The charity Cardiac Risk in the Young estimates that every week, at least 12 people aged between 14 and 35 suffer sudden cardiac death - and 1 in 300 may carry the condition.
A leading pathologist has told this programme they believe those figures are an under-estimate.
The mother of one young woman who died is campaigning for grassroots sports clubs to give young athletes - who are potentially most at risk - mandatory heart screening by specialists.

,1,No power or fuel, no water coming out of the taps and food running dangerously low. The UN says the humanitarian situation in Gaza was already critical and is now "fast becoming untenable". All this as the Israeli military warns it will strike Gaza City "very soon".
Time is fast running out for the 1.1 million people in northern Gaza to comply with Israel's order to evacuate. Hundreds of thousands have fled south, despite Hamas urging them to stay put.
Earlier, Israel said it was giving them safe passage along the two main roads for six hours.
There were reports that Egypt and Israel would let foreigners leave Gaza through the Rafah crossing, but it remained shut amid wrangling over a deal to allow aid in.
The Palestinian health ministry says Israeli air strikes have killed 2,215 people in Gaza - almost a third of them children and 324 in just the last day.
And 55 Palestinians have been killed in the West Bank, in clashes with Israeli troops and attacks by settlers.
More than 1,300 Israelis were killed in last weekend's brutal attack by Hamas - which is designated a terrorist group by many countries.
Israel says it's confirmed that 126 civilians are being held hostage in Gaza.

The man behind it all - former prisoner and billionaire catering boss turned mercenary, Yevgeny Prigozhin.
He is denying it is a coup, instead, that it is a march for justice -prompted by his fury at how Moscow is running the war in Ukraine.

In the early months of the conflict, the fear of attack from the sky was constant, the number of casualties inflicted from the air though, has dropped significantly as foreign defence systems have been donated and deployed.

,1,The search continues for missing Titanic tourist submersible.
Rescuers in a remote area of the Atlantic Ocean are in a race against time to find a tourist submersible that went missing during a dive to the wreck of the Titanic.
The vessel - named the Titan - lost contact with the surface around an hour and forty-five minutes into the expedition on Sunday. The US coast guard estimates the sub had up to four days of emergency oxygen.
Meanwhile, more details are emerging about the five people on board.
They include Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his teenage son Suleman, along with 58-year-old British adventurer Hamish Harding - here on the left - and a French deep sea explorer named Paul-Henri Nargeolet. Stockton Rush - the boss of OceanGate, which runs the trips - is also thought to be on the vessel.
OceanGate have been carrying out expeditions to the Titanic since 2021 - with passengers paying nearly 200,000 pounds for a place.
The ship - which sank in 1912 after hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage - has been the subject of intense interest since its wreck was discovered in 1985.
,1,A deep sea submersible used to take people to view the wreck of the Titanic has gone missing in the Atlantic Ocean.
The company that organises trips to the wreck - Oceangate Expeditions - has confirmed the vessel and crew members are missing.
And there are reports that a British national may be among them.

Today - a response.
Kyiv says it managed to shoot down all of the 18 missiles launched by Russia overnight at the Ukrainian capital - including six hypersonic Kinzhal missiles, one of Moscow's most powerful weapons.
Debris fell in several parts of the city, but no one was injured - after what appeared to be an unsuccessful attempt by Russia to overwhelm Ukraine's air defence.
To the east - Ukrainian forces say they've recaptured around 20 square kilometers around the embattled city of Bakhmut - although heavy fighting is still going on - and there's no word on whether the long awaited counter offensive to recapture occupied territory has actually begun.

(Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Russia may have retreated from Kherson in early November but Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure over the last month signal a new phase of the war, as Putin weaponises the cold weather.
So as parts of Ukraine plunge into sub-zero temperatures and pressure mounts on Putin to negotiate, how might this war evolve as we enter the winter months?
In today’s episode of the Fourcast, we speak to our international editor Lindsey Hilsum - who is currently on her fifth trip to Ukraine since the war began - about what it’s like to be in the muddy trenches with Ukrainian soldiers, Russia’s culture war against Ukraine and if we can expect the war to slow down in the coming months.
All reports from Lindsey's recent trip to Ukraine were produced by Rob Hodge and filmed and edited by Josh Ho.
