The bullet in Roosevelt's chest...
...did not stop him from speaking for 90 minutes.
Roosevelt became the youngest president in U.S. history...
...and this kind act inspired the creation of the "Teddy Bear."
During a hunting trip, Roosevelt refused to shoot a small bear...
...young Theodore exercised, lifted weights, and did gymnastics.
After being shot in the chest by a gunman...
...when he visited Panama during his term in office.
He was the very first president to travel outside the U.S....
...at the age of 42, after President William McKinley died.
To make his weak and sickly body stronger as a boy...
...he bravely finished his 90-minute speech before going to the hospital.
A green snake, a badger, and a small bear lived in the White House...
...because he wanted to overcome his severe childhood asthma.
Millions of people still look up at his face in South Dakota today...
...to honor Roosevelt's refusal to shoot a captured animal.
