    The Unsolved Disappearance of the Man Who Invented Motion Pictures | Paul Fischer

    Louis Le Prince was the first person to create moving pictures—but just weeks before unveiling his invention to the world, he mysteriously disappeared. Three and a half years later, Thomas Edison, Le Prince’s rival, made the device public, claiming to have invented it himself.
