5 Wright Brothers Facts That Changed History

1. The Wright Brothers Were Self-Taught Inventors

The Wright Brothers did not attend special engineering colleges or flight schools.
Instead, they taught themselves by reading books, observing nature, and doing experiments.

They owned a bicycle repair shop in Dayton, Ohio, where they learned how machines balance and move. This knowledge later helped them design an airplane.

They also studied birds in flight, learning how wings create lift. Their curiosity and hands-on learning helped them succeed where others failed.
