Tesla is one of my heroes. The guy invented a lot of things that we take for granted - the AC single and polyphase motor, the system of power generation, transmission and distribution that the world uses today, fluorescent light, radio (demonstrated a much more complex version several years before Marconi's three dots). He played around with and took X-Ray images before Roentgen's paper (complained about the radiation burns too). The number of products this guy invented that we still use today boggles the mind.
This cartoon only begins to sum it up:
