Marcus Hutchins Saves The World

Have you ever dreamed of doing big? Like, save the world kind of big? Meet Marcus Hutchins, a guy who actually did just that. In 2017 an insidious cyber attack was invading computers all over the world and holding them for ransom. It was infecting hospitals, railways, businesses, and regular people at lightning speed. In 24 hours, it would have made its way to every vulnerable computer in the world...that is if Marcus Hutchins hadn't figured out how to neutralize it. As if that wasn't amazing enough, he was barely out of his teens, he'd done it from the comfort of his bedroom, and he did it by accident. This is one hell of a story you don't want to miss!
