Philip Emeagwali: Born: Nigeria, 1954, herded goats, survived civil war as a refugee.

Actual Achievement: Won 1989 Gordon Bell Prize for parallel computing—programming 65,000 processors to work together.

Common Myth: That he "built the internet" or held a world record.

Fact: His work was in oil reservoir simulation, not internet infrastructure. He holds no patents, no Ph.D., and his computation was not a world record.
