The Flying Tailor

Early 20th century, a time of tremendous change.
Following the industrial revolution that emerged in Europe, people were exploring and inventing new things. Among them, a French tailor named Franz Reichelt hoped to become a legendary inventor like the Wright Brothers by inventing his own parachute. However, repeated failures made him increasingly impatient. In the end, in order to fulfill his commitment to himself to become a successful inventor, he chose to leap from the Eiffel Tower against the advice of others, wearing his own parachute. Sadly, he met his demise as the parachute malfunctioned. Some people found his death absurd, while others admired his courage, akin to that of a fool who persists in the face of adversity.
