Living monster from Stone?

Yes scientist Corci had made living creatures from stone!!!

This real incident happened in the year 1899. A science major named Andrew Croci started some innovative experiments in his home. At first people opposed him because of the strange noises coming from his room while the experiment was going on. But after years of continuous experiments in secret, he publicly claimed that he could produce living things from stone. He did not stop there, he also submitted his report to the Electrical Society in London.

How he did it? 

procedure =

Initially he started his research with a very simple experiment. By tying a strip of lead from a battery to a piece of porous stone, he dropped the piece into a mixture of sulfuric acid and silicate of potash and passed a current through it.

Results =

On the 14th day, tiny insect-sized creatures were formed in it. On the 18th day they began to take on a certain shape. On the 28th day, they had assumed full size and had begun to move minutely with their tails. On the 30th day they started moving their legs. Further they separated from the stone and started moving.  scientist Croci observed their size and movements through a microscope. But they did not match the slightest similarities to any other known animal available in the world. Small animals have six legs and large animals have eight legs. Unfortunately, all the animals died within a week. He improved more and more each time without leaving any fault in the experiment. Many scientists visited his small laboratory to learn about his magic. Even scientists like Faraday himself approved his experiments and conclusions. His research got very weird comments. 

And then a horrible incident happened......😣

'While his laboratory was in progress, a fire 🔥 broke out in his laboratory and then not only great scientist Corci died, but his laborious research papers where he had written about how to create living things from the stone also got burned in the fire.
