  • Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone. Meucci invented it but he did not have enough money to afford it. Graham Bell saw his idea and copied it.

  • @SuperMano2003

    Alexander Graham Bell invented the BELL telephone

  • Comment removed

  • Meucci studied the principles of electromagnetic voice transmission for many years and was able to realise his dream of transmitting his voice through wires in 1856. He installed a telephone-like device within his house in order to communicate with his wife who was ill at the time.[16] Some of Meucci's notes purportedly written in 1857 describe the basic principle of electromagnetic voice transmission or in other words, the telephone:

  • [translation]: "It consists of a vibrating diaphragm and an electrified magnet from a wire that wraps around it in a spiral. The vibrating diaphragm alters the current of the magnet. These alterations of current are all transmitted to the other end of the wire, creating analogous vibrations to the receiving diaphragm and thus, reproduce the words."

  • when Alexander Bell invented the telephone he had 3 missed calls from Chuck Norris

  • @n33dw33d3333 When Alexander Bell invented the telephone your comment was already mainstream.

  • @n33dw33d3333 I came here to say that lol

  • The Doctor brought me here

  • The video stops midway through.

  • The first telephone was made by Johann Philipp Reis. And it gives me hope for mankind when I saw someone else post it too. Who cares if Bell copypasted Meucci's work, Reis still made the first functioning telephone independently from both of them.

  • the real inventor is and was Johann Philipp Reis. the just died to early to finish his work ... bell just finished the work of Reis 2 years later ...

  • @euripvid

    Was it fuck, the telephone goes down to another Scottish Presbyterian, we built the modern world. Everything.

  • "who immigrated to canada[....and then became an american citizen, but let's not mention that]."

  • @oJKBo Whats your point? If you are born and raised in Scotland your Scottish.

  • @midnightmoses100 the point is Bell was born and raised in Scotland so he is Scottish

  • The "photophone", patented in 1880, is alive and well, Mr. Bell.

    This machine of mine sends its signals out on a beam of light.

  • @megafern8522 Sorry, but Bell is only a dishonest man. LADRO in italy

  • Thanks to this guy we have Lady Gaga singing "Telephone"!!!!

  • Bell is a fucking thief. Just look at his company AT&T. Bunch of thieves from day one

  • .. and which some have seen as being similar to that pictured in the Gray caveat. Though both devices are correctly called a liquid transmitter, they are in fact quite different. It is alleged that the device in Gray’s caveat could not be made to work, though it is uncertain how much effort was devoted to the task. What is known is that Bell’s liquid transmitter did work.

  • .. upon in that position by the diaphragm responding to a human voice. It is this electrode that operated just as Bell described it in his patent application: “…the more deeply the conducting-wire is immersed in the mercury or other liquid, the less resistance does the liquid offer to the passage of the current.” This is the device that is pictured in Bell’s notebook entry of March 9th ..

  • Bell’s liquid transmitter of March 10th 1876 was not built to the specifications contained in Gray’s caveat, but rather to the specifications in Bell’s patent application. The positioning of Bell’s electrodes was radically different than those of Gray’s caveat. Bell’s electrodes were relatively far apart, one just touching the surface of the liquid and being acted ..

  • it was a scot (James Watt) who invented the separate condeser for the steam engine that kick started the industrial revolution, big statue of him round my place and a college and library named after him

  • American thief

    honor the memory of Meucci

  • @Stazzo82

    Scottish theif

  • @Stazzo82 Alexander Bell was a Scot, Meucci was Italian, they both live in the United States.

  • @08infidel What's your point, americans born there can't invent anything?

  • what song did you use for this video?

  • Comment removed

  • Video Disliked and reported for fraud.

  • What a great British invention,sod of Italy.

  • meucci realize the first trasmission at la havana, when bell was still a little child, us cogress admit that bell stoled meucci's idea, who was not able to pay the tax

  • @mattvlad3

    US congress also said Saddam had nuclear weapons. Do the research Bell bought the design plus since Bel lwas Scottish the old scottish saying goes, ''You snooze you lose or on your feet lose your seat

  • @ditdatdot yeah but that was for interest, what the interest to say that meucci invented the first telephone? none, no one

  • @mattvlad3

    plus the US congress never said Meucci invented anything they only renowned him for his hand it its invention.

  • @ditdatdot ??? "if meucci was able to pay"......is not a renowned?

