The World’s Most Extraordinary People
This six-part series hosted by surgeon Gabriel Weston takes a fascinating look at the incredible patients – and scientists – who are pushing the boundaries of medicine. In this episode we meet eight-year-old Virsaviya, whose heart has formed outside her ribcage, a woman who is growing a second skeleton and a paralysed man who is regaining movement thanks to a chip that can read his brain signals. Blown away doesn’t even cover it!
