Hedy Lamarr was called the "most beautiful woman in the world" in her day. But what most don't know is that she had the brains to match her beauty. Lee Cowan reports.
I knew Hedy Lamarr when I lived above her at the Sandy Cove Condominiums in Altamonte Springs she used to invite me down into her apartment on many occasions just when my daughter was just a little girl she got a kick out of her and as I walked into her apartment she would show me all these pictures that she had of like Clark Gable and many other movie stars it was a pleasure to speak with her she was so kind and endearing and warm but when the story came out about the shoplifting of that she was not the one that did the shoplifting she didn't do anything wrong at least she thought she didn't she had explained to me that she had gone into a CVS store and her assistant was with her and there were things that she needed so she had her assistant put them in her pocket and as Hattie had walked out of the store they grabbed headache but not her assistant and storage Teddy with shoplifting and that was not true the Hedy that I knew was a beautiful woman she was very talkative about her career and hurting her life and what she did from when she was just a young girl to present and even in her last days I grew to love this woman so much and miss her very dearly and I wish her well in heaven and I wish the best for her and hope that she is healthy and happy and beloved
The true tragedy really is--she was not taken seriously as a scientist and engineer. Her beauty really is a sidebar. I hope she found the peace. God be with her.
this is making me cry. It makes me angry and so sad. Hedy was such a smart and fantastic women.. I heard that the reason why she was so fixated on developing such a thing, was to get her mother safely to the US during the times of the war. She will never be forgotten..
Society couldn't tollerate a great woman who was both smarter and more beautiful than everyone else. She hid her Tesla like mind from the world because she was awear of this fact.
What everyone seems to be missing is......who she was as a person. This video acknowledges her intelligence, and Hollywood acknowledged her beauty, but no one received her personhood- very sad. She was a total sweetie.
Read the book, "Beautiful" by Stephen Michael Searer, St. Martin's Press 2010. It's a biography of Hedy Lamarrs life. Well researched and footnoted, it provides unique insights to whom she was as a person. An excellent read and highly recommended.
I answered an ad for a roommate on Hollywood Beach California, many years ago.The sub lessors name was Lloyd Lamar. There were pictures of Hedy Lamar all over the residence. Apparently my new roommate was the grandson of the Ms Lamar. I wish I could have met her, but even more I wish Lioyd possessed the sweetness his grandmother seemed to have. He was a the roommate from hell. We (there was another roommate as well) were not allowed to access the living room, and were restricted to our bedrooms and the kitchen. but God help you if you borrowed Lloyd's groceries. We figured out he was paying the rent on the place with our money so he did not have to pay at all. Nice work if you can get it. So I was not really in the mood to follow the restrictive rules and decided to have one of lloyds beers, which I would replace in the near future. That resulted in the first and only time someone pointed a gun at me. I called the police but they did nothing except suggest I move if I was not happy. Wonder why they sided with Lloyd??
What an intelligent woman Hedy Lamarr is!!!! Awesome! I salute you Ma'am!! Your legacy lives on in our modern times!!! Thank you for your genius!!!

She also worked with Howard Hughes to come up with a design for faster aircraft, she looked to birds and fish for inspiration, take a look at a B1 bomber straight on at it's shape, looks like the breast/wing joint if an eagle and if you watch the aircraft go thru a flight control surface check the rear flight surfaces move like a bird's tale. The inspiration was really achieved thru the advancement of technology
Indeed it was.... her mind beautiful complex and brilliant. I agree and further I never knew until today Jan 30th 2020, the depths and dimensions which encompasses this magnificent screen siren. Ms. Lamarr thank you, and blessings to her and her family. Thanks for the upload.
Hedy and George Antheil's patent has been cited in 66 other patents as a basis for those companies patents. Her father taught her much about how things worked. At 5 she took apart and put back together her music box which still plays today. She smashed a light bulb to see what was in it. She was bright at chemistry in school. Inventing was her hobby early that her father encouraged. They used to work on and take apart radios. She referenced a Philco radio consumer remote control that was around since 1939 in the notes for the patent. You have all the electronic groups who said her idea was the basis for how wi-fi, cdma, and the Milstar systems work. The Electronic Frontier Foundation, Lockheed, and the Navy gave Hedy awards for the system. Antheil said it was her idea and he basically wrote it down contributing his player piano knowledge used to switch and synchronize the frequencies for the system. Professor Samuel Mackeown of Cal Tech worked on it and the Inventors Council in Washington. Hedy and George started work on it in 1940 ending with the patent in 1942. Lyon and Lyon in LA got the patent in order. Hedy and George worked on more including a proximity bomb.
