When he was a Kid: ( When he was a kid his leg was very injured one day he came home and his mum asked “ Where are you going “ and then he said to the Olympic Games and then she gave him a metal box to put his metals in it……… The kid Jks.


When Eddie “ the Eagle “ was  a little kid growing up he wanted to one day compete in one of the Olympic Games. So he tried to look for the perfect sport for him then many years later he told his parents that he's going to be a ski jumper. He trained for many days until he meet a man that  used to be a ski jumper himself he helped him train and he also showed him some ski jumpers that weren't even really good. While he was training he still got hurt badly but he never gave up on himself. People told him that he could get hurt and never be able to play but still he never gave up.So he travelled to the next Olympics the were going to be held and then........

Little bit of Info
Inspirational man
So in 1936 a man named Jesse was participating in the Olympic Games. Jesse was a black american so as you might know the Games were held in Germany the leader of Germany was yes indeed Hitler and he banded black people ( I find that so negative in many ways ) to participate in the Olympic Games. But oh Jesse he just had to so participate ( Good on him ) so he stood up for himself and participated anyway's ( WHAT ).


Activity BONUS:
The world
My inspiration is pretty much the world yes strange but true the world has survived for who knows who long yes there might be some ups and downs but everybody has supported one person in the world and that is heaps of help to the world and we support each other so yea


#Theworldwillsurive + #Support = YAYYYY


If I had to pick
It would be all my friends, teachers and Family because they have been there the whole step of the way and they help me become who I am and that's really good. They also cheer me up when I'm sad and there always great fun well friends and family nah joking teachers are great fun too.


#TamB  +  #Helpeachother = Funnnn
T = teachers
Am = FAMily  
B = Bff or Besties

Wow, Cherise, what a thoughtful and thought provoking post. I love your #TamB symbol. I think that it really captures all of the important people who inspire us and help us to be the best that we can be. I am sure that your friends, family, teachers, and besties are all equally inspired by you!

Keep up the great work :)
