SHORT STORY

Explanation: IF I WOKE UP WITH A MERMAID TAIL ONE MORNING I WOULD BE TOTALLY PSYCHED. I THINK I WOULD THINK I AM IN A DREAM AND TRY LOOKING FOR A CLOCK TO ENSURE THAT IT IS NOT A DREAM. I WOULD TRY TO WOBBLE INTO THE POOL AND SEE IF I CAN SWIM. IF I FELT SICK I WOULD CALL 911.

in ray bradbury's short story "a sound of thunder", mr. eckels's fearfulness leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.

in the story, mr. eckels, who is a hunter, hires a time travel company to travel to the age of dinosaurs. although he is excited for the hunting expedition at the beginning, when they reach there and mr. eckels sees the tyrannosaurus, he feels frightened. as he is afraid of the tyrannosaurus, he steps off the path although he has been warned not to do it. by stepping off the path, the entire course of the future is affected: mr. eckart alters the future by stepping on a butterfly, which causes a new man to be elected president in the future. in that way, it is mr. eckart's fearfulness what triggers 'the butterfly effect' and what leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.
