Wrestling was first sport.

Let's wrestle the facts Footage of the first WWE episode Humankind has been wrestling since John Wreslteton got out of his cave and said to his tribe, "I have an idea." Ok, actually it's a bit more complicated. Wrestling had its roots in Ancient Greece, where it debuted in the first Omplyics but is believed to have been around since before that. This style of wrestling was very different from today. There were very few rules, which made matches a blood bath sometimes. Wrestling was a very popular sport in Ancient Greece and was a way of life for some men. A papyrus fragment, which is paper's ancestor, was found that had instructions on how to wrestle, and it's believed that it came from the 100 AD. If my math is correct that's... a lot of years. In France, there are famous cave paintings that show cavemen wrestling. Meaning that wrestling has existed since the stone age. We have no way to tell if they kept score or what happened when someone won.  Wrestlin

Edison is fraud

   History was lying to you History will tell you that Edison created the lightbulb, but history was lying to you! Edison didn't invent, he stole. One person he stole from was Joesph Swan. Swan created a lightbulb with a carbonized paper filament.  All Edison did was improve on the existing design.  Edison tried to patent the design but Swan stopped him. The lightbulb had existed for years before Edison "invented" the lightbulb. 20 inventors were working on improving an existing model.  The first electric lamp was invented in 1806 . Edison improved on the design by increasing the time until the lightbulb burnt out. Edison has done much for science and he should get credit for those. But when came to the lightbulb he should be acknowledged as someone who got the first patent in a competitive field.
