info on them
+Arash Ghasemi
Darwin derived from Plato. Evolutionary theory was not new, it just hadn't penetrated Christian European academia until Darwin.
1. Some actually claim that Machiavelli did not write "instructions" for a ruler, but a satirical peice on the current ruler.
"It is better to be feared than to be loved." does sound slightly (and by slightly I mean terribly) ironic, doesn't it?
2. Glad you picked Leibniz over Newton. Newton was a great craftsman of mathematics, but did not achieve anything that would not be achieved by decent mathematicians over a few decades. Sure, he sped up the process, but his greatest talent was to make people think he was a genius. For Leibniz, I'm not sure about mentioning the monad theory, since it was not really original, (similar theories existed) and one of his least influential theories. Sure, it's quite well known, so mentioning it makes some sense.
3. Not picking Einstein over almost anyone on this list is just silly. His creative methods for thinking is something so extraordinairy, and it is doubtful that anyone could have come up with the same ideas at the time, or even later. The combination of creativity and logic is so rare, and catapulted physics in a way that we are still trying to understand.
4. Darwin a genius? Meh. He was ok, and very influential, but it does not take a genius to draw the conclusions he did from the facts that were at hand. It took a lot of bravery, and Darwin should be admired, but that does not make him a genius.
I'm smarter then most of the guys...because i'm still alive and they aren't
you are so funny
After reading that, I feel sorry for you.
+WubzPlays youre fun arent you
I'm usually fun when I'm not annoyed as fuck about having to do a project on Ramadan.
To be remembered for all the future generations of humankind is a sort of immortality in itself that only a few will ever achieve. being alive for a mere 80 years without making long lasting contributions is not even living, but only a mere derivative of a flash of existence.
Schrödinger? Ramanujan? WTF ,what about them. I can agree with most of the video, especially with Darwin being first,but those two were just unparalleled genius, Schrödinger was the one who laid the foundation for modern quantum physics, and Ramanujan arguably one of the greatest mathematician in history. These two deserved to be mentioned in this video
Einstein Einstein Einstein Einstein
There needs to be a part 2 of this particular list...
Where is _____ on this list !!
i'm smart you see, In 1608, a congregation of disgruntled English Protestants from the village of Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, left England and moved to Leyden, a town in Holland. These “Separatists” did not want to pledge allegiance to the Church of England, which they believed was nearly as corrupt and idolatrous as the Catholic Church it had replaced, any longer. (They were not the same as the Puritans, who had many of the same objections to the English church but wanted to reform it from within.) The Separatists hoped that in Holland, they would be free to worship as they liked
Did You Know?
The Separatists who founded the Plymouth Colony referred to themselves as “Saints,” not “Pilgrims.” The use of the word “Pilgrim” to describe this group did not become common until the colony’s bicentennial.
In fact, the Separatists (they called themselves “Saints”) did find religious freedom in Holland, but they also found a secular life that was more difficult to navigate than they’d anticipated. For one thing, Dutch craft guilds excluded the migrants, so they were relegated to menial, low-paying jobs. Even worse was Holland’s easygoing, cosmopolitan atmosphere, which proved alarmingly seductive to some of the Saints’ children. (These young people were “drawn away,” Separatist leader William Bradford wrote, “by evill [sic] example into extravagance and dangerous courses.”) For the strict, devout Separatists, this was the last straw. They decided to move again, this time to a place without government interference or worldly distraction: the “New World” across the Atlantic Ocean.
THE MAYFLOWER
First, the Separatists returned to London to get organized. A prominent merchant agreed to advance the money for their journey. The Virginia Company gave them permission to establish a settlement, or “plantation,” on the East Coast between 38 and 41 degrees north latitude (roughly between the Chesapeake Bay and the mouth of the Hudson River). And the King of England gave them permission to leave the Church of England, “provided they carried themselves peaceably.”
In August 1620, a group of about 40 Saints joined a much larger group of (comparatively) secular colonists-“Strangers,” to the Saints-and set sail from England on two merchant ships: the Mayflower and the Speedwell. The Speedwell began to leak almost immediately, however, and the ships headed back to port. The travelers squeezed themselves and their belongings onto the Mayflower and set sail once again.
Because of the delay caused by the leaky Speedwell, the Mayflower had to cross the Atlantic at the height of storm season. As a result, the journey was horribly unpleasant. Many of the passengers were so seasick they could scarcely get up, and the waves were so rough that one “Stranger” was swept overboard and drowned. (It was “the just hand of God upon him,” Bradford wrote later, for the young sailor had been “a proud and very profane yonge man.”)
THE MAYFLOWER COMPACT
After two miserable months at sea, the ship finally reached the New World. There, the Mayflower’s passengers found an abandoned Indian village and not much else. They also found that they were in the wrong place: Cape Cod was located at 42 degrees north latitude, well north of the Virginia Company’s territory. Technically, the Mayflower colonists had no right to be there at all. In order to establish themselves as a legitimate colony (“Plymouth,” named after the English port from which they had departed) under these dubious circumstances, 41 of the Saints and Strangers drafted and signed a document they called the Mayflower Compact. This Compact promised to create a “civil Body Politick” governed by elected officials and “just and equal laws.” It also swore allegiance to the English king.
PLYMOUTH COLONY AND THE FIRST THANKSGIVING
The colonists spent the first winter, which only 53 passengers and half the crew survived, living onboard the Mayflower. (The Mayflower sailed back to England in April 1621.) Once they moved ashore, the colonists faced even more challenges. During their first winter in America, more than half of the Plymouth colonists died from malnutrition, disease and exposure to the harsh New England weather. In fact, without the help of the area’s native people, it is likely that none of the colonists would have survived. An English-speaking Pawtuxet named Samoset helped the colonists form an alliance with the local Wampanoags, who taught them how to hunt local animals, gather shellfish and grow corn, beans and squash. At the end of the next summer, the Plymouth colonists celebrated their first successful harvest with a three-day festival of thanksgiving. We still commemorate this feast today.
Eventually, the Plymouth colonists were absorbed into the Puritan Massachusetts Bay Colony. Still, the Mayflower Saints and their descendants remained convinced that they alone had been specially chosen by God to act as a beacon for Christians around the world. “As one small candle may light a thousand,” Bradford wrote, “so the light here kindled hath shone to many, yea in some sort to our whole nation.”

