Hace 16 años, un hombre se encontraba solo en una colina cubierta de hierba durante un festival de música en el estado de Washington, Estados Unidos, y comenzó a bailar solo.

La gente lo miró y luego desvió la vista.

Algunos se rieron.

Su compañero de habitación se acercó y le advirtió que lo estaban filmando.

No se detuvo.

Entonces un desconocido se levantó y se unió a él.

Luego otro.

Entonces la ladera se inclinó.

En cuestión de minutos, cientos de personas corrían desde el otro lado del campo para ser parte de algo que, treinta segundos antes, había sido un hombre del que se reían en un campo.

Alguien que filmaba desde lo alto de la colina dijo en voz baja:

"Mira lo que un hombre solo puede llegar a hacer. Solo un hombre puede cambiar el mundo".

El vídeo se viralizó en internet en 2009.

El emprendedor Derek Sivers lo proyectó en una conferencia TED para explicar cómo empiezan realmente los movimientos sociales.

No con la primera persona lo suficientemente valiente como para iniciarlos, argumentó, sino con la primera persona dispuesta a unirse a ellos.

Collin Wynter, el hombre que bailaba solo, dijo después que no tenía ni idea de que hubiera hecho algo especial. Simplemente estaba cansado de ver a todo el mundo sentado sin moverse.

Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas decided to do an Ironman (at home) during his off week.

• 11 hours
• 7,000 calories burned

He did the swim portion in his pool and then used a peloton and indoor treadmill for the bike and run.

What a madman.

One of the most remarkable images out of Spain yesterday is from this town in Aragón.

That's a lot of water, but the dam — which was ordered built by the Emperor Augustus — held firm, just as it has for the past 2000 years.

Roman concrete: Never leave home without it.
