Viktor Schauberger
Comprehend and copy nature

Viktor Schauberger (1885 — 1958) was an exceptional inventor and scientist. His body of work revolves around water and it’s natural behavior and inherent energy.

Instead of pursuing an academic career he relied on his power of observation and came to powerful conclusions that challenge conventional perceptions of science.