Wtf happened to Albert Einstein? Are you kidding me? you would put Charles Darwin over him?
+odean14 I was about to comment that, i mean what gives?!
+Hendrick Dias
Einstein never was intelligent. He can't even read. You cal that a genius?
+Hendrick Dias
His brilliance was only applied when he used numbers as letters, helped make nulcear bombs, and the fucking Theory of Relativity.
He got suspended from schools MULTIPLE times. Now, do you still believe this 'genius' you call?

Not trying to hate, though, I still admire Albert Einstein.

Nikola Tesla is mentioned in the list (#4)
Nikola Tesla also made the first computer circuit.

+Omkar Chandra James Woods has a higher IQ than Einstein!!! Maybe Woods and S.Stone should have directed the specialist, lol!!!
Leonardo Da Vinci is not mentioned in the list.
This was great until #1 even if Evolution is true (evolution is still a theory) Darwin did not impact society as much as tesla.
You are another one of those people who do not understand the meaning of the word 'theory' in a scientific contest.
The physical process of evolution is a scientifically factually process testable in dog , pigeon and horse breeding today and even at the smallest molecular level with germs and microbial lifeforms .
Evolution is why you are here today, why we can find fossils of our ancestors and find genetic code in our bones, blood and throughout our still evolving bodies.
you do realise that there is a difference for my theory that someone just write on a piece of paper and a scientific theory that has been proven many times by substantial amount of evidence so you see a theory and a scientific theory is not the same thing evolution is a scientific theory
Alan Turing did NOT kill himself he died of cyanide poisoning in an apple and if you are going to credit someone of being one of the smartest ppl in the world make sure you know their life story
He put the cyanide in the apple
Actually he was experimenting with cyanide soooo he could have really had left over cyanide on his hands or around the apple so in my theory maybe he accidentally died bc of the cyanide he was experimenting with
Some of these I agree with but others like Darwin I think don't deserve their spots on this list. Evolution has been proven false and there is no evidence of any missing links up to this day. Niccolo Machiavelli (I hope I wrote that right) I think was generally correct but dishonourable so I personally don't like him but his statement about "it is better to be feared than loved" is true as history demonstrates. Tesla definitely deserved a spot on this list, in my opinion. Shakespeare was a really smart individual as well
Evolution is real lmao
+Clorox Bleach lol this guy, hes talking crazy
Evolution not true? Get your hand off your PC, and everything that people evolved to, to create and transform. You don't deserve them.
Look up "Irreducible complexity" That is my argument against evolution.
Citing a creationist term as evidence hardly aids your cause buddy. I take it you're religious?
Agree with you
Karl Marx.
I've heard it said that Darwin never believed in macro evolution; he just wrote about the micro evolution he observed.
The description is specific as to what the list is intended to represent:
"These are the 10 minds that
have revolutionized human
thought as we know it."
I think the presenters here "Top Lists" that provided the title, are not the
same ones that produced the item per se, and thus the difference that
creates the confusion as to actual purpose.
I should be on this list, I invented the Buttscratcher 5000.
Newton's alchemy was essentially modern metallurgy. He was also far more of a genius than anyone else who ever lived, in my opinion.
Yes, alchemy and chemistry are closely related....
Newton, Einstein???
Where is my Mama on the list: she created miracle on Christmas Thanksgiving
At first i thought this is just another mediocre list, but when i saw the #1 pick, i realized this is a joke on the viewers! Well played, Top Lists! Literally everyone on that list was smarter than Darwin.
'It is better to be feared than loved is the popular quote'; but it is more probable Machiavelli said, 'It is safer to be feared than loved'.
