This is a Spanish-language YouTube interview in which Elena asks Millán Ludena how the 2010 Chilean miners' rescue affected him. Millán explains that watching a miners' documentary led him to question the claim that those miners were at "the deepest point on Earth," discovers a deeper point (3,563 m in South Africa) compared with the miners' 720 m, and describes his decision to run a 21 km half-marathon inside that deep hole and to connect it conceptually with the highest point near the sun (the summit of Ecuador's Chimborazo, ~6,000+ m). He and his team submitted the idea to Guinness and turned the endeavor into a documentary film (titled in the transcript as From Quarto San del Núcleo del sol). The piece frames the project as an example of attempting the seemingly impossible and building one's destiny through action.
