Reenacting Edison's Invention of the Incandescent Light Bulb
Loading...
Uploaded by TheHenryFord on Sep 23, 2009
Produced in conjunction with Light's Golden Jubilee, a campaign celebrating the 50th anniversary of Thomas Edison' invention of the commercially available electric light bulb, which ended with an event held in Dearborn, Michigan on October 21, 1929.
In the evening, after a banquet in Thomas Edisons honor, Edison, Henry Ford, and Herbert Hoover went to Edisons reconstructed Menlo Park Laboratory, New Jersey, laboratory in Greenfield Village. Here they met with Edisons former assistant, Francis Jehl, for a reenactment of Edisons creation of the first successful incandescent light bulb fifty years before. Modern subtitles have been added to compensate for the primitive late 1920s sound recording of the event.

He couldn't have done it without Tesla! He made the coil for sustain lighting, then Edison didn't pay him for his work. Without a contract Edison said to Tesla "Welcome to America"! -Now that's cold..

Edison was good with the publicity machine and teachers don't do enough research so for over 100 years school kids have been misinformed who only add to the Edison myth.

@TheLeporad Sir Joseph Swan of Newcastle announced that he had made a working light bulb on 18 December 1878 and on 18 January 1879 he gave a public demonstration in Sunderland – 10 months before Edison. The Americans say it was just a working model and not a commercial reality … but then they would say that, wouldn’t they?
