Padua, 1794. Ein zwei Meter gro er Barbiersohn flieht aus der Provinz - ohne Geld, ohne Plan, ohne Titel. Er ahnt nicht, dass er eines Tages das Vorbild für Indiana Jones werden wird. Seine Reise führt ihn durch das von Napoleon verwüstete Europa, in die Zirkuszelte Londons - wo er als The Patagonian Samson zwölf Männer auf seinen Schultern trägt - und schlie lich an die Ufer des Nils. Dort, im glühenden Sand Ägyptens, erfindet sich Giovanni Battista Belzoni neu. Mit blo er Muskelkraft und dem Verstand eines Ingenieurs vollbringt er, woran Gelehrte scheitern: Er zerrt eine sieben Tonnen schwere Pharaonenstatue durch die Wüste, öffnet als Erster die verschlossene Chephren-Pyramide und entdeckt das prächtigste Grab im Tal der Könige. All das ohne akademischen Titel, ohne Finanzierung - nur mit seinen Armen, seiner Frau Sarah und einem unstillbaren Hunger nach dem Unmöglichen. Doch der Ruhm hat einen Preis. In einem brutalen Wettlauf um die Schätze der Pharaonen wird Belzoni zum Spielball europäischer Gro mächte. Intrigen, Sabotage und ein erbitterter Rivale bedrohen alles, was er erreicht hat. Und dann lockt ihn ein letztes, tödliches Abenteuer nach Westafrika ... Dieses Buch ist mehr als eine Biografie - es ist Kino für den Kopf. Erleben Sie die erstickende Hitze der Grabkammern, das Knirschen von Granit auf Sand, den Moment, in dem ein Mann allein vor einer Pyramide steht und beschlie t, sie zu öffnen. Eine atemberaubende wahre Geschichte über Mut, Grö enwahn und die Frage, wie weit ein Mensch gehen kann, bevor die Welt ihn stoppt. Tauchen Sie ein in das Abenteuer. Jetzt lesen.
