Have you ever had that moment in life where you suddenly find that your knowledge from school has benefitted you? Well, I had one of those moments yesterday, when seeing David by Michelangelo. This past year was my first year in the pre-PT program, and in this program we had to take applied anatomy. Applied anatomy consisted of identifying muscles and what movements are involved with each muscle. So when seeing David, the muscle structure and groupings immediately caught my eye. The definition and shadows of the muscles were not only correctly placed anatomically, but also activated in the body’s proper position. It was astounding seeing the mix of art and science at work, and the size of the statue itself drew attention to the detail. Michaelangelo must have extensively studied the human body and muscle groupings to make David as accurate as he did. Only someone with extensive knowledge on the human body would have been able to accomplish such a feat. After admiring the statue for about an hour more, a couple of the other students in the group and I decided to get gelato. We went to a place called “La Strega Nocciola” (or the naughty witch, for all you English speakers). On the way there we just so happened to pass an elderly man with an accordion strapped to his back. As luck would have it, just as he passed behind us, he let out the loudest fart I have ever heard. Due to the decibel of the noise, we were all able to hear it and proceeded to make eye contact with each other. Unable to contain our ourselves, we all erupted in laughter.
