He claimed to be listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s oldest practicing surgeon.
Uglov was a pioneer of many new international trends in surgery, especially with regard to the operations on the lungs and heart. His book, “The Surgeon’s Heart,” became a bestseller. The legendary surgeon had performed more than 6,500 operations.
The surgeon, whose motto was “there are no completely hopeless situations, and there should always be a way out,” will be remembered as being fearless by his colleagues. Often he took on board cases that his colleagues considered hopeless, and completed the operations successfully.
In a much-discussed case when he was performing an operation during the Siege of Leningrad during World War II, a shell exploded outside the window and the shock wave sent glass fragments flying into the room. Without thinking of his own safety, Uglov bent over the patient to protect the wound. When the nurse told the surgeon that the explosion had made her drop the only clean scalpel on to the floor, Uglov did not hesitate and completed the operation with a razor.

Garland was Dorothy in the magician of Oz.
To keep up with the frantic pace of making one film after another, Garland, Rooney, and other young performers were constantly given amphetamines, as well as barbiturates, to take before bedtime. For Garland, this constant dose of drugs would lead to addiction and a lifelong struggle

He was a German mathematician, known for his work in group theory, complex analysis, non-Euclidean geometry, and on the connections between geometry and group theory. His 1872 Erlangen Program, classifying geometries by their underlying symmetry groups, was a hugely influential synthesis of much of the mathematics of the day. Klein devised the bottle named after him, a one-sided closed surface which cannot be embedded in three-dimensional Euclidean space, but it may be immersed as a cylinder looped back through itself to join with its other end from the "inside". It may be embedded in Euclidean space of dimensions 4 and higher.