He n the late 1960s and 1970s, this woman was still a knock out! Yes, she had a facelift, but man her shape, her skin, her hair, she was a fashion doll! And she was a genius! She came to live in NY. That's where she lived until she passed away. Sad, that she was broke when she died.
Hedy Lamarr died where she lived her last years, in Casselbery, Florida. She had a million or two left in the bank that was left to her son and daughter.
I have seen a few of her movies and to me she was a fairly decent actress, but her mind seemed to far outweigh any beauty that she happened to be. The world is full of beautiful women but the mind is what I would want from a woman mostly. To be able to sit and exchange different views about every subject under the sun would be like being in heaven to me. I have known a few beautiful women, but very few brilliant minds. I could fall deeply in love with a woman like Hedy Lamarr mostly because when I looked into her eyes I would see how wonderful and beautiful her mind was, and fall in love even deeper because of it. A pretty face is nice but a brilliant mind is priceless to me. I hope Hedy Lamarr's mind comes back in the next life and hopefully I will be able to sit and talk with her then. I love you for your mind Hedy Lamarr.
The startling revalation of a h'wood movie queen also being a genius inventor intrigues women and wows men. Hedys story really becoming more well known.
She will be more well known, as Johnny Depp has written a song about her, and has recorded it with Jeff Beck, the Album called 18 is out now, and the song Hedy Lamar is on it. it's a brilliant song and tribute to a brilliant and beautiful woman.
She's really beautyful! And a genius but that seems strange to me it's that i didn't found any information about her studies in the internet. She never went to the university. Wikipedia says that her husband use to talk with her about technology but to talk about science and to know is very different. She's anyway very sweet.
A beautiful mind that was never fully appreciated because society chose to instead recognize only her great physical beauty. How unfortunate that one can’t be seen as being able to have both.
I still think about this beautiful, smart woman ! I watched old black and white movies and her closeups were always filtered with a frosty filter! I’ve never been attracted to blondes Auburn or silver haired women! I was raised in south LA , Cajun women and they were tanned black haired women with eyes the color the sky or green pastures!
It's not like the plastic surgery that Hedy Lamarr had made her look like a monster, she just wasn't able ti regain that youthful brsuty she once possessed. Most women would be lucky to look as Hedy loked even with Botched Plastic Surgery.
Konstruktivist Neo please stop you have so much hate in you why? Why do you do this? Where do you live? How old are you? Thank you my friend please respond. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
I’m sure her parents would have been very happy to have given her that University engineering education, if it had been possible for them to send her to University, financially, and because of Antisemitism all thru the 20th Century, but very few women anywhere were getting Engineering degrees, anyhow.
Hedy Lamar looks very similar to Sarah Brightman today and Elizabeth Taylor. These women have intelligence with which they could invent ! Hollywood in the meantime focused only on the exterior beauty of a person's face. I guess now women are more involved with scientific pursuits and applied engineering.
Benjamin Chung Sarah Brightman no way no way. Hedy Lamarr was in a class all by herself never to be repeated the most beautiful woman in the world at her time just like Elizabeth Taylor at her time. When I met my wife at the age of 22 she looked like Hedy Lamarr. We have been married for 44 years still a very beautiful lady my wife I love her deeply. We are Kindred Spirits my best friend my lifelong companion her name is Linda what's Spanish for beautiful. She is 15 different nationalities Croatian Eastern European Iberian Middle Eastern British Isles Native American Sephardic Jew. 4% black from Mali . I was patient to wait for the best I like my father would say when you are ready to marry do not settle because this will be your lifelong companion the mother of your children your wife with deep respect Treat Her Like She's a weaker vessel. Thank you my friend we're listening. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Purtroppo per far valutare la sua figura bellissima da attrice, hanno sottovalutato il suo cervello, pieno di progetti e disegni ingegneristi, che dopo con il tempo hanno capito, che una bellissima donna può avere un grande cervello ed essere una grande studiosa, ma a quei tempi preferirono il suo corpo femminile, senza cervello, cara attrice bella e geniale!
