The Creation of 3 Million Babies | Rooney Nelson | TEDxHobokenWomen


all right so talk about which the future
right I’m gonna talk about 3,000,000
britches
want me to tell the stories I want to
talk about a friend of mine his name is
Ian the next time you’re lucky you know
to travel to Europe specifically to
England I want you to do something I
want you to take a little journey down
to the south side or the south coast of
England it’s a little town it’s called
st. Andrews I want you to look around
for a guy that is not that physically
imposing it’s about five eight five nine
a little older now kind of balding if
you go into a pub you might see him
sitting there having a little pint
his name is Ian and when you see him I
want you to say wow here’s a guy that
has done something that has never
happened before in recorded history of
mankind he has helped millions of
couples to have to date over 3 million
babies and every day there’s a couple
thousand born across the globe talk
about an erection right so how did he
even do this I’ll tell you how he did it
yeah first of all happen to be a
brilliant guy so he’s a doctor doctor
Ian and a few years ago not that long 20
years ago a little bit longer
Ian was kind of hanging out working in a
lab and he had a Eureka moment and that
moment was oh my god I found a molecule
that I thought was gonna lower blood
pressure but what it raised were men’s
penises few years later with some help
from a few people and on a team that
little Eureka moment becomes a little
blue pill that is known across the world
known as for Hydra and I had the
pleasure of having the opportunity to
work with the N and help take it from
molecule and make it something that
everyone knows and many people use so
people started going wait a minute so
all these guys all over the world people
have tried different things people go to
fertility clinics and all this stuff
well here come along this pill and now
all of a sudden these guys were having
babies creating bridges to the future
love unexpected consequences then
something else occurred which was really
if you think about it quite interesting
and quite revolutionary first I got an
erection now I’m having sex now I’m
having babies but there was a subgroup
that was doing it like they had never
done it before any idea who that
subgroup was men 40 plus the 40 plus guy
was dieting looking good feeling good
right running around walk in the world
what are you gonna have kids in many
cases along comes this drug and now that
guy is like I’m the king of the world
you see him right there all over the
place and many of them started having
kids for the first time at 40 plus you
guys could probably name a couple
anybody ever heard of Alec Baldwin
anybody ever heard of that guy in DC
Donald Trump anybody ever heard of I
mean Rupert Murdoch or make an idol
Simon Cowell right these are all the
guys I’m telling you they’re everywhere
everybody here the piano man Billy Joel
Elton John I mean the list goes on and
on if you start to think about it
anybody here listen to rap music it was
brought up earlier ever heard of a guy
named Jay Z people 40-plus having kids
in many cases for the first time so the
point is I think as you go on this
journey because if you’re here by
definition you’ve got a plan everybody
in here and if you ever watching this
and you’re not here I know you you’ve
got a plan and you knew knew you didn’t
change well yeah you
that’s your plan you’re gonna leave a
lasting imprint you’re probably gonna
make the biggest impact in the way that
you never thought about the law
unintended consequences so as you grow
out and you build that master plan and
you execute it great look out to the
side and look out to the left because
it’s likely that you’re making an impact
in ways that you never imagined
real-world example what does the iPhone
really do what is the law of unintended
consequences with the iPhone it has
become the single largest device used
across a planet to capture record
immortalize everyone’s experiences oh it
makes phone calls – amazing how that
happens
so I’ll just say this in conclusion I
want you to think about again next time
that you travel a little guy it’s not
Brad Pitt doesn’t look like that guy at
all who had the genius to recognize a
moment discover the moment and then lay
a bridge to the future for some of the
people here pretty much many of you
going forward to the tune of over three
million lives to date and Counting
