Leonardo da Vinci's theory about the heart was right

Leonardo da Vinci predicted how our heart valves close with almost unbelievable powers of deduction and 500 years later, we know he was right. Leonardo became obsessed with the heart in the latter period of his remarkable life. He made a prediction about the main blood vessel leaving the heart, the aorta. He had figured out how the flow of blood out of the heart actually closes the aortic valve. Leonardo had no way of testing it and no way of seeing inside a working heart. For centuries no one else even speculated. But in the last 50 years technology has finally been invented to show that he was absolutely right. --- Thanks for watching.
