Where does the idea of mad scientists even come from? Was there ever a real life mad scientist?

Pretty sure the idea of it comes from Frankenstein, and Dr. Mengele could be an example I suppose.

Nikola Tesla was sort of a mad scientist in that he got almost no sleep/night and spent a shit ton of time in his lab all the time. Also had a very weird "photographic" memory. He also fell in love with a pigeon which is kind of "mad"
