A Dying Soldier Invented Coca-Cola. This Is How It Happened.

- Coca-Cola is widely known as being a symbol of America. It was created by Dr. John Pemberton - a famous physician in the 1800s. When the Civil War hit, he tossed away his lab coat for a buttoned uniform and joined the army.
After getting caught in a direct line of fire, he was given a life-threatening drug to ease the pain for his last few hours.
But he miraculously survived and used his near-death experience to build Coca-Cola’s $74 billion dollar brand.

@@FishwicksREAL Look it up if you don't understand.
Anti depressants much
Even today most "cures" or "aids" for addiction, become the addiction. It's a vicious cycle.
I've also read that Coke owes a lot of it's success to the fact that they made sure Coke would be advertised and sold in every gas station across America with a Coke machine out front, that way thirsty travelers not only bought it they also brought with them on their travels making it a familiar brand to everyone.
They had to have something for the people who don't know how to make their own cup of coffee or tea .
@@coolroy4300 LOL, yeah, no Starbucks back then either.
at the end, coke tastes better than pepsi.
that's the real reason.

@@ancientbob8-439 after a match he pushed aside the Coca Cola and said ‘drink water’ which caused serious issues for Coca Cola

"The loss was to be expected since the business was new" very liberating words for all entrepreneurs around the world
That could be reality soon coz underground rivers and natural water resources are abusively heavily exploited by soft drinks makers (coke being no 1)
It takes 618 liters of fresh natural ground water to make 1 litre of high fructose corn syrup coca cola. That's just about water and I don't wanna start on co2 etc etc
So basically what belongs to nature, the people, the future children's are snatched, exploited for free( no compensation for environmental issues) and sold back to you fans of corporates robbing future of coming generations.

Wait.....it puts a smile on your face when you DO drink it daily? But you said you DONT drink it daily. So how would you know that when you drink it daily it puts a smile on your face? As you originally stated....you dont drink it daily.

Indeed an icon of business. Continue resting in peace John Pemberton.
what they really knew was, that Coca-Cola was addictive, so all they had to do was push the product onto people and then they'd be hooked.
It's 9:20 am on a Sunday morning and after watching this I suddenly have the urge to drink a Coke. 🤔😆
Lol, but the amount was way too small to have any bad impact.

He was a Confederate officer who was wounded in the "Battle of Columbus" at the very end of the war. He is buried in Columbus where he had begun work on his "cure".
I know, first thing I noticed was the implication that he fought the U.S. by showing picture of Union soldiers and then the total absence of any mention of his service to the Army of Georgia and the C.S.A! P.C./history revisionist cowards!
Meant to say "fought FOR the U.S"

Coke started out actually having coke( the drug)in it until they found it was addictive! They were forced to take it out but the rest of the ingredients were left in the drink.

Should've kept it
@@MrShelloa 🤣🤣🤣🤣
To some people it’s still addicting lol
I heard it's still in the Mexican cokes that's why everyone loves the ones from Mexico more in those glass bottles.

Also it wasnt a drink, it was a vaccine
Trix I know it’s a joke but it’s actually the opposite
Wow! What a story. As a entrepreneur, I feel even more inspired.
Most people don't know it, but Coca-Cola actually created Santa Claus. Yeah there was already a Father Christmas or whatever, but Coke brought us Santa. Santa started out like the Energizer Bunny or the Frito Bandido, as a product character, then evolved into being a generic folk character no longer associated with just one product.
“Buying an inferior American drink was considered insulting.” Wait, what

The French believed that sweet tasting food or drinks were for children or toddlers.
@@traceywilcox3108 Truth be told, even today in the South and East of Europe, that thing holds true, I mean, if you ask people in such regions, especially the ones with a lot of alcoholics you'll realize that they don't drink coke, which could be due to it containing sugar and caffeine and that doesn't mix nice with the old fashioned ways of the local street alcoholics and drunkards'

I'd say Coca Cola is more popular than Nike. ask the villagers of the remote countries,they would recognize the drink more than the shoe.
I agree. I heard somewhere that the two words in the English language that are the most recognized in non-english speaking countries are OK and Coca-Cola.
I'd say pepsi is more popular than coke from it's birthplace Atlanta.
That also could be because it is a drink for all ages, where the other name's products would not be owned by all.
Coca cola is easily the most recognizable brand in the whole world
You got that Wright. I never bought Nike before but bought lots of Coke over the years. I think Coke is the most recognized 😋 😏, of all things.

Coca-Cola used to be one of my former company's clients and they actually decorated our whole cafeteria with a 1950's diner theme using the Coca-Cola colors of red and white. It was literally like dining in a themed café. We had the bar stools, red and white vinyl tiles, red and white couches, Coca-Cola neon lights, etc. They also had a huge mural stuck on the office walls.
That' awesome. Like going back in time.

Here it is. John Stith Pemberton (July 8, 1831 - August 16, 1888) was an American biochemist and Confederate States Army veteran who is best known as the inventor of Coca-Cola. In May 1886, he developed an early version of a beverage that would later become world-famous as Coca-Cola, but sold his rights to the drink shortly before his death
Plot twist: A dying soldier invented coke, so others can join him sooner.
