Duela 125 urte Nellie Bly kazetari estatubatuarrak Jules Verneren Phileas Fogg pertsonaia ezaguna emulatu nahi izan zuen, munduari 80 egunean bira osoa eginez.

Ez zen hura izan Elizabeth Cochraneren –hori zuen benetako izena– lorpen bakarra. Besteak beste, 1887an, eritasun mental bat zuela itxuratuz, erietxe psikiatriko batean sar zezaten lortu zuen.

Kasua epaitegietara iritsi zen, eta erietxeko baldintzak hobetzea erabaki zutenean kazetariaren gomendioak aintzat hartu zituzten. Munduari bira eman baino lehen, gaixo batzuen egoera iraultzea lortu zuen behintzat.
