Sub-Zero. All of his inventions are awesome and well beyond his own time.
 
Fantastic artist. And laid down many engineering concepts that we use today, despite his many inventions not being used in his time period.

Sub-Zero.
 
Sub-Zero.

My favorite t-shirt, which I no longer use given that it is a bit short now, is black and has white drawing of a bicycle along with schematics of his.

EDIT: Looks like this one, but with white lettering.

A genius who came up with ideas for inventions that were way ahead of the time. Very Cool.
 
One of the coolest people in history.
 
Sub-Zero

If all the inventions, the Mona Lisa and that self portrait of his last supper isn't enough to make him Sub-Zero I don't know what is.
 
Even though I nominated McQueen because I thought he was the coolest man in history, I take it back. Leonardo is cooler. But we'll see in a week who gets the top tier named after them.
 
A great mind well beyond the time he lived in, he ideated a lot of stuff in benefit of humanity, and leave a legacy.

If that's not Sub-Zero enough for you, I don't what is in you mind :rolleyes:
 
Sub zero to the max. He's the one who did and perfected nearly everything of that era.
