No other historical (or spiritual figure) has made a bigger impact on history than Jesus Christ.
He brought about God's Message to all and it continued to permeate for the next 2,000 years. People followed Him (and continue to do so) and some did things wrong in His hame.
No one has had a bigger impact than Jesus.

Heron of Alexandria. He brought the world just a breath away from an ancient industrial revolution. I think his impact is still felt in the world today---as well as others like him who went above and beyond to invent things not heard of in their day, like Leonardo da Vinci.