  • @mattvlad3

    im not sticking up for bell or anything im just saying i dont care im just glad we have it. and what i was trying to explain is that all the european and american inventors have done what they done thanks to your nation italy because you guys gave the world a democrate civilisation so no if it werent for you italians then we would be discussign this on pc

  • @ditdatdot ok i know what scots have done, i just say that are facts that meucci made the telephone, bell make a buisness

  • @mattvlad3 more inventions by scotland

    cure for insomnia, sulphuric acid, cure for scurvy, bathtubs, hollow pipe drainage, pneumatic tire, halloween, parrifan, breech loading rifle, tubular steel, kelvin scale, macontosh raincoats, hypodermic syringe, flailing machine, lighthouse, first cloned mammal, the idea that earths geological location took millions of years to form, iron bridge, anaesthetic, adhesive postage stamp, artificial diamond and reaping machine

  • @ditdatdot scottish invent stuff? good, i was not deny this

  • @mattvlad3 Don't forget another Scotsman, Andrew Carnegie, he perfected Steel Making

  • @ditdatdot iron bridge is not a scottish invention

  • @mattvlad3

    plus the Italians gave us wine (argument on who invented that is still unclear) but the romans brought it here and now because of you bringing alcahol into our country weve turned into violent drunks haha

  • You senile old fuck, the phone was my idea and you stole it. You can eate out my asshole while I whisper sweet nothings in your ear.

  • @BM5515 well atleast thats not wierd.

  • Antonio Meucci invente the telephone and Bell stole his invention. He's a fraud.

  • @rockxxx555 you guys are fucking idiots. Meucci telegraph only produced clicking sounds. Bells telephone you can actually speak into therefor bell invented the telephone.

  • @avschase are you a college graduate whose major was invention technology?

  • Invention technology is not even a class Idiot.

  • @avschase really? ok look it up if your so smart

  • Dont need to. Obviously you need to though fucking dumb ass.

  • @avschase ooo im so scared

  • @rockxxx555 You are retarded

  • Nova Scotia is an important place in North America when you really think about it. All I remember about Nova Scotia in school is when we learned about the 13 colonies and how there was really 14. They had some important people too, Alexander Graham Bell (founder of AT&T, one of the founders of the National Geographic Society), Paul Revere took his degree in Freemasonry in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. Thomas Edison's parents were both from Marshalltown and his father was the town planner in Digby.

  • Man, him and Edison had one thing in common, Bell lived in Nova Scotia for over 37 years. Edison, however had the blood in 'im, his father and mother were from Nova Scotia, but Edison was born in Milan, Ohio.

  • Thief. Can't believe the BIOGRAPHY CHANNEL still names it the telephone inventor. Even when the USA government recognized that Meucci is the real inventor. Maybe for them BUSH is almost a saint.

  • Meucci is rolling over on his grave !!!

  • Bell was a thief who had his lawyers steal the patent from another inventor.

    whilst Bell went on to great success and fame, the other man died pennyless and un-credited for his work.

    Shame on you LearnMediaofAmerica for uploading this historically false video.

  • @BozoEngland

    Are you serious ?

  • @CollegeLoheart 100% serious.

  • @BozoEngland

    And how do you know of this because I've looked through offical sites, and can't seem to find it ?

  • @BozoEngland Bell and Watson were the first to transmit speech. Meucci was only buzz and clicks. Credit still goes to Bell.

  • @BozoEngland he didn't stole he actualy bought it from antonio meucci

  • @BozoEngland Your name says it all

  • wow nice music

  • hey i go to this school

  • While the invention of a telephone certainly is a wise investment, a hearing aid, is by no mean, a wise invention for a 'treatment' of hearing loss. Whoever invented 'hearing aids' is enormously stupid because, a hearing aid created by abusing technology for the purpose of ignoring the fact that more research is needed to cure 'irreversible' case of hearing loss.

  • cool

  • i love being remembered

  • haha i got a a+ just my copying this hahahahahhahahahahahaa tytyty

  • this is how Alexander Graham Bell becomes evil person to practice against and destroy sign language education. He's an evil man that he was a high priest of Eugenics Movement before the World War II with the T-4 plans!  Bell is a very sicko man!

  • Thanks Alexander...

  • Thank you! I got AN a On my report for school :D

  • Romans? Jesuits? What?

