This Saturday, September 7, it is Philippe Katerine who took part in the game. One of the topics discussed by the participants was the heart operation the singer underwent when he was a child.
I was 8 years old, my heart stopped beating for 17 minutes but I was asleep, it was taken over by an engine. What I could say is that today when I am late, I am always 17 minutes late, it is very strange...
I saw things that I will always remember, beautiful things that looked a bit like death, at least that's how I understood it. It was very beautiful like multi-colored cushions, you could bounce in them and you felt good in them.
