Tycho Brahe, a famous Astronomer, had a pet reindeer which he had a grand funeral for when it died.
Sir Isaac Newton was a very unlikable person. When his servants would drop off mail, they would knock on his door and quickly run in and drop whatever they had on his desk. If they disturbed Newton or if he was just in a bad mood, Newton would throw things including his pen or even the full ink holder (with the ink in it) at his servants.
Before Henry Cavendish discovered Hydrogen, the sun burned helium instead.
No but for real, Cavendish discovered many things, even discovering things that Tesla or Edison are credited with before they were even born. But he was such a social recluse he never put out his work. He could've boosted us 50 years into the future but social anxiety said no.