God is the mastermind of all things living the animal kingdom insects sea creatures all possess thier own wisdom so why wouldn't he give a woman her fair share of wisdom.Fascinating lending her looks to the silver screen while applying her mind to the science and technical world,a gifted woman.
Her guided torpedo invention WAS finally built; all of the ships enforcing the blockade of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 were equipped with them. Read also the story of Stanislav Petrov, the man who saved the world during that crisis.
One more thing. Why is it that young beautiful people seem to loose their beauty as they get older ? Not all but most it seems. Maybe it is because true beauty never goes away and physical beauty is subject to the aging process. Hmmmmm! Something to ponder huh ?
Gal Gadot is very dear to me, and as she's portrayed Hedy Lamarr in a documentary feature, she would like very much to go on the air to talk about Hedy Lamarr and her quest for an Oscar playing Hedy Lamarr in other feature films. Personally, I'd love to direct a movie about how Hedy Lamarr managed to escape the Nazis who put her father and mother in the Concentration Camps of Austria, where Hedy was born, a beautiful Jewish girl, and after she escaped to the United States she became one of the major movie stars of Paramount Studios. Please do me a favor, put Gal Gadot on an interview to talk about the Holocaust and how her mother managed to escape -- Victor Isaac Alexander, son of Nimrod Alexander (on IMDB).
Yes, it is true that Hedy Lamar orignially came up with the idea for wireless communication. She was also the insipiration for Selina Kyle/Catwoman. And yes, Catwoman is NOT blonde. That means you Michelle Pfeiffer!
Not to minimize her contribution, but Hedy Lamar wasn't even born when the idea of wireless communication was invented. She almost certainly grew up listening to music on the "wireless". She came up with a particular method for how to make a radio signal more difficult to jam. A notable achievement in itself, but it wasn't the invention of the entire original art of wireless communication.
Tesla was the father of wireless...look into it....she did however, innovate it's use....so she's still a genius to me...and so sweet....check out the recent PBS special on her life...it's amazing....
Hedy is stunning! But, I hold "genius" and "hero" titles in very high regard. I'm hesitant to even call Musk or Bezos geniuses at the level of Da Vinci and Einstein... It is a myth that Hedy invented wi-fi. I do believe the soda tablets idea was hers, but I believe she and her husband collaborated on the idea of the frequency jammer that was later cited in the process of the invention of wi-fi. Let's give credit where credit is due. ONLY where it is due :)
Ok, but two points. First, she obviously loved her Hollywood glamour career or she would have retired to pursue science. So although she may have wanted to do more, it doesn't mean she was fed up with acting or the screen life. Second, it was she herself who apparently chose not to publicise this other side of her life. So, if this piece is making a sexism allegation, it's also dubious.
+teddy +gordon I love Hedy as much as any other fan, but lets not belittle Marilyn because of it. Intelligence isn't always academic. Both were great women of the times, although for different reasons. That said, a preference is a preference, eh? Best wishes to the both of you.
teddy mills Marilyn Monroe was not a true blonde. She was a redhead name Norma Jean. She played the ditzy blonde for the masses. She was very intelligent articulate and great actress she understood acting at a very high level. Google Marilyn Monroe and learn the facts. I love Hedy Lamarr she looks like my wife when I met her what 22 years old. Sincerely ARNOLD BOURBON AMARAL
gordon mathew now you do. Hedy Lamarr and Elizabeth Taylor from different generarations. Who could ask for anything more. My wife looked like Hedy Lamarr when I met her at the age of 22. Enjoy my friend the beauty of Hedy Lamarr. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Beautiful women are lonely, they know men like them, not for their character and temperament but for superficial beauty. You can never take suitors seriously because they don’t want the real person but the beautiful face. Eventually the beautiful woman has had enough and they choose to live alone and in peace. The harsh reality, when the looks are gone no one bothers to give a second look. How shallow are human beings.
Answer me this simple question: were the PhD's and scholars in wireless communication at that time were so dumb that they did not come up with this idea that an actress out of nowhere invented.
This type of creativity comes from God.....from heaven. He can give it to whomever..the real question is not : was a hedy a genious?? , it is: did she give thanks for her beautiful mind??...A fascinating character, reminds me of my mother who is 86, and is high i.q. also.
No doubt a remarkable woman. Rare brains and beauty. The Eskanazy jews of Germany were the most brilhants people of the world - some of them did what Hollywood its today. Nietzsche use to say that the jewish women were the most beautiful in the world. We cannot say the same about men. However she was unique and photogenic. Bad actress we must say. But who cares?
