Gillian Lee Mad Mountaineer

Mad Mountaineer             

An Australian mountaineer called Gillian Lee was trying to climb to the summit of Mount Everest in May 2019,without an oxygen tank.To avoid the traffic jam on the Nepal side he took the Tibet route on the North side.

As Gil was approaching 7600 m he was constantly coughing and his lips were blue.But he refused to turn back.Because of the lack of oxygen he passed out. The Sherpa dragged him down to his tent to try to warm him up by putting him in his sleeping bag with hot water bottles. They also gave him oxygen.  If he was up there for another 10 to 15 minutes he would have been done for. So they decided to strap him to a sleeping mat to make a makeshift sled .

6000 up the maunga the Sherpas stumbled into a Chinese rope fixing team. The Chinese team helped Gil get down the mountain until there was no more snow. They called a yak man and strapped him to the animal,a 22 kilometer ride that took 6 hours. Gil recalls that it was the most uncomfortable ride he has ever taken in his whole life time. Finally they arrived at base camp. The sherpas put him on a helicopter for a 20 minute ride to Kathmandu Hospital.

When he arrived at the hospital Gils Mum was waiting for her selfish son. She was furious at him! I wonder if he is going to attempt to climb Mount Everest without an oxygen tank again?

Speech

                              Introduction

Kia Ora and welcome to the world of movies.I hope you’ll agree with my opinion after listening to my speech.Would you rather watch movies at the theatre or movies at home?

    What is my opinion       

My opinion is to watch movies at home rather than the theatre and I’ll tell you why.

                         Food

you are not allowed to bring outside food inside the movie theatre.Why? So the Employs can make a profit from selling Chips,Fizzy drinks,Lollies,etc 

                

               Rubbish cleaners  

Rubbish cleaners only have a window of time to clean literally. You can help the cleaners by putting the rubbish in the right bins.

                    Cost too much

Every time you go to the movies.you have to pay money (here are the prices) for a kid it cost like $8 and for an adult $11 for a family pack it’s like $25 [3 kids 2 adults or 3 adults 2 kids and 1 large popcorn or 2 medium popcorn #NOT WORTH IT]

               Pausing the movie 

It’s a good thing the employs at the theatre don’t pause and resume the movie for people or the movie would be going on and off like a foghorn.

                           Too loud

Some people sit right next to the speakers to feel the whole experience but it could damage your eardrums.People are constantly talking and opening fizzy drinks and chip packets which could spoil the experience  

                                Environment     

When you watch films at home, you can choose to watch movies on the computer or television etc, while the environment is not very good, and the screens are smaller than cinema and the sound effect is worse.But one does not obey rules and you can lie on the couch watching movies,and eat food whenever you want.

                             

                                Conclusion

Turns  out the movie theatre is not so bad after all I'll rate the movie theatre 6/10 and movie at home  8/10         

                             End 

I hope you enjoyed my speech.and hope you’ll love  the next movie you watch. thank you and good day
