I sat on a nice soft chair in a seniors lodge in Bow Island, Alberta. Gathered around me were all of my 27 grandchildren. They were and begging for a story so a give them a story of my early life. Here it is: My eyes opened slowly and wondered where I why I was laying on the bottom of my plane. Then slowly it came all back to my. I had been flying my plane over the Cardio Mountains to find a man that had gone into the mountains to do some scientific work. The plane was over a basin called Great Death Hole. It was I place filled with big animals and strange myths about all . One of the myths was that there the only saber toothed cat left in the world was living there. When a man named Sir MacDonald Ping heard that news, he almost went …show more content…
Today I would look around the area and try to get some meat for dinner. I put on my jacket and climbed down to the ground. Then was the first time I saw the huge trees that the plane was on. The trees where way bigger then he had every see before. The trunks of the trees where 13-23 feet around and 100-120 feet tall. This was a strange place, so quiet but it seemed that someone was watching me. I started climbing a hill nearby so I could get a view of the area around the plane crash. It was a hard climb and I be ready with my gun at all times for animals attacks. After four hours of hard climbing, I got to the top of a hill and could see all around the basin. Just as I read about in the newspaper there was mountains all around a patch of green trees and the hill I was standing on was in the middle. I looked hard for a long time but could no way out of the basin. There was mountains standing tall in every direction. I sat down on a log and started eating my lunch of crackers and cheese stings. About 5 minutes later, I was done my lunch and climbed a tree to take a nap for a few minutes. I did not want any animals eating me for dinner. I awoke a few hours later and looked down at the ground to see a dog fighting a cougar. Then it came to me that the cougar was trying to kill me and that the dog had saved my life that I should try to save the dog life. I got my gun, climbed down from the tree and shot the cougar twice. I missed the heart of the cougar and it kept on fighting. After a long struggle, the cougar finally fell down dead. After the cougar was dead the dog came over and sat beside me we become friends forever. He had save my life; I did not know the dog but must have a master somewhere. The dog was bloody, and tried so I took him back to my camp, and cleaned him up. Since that incident that dog loved me with all of his heart. I did not where the dog
The 9/11 Memorial has about 300,000 people visit it each year, you should be one of them to. If you go to New York the 9/11 Memorial is becoming one of the top tourist attractions in the city, and I can’t see why it's not at the top already. The 9/11 Memorial is a beautiful pool with gushing water running down its sides, and within the pool there is a smaller square pool that still has water running down to it. Just to top it off, it has trees that surround the pools, just imagine it when it’s in the fall and all the leaves turn colors and the leaves may float down and into the pool. The best part about visiting the 9/11 Memorial is that it is free! You should be one of the 300,000 a year.
September 19th, 2001 the twin towers underwent an attack by two hijacked planes. Many lives were lost not only in the collapse of the towers, but also the crash itself including the life of Sara Low, age 28. That day she was an attendant on one of the planes. Her wings, which she wore to represent her training as a flight attendant would come to mean much more than just her qualifications. They would come to portray something much more. They would come to represent how America always bounces back from tragedy and how we will never forgot those who were lost.
So here's how it all started I was on a boat going to go hunt for game. Until the captain pointed out ship trap island in the distance. I heard 3 gun shots and ran to the rail to see what happened I dropped my pipe and tried to catch it but instead i plunged into the water. I swam with all my might to get to shore because the the water was freezing cold so i swam towards the shots because it meant shelter in my head then i fell asleep.I woke up and went to find some food I saw the remains of a dead animal and a rifle cartridge and some foot prints.
The plane crash in Guam was an entirely avoidable feat, and with a different cultural background might not have happened at all. At the time of the plane crash, the guide light was broken, the weather nasty, lots of rain and wind, and the pilot was exhausted. The pilot decided to use a type of landing requiring visual sight of the runway and VOR technology. The crew had misgivings about this. The plane was 16 miles away from the airport, where the VOR had led them to, not realizing that they were not at the airport the pilot tried to land the plane after both the first officer and engineer hinted at concern. In the pivotal moment where the first officer or the engineer could have stepped in, they chose not override the authority and allowed the pilot to stay his course.This decision ended the night with the plane crashing into the side of Nimitz Hill, killing 228 people. Power distance, or the acceptance of authority plays a large role in this unfortunate event, there were several opportunities where the first officer or the engineer could have strongly expressed his concern instead of slight hints. At the very end, if the first officer had seized the wheel as it was taught in training, there would have been enough time to save the plane, instead, the first officer allowed the pilot to continue. The cultural power distance in Korea, is higher,
Around the same time as trying to make the Olympics, Louie was enrolled in World War 2. However, Louie still trained when he had free time during the war; running along cars to push him to go faster. Louie was sent on missions during the war that were both battles fought in the air and search missions. During one of his search missions, he encountered near death experiences, such as ditching out of the Green Hornet when the engines started to fail. Even though surviving the plane crash was extraordinary, surviving hunger and thirst for 47 days adrift in a raft with two other people is even more strange. The possibility of surviving that long without proper supplies is extremely low and proves that reality is both more intense and stranger than
The first bomb occurred on Parnell Street near the intersection with Marlborough Street, it occurred at about 17.28. The car was parked outside the Welcome Inn pub and Barry's supermarket at 93 and 91 Parnell Street in a parking bay and also near petrol pumps. Shop fronts had been blown out and cars were destroyed. The bomb car was a metallic green 1970 model Hillman Avenger, registration number DIA 4063. It had been facing toward O'Connell Street, Dublin's main thoroughfare. This car, like the other two bomb cars, had its original registration plates. It had been hijacked in Belfast that
This morning my dad and went to huddle house to get something to eat.When my dad and I left Huddle House we went to get the equipment for the deer. First we when to the campsite to set up for the deer. When we got to the campsite we got the equipment off the truck. After that we waited for the deer. 2 hours later the deer I saw was a 8 point big buck.Then I pulled the rifle and then was a bullet hole in its throat. When I shot the guns there was a big POW! So we loaded it in the truck . Then we went by to
I drove out to the general that was given to me at about midnight. I got out of the car and to my surprise I saw no one, considering how popular the hayride was. I looked around for any signs of life, but there was nothing but the wind. Right, when I was about to give up I heard an eldritch screech come from behind me. When I turned, I saw
One day I was sitting in English class doing my work. Then a flying whale flew into the wall and destroyed it. It flew over to me and swallowed me whole. It then just flew back to the ocean. While in the whale's stomach I saw some interesting things like a dead person, a needle with steroids in it, a few soccer balls, a rabbit, and a roll of duct tape. After I had been in the whale's stomach for about 3 hours, it started to shake violently. Then something was squeezing the life out of the whale. All of the sudden i was flying through the air along with everything else. I landed on some sort of island.
