Leonardo da Vinci: 400 Years Too Early, 13,000 Pages Too Dangerous

The real childhood of Leonardo da Vinci, the man who predicted airplanes and robots centuries before they existed. His ideas were hidden, scattered, and rediscovered long after his death. 

Leonardo da Vinci wasn’t born into genius.

He was born outside of marriage, in Vinci, 1452, to a notary father and a vanished mother.

He grew up sketching birds to simulate flying machines in his mind, dismantling toys to learn motion, and sketching festival machines for royalty.

He painted angels so perfect that his mentor, Andrea del Verrocchio, reportedly stopped painting forever after seeing them.

But here’s the twist most skip:

Art wasn’t his danger. His notebooks were.

Inside 13,000+ pages were:

Flying machines (ornithopter, aerial screw, glider concepts)

Mechanical robots (Leonardo’s knight, automated movement systems)
