There are so manyexceptional human beings which one could dream oftake on existence, of all nature and everything horizon : A visionary philosopher, A inventor or a genius scientist, A unrivaled artist, A actor or a moving musician, A man who started from nothing who built a fortune, A extraordinary athlete, a soul whose kindness transcends borders, A politician who marked his time.
L'human ideal is also varied that there ishuman beings on Earth. As far as I'm concerned, it has evolved with theage. Child, My father represented for me a extraordinary man. Teenager, these are the science fiction authors and of comics who fed my dreams.
Then, at theadulthood, I discovered the emblematic figures of the Silicon Valley, become essential in the modern world.
With the years, comes the harsh reality of the life : his benefits, but above all its homework towards the relatives and the Company. Part of the illusions flies away.
And here comes theage of reason, when we realize that the time already lived far exceeds what we have left. So, a little is enough for us delight and to us to amaze.
Yet even at this stage, there are still questions arising extraordinary nuggets. These last ones years, L'man who me fascinates the most is, without a doubt, Leon Marchand — the largest French swimmer of all time, and perhaps soon the best that the world has known. Thefuture will tell us. He is not the only one to have shone in this sport.
Johnny Weissmuller, in his time, was famous not only for its exploits in swimming, but above all to have incarnate the first Tarzan At movie theater, immortalized by his mythical cry when he was swinging from liana to liana in the jungle.
Another French also marked thehistory : Alfred Nakache, unforgettable champion, whose tragic destiny was hit by the Shoah. Yet he has survived to thehorror of extermination camp ofAuschwitz. His strength and his courage probably have it saved.
Among the indelible names of the swimming also figure Mark Spitz, author of a monumental feat to 1972 Olympic Games with seven gold medals. Then, at the beginning of the 2000s, came the reign of Michael Phelps, L'man of all records.
Today it's the turn of Leon Marchand to shine brightly. It is now part of the very closed circle of the three swimmers having won at least four individual titles during the same Olympiad, picking up four gold medals to Paris 2024 Games.
This is what makes me dream now. I never tire of seeing the videos of each of his exploits during the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
To end with a bit of humor. Here are some graphics that a very dear virtual friend made available to me. These graphics are loosely inspired by our current national hero.
