I recently visited madame tusauds in amsterdam and noticed that it hasn't really been that long since einstein died, i found this extremely hard to believe as i always thought he had lived in the 17th/18th century, it wasn't til i thought about it logically i realised that it makes alot more sense he was around in the 20th century!!!
