Resuscitated by a man?[edit]

I just watched a National Geographic Channel TV show about lightning in which Cicoria's story was profiled. However in that show they said it was a man, not a woman, that resuscitated him at the phone booth, and it even showed a man in the re-enactment. Though I could not confirm this from any other source. Every other source I checked said it was a woman. I can only conclude that the producers of that show made a mistake, but figured I should make a note of this here just in case. -- œ ^™ 13:14, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"acquired savant" is not what Cicoria is[edit]

This is clearly not what Cicoria is: even many sources repeat the same expression, it clearly appears that Cicocria's skills are due to hard work (even according to himself) and not to some mysterious "acquired genius" after his accident – in fact he never became a virtuoso. What remains remarkable is this sudden obsession for piano occurring a few weeks (and still lasting) after him being struck by lightning. 193.54.167.155 (talk) 11:43, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
