- In the 1870's electricity was cutting edge technology and the challenge was on to build on the success of the Telegraph and carry the human voice. Like many other budding young inventors Bell and his assistant Watson picked up the gauntlet and devised the Liquid Telephone.

The real telephone inventor is Antonio Meucci but because he didn't have the money to obtain a patent they didn't sign the invention to his name, Alexander graham Bell's was rich and he stole the invention idea and registered it for himself.
@Rosida Andriyana the fact that Meucci couldn't speak English well and relied heavily on translators made navigating the business prospects and patent claims a challenge to say the least. It also didn't help that his wife kept selling his inventions either though he continued to develop better ideas anyways. He spent nearly all his money due to research, his wife's medical issues and a few other reasons. He sent a model and technical details to the Western Union telegraph company but failed to win a meeting with executives. When he asked for his materials to be returned, in 1874, he was told they had been lost which was mentioned in the video. Two years later Bell, who shared a laboratory with Meucci, filed a patent for a telephone, became a celebrity and made a lucrative deal with Western Union. After one failed law suit due to lack of evidence Meucci died at aged 82 shortly after he started an appeal. They found a rudimentary structures in his home from when he set up a basic form of communications for his wife who could not move around very well. Graham Bell went in the history books as the inventor however 113 years later the US government released a letter stating Meucci did indeed invent the telephone rather than Graham Bell. Interesting history and sadly lots of it gets pushed to the way side when it comes to teaching history. If they had that in history while growing up I am sure I would have remembered it better.
@@wmsi_t_k7086 thank you for sharing this great information! Who would’ve known
Not the first time a white man took credit for someone else's work
Bell tinkered with his liquid phone making incremental changes until he saw someone elses better design and stole that one.

While attempting to make a miniature version of his phone he inadvertently invented the BabyBel.
he basically invented a microphone...
Not first, but second is fine.
his stolen telephone
History is littered with these stories. With the internet transparency not secrecy should be how patenting is done.
🤔
Legend says he had a iPhone
This invention also fundamental to the development of Microphone technology.
Salut
here for the physics lab🫵
If you are going to do educational video's get your fact right in the first place please.

Antonio Meucci telephone
that still does not explain how human voice can be changed into electrical signals and back into voice.
Similar to how a recording needle on vinyl cut vibrations into the record, which could be replicated with a receiving needle on a player. Vibrations on the electromagnetic diaphragm react similarly but electronically instead.
that is so cool
Ok, Bell didnt invent the phone. He stole the idea!
If you learn enough history, inventions are almost always stolen, especially in the Victorian era. It’s just a normalised thing to do. Is it morally right? Maybe not, but that’s just how it is.
0:19 our communication networks today only transmit dots and dashes, 0s and 1s. chill bud. analog on wired or wireless communications are long gone because they waste bandwidth.
Why do we have feelings?
Speak for yourself, I'm dead inside.
@@veemacks7255 Speak for yourself, I do not exist.
Because of the neuro chemicals I think
Yes, telegraph took the transmission of binary data as far as it could possibly go. Yeah, right.
I know, the first idea was to create a harmonic telegraph, several messages on the same line, different frequency. Even though Bell ( and Gray ) began that way, they saw better opportunities.
Meucci did it first...
will james may see my comment?
No
Hopefully Jeremy won’t yell at him lol
nice you didn't mention Elisha Grey . bell bribed a patent agent to look at grey's design.. bell received the patent the old fashion american way in business : he stole it. bell spent the rest of his time defending " his " patent for the rest of his life. also the first phones use Earth-Ground as a return so it sounded like you were talking through a tube. Vail was credited with the idea of a central office. i forget who came up with the idea of using a pair of wires to connect but that was the basis of the modern phone line. i could go on but i'm bored now, i spent 36 years with PTT/PacTel/SBC/and ATT
allegedly
He stole his "invention" from his assistant
Nearly all inventions and even great theories are a matter of many minds and people doing work. But very often one person at the end of that process will end up getting the glory as they unify the work of many men. If you complain about this then complain about Einstein, the claim that the internet was invented by CERN, Maxwells equations, and everything else that has a persons name attached.
Fact is history could have played out in so many different ways. Many different people could have their names attached to so many things. But all these guys got there by standing on the shoulders of so many other people
What the heck is that screen in the background? xD Is it even real? o.o
I'm guessing this is filmed in the BT control centre.
does this dude have any teeth?
#Proudtobewhite
I'm pretty sure it was the carbon granule microphone that was the mainstay of telephony for the next 100 years, rather than the moving armature microphone arrangement described in this video. Moving armature devices were more common in receivers.
Now all people aspire is make a rubbish apps like Elon Musk.. Gone are the days of real exciting inventions... I believe we'll go through these cycles of inventions --> Consumption --> back to inventions..
this comment section is wild
OOFER
What information can we varrifiy first hand?
If we accept what we hear, read, without varifing it for ourselves, we accept it on faith.
It may be true, and it may not be. But the faith part of what we believe to be true, (or not true) makes the un varified knowledge a relgion.
And that transcends all of life.
Dang, you are so right!
Can you say more about this?
Hello UK. America here. Today is July 4th- which means it's our countrie's birthday. For our gift, please be sending an autographed Greg Foot poster. Thank you.
it isnt actually your countries birthday. it celebrates you being free from the best empire ever: the british empire.
On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress, meeting in Philadelphia, declared the independence of "the United States of America" in the Declaration of Independence.July 4 is celebrated as the nation's birthday.
In 1776, the Second Continental Congress declared that there was a new, independent nation, the United States of America, not just a collection of disparate colonies.
I'll forgive you, because you appear to be about 12 years old. However, You should learn your American history. Now please excuse me while I enjoy my freedom and await our Greg Foot poster.
You spelled "country's" incorrectly.
i very rarely down vote a video, but while the technical information in this video was pretty decent if not particularly good, the background information and presentation was so full of crappy information and even half truths that the video as whole belongs in a garbage can.
