    Decades ago it was thought a foreign body in the heart was a swift one way ticket to the undertakers. Werner Forssmann had other ideas. As a young trainee medic he cut his wrist, inserted a wire through his arteries into his heart, took a leisurely stroll down to his hospital x ray department and had his heart x rayed. He survived, but was fired for being a nutter and a maverick. Some years later he was awarded the Nobel Prize for that stunt.
