Nikola Tesla / 尼古拉·特斯拉

Nikola Tesla / 尼古拉·特斯拉 appears in 135.闲聊伟大作家们的八卦（第三弹） through the episode’s [[MarkTwain|Mark Twain / 马克·吐温]] section. The source says Twain and Tesla were close friends, then uses the anecdote of Twain trying a vibration device in Tesla’s lab and losing bodily control as one of the episode’s comic examples.

Tesla’s role here is not a technical history page. He functions as a bridge between Twain’s writerly curiosity, invention culture, and the episode’s broader Author Myth Deflation pattern: canonical figures become easier to understand when they are restored to laboratories, friendships, bodies, jokes, and failed or absurd experiments.
