Whether you are a football fan or not, the name of Pele is familiar for you, even if you were not born when he laced up a football boot in anger. Being the greatest player of all time made him known, even after his retirement, and caused his exploits to live on today. Pele had recorded many scenes in people's minds across the words, including the one in which the black and white footage of a teenager tearing apart the best defenders of the world.

One of his other masterpieces is the blurry technicolor footage of a player at the height of his powers, caused one of the best all-time football teams to another World Cup. So, there is no wonder if we describe him as the man, the myth, the legend.

  • The similarities between Pele and Edison are not just about their names. As Thomas Edison was the inventor of the lightbulb, Pele, real name Edson, also showed so many inventions in his career and caused many football pitches to lit up with his skills. 

  • By the time Brazil lost the World Cup to Uruguay in 1950, Pele's father, a footballer in his youth, cried. Though his sadness made Pele upset, it became a motivation for him. Pele promised his father to win the World Cup one day, a promise which he could do it later very well. 

  • There was not any better way than to score four goals on his debut to reward the scout's faith. When Pele signed for Santos at the tender age of 15, he proceeded to 4 unbelievable goals.

  • Being known as the best player, Pele led the Brazilian government to declare him a national treasure. So, the government prevented him from playing for foreign football clubs.

  • The mispronunciation of the name of the Brazilian goalkeeper, Bile, as Pele caused Pele to get the nickname. For laughing at, one of Pele's classmates started to call him by this name, which it is obvious his classmate has not won three World Cups, so finally it was Pele who laughed.

  • Pele's excellent performance caused Santos to name one day as Pele Day, which refers to the day Pele scored his 1000th goal on 19 November 1969.