I kept hearing what sounded like moans but this was not human or animal so what was it? I dared not go looking for what I might find. The next morning the noises were gone so I decided to go back to the wreckage. I amazingly find a lighter and a rag. I look for water but don't find any, so I start to head back and I remember seeing my luggage after the crash and I know I put a bottle of water in it. I decide to hurry to get the water when I arrive at the crash I look for my bag I find it but my flight neighbor's dead body is on top of it. I push him off and I start to walk away with it when I hear breathing but it's more like panting kind of like what a dog would do but more viciously. I turn to face the direction it's coming from and to me it sounds like it's coming from my flight neighbor... but that can't be right he's dead so I put head my head on his chest and ... nothing I must've just been hallucinating. I want to keep looking but if I don't get back to my campsite before dark and whatever was here last night I don't want to run into them. So I head back. I made a little hut out of some fallen
My nose was hurting, and I was trying to piece things together. When I took a look in the mirror everything came back to me, I was being hunted by something unknown, and the feeling of being watched came back to me. I was beginning to panic, but realized I was safe. The monster didn't want to kill me other wise I would be dead, this was a game to it, it was its way to have a good time and relieve itself of boredom. I would only be hunting if I played along to, or tried to face it. Fear is only scary if you allow it to be. I went to the wooded area where I was met by it before, it still smelled the same so I knew it was near. I waited for almost a half hour before falling asleep in the woods, it was peaceful in there and it felt surreal. The dream i was having was the most peaceful thing i have ever experienced, there was a medley of tunes that made my body vibrate, the perfect shade of light to make it seem like it was a holy place. The thing was i never woke, the monster had killed me in my sleep, things like this happen when you try and face your fears, all alone, at least i felt at peace. I also didn't feel alone, it felt like everybody i knew as there beside me, trying to guide me through this unknown place, the hunter got me in the end but it taught me things i would have not known if it had never
Last night, a Boeing 747 has made an astonishing landings without any landing gears due to the pilots skill.
I thought that the family wouldn't care they would just think i was in the backyard, i would only be a couple minutes i just want to explore. I walked in the middle of the alley and all i could hear was the birds chirping and the trees blowing. I walked up and down getting all of these new smells and sounds. But out of nowhere i heard the noise again, the same noise that truck mad. I turned around to the sight of a bright red car shooting down the street. I guess the person didn't see me because it didn't slow down at all, if anything it sped up. I had no time to run away because i was filled with shock i just fell to the ground. I closed my eyes and hoped that i wasn't going to die or if i was already dead. After being scarred for my like for about a whole minute i got up off the floor and looked up. The bright red car was now at the end of the alleys still going as fast as it was. I'm alive! I thought that i would have died, did the car go over me or around me i thought. I didn't know if i went under the car or not but the only thing i knew was that i was safe. I didn't want to risk anymore so i ran back to my house, hopped the fence and went through the cat
Yesterday I data to a debt. I walked into the jungle. There I found a beautiful place. There is a garden full of flowers. at the moment I'm going to enter the Park. suddenly I heard a strange sound. then I looked around. It turns out there is a wolf. then I started to run. and I fall into a hole. and I woke up. It turns out that I was only
When I stepped into the large neatly organized white polished plane, I never though something would go wrong. I woke up and found myself on an extremely hot bright sunny desert island filled with shiny soft bright green palm trees containing rough bright yellow hard felt juicy apples. The simple strong plane I was in earlier shattered into little pieces of broken glass and metal when crashing onto the wet slimy coffee colored sand and burning with red orange colored flames. After my realization to this heart throbbing incident I began to run pressing my eight inch footsteps into the wet squishy slimy light brown sand looking in every direction with my wide open eyes filled with confusion in search of other survivors. After finding four