I have reason to believe I met her in my earlier years, very beautiful on the inside, the exterior of this woman was again, a sidebar. I hope she found peace with God.
@@1953childstar She looks the same as she won her first beauty pageant when she was 12 years old. She was always beautiful and did not have plastic surgery until she was older. She probably had her teeth capped when she arrived in Hollywood, most movie star did in that era.
The story of her "invention" is made up in order to sell her bio-books. It seems most of the "incredible" stories about her are pure fiction of the author. And where is the proof that she made these technical drawings?
The only thing on Hedy Lamarr's mind was her appearance, shoes, mascara, and breast augmentation. Just because Richard Rhodes writes bestsellers, does not mean his content is worthy of any serious discussion. Besides his and Hedy's claims, there are no evidence that she knew ANYTHING about highly complex technology such radio communication. She had absolutely NO basic EDUCATION, let alone specialized radio-electronics engineering training that was the cutting edge of technology in those days (and in most ways still is). So good luck believing the CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN fluff - that is NOT proof !
Konstruktivist Neo jealous are we? Is it because she was Jewish? There's only three races Caucasian black and mongoloid. Hedy Lamarr what's caucasian just like you. Just like me. I did my DNA on ancestry.com and I am all three races Caucasian black mongoloid. You should do yours it may be somewhat surprise. God is Not partial we are all equal in his eyes. When Noah landed on the ark he had three sons with their wives and they went to separate areas in the Earth. One was Black the other Caucasian the other mongoloid. All mankind on the Earth are descendants of these three sons of Noah. Read your Bible you will find out the truth about Mankind and how Jehovah God created us in His image. He is a god of variety. Imagine if all the flowers in the world were one color blue for example. Or there's only one type of cat one type of dog one type of bird. Psalms. Chapter 37 verses 10 through 30 . Will give you an idea at what is Jehovah's purpose for mankind to live forever on the Earth in peace and unity all three races together. Man created bigotry prejudice it's a satanic mentality. Thank you my friend for listening excuse my typos how to use the microphone when I make a comment do it to and autoimmune disease. I will be fine. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
its a real shame more people dont know who Hedy is,she was brilliant and so fascinating
absolut right. She was so beautiful with brillant mind.
I knew Hedy Lamarr when I lived above her at the Sandy Cove Condominiums in Altamonte Springs she used to invite me down into her apartment on many occasions just when my daughter was just a little girl she got a kick out of her and as I walked into her apartment she would show me all these pictures that she had of like Clark Gable and many other movie stars it was a pleasure to speak with her she was so kind and endearing and warm but when the story came out about the shoplifting of that she was not the one that did the shoplifting she didn't do anything wrong at least she thought she didn't she had explained to me that she had gone into a CVS store and her assistant was with her and there were things that she needed so she had her assistant put them in her pocket and as Hattie had walked out of the store they grabbed headache but not her assistant and storage Teddy with shoplifting and that was not true the Hedy that I knew was a beautiful woman she was very talkative about her career and hurting her life and what she did from when she was just a young girl to present and even in her last days I grew to love this woman so much and miss her very dearly and I wish her well in heaven and I wish the best for her and hope that she is healthy and happy and beloved
The true tragedy really is--she was not taken seriously as a scientist and engineer. Her beauty really is a sidebar. I hope she found the peace. God be with her.
@@katherinegonsauls3481 wait are is this true???
this is making me cry. It makes me angry and so sad. Hedy was such a smart and fantastic women.. I heard that the reason why she was so fixated on developing such a thing, was to get her mother safely to the US during the times of the war. She will never be forgotten..
IMO the reason why she married six times was because she couldn't find someone to replace the void her father left when he died 💔 they were very close
Hedy said more than once, "her beauty was her curse." And by that she meant, people never got past her face.
She was in fact, absolutely stunning!
What a horrible thing to say about another person. Be good, be kind. Jealousy is not good and a curse.
I think she mainly meant that her intellect was undermined. Something that mattered to her more than beauty.
Society couldn't tollerate a great woman who was both smarter and more beautiful than everyone else. She hid her Tesla like mind from the world because she was awear of this fact.
What everyone seems to be missing is......who she was as a person. This video acknowledges her intelligence, and Hollywood acknowledged her beauty, but no one received her personhood- very sad. She was a total sweetie.
