Inside with Brett Hawke

#199 Tyler Clary, Olympic Champ, opens up about heart surgery


Listen Later

At the 2012 London Olympics, Tyler Clary won the 200 Backstroke.   

Nine years later, he underwent successful open heart surgery to fix a leaky aortic valve. For every pint of blood his heart tried to pump, ½ a pint flowed backwards.  

He won Olympic gold with a heart operating at only 70% efficiency.   

Unbelievable.  

Enjoy!
