Harrison Bergeron is the world's most talented, smartest, best looking etc, etc, etc, individual and is forced to wear multiple handicaps, dress in a clown suit with a bulbous red nose he is required to frequently honk, carry around 300lbs of lead, and other ridiculous handicaps. He revolts and gets a blast of lead shot for his efforts.

In "Harrison Bergeron," the conflict is not resolved in a traditional sense.

The resolution highlights the harsh consequences of both the government's policies and individual acts of defiance.
In "Harrison Bergeron," the concept of man vs. nature is not explicitly present. The story mainly focuses on the conflict between individuals (Harrison and the government) in a dystopian society where everyone is forced to be equal in abilities and appearances.
