How did Nikola Tesla gain psychic ability?

One account I heard was he got zapped and had near death experience and had a vision of past/present/future.

Marc Seifer in an interview said that I think. Seeking intelligent and serious responses. Idiotic responses would be frowned upon. Those who act like clown shall be treated as such.

Also prefer reliable references.

Also I have heard it was in the papers in the days of Tesla that he had psychic ability though he denied it. Anyone seen such exempts? Links?

Please provide some evidence he had "psychic" ability.

I could see Tesla coming up with some kind of mind reading device, perhaps implanting it in his own skull so he could hear others thoughts. Of course, i like the idea of Tesla working with the USSR in Red Alert so alternate historical timelines will always entertain me.

I would like the alternative history of Tesla frying his ass**** enemies like Morgan and Edison and taking over the world. lol. The world didn;t even know jack about ionospheric science when he was looking into. And now we have allegation that HAARP is manipulating the weather and it may all traces back to the work of Tesla.

What YouTube video or fringe website gave you the ridiculous notion that Tesla was psychic? Critical thinking: Try it.

Stick your finger in a light socket. Good old Tesla AC!
It could happen.

There are things that defy scientific explanation. Critical thinking can't solve all mysteries. Try it.

Oh yeah? Name one.

None of the responses seem to know anything so far. I have cross-reference two stories. Tesla warned one friend not to board the "Titanic" ,having foresaw disaster. The friend didn;t listen and perished. The other friend listened when Tesla warned him not to board a train and it turned out everyone died in a train crash.

Assuming the stories are true, how the heck did he knew? You telling me that's not a good mystery. This guy's whole freaking life is a mystery man! Get with the program!

Let me know if someone has something of merit worth considering.

Why assume that?

This guy's whole freaking life is a mystery man!

Not really.

I actually googled this question, at least one site placed the female orgasm above Dark Matter and Cold Fusion. I am not sure how i feel about that.

I asked once already, and you ignored it, so I'll ask again: What are your sources for his supposed psychic ability?

lmao! why are you even on a mystery/top secret forum? to poke hole at people's quesiton about mysteries of existence, wait no, the universe.

seems to me you implying that there are no mysteries science cannot explain. if that is your belief, i won;t argue. i would leave it as such.

Dude, for #s sake. Anyone can google, so chill a bit.


Tesla was a psychic is easy to google isnt it

He would suffer blinding flashes of light that obscured his vision, leading him to have visions of another kind which he often found disturbing. He developed the ability to repress this by the time he reached his teenage years – apart from when he was stressed, then the visions and the blinding flashes that accompanied them could not be stopped. He described these visions as imaginings of objects that did not yet exist.

Strange Illness
Not long after graduating from high school Tesla contracted cholera and came close to death. It took a number of years but he appeared to make a full recovery. However he developed something else, an illness that could not really be explained by the medical professionals. Tesla had always been known for the incredible accuracy of his physical senses, but something it seemed, had sent them into overdrive. He was overwhelmed with sensory information. Again he learned how to exercise control over the visions that came now more frequently. Some may say he was hallucinating, yet whatever they were, these episodes provided Tesla with an insight into the unknown which would be the foundation for his inventions that were to come.

Just going to say I seen enough personalities to know some people have really big egos. Someone that is legendary and has done great things that earn admiration of society, some people comes along and scoff down at as insignificant and act like they can do better. I'm not here to argue with such type of personalities.

I don't see any posts which disparage the accomplishments of Nikola Tesla.
Can you point one out?

He was a very good engineer. You won't find many who disagree. However, the other crap, the mythology, that's another matter.

the account with the blinding light and 3d vision of invention in his head, that not really psychic...more like the way his mind see invention ideas.
