Climbing Walls. 1987, la competizione Rock Master fa nascere l'idea delle prime pareti artificiali. Un climber scivola all'improvviso sulla roccia che si stacca falsando le prime gare. Serve un terreno di competizione più stabile, sicuro e identico per tutti i climber in gara. L'arrampicata deve adeguarsi e diventare una vera disciplina sportiva, equa e sicura per gli atleti e allo stesso tempo visibile da una grande quantità di spettatori senza dover sfidare l'imprevedibilità della montagna: servono pareti artificiali e stadi dedicati. Nascono così, le prime pareti da arrampicata artificiali, il playground preferito oggi da migliaia di climber che la roccia non l'hanno nemmeno mai toccata. Sì, anche questo è uno Sparkling Moment fondamentale per questo sport. La storia ce la raccontano i protagonisti, come sempre. Buon ascolto.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
