How Electricity Was discovered - Chapter 1: The Origins of Electricity

Journey with us through the awe-inspiring history of electricity, a force both terrifying and mesmerizing. From ancient myths to groundbreaking discoveries, we explore the millennia-long quest to unlock electricity's secrets. Discover how early observations, from Greek amber experiments to Egyptian electric fish, sparked curiosity and systematic study. Learn about Thales of Miletus, who advanced electrical understanding, and William Gilbert, who coined 'electricus' and differentiated it from magnetism. Witness the revolution brought by the Leyden jar, the first capacitor, and its monumental impact. Join us in celebrating the pioneers whose fascination with electricity illuminated our path to modern technological marvels. #ElectricityHistory #ScienceExploration #LeydenJar #ElectricityPioneers

A well done video. But, the title "How Electricity was Invented" makes it sound like someone made the stuff. "Discovering Electricity" or the "The History of Electricity" would be more accurate I think.

It was invented. Just not by any means we know.
