World exists and everything that happens is for a reason. Things which is unimaginable or we can imagine today might be the tedium of daily life for some future generations.

But the things which we are seeing today are just normal for us. But there was a time when all these things considered as a miracle. So here brings you some incidents with rare but real photographs.

1. FIRST BATTERY

The first modern day battery was invented in 1800 by the Italian phyisict, Volta Alessandro. His invention was known as voltaic pile. The pile was made up of zinc and copper plates with vinegar or brine dampened between each plate.

It’s amazing how a bit of imagination can change the world. Every gadget users should be thankful to a man behind their working.

2. FIRST CAMERA

Johann Zahn designed the first camera in 1685. But the first photograph was clicked by Nicephore Niepce. The first camera named ‘kodak’ was first offered for sale in 1888

Love and respect to all these humans for their contribution to the mankind. I really wish I could see their faces after they see today’s cameras.

3. FIRST PHOTOGRAPH

Attention all photoholic people out there. Here presenting you the world’s first photograph ever captured.

It was taken by Joseph Nicéphore Niépce in 1826. The shot was taken from a upstairs window at Niépce’s estate in Burgundy. Have you ever thought of seeing the 194 years old picture.

4. FIRST MOVIE THEATRE

For all the movie freaks, do you know that Nickelodeon was the first theatre in the world exclusively devoted to showing motion pictures. It was opened on June 19, 1905 in Pittsburgh, Penn.

6. FIRST TELEVISION

Do you know that the first electronic television was invented in 1927 by a 21 years old inventor named Philo Taylor Farnsworth.

He lived in a house without electricity until he was age 14. Now what’s your excuse?

However 1920s TV quality is still better than UFO sightings caught on tape.

7. FIRST COMPUTER VIRUS

The first virus that attacked MS-DOC is called ‘Brain’ and was written by two brothers Basit Farooq Alvi and Amjad Farooq Alvi, from Lahore, Pakistan in 1986.

Later James Harrison invented first ice making machine used for food purposes such as meat packing in 1857.

10. FIRST ACCIDENT

The world’s first automobile accident occurred in Ohio City, Ohio in 1891.

James Lambert’s vehicle, the first single cylinder gasoline automobile, which was carrying Lambert and James Swoveland hit a tree root, causing the car to go out of control and smash into a hitching Post.
