Many of history's greatest geniuses were also some of the weirdest, from Pythagoras' hatred of beans to Mozart's love of potty humor. Other bizarre geniuses include a Danish astronomer with a pet moose, Napoleon Bonaparte's fear of rabbits, and Sigmund Freud's cocaine addiction. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle believed in fairies, while inventor Nikola Tesla squatted in luxury hotels and fell in love with a pigeon.
