Everyone has had the dream of inventing something. David Wiener made that dream his reality when he was just a kid, and for the past forty years, he has designed, engineered, manufactured, and sold a vast array of products and worked with global brands including Ferrari, Porsche, Ben & Jerry's, Nike and the US Ski Team. This is David's story: a wild roller coaster of ups and downs, as inspirational as it is hysterical.
David's determination to achieve was so powerful it often overruled risk, whether working underwater or under cars, high atop ladders hanging his commercial speakers, or bolting himself onto speeding cars to test ski aerodynamics, but these were just physical dangers. The real dangers were the mental challenges of exhausting stress while constantly creating innovations and being responsible to employees and then a wife and growing family.
This honest, open-hearted memoir will have you laughing and gasping your way through David's extraordinary life, which has influenced multiple industries and been transformed by amazing people, from Ayrton Senna to Bill Gates, Peter Gabriel, and many others. Creating cars and aircraft, furniture, clothing, audio systems and apps, the list goes on and on. And he's still at it!
So what drives a person to take life-changing risks for the sake of an idea or a dream? Fasten your seatbelt and find out.
