Who is a greater engineer? He or Elon 😄
Tesla was founded by two engineers Martin Eberhand and Marc Tappening in 2003. Elon Musk was an investor before taking over as CEO

My hat off and my respects for JB. and where credit is due. Horrible what he’s been through and Much he’s done for EV Tesla industry. Thanks for this informative video 👍
JB is a class act, and will go down in history as one of the founders of this EV revolution.
Trolls will say he's not a founder at all!
Which is stupid. JB is definitely a co-founder of Tesla.
Wow! What a tragedy! Life is brutal ... a lot of respect for JB.
0:55 I raced a Tesla plaid S near Morgan Hill and got SMOKED in 2 seco ds. Plaid S us thevreadon I sold my Supercharged Honda. I cant afford a S yet but the Dual Motor M3 met my needs. I look up to Elon and i am working hard so i can buy my dream car. The model S Plaid.
i've never heard of this guy. what a great story!
This guy made the whole world think that Elon Musk was Tony Stark 😂
omg never knew he had suffered tragedy like that :(
Go JB, Go Tesla... * Many blessings on the good spirit of JB's wife.
all your videos i've watched so far is inspiring and shaping me to realize the dream of becoming a great engineer soon
Thank You
I'm a pilot and was really hoping Elon would would make an electric airplane. I wanted to fly one before career was over. Have you thought of researching the Eviation Alice?
Thanks for another great video.
I am sure back then wasn't the time for the electric planes. But with latest progress in battery power per weight unit, this will surely follow.
@@Alarix246 I agree.
Straubel is credited with helping to develop Tesla's revolutionary lithium-ion battery technology. This technology has allowed Tesla to produce electric cars that have a longer range and a faster charge time than any other electric car on the market.
Here are some of JB Straubel's accomplishments:
Helped to develop Tesla's groundbreaking electric car technology.
Oversaw the development of Tesla's lithium-ion battery technology.
Led Tesla's battery research and development efforts.
Co-founded and CEO of Redwood Materials, a company that recycles lithium-ion batteries.
JB Straubel is a quiet engineer who has made a significant impact on the electric car industry.
Very happy to hear JB coming back to Tesla...talented guy like him needs a good environment to work
This story got very sad at the end T_T it stung my heart
Thank God JB convinced Elon to abandon battery hot-swaps, which were always a terrible idea and a disaster waiting to happen, despite the fact that some others (notably the Chinese company NIO) are doubling down on it. A normal EV battery sits on the FLOOR of the car, INSIDE the structure, securely fastened and sealed from the outside environment. But a swappable battery is just HANGING UNDERNEATH, on the OUTSIDE of the car, held in place by a few bolts/screws, exposed to the elements. A half-ton projectile hanging on by its fingernails to the bottom of the car. But it gets worse because it doesn’t merely hang there. It’s attached/detached, fastened/unfastened repeatedly. This is the opposite of secure. It is precarious BY DESIGN because the hot-swap process needs quick and easy access to the battery. If hot-swappable EV batteries become popular, it is inevitable that, sooner or later, a battery will simply fall off a car on the highway and cause a fatal 20-car pileup due to negligence, incompetence, or fraud.
Yeah...Battery swap is very bad idea
What you are describing is an engineering problem like any other ... This is how the design process starts.
JB makes everyone look good, even Elon! ❤
Elon Musk in days past: “I want to build a better world”
Elon Musk today: “Zuck is a cuck.”
Super underrated brilliance.
So who’s the Chinese guy he’s partnered with for those new sodium batteries.
Outstanding !!!! Brilliant man & a mensch . Very rare these days.
top video
The real Tony Stark. Elon Musk and the rest are just celebrities.
Good cars toxic CEO (Musk )...I like Teslas and the reason why they are here but I would never buy one because of Elon Musk...Glade there are so many other options...
Lucid motors ceo also played a big roll designed model s which you never mentioned.
Woah🎉🎉🎉
I first came to know about JB in Elon's biography written by Ashlee Vance
That made me respect the guy
Always someone talent behind Elon's curtain..
don't start the bullshit , elon's having partners doesn't mean he isn't a genius
@@theidiotskiller9724 tell me how Elon's a genius...
I learnt about the important people and the engineers behind SpaceX too. Elon wants to portray that he founded all these companies by himself. He's the modern Thomas Alva Edison - a rich businessman under the disguise of an inventor.
@@தமிழோன் his visions make him a genius , genius isn't always abt inventing or discovering stuff , being creative is more important than being genius by it's traditional definition , and thomas edison did invent a lot , read abt him before make such dumb claims , he was a genius before tesla
@@தமிழோன் If Elon wasn't a Genius then geniuses wouldn't follow him. Tesla and Space X wouldn't be the most sort after engineering job. Stop the bs. Elon is smart and without Elon Tesla and Space X wouldn't exist. However it wasn't a one man mission and Tesla's growth is due to plenty of insanely smart individuals working in Tesla and Space X (Including Elon and J.B).
Great guy
I would like if you could do a video on the history of adolf Hitler and how he came into power
Also what brought about the WW1 and WW2
Thanks in advance 🤝
Re: Battery Swapping: this would be an idea IF Tesla wasn't battery constrained.
But they are. Which means every battery at a station just waiting, is a car not sold.
his wife was killed by an illegal immigrant. rip.
REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.
May she’s happy with JB love ❤️
Warm welcome JB come back💐
my question: Would JB step in if Elon was unable to run Tesla?
Two heads are always better than one.
My name is bernard
Your videos are interesting, entertaining and educative
I personally admire JB, i was personally hurt when he left @Tesla, i followed what he was doing, recycling batteries and creating LI ON. am happy he is back at Tesla even though its just a rumour
i wrote this without watching the video, now that i did am glad what i said is included
I'd like to see a video about Claude Shannon in your style
Having JB back is 1000 plus for Tesla❤
Any plans to write a book about your research?..
Wow! JB back. Thanks.
Yes,we all need a BMW!Beautyfull!
Rename channel Muskthink when?
👍
Elon is like Steve jobs.... He's merely a figure head while the real talent is behind the scenes
Every big company is like that. No CEO is working in the factory building the products themselves. They're attending meetings, making deals, talking to the press etc...
teSSSla )
I am so sorry for JB.
We all knew someone was behind Musk's success.
I think Elon hires thousands of people.
@@wayando Hiring someone doesn't make you successful.
My point was his success wasn't from his own ability.
❤ JB da OG
Wow this is sad and sad
They still overheat and blow up.
It's not passion it's he is a sensitive .....Bsjdsd(Bro)
All Hail Elon musk
The father to many
Elon is the person behind Tesla's success. JB was Great guy, but Elon was the driver. Elon started many successful companies, JB had no other companies under his belt, this says a lot about who is really responsible for the companies success. Elon makes people feel inadequate so they like to minimise his achievements. They need to be bigger people and applaud his amazing achievements.
Lmfao list how many successful companies Elon started
@@TheDarkL0rd PayPal, SpaceX, Boring company, Tesla energy. I know a man like Elon makes you feel inadequate but you need to be a bigger man and acknowledge his achievements.
@@bikepacker9850 I wouldn't classify Boring Company as successful since it hasn't come close to its future potential but I think it will.
Great Great Video 😉 So Great JB is Back at Tesla Also 💚🩵 Will be more Amazeingg Again😉 Go Teslas 💚🇺🇸🇺🇸
