Who died because of his invention? Which scientists died in history?

In the development of human history, scientists have undoubtedly made great contributions, and many scientists are particularly crazy. They also did some "dead" things for the research results, such as Newton, Xu, etc.

Newton's most famous time should be when he was hit by an apple, but in fact, in order to study the visual effect of eyeball oppression, he once put a needle under his own eyeball. In his experimental notes, he described it as follows: "I put the needle between the bone and the seam of the eye, as close as possible to the back of the eyeball ... but if it really stays still with the eyeball, even if I continue to press the circle, it will gradually fade." The description of this passage can be said to be really scary, but there is no doubt that his courage is worthy of our admiration.

Then Xu, who was killed for developing gunpowder. He is the son of Xu Shou, a pioneer of modern chemistry in China. At that time, due to Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion, the West stopped exporting gunpowder to China. However, the war at that time needed the support of gunpowder. In order to develop qualified smokeless powder, he personally went to the laboratory to carry out experiments and successfully manufactured smokeless powder. However, when he went to the lab to do it again, he and more than a dozen other employees were killed at the same time because of the explosion of gunpowder.

When it comes to the Nobel Prize, the Nobel Prize may come to mind first, but in fact, Nobel killed his brother because of an accident before the research on nitroglycerin explosives was successful. After an Italian chemist discovered nitroglycerin, Nobel and his brother went to study how to control nitroglycerin in a controllable explosion range. At that time, studying explosives was actually a very dangerous act. Their laboratory exploded, killing five people present at that time, including Nobel's own brother.

There are still many such scientists who died in history, but the "death" here is actually a commendatory term, which is a respect for their selfless dedication to science.
