Well, I can say I had no idea who she is or what she did

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Same here Thor. It's a shame she never got any recognition for this feat.

 

[Gnomey]

Indeed, can't say I'd heard of her either. Great story nonetheless.

I just read an article about her last week. Amazing feat.

 

[Wayne Little]

Well done...but first I've heard of her too...

That is such a shame she is hardly known.
