At the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis, the marathon was a total mess:
The first place finisher did most of the race in a car,
the guy in second almost died from eating rat poison,

and the fourth place finisher raced in dress pants and shoes,
and took a nap by the side of the road for part of the race.

Beck Weathers was left for dead and fellow climbers had already called his wife to tell her he was gone
then he somehow made it down the mountain and walked back into camp.
On May 11, 1996, Beck Weathers died on Mount Everest.
At least, that’s what everyone was sure had happened.

The truth was even more incredible.

Over a harrowing period of eighteen hours, Everest would do its best to devour Beck Weathers and his fellow climbers.
As raging storms picked off much of his team, including its leader, one by one,
Weathers began to grow increasingly delirious due to exhaustion, exposure, and altitude sickness.

At one point, he threw up his hands and screamed “I’ve got it all figured out”
before falling into a snowbank, and, his team thought, to his death.

The heart-stopping "Kiss of Life" photo that won the 1968 Pulitzer Prize.
At first glance, it looks passionate.
But the photo actually depicts the aftermath of a catastrophic electrical shock,
and the attempt of one lineman to save the life of the other.

Thankfully, he succeeded, all while a newsman from the Jacksonville Journal took photos from the ground below.