Read the book, "Beautiful" by Stephen Michael Searer, St. Martin's Press 2010. It's a biography of Hedy Lamarrs life. Well researched and footnoted, it provides unique insights to whom she was as a person. An excellent read and highly recommended.
I answered an ad for a roommate on Hollywood Beach California, many years ago.The sub lessors name was Lloyd Lamar. There were pictures of Hedy Lamar all over the residence. Apparently my new roommate was the grandson of the Ms Lamar. I wish I could have met her, but even more I wish Lioyd possessed the sweetness his grandmother seemed to have. He was a the roommate from hell. We (there was another roommate as well) were not allowed to access the living room, and were restricted to our bedrooms and the kitchen. but God help you if you borrowed Lloyd's groceries. We figured out he was paying the rent on the place with our money so he did not have to pay at all. Nice work if you can get it. So I was not really in the mood to follow the restrictive rules and decided to have one of lloyds beers, which I would replace in the near future. That resulted in the first and only time someone pointed a gun at me. I called the police but they did nothing except suggest I move if I was not happy. Wonder why they sided with Lloyd??
What an intelligent woman Hedy Lamarr is!!!! Awesome! I salute you Ma'am!! Your legacy lives on in our modern times!!! Thank you for your genius!!!
She also worked with Howard Hughes to come up with a design for faster aircraft, she looked to birds and fish for inspiration, take a look at a B1 bomber straight on at it's shape, looks like the breast/wing joint if an eagle and if you watch the aircraft go thru a flight control surface check the rear flight surfaces move like a bird's tale. The inspiration was really achieved thru the advancement of technology
Extraordinary woman - beauty and brains
Hedy Lamarr had the gift of two languages and one thought and the wisdom of four sciences. Later, we are going to discuss the EVENT. Orlando.
she looks like an angel,unearthy beauty
Indeed it was.... her mind beautiful complex and brilliant.
I agree and further I never knew until today Jan 30th 2020, the depths and dimensions which encompasses this magnificent screen siren. Ms. Lamarr thank you, and blessings to her and her family. Thanks for the upload.
Hedy and George Antheil's patent has been cited in 66 other patents as a basis for those companies patents. Her father taught her much about how things worked. At 5 she took apart and put back together her music box which still plays today. She smashed a light bulb to see what was in it. She was bright at chemistry in school. Inventing was her hobby early that her father encouraged. They used to work on and take apart radios. She referenced a Philco radio consumer remote control that was around since 1939 in the notes for the patent. You have all the electronic groups who said her idea was the basis for how wi-fi, cdma, and the Milstar systems work. The Electronic Frontier Foundation, Lockheed, and the Navy gave Hedy awards for the system. Antheil said it was her idea and he basically wrote it down contributing his player piano knowledge used to switch and synchronize the frequencies for the system. Professor Samuel Mackeown of Cal Tech worked on it and the Inventors Council in Washington. Hedy and George started work on it in 1940 ending with the patent in 1942. Lyon and Lyon in LA got the patent in order. Hedy and George worked on more including a proximity bomb.
He n the late 1960s and 1970s, this woman was still a knock out! Yes, she had a facelift, but man her shape, her skin, her hair, she was a fashion doll! And she was a genius!
She came to live in NY. That's where she lived until she passed away. Sad, that she was broke when she died.
Hedy Lamarr died where she lived her last years, in Casselbery, Florida. She had a million or two left in the bank that was left to her son and daughter.
They frozen her talent and sucked her beauty underestimated her brilliance she wasn't in the right time she was ahead of her time in many ways

Wonder why am I only now finding out about this amazing lady?
Yeah..me 2...
She was a brilliant Jewish woman. I hope you are aware of Marie Curie, too.
She was a genius
what a beauty
What a fascinating woman. She never needed to get cosmetic surgery. She was beautiful. Her mind was somewhere else though, so intelligent.
The startling revalation of a h'wood movie queen also being a genius inventor intrigues women and wows men. Hedys story really becoming more well known.

PBS documentary coming out in May 2018 on her life
Thank you Hedy.

She's a natural...
She left school at 15 to become an actress but was an avid inventor naturally.
A beautiful mind that was never fully appreciated because society chose to instead recognize only her great physical beauty. How unfortunate that one can’t be seen as being able to have both.