  • oh get real, any inteligent person knows that antonio meucci invented the telephone, alexander graham bell was great at stealing someone elses inventions.

  • He's my great great grandfather! ha

  • Exactly! The person who made this video doesn't have his facts straight. Meucci never worked with Bell, he came up with the invention but didn't have the money for a patent. Which is a stupid thing to require for a f*cking patent. Bell did and took credit years later. How sad.

  • "Bell is widely considered one of the foremost developers of the telephone, together with Antonio Meucci, inventor of the first telephone prototype"

    HAHAHAHA no...

    Antonio Meucci never worked with Alexander Graham Bell. He came up with the invention for the telephone but didn't have the money to patent it. Bell did, and took credit.

  • @romanpr1nce You interpret history through Italian propoganda

  • @midnightmoses100 It's history that congress has recognized. That's not Italian propaganda. Come on you dope.

  • @romanpr1nce Are you talking about the American Congress? Who cares what the American Congress says, fact is Bell invented the first useable telephone, not something that some italian guy invented that made a click, that is not a telephone.

  • @midnightmoses100 No, Bell's telephone was an exact copy of Meucci's. The only difference is, Meucci made his first. But alright kid. :) There's no reason to be upset. Bill Gates also invented the computer and video games. That's all you know about history I'm sure.

  • @romanpr1nce No Bells telephone could be used to have a conversation, the machine meucci came up with was not a telephone because you couldn't have a conversation on it. Yes I agree no reason to get upset, Baird invented the television, Alexander Bain invented the fax machine, two more Scottish inventors, I have forgotten more about history than you know.

  • @midnightmoses100 The point of a telephone is to have a conversation. Retard.

  • @romanpr1nce That is why Bell is the inventor of the telephone, you could have a conversation on Bells invention, but not with the italian guys. You need to look up retard in your dictionary, your picture is there :(

  • @midnightmoses100 I already felt like I was having an argument with a 12 year old, you didn't need to add the emoticon. If you want to argue the origin of the telephone, it goes back to Meucci. The fact that he's an Italian immigrant and not a Scottish immigrant really isn't relevant. The fact that it is to you, suggests you're arguing about ethnicity. There is no need to get frustrated like a child over history. If your best argument is the word retard, I have bad news for you.

  • @romanpr1nce It's funny you "roman" with a union jack for a logo does not want to talk about ethnicity, you are joking. Ethnicity is not relevant, I am talking about facts, the italians invention, you could not have a conversation with it, so it is not a telephone, end of story. So I have bad news for you because I am dealing with facts, not your italian bias. The emotion was for irony. So "roman" tell me are you italian? Yeah, I bet you are.

  • @romanpr1nce One other thing for you to note, the US congress was pressured by italian american organizations to recognize the italian but most disagreed with the House of Representatives resolution.

    The Government of Canada responded ten days later by unanimously passing a parliamentary motion stating that Alexander Graham Bell was the inventor of the telephone. Now tell me again could you have a conversation on the italians invention? answer NO, so it is not a telephone.

  • @midnightmoses100 "the US congress was pressured by italian american organizations to recognize the italian but most disagreed with the House of Representatives resolution."

    No it wasn't dumb ass.

    You may look up the history of the telephone ( telettrofono) if you wan't, but I doubt you ever will. The resolution stated that "if Meucci had been able to pay the $10 fee to maintain the caveat after 1874, no patent could have been issued to Bell."

    He invented it, he couldn't patent it. Move on.

  • @romanpr1nce You didn't answer my question, are you italian, and they way you don't win an arguement is call someone dumb ass. Again italian americans pressured the us house and they recognized him "for his work" not inventing the telephone, the Canadian government already recognized Bell as the inventor. Look up wikipedia and you will see small boy that I am giving you a history lesson you dumb italian. Now go and fuck your boyfriend italian style

  • @midnightmoses100

    "you don't win an arguement is call someone dumb ass...Now go and fuck your boyfriend italian style"

    I meant to call you a retard, but I don't believe in calling people with mental retardation retarded. I'll tell you what you want to here from now on. YOU WIN DA ARGUMENT YAAAY, here's an imaginary gold star.

  • @romanpr1nce You can't read and you won't read history. I told you the Canadian government proclaimed Bell invented the telephone, this is a fact look it up. Again you don't answer my question, Are you italian, no you don't answer because we know you are and that is why you want this italian guy to be the inventor, instead of worrying about italians inventions, learn how to read and write english. "da argument". Please do everyone a favor and keep your opinions to yourself.

