he went crazy, because the hypothenuse of an isosceles right triangle is irrational, and he believed that all numbers can be expressed as fractions. he murdered an apprentice that proved square root of 2 was irrational.
This was a lot funnier if you were there and witnessed what he did. Written language can't do it any justice. Just imagine the most badass thing a human can do, then imagine if he had a fist-sized rock in each hand while he did it, then imagine him tripping over his tunic right before the final flip.

apparently people think Pythagoras discovered the theorum about lengths of a right triangle.
Babylonians and other regions used this 1,000 years before Pythagoras.

Why is it called the Pythagorean theorem and not the Babylonian theorem then, huh, smart guy? Checkmate athiests.

It wasn't even Pythagoras, but his students, who named the proof after him.

What the fuck other sort of road is there that isn't publicity used?

Well, there are private roads, but in this case it's metaphorical road.
