HEART ATTACK FACTS • 37% of all deaths in the United States are related to heart disease, making it the largest single cause of natural death. Heart disease kills twice as many people as all forms of cancer combined. The major causes are smoking, fatty diet, high blood pressure, obesity, stress, heredity, lack of exercise, and diabetes. It is an illness produced of man's environment. Before 1900, heart attacks were very rare. The rate of heart disease increased so sharply between 1940 and 1967 that the World Health Organization called it the world’s most serious epidemic. • Every single cell in the heart is guided by an electrical impulse which synchronizes the heartbeat so all muscle cells contract in unison to pump the blood. During a heart attack, the cells begin firing out of turn so the efficiency of the heart is lost and the blood does not get pumped. When doctors shock the heart, the shock overrides each cell’s individual firing mechanism and once again synchronizes every cell, hopefully getting them all to work together again.

• Although living in poverty, Goodyear continued his experiments, adding different chemicals, such as nitric acid, lead oxide, and sulfur, then boiling the mixture. Finally, in 1839, the inventor had his breakthrough, when he discovered that heating natural rubber and sulfur created vulcanized rubber.

• It would seem that the tide had turned for Goodyear, but when he attempted to secure funds for his new venture, his previous financial difficulties made it tough to convince investors. He continued in poverty, pawning his household goods, perfecting his process for five years before he felt confident enough to apply for a patent.

GOODYEAR (continued): • Goodyear was able to secure loans for his experiments, which started out with his working magnesia into the rubber, something that seemed to take away the stickiness. His first creation was rubber shoes, lined with flannel. But the stickiness returned, and his creditors withdrew their money. Another New York businessman who believed in Goodyear’s potential advanced several thousand dollars to continue the work, but the financial Panic of 1837 wiped out his entire fortune and once again, Goodyear was penniless. He and his family were living in an empty rubber factory, living on fish he caught in New York Harbor.
• Even with his patent secured, Goodyear’s life did not turn around, and he was plagued with troubles. Six of his 12 children died in infancy. He was jailed twice for failing to pay debts, and when he died at age 60, he was $200,000 in debt. Fortunately, over the years after his death, royalties accumulated and allowed his family to live comfortably. Thirty-eight years after his death, Frank Seiberling founded a rubber company, which he named Goodyear Tire & Rubber in tribute to the inventor. Today, it’s a billion-dollar company, the world’s largest rubber business, but the Goodyear family derived no capital from it.