  • @midnightmoses100

    "You can't read and you won't read history"

    No dummy, you apparently can't string a coherent argument together. Nor tell the difference between fantasy and reality. You've created your own picture of history based on a retrospective lack of information which has now been established to be false by...guess who...historians.

    "Again you don't answer my question, Are you italian,"

    Ah, this is indeed an ethnic pride issue for you. This underlies the basis for your argument.

  • @midnightmoses100 Oh special child...wow. "Da argument" was meant as a form of jeering. In other words I'm mocking your stupidity, and you failed to even understand that... There is no hope for you. At least you tried.

  • @romanpr1nce Your Jeering is out of context, you jeer when you win. You have lost on every point. Again deal in Facts, Canadian government proclaimed Bell was the inventor of the Telephone, that is a fact. Another fact is the italian can't produce any version of a telephone that worked. Another fact you refuse to say if you are italian. Just for your benefit, when you use words like "Da" it make you look like a fool, but I am sure you are used to that.

  • People need to stop arguing over who invented what ,and come to Baddeck ,Nova Scotia and see the Alexander Graham Bell museum ..truly one of the greatest sites in the world.

  • He wanted the the standard phone greeting to be "ahoy, ahoy"

    Benjamin Franklin wanted "hello"

  • thank you.

  • Yes well the great John Logie Baird the inventor of the television i`m sure he got stiffed as well.

  • James Wilson created the American Presidency,Andrew Smith Hallidie created the cable car,John Muir created National Parks,James Small created the Swing Plough,Alexander Bain created the Fax,Arthur Conan Doyle created Sherlock Holmes,Alexander Fleming created Penicilin,John Logie Baird created Television,the list goes on and on yeah we Scots are amazing.

  • Why do so many American's consider Tesla American? He was Austrian. But it's true Tesla is one of the most intelligent minds to walk the face of the earth, at the same time one of the most ignored and uncredited inventors/minds in our modern age.

  • @Quizzle1983 Tesla got his ideas from a Scotsman, James Clerk Maxwell.

  • yeah. graham bell veryy super person other people didn't do but he did ...

    telephone and internet and mobile phone fax writter and other.. really graham bell game new live us.

  • Experiments on radio transmission have been done years before tesla by different scientists around the globe, but the first patented and working radio remains an exclusive of Marconi.

  • Marconi used Tesla patents? Where are the proves? Stole what? Hahha, funny wikipedia propaganda THERE ARE NO PROVES, Marconi just used a device previously invented by Temistocle Calzecchi-Onesti, that's it. These are proven facts not usual american propaganda (strangely grown up only in the last few years, and I know why...) Why US try always to re-write history....

  • There is absolutely no evidence that Tesla invented the radio, on the other hand there are many proves that Marconi did it, filmed and concrete.

    That's only US propaganda. If someone have just one prove about Tesla, please show them to the world.....

  • this helped me with my homework. thanks! :)

  • ow aa u gaa ma maa means how r u grand mama..it was his first experiment that gave off this sound.....ring ring who's calling..

  • nothing to say...only...poor Meucci...

  • rip off its all about meucci

  • We are at a time in history 100 years down the the track where the excitement of Henry Ford and his Motor Car, Alexander Graham Bell, Thomas Edison and their wonderful inventions that paved the development of the 20th Century has been reinstalled into the hearts and minds of those engaged in the development of

    technology passing into the 21st Century.

  • Funny thing about Thomas Edison. His most famous invention the light bulb was actually invented by a British/Canadian inventor. Edison only bought the patent and claimed it as his own invention. Makes you wonder about his own contribution into all his inventions.

  • hmmmmm

  • This video is bs..meucci invented the transfer of sound through electrical wire when bell was 2 years old.

  • @vincenz55 I bet you are Italian, jealous

  • @midnightmoses100 i bet your g bells relative cant handle the truth

  • @vincenz55 I just deal in facts, I could care less who ivented anything but the facts are that the Scottish invented more than any other race relative to the size of the country, a fact that may be hard for an italian to swallow.

  • Hey guys! It`s Alexander on the phone, he says he has an new invention!

  • Yeah for alexander Graham Bell!!!!

    i live where the it WAS INVENTED and theres a museum, I dont think he "stole" it he made history we got telephones now. Brantfords the telephone city so there.