85 not 86 but still a good documentary. She definitely had it all though with those looks and intelligence :)
Heddy larmar husband in Germany was a scientist and he had a lot of patents on his inventions.
Who knew?? Hedy Lamar a scientific genius??
see the movie may 18--I'm gonna see it--on pbs. missed in theatres. yes, who knew! makes for a great story!
Isn't it amazing? Its be if we just found out Marilyn m. was a chemist. We can't judge book by cover
so amazing love it.
PERFECTION

La mujer mas hermosa de la historia de Hollywood, ademas de ser la mas inteligente
she was so intelligent😢😢😢
She was the BRUNETTE BARBIE with brains.
Not just beautiful but was very smart as well, bluetooth, Wifi frequency hopping some of the things used today in technology invented by Hedy lamarr

FASCINATING WOMAN~SHE'S HAVING THE LAST LAUGH!!!GOD BLESS YOU HEDY LAMARR,YOU ARE NOW A SUPERNOVA!!!*}
Smart woman.
She and Steve Jobs would have made interesting children. Looks and brains and looks and brains.
Time to get a time machine and force them to date
It's a pity the sound level on this video is low!!
I love Hedy, so beautiful. Why is Gal Gadot going to play Hedy in an upcoming film, couldn't get someone with more of a resemblance?
Heady is more beautiful and not so tall.
gal gadot is from israel..maybe they find a resemblance between gal gadot and hedy lamarr😁
Goddess Extraordinarily beauty Woman in the World.
🦋we need to realize that we are all imperfect so stop judging and fulfill your purpose
If this question could be replied please!! do it: Did Hedy Lamarr contact personally Nicolas Tesla (1856-1943)?

Tesla was the father of wireless...look into it....she did however, innovate it's use....so she's still a genius to me...and so sweet....check out the recent PBS special on her life...it's amazing....
She was very intelligent and beautiful, but also married six times.
اجمل امراة بالعالم الله يرحمه
Hedy is stunning! But, I hold "genius" and "hero" titles in very high regard. I'm hesitant to even call Musk or Bezos geniuses at the level of Da Vinci and Einstein... It is a myth that Hedy invented wi-fi. I do believe the soda tablets idea was hers, but I believe she and her husband collaborated on the idea of the frequency jammer that was later cited in the process of the invention of wi-fi. Let's give credit where credit is due. ONLY where it is due :)
Sure she didn't secretly work for the government & movie star 🎬 was her cover,😂
Nice slap. Bet the first for J Stewart. What happened to Clark Gable's face? She cut him?
Ok, but two points. First, she obviously loved her Hollywood glamour career or she would have retired to pursue science. So although she may have wanted to do more, it doesn't mean she was fed up with acting or the screen life. Second, it was she herself who apparently chose not to publicise this other side of her life. So, if this piece is making a sexism allegation, it's also dubious.
Her name is Hedwig!?
Thinking is not what the mllitary does best. shame, shame.
Was it actually proven that her estranged adopted son was biologically hers?
I would have married her .of course, .if she would have had me as a husband ...Brains and Beauty are an unbeatable combination.
Most simple minded men prefer a blonde Marilyn Munroe. I prefer women that are dark dangerous and smart.
+teddy +gordon I love Hedy as much as any other fan, but lets not belittle Marilyn because of it. Intelligence isn't always academic. Both were great women of the times, although for different reasons. That said, a preference is a preference, eh? Best wishes to the both of you.
teddy mills Marilyn Monroe was not a true blonde. She was a redhead name Norma Jean. She played the ditzy blonde for the masses. She was very intelligent articulate and great actress she understood acting at a very high level. Google Marilyn Monroe and learn the facts. I love Hedy Lamarr she looks like my wife when I met her what 22 years old. Sincerely ARNOLD BOURBON AMARAL
gordon mathew now you do. Hedy Lamarr and Elizabeth Taylor from different generarations. Who could ask for anything more. My wife looked like Hedy Lamarr when I met her at the age of 22. Enjoy my friend the beauty of Hedy Lamarr. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
Look at that one she looks better wrapped up than the rest of them all unwrapped thats how I am 👢 😃 yay!
She invented w f.
Beautiful women are lonely, they know men like them, not for their character and temperament but for superficial beauty. You can never take suitors seriously because they don’t want the real person but the beautiful face. Eventually the beautiful woman has had enough and they choose to live alone and in peace. The harsh reality, when the looks are gone no one bothers to give a second look. How shallow are human beings.
