Have you ever heard of Stanley Meyer?
Around the 70s and 80s, his name exploded all over the world because he claimed to have invented the "Water Fuel Cell". His car doesn't need gasoline, just water to be broken down into hydrogen and oxygen as fuel.
But, why did this technology that can save our pockets disappear like that?
1️⃣ "They Poisoned Me!"
This is the part that makes people the most shocked. In 1998, when Meyer was eating at a restaurant, he suddenly ran out holding his neck and screaming, "They poisoned me!" before collapsing and dying.
Although the official report said the cause of death was a brain problem (aneurysm), his last words were enough to make the world believe that there was an "unknown hand" that wanted to eliminate him.
2️⃣ Enemies of 'Big Oil'?
Most popular theory:
Meyer was killed by a giant oil company or a stakeholder who was afraid that their rice cooker would break if everyone stopped buying oil. Imagine if the world used water, they could wrap up a trillion-ringgit industry in the blink of an eye!
3️⃣ Innovation Or Fraud?
However, from a legal perspective, Meyer once lost in court on charges of defrauding investors. Scientists also claimed that his invention violated the laws of physics because the energy produced did not make sense with the energy used. So, was he a genius who was "disappeared" or just a clever scammer?
—————-
Personally, I think this story is really "dark". In the world of geopolitics and energy, anything that could threaten the world's oil economy will be viewed with suspicion.
Whether Meyer was really poisoned or not, the mystery of his death after claiming to have this "free energy" technology does seem very suspicious.
If the technology is really impossible, why are there so many street inventors trying to copy his work? We have to understand, hydrogen is indeed the future of energy, but the way Meyer "cracked" water is still a big question mark. Is the secret buried with him?
In your opinion, do you believe that Stanley Meyer was really killed to silence him from revealing the water car technology, or did they deliberately keep this story a mystery so that we will continue to depend on oil forever?
STRATEGIC INFO: Technology that is too early usually faces great opposition. Whether it is fact or fiction, history proves that energy innovation is always full of blood and tears.
