Capturing lightning in a bottle is more about luck than about skill.
People with no skills, don't build a social media such as Facebook, I don't like the dude at all but I can't fail to recognize his achievement. I dare you become a programmer and build your own idea may be you can capture that lightning you are talking about.
Didn't he steal the idea from two other guys though
I really don't know that, but even then steeling an idea and taking it to where Facebook is right now is not easy feat to do, and again I don't even like the dude but can't deny his accomplishments.