The seeds were already planted by her father and first husband before she went to Hollywood.
Her, a half forgotten celebrity?.WTF they're talking about?.
Hedy Lanarr isn't forgotten at all, the narrator is the one who will become half forgotten. Fucking Loser.
Answer me this simple question: were the PhD's and scholars in wireless communication at that time were so dumb that they did not come up with this idea that an actress out of nowhere invented.
She - alien mind.
mucho mas bella es Monica Santamaria de Nubeluz veanla ella tambien era muy inteligente
This type of creativity comes from God.....from heaven. He can give it to whomever..the real question is not : was a hedy a genious?? , it is: did she give thanks for her beautiful mind??...A fascinating character, reminds me of my mother who is 86, and is high i.q. also.
She might be vegetarian on my speculation.She is totally foxy lady with clean skin.
Even,Sylvie Vartan has similar beauty like Hedy Lamarr.
She loves hunting so no
So sad.....
No doubt a remarkable woman. Rare brains and beauty. The Eskanazy jews of Germany were the most brilhants people of the world - some of them did what Hollywood its today. Nietzsche use to say that the jewish women were the most beautiful in the world. We cannot say the same about men. However she was unique and photogenic. Bad actress we must say. But who cares?
I wonder what her original nose looked like ???
@@1953childstar The same-google her childhood photos.
God assigns names appropriately. Her name was: Hedy = Heady. Not Marilyn. Not Jane. Not Brigitte. Not Farrah. ...Heady.
Isn't it? Quite a shame
6 marriages lol
lots of plastic surgery though
Very correct.. She was the creation of a fantastic German plastic surgeon well before she arrived in America...
I have reason to believe I met her in my earlier years, very beautiful on the inside, the exterior of this woman was again, a sidebar. I hope she found peace with God.
@@1953childstar She looks the same as she won her first beauty pageant when she was 12 years old. She was always beautiful and did not have plastic surgery until she was older. She probably had her teeth capped when she arrived in Hollywood, most movie star did in that era.
@@wildbill47304 Exactly
Conceit AND Haughtiness AND adultery AND lascivious
are you speaking of your self??
What does this have to do with her inventions?
Most Nobel Prize winnners have been Christian. About 10-15% have been Jews.
The story of her "invention" is made up in order to sell her bio-books. It seems most of the "incredible" stories about her are pure fiction of the author. And where is the proof that she made these technical drawings?
Konstruktivist Neo - Neo- Fascist, Neo- Nazi - The proof is up your arse, twit.
The only thing on Hedy Lamarr's mind was her appearance, shoes, mascara, and breast augmentation. Just because Richard Rhodes writes bestsellers, does not mean his content is worthy of any serious discussion. Besides his and Hedy's claims, there are no evidence that she knew ANYTHING about highly complex technology such radio communication. She had absolutely NO basic EDUCATION, let alone specialized radio-electronics engineering training that was the cutting edge of technology in those days (and in most ways still is). So good luck believing the CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN fluff - that is NOT proof !
She had a US patent for her work.
Konstruktivist Neo jealous are we? Is it because she was Jewish? There's only three races Caucasian black and mongoloid. Hedy Lamarr what's caucasian just like you. Just like me. I did my DNA on ancestry.com and I am all three races Caucasian black mongoloid. You should do yours it may be somewhat surprise. God is Not partial we are all equal in his eyes. When Noah landed on the ark he had three sons with their wives and they went to separate areas in the Earth. One was Black the other Caucasian the other mongoloid. All mankind on the Earth are descendants of these three sons of Noah. Read your Bible you will find out the truth about Mankind and how Jehovah God created us in His image. He is a god of variety. Imagine if all the flowers in the world were one color blue for example. Or there's only one type of cat one type of dog one type of bird. Psalms. Chapter 37 verses 10 through 30 . Will give you an idea at what is Jehovah's purpose for mankind to live forever on the Earth in peace and unity all three races together. Man created bigotry prejudice it's a satanic mentality. Thank you my friend for listening excuse my typos how to use the microphone when I make a comment do it to and autoimmune disease. I will be fine. Sincerely Arnold Bourbon Amaral
@@viewer7200 you're wrong. Hedy invented lots: fizz tablets forms drinks, helped Howard Hughes design plane wings
So sad.....
