== His Discovery of Electricity ==
Benjamin Franklin invented electricity in 1752 by conducting a kite experiment, which involved flying a kite with a tied metal key during a thunderstorm. As he expected, electricity from the storm transferred to the kite and flew down the string, and gave him an electric shock.
