Nikola Tesla is most
widely known for his contributions to the development of the modern AC electric
supply system and as an early pioneer of many of the technologies that shaped
the second half of the 20th century.
Like many people with OCD, Tesla
was particularly concerned with germs, cleanliness and avoiding disease. According to Smithsonian Magazine, he
obsessively washed his hands, and in his later life ensured that all his food
was boiled before he would touch it. He
often refused to shake hands when he met someone, and usually wore gloves to
avoid any physical contact with people he met.
