From machine guns to helicopters, tanks of the 15th century, Leonardo da Vinci created and designed many things in his life but you may wonder what this Italian native was like before. Stay tuned for number one to see what his 15th-century use is every day!

Number 10: First Machine Gun.

At school, most of us learned that Da Vinci was an artist, a composer, and a man of art. We are here to tell you today that a good old Leonardo may have had a better deal than you might think! While still the same person who painted the classics like Mona Lisa and the most famous painting of Last Supper, Da Vinci also invented what others were doing as the first machine gun. To make the game even more impressive, he did so in a century when people were not sure what the location of a rifle gun might be in the future of war. The reason why a rifle was not really removed until for a few hundred years is simple no one has ever seen how to make it safe and reliable to use in the 1400s. The Canaanites were large and heavy objects that took years to reload, not all of them were functional. DaVinci did not have such unreasonable limitations in its properties, however. His tricycle triple was lightweight and he rode in a cart for easy transportation. An explosive weapon can be reloaded easily. Did we mention it has three barrels? Yes, yes, it did! Making Da Vinci the creator is the closest thing to the first machine in the world. You know you are doing something right when it takes the whole world almost 500 years to find you!

Number 9: Portable Bridge.

Back in Da Vinci's day, the war involved a lot of travel. Soldiers had no luxury of being transported by train, or by car, or by plane. No, they had to rely on their own feet and on the animals they could train. Getting everywhere on the "heel/toe express" has made the issue of rivers and waterways a problem for the ancient military. No military company likes to get wet, after all. In Leo's time, the civil war involved the siege of many cities and fortresses, and what were the fortresses like? Lots of situations! Which is a big enough problem on their own. We just told you that DaVinci was a military engineer and an artist. When it comes to his military plans ... Leonardo understood the importance of efficiency. It is not surprising, then, that he would face the problem of the soldiers going through all the water cycles that stuck in their path. To solve this the founder did better than build a bridge with wheels, portable and rotating forces that could pull behind them. In his own writings, Leonardo described the establishment of his bridge as "light, but astonishing." We bet the soldiers used the bridge they liked in this because it didn't mean there were no more wet uniforms or rusty swords!

Number 8: The Big Horse.

Among some of his many recording projects, Da Vinci was hired by one of his co-workers to make a 24-foot-long horse. The Governor of Milan sponsored the project, even though it required a considerable amount of copper. There was a lot of information that needed to be used in the calculation that Leonard was forced to undergo a new cast process to ensure that the copper shell was protected from cracking or defects. The king of France invaded Italy. The emperor eventually donated about 40 tons of copper - made in the image of Da Vinci - to the invading king as a bribe. Leonardo was upset at not being able to finish his final project and died without being able to finish it. Fortunately, however, it has a good ending. Leonardo's horse was later dismantled, and the man who did so donated a sculpture in the Italian country of Da Vinci!

Number 7: Robot Knight.

A good number of Da Vinci's designs include the use of cords and pulleys, but no other Knight robot has competed in Milan. The robot is designed without the need for one, and it can sit up, stand up, and measure its appearance! Leonardo's designs are so well-designed that some NASA robots are designed after his work on the Robotic Knight. And we thought that his design with a machine gun was amazing!

Number 6: Parachute.

Da Vinci was not really credited with the invention of the parachute, but he was certainly one of the first men to ever think about it. Over the years, scientists have questioned whether Leonard's design will work. This is because, based on the founders' notes, Leonardo's parachute had to form a far better alliance with modern parachutes. Some researchers are known to say that his design would be extremely difficult, and his design would be inadequate. For the longest time, there was no evidence against these opponents, either. Like many of his many ideas, Leonardo did not build or test the parachute itself. However, the great inventor will be shown well in the end. In the year 2000, the world was shocked when a brave man named Adrian Nichols built and tested DaVinci's design to make fun of it. Also, to everyone's surprise, Leonardo's paradise really worked! Nichols even said that he felt smoother about the ancient design at the time compared to his modern counterparts. Now, it comes from someone so tired of modern parasites that he explored just one an ancient to enjoy ... we'd say maybe you'll know. Perhaps nowadays parachute designers should take a closer look at what the famous Renaissance man did back in the 1400s.

Number 5: Ancient tank.

This is one of the most invented items in da Vinci, so we just had to put it in the top five of our list! Leonardo's car with weapons would be powered by eight men who were supposed to turn the cranes around their many wheels. Although it is often referred to as the car with weapons or a tank, this invention looks like a much bigger metal than anything else. The plates were glued to a soft spot to divert the arrows and other projectiles. If you ever wonder how hot this fenced behemoth will actually be, we will tell you! The ancient machine was fitted with simple cannons inside all angles. There was also a signature area at the top of the wooden and metal tank that allowed operators to extinguish the fire and aim at all sides. Not surprisingly, Da Vinci realized that this establishment could be better used to control mobs and spread enemies. It would have been terrifying in an ancient court!

Number 4: Scuba Gear

DaVinci loved the world around him. He painted it, researched it, and made things to better meet and explore. Leo is best known for his fascination with the air, but he also invented many other things that revolved around water, too. While living in Venice, a great inventor developed quick diving tools that would allow a person to stay in the water longer than he could hold his breath. Sugarcane tubes are also connected to a cork-coughing catheter that provides air from the face to the diver. Da Vinci didn't just stop by letting the man stay underwater, however. He also attached a suit with a balloon that allows the wearer to control his descent and can also help by getting the driver up quickly, if necessary. Wise thinking if you ask us!

Number 3: First Car.

We established that da Vinci was close to his time. We wrote scuba gear, tanks, and more! However, he also invented something that some of us rely on every day. Da Vinci's car was actually not for traveling, however, it was limited. It can be programmed to push itself directly or at angles, but in reality, it cannot be directed. That means Leonardo's self-propelled car did exactly what its maker wanted it to do; he designed for theater and theater, not for travel. Although though Vinci's car was not everything that could be hit, it was sure to give European citizens excitement ... like Leonard would have wanted to do!

Number 2: Helicopter.

DaVinci wanted to conquer not only water and soil but also the sky! So it is not surprising that he developed and designed a helicopter, a sports car. The inventor described this machine as working by compressing the air, then using the generated energy to rotate his helicopter vigorously and rapidly into the sky. As with his parachute design, however, DaVinci did not build or test his airplane plans. And, because of what it will measure, many researchers doubt that it can even be lifted off the ground. But h ... the experts were wrong about the construction of Da Vinci's parachute, so maybe there is hope. Who goes first?

Number 1: Carrying a Ball.

Ball bearings are found in cars, laptops, and almost all modern appliances and equipment. They minimize friction and allow the equipment to rotate without overheating or tearing them completely. Many of Leonardo's inventions were controlled by pulleys and lumps, but at the end of his life, Da Vinci closed the gap between modern and modern technology and regained the ball. Well, the ball carrier actually (as far as we know) began to be used in RomanEmpire, but later lost and the collapse of Rome. It was Da Vinci who also got the ball ten or two years before his death. Member Leonardo da Vinci was one of the greatest artists and founders of all time, but, thanks to his discovery of football ... by the way we all use one of his many resources almost every day!
