From Wondry, I'm French Stewart, and this is Who's Amazing Life? You've heard of people who changed the course of history. But before they made their mark on the world, they were people like you and me, still figuring out what they wanted to do with their lives. On this episode, you will be the person that everybody knows.

You might be a musician or an athlete, a scientist, or a painter.

You may know what that person accomplished later in life. But now you can experience everything

that they faced along the way,

from the challenges and the heart breaks,

the triumphs, the excitement,

all the moments that built this person

into someone who would change the world.

There will be clues, so pay attention, but only at the end will you find out who you are.

So sit back and imagine your amazing life as the cowboy. Imagine you're hiking up a steep mountain trail in the Adirondack Mountains.

The midday sun shines bright over the lush green tree tops.

Joining you on today's adventure is your dad, but he's so far ahead of you on the trail.

You have to squint to see him.

Hurry up, son. We're almost there.

I'm walking as fast as I can. Man, the air is thin up here.

The air is really different in the mountains than it is back home in New York City.

Like your dad, you love spending time out in nature.

But at this altitude, the higher you climb, the harder and harder it is for you to catch your breath.

You pause, hoping your father won't notice that you had to slow down yet again.

Come on, get it together.
