About this video
1940 — inside the secretive rooms of Bletchley Park, a young mathematician named Alan Turing built a device that would change both war and technology.
His invention — the Bombe machine — used spinning drums and electrical circuits to test millions of Enigma cipher settings every minute. Metal logic and human intuition worked side by side, turning code into clarity and saving countless lives at sea.
Beyond the immediate victory over Enigma, the Bombe revealed a new idea: that thought itself could be built. Turing’s vision became the foundation for modern computers and artificial intelligence.
👉 If you love real‑life stories of science, espionage, and the brilliance that shaped our world, LIKE, COMMENT & SUBSCRIBE for weekly history storytelling.
