What We Did Today :
Today, we watched a video of a man that jumped from space, which was pretty insane if you ask me. Apparently, it was sponsored by the company called Red Bull, which is an energy drink company, so I'm guessing they did this as some sort of stunt.
My Response :
The first thought in my head was, "Is that guy crazy?!" I didn't believe my eyes when I first saw the video, there was a man free-falling from space ! Think about it, that person jumped thirty-nine thousand miles above Earth, and came down as fast as seven hundred miles an hour! But then another thought came to me, why did he do it? Was this stunt just for the fun of it or was it supposed to prove something? The best reason that I can think of was that it was for scientific research and to prove something. I'm guessing this thing was an experiment and at the same time, a thing just for fun. One thing I wondered was didn't he get dizzy? After a few seconds of falling, he started to spin really fast, and that lasted for a while. Lastly, wasn't the person scared? He basically had a one in three chances of surviving the drop, and yet he still did it, and surprisingly survived. That's my response for the video

John, another good start to posting on your blog. You too asked the same question as Jaydn, "Why did Felix do it?" Then you posed your hypothesis, "as a stunt - sponsored by Red Bull." These are both good things to do as they show you are interacting with the visual text. My question to you is the same as to Jaydn, "Did you look for further information, and if not, why not?" Inquiring minds don't stop with the inquiry question. Looking forward to more inquiry this year!
