discovered gravity when an apple fell off of a tree.

He also revolutionised mathematics by finally puttinq to rest the Greek mathematical proposition that all numbers could be written as ratios of other numbers ("rational" numbers) and showed that, for instance, there is no fraction that gives the exact value of PI, as it does not have an exact value.

Plus calculus, three laws of motion, law of gravity, speculations on the nature of light - the list goes on.

Check out his contibutions outside of this quick-and-easy, and the work of Leibnitz.