  • Truly wonderful. I have noticed true history is under attack on YouTube. Finding historical value on YouTube is almost impossible. I believe these are racist tactics to oppress authentic history.

  • The telephone was invented by Antonio Meucci

  • Bell stole the invention to Antonio Meucci.

    Meucci invented the telephone.

  • Im not saying Antonio Meucci didn't event it but Bell got their first lol!

  • that means squat..the inventor and credit should go to meucci not to that plagiarizer.

    Meucci invented the telephone when bell was in diapers

  • I am just saying bell got their first like let say their was an old weak guy and a fit buff gut in a race you know that the buff guy would win but the old guy got their first

  • @mixitaliano Bell and Watson were the first to transmit speech. Meucci was only buzz and clicks. Credit still goes to Bell. You could never talk in Meucci "sound telegraph." Like phones today you speak in them. So the invention goes to Bell. Bell didnt steal anything there both two different invention. One is far more advanced.

  • @avschase

    Bell worked in yhe patent agency were meuci registrered his invention and cpied that concept and invented his telephon just after the end of the meucci patent, why that?why do the U.S. government recognized Meucci as the inventor in the 2002 in the Congress?

    Why the judge had interest in Bell company?

    because meucci was the right man and invented the phone.AT&t was really rich and Bell american citizien while Meucci just a poor immigrant in a racist country(jim crow system u know?)

  • @mixitaliano

    why didnt he patent it?

  • @mixitaliano

    actually Bell didnt steal it. Meucci never invented it either he wrote the design and idea and SOLD it. If Bell never did it someone else would have

  • and to you ignorant bastards. Other things he did, the kite and a fucking working PLANE which flew over a kilomiter. i guess he stole the idea from that italian loser too?

  • @ditdatdot italian losers create even first battery cell, radio, barometer, thermometer, first nuclear reactor(fermi), we dont believe, we just know that bell was a stealer

  • @mattvlad3

    every country including my own (scotland) is blinded by national pride. Meucci never INVTED or CREATED the telephone he created sounds that could travel. Bell created the telephone in which you could speak and hear other peoples coversations. he also invented the first flying plane and metal detector. Albert einstein created the basis for atomic energy but it was a jewish american who invented atomic energy so he could be called a theif? so give me PROOF that bell stole anything

  • @ditdatdot i've no national pride, italy is not even a real nation, but is a fact that invented the phone in la havana, cuba. when bell was 2 years old, enrico fermi create the first nuclear reactor, another fact, you dont know nothing, really

  • @ditdatdot sounds that can travel is a telephone. advancing the technology or idea is not inventing. while bell did create a the more modern version of the telephone, Meucci invented the first one.

  • @mattvlad3

    Italy was the great power it was thanks to Greece so people can call you guys theifs but then again who cares least the world got what it got. I'm probably one of only few educated people smart enough to give thanks to Italy and Greece for giving the world a civilised democracy.since you started on Italys GREAT and wonderful creations ill include scotlands. RADAR, Penicilian, Golf, steam engine, fax machine, percussion powder, microwave oven, refrigerator, television and US navy

  • @mattvlad3

    all those Scottish/British inventions were all due to the Roman (italian) invasion of Brittania because they gave us education and built us roads and made our celtic tribes civilised. so it doesntm atter who did this or who did that. because of all the worlds inventors we are where we are the now.

    to show you im not a nationlist pig I'll even admit that the kilt, haggis and whiskey isnt even Scottish. the kilt came from poland, whiskey came from norway and haggis from Italy lol

  • for ascottishbear1:

    From the words that you used you showed to be as Mister Bell... you don't deserve comment....

  • omg this is sooo not cool :D

  • Antonio Meucci was the ONLY inventor of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell stole his idea!

  • no-one invented "the telephone"

    cos you need two

  • The real inventor of the telephone is the italian "Antonio Meucci".

    On June 15th 2002 the US congress "finally" ricognized Meucci as the real inventor of the telephone.

    Meucci couldnt pay the licence for his invention and so Bell stole it.

    Bell didn't invent the telephone and he has been a dishonest too.

  • bullshit he did asshole..i have put time and effort into this theory. bel did invent the elephone.

  • you are so lame, just because you keep saying that "HE DID" doesnt make Bell an honest person wich invented the phone... history talk bullshit walk

  • I agree.
