In "Lord of the Flies," the wind carries a dead parachutist to the top of the mountain. This event triggers fear and paranoia among the boys as they mistake the parachutist for a beast.
He climbs the mountain after an epileptic seizure to seek the truth. He does finds out that the 'beast' is actually just a dead parachutist.
They thought the beast was the thing that fell from the sky referring to the parachutist who was dead when landed on the top of the mountain.
Simon.
No, the first boys to see the dead body of the parachutist on the mountain top were the twins Samneric, who were on fire duty there.
the "beast" is actually a dead parachuter that died fighting in the war in planes over the mountain. he landed on top of the mountain and his body sways back and forth from the wind and the boys samneric believe it's a beast after seeing it's shadow.
No. Because Simon went and found out what they thought was the beast was a dead parachutist's parchute hanging on the tip of the mountain from a fight from above. it was all in their heads.
The "beast" that Samneric see in "Lord of the Flies" is actually a dead parachutist whose body gets tangled in the trees and moves with the wind, creating the illusion of a monster. The boys mistake the parachutist for a frightening beast and report it as such to the rest of the group.
Sam and Eric mistake the dead parachutist for the "Beast" due to the way the parachute moves in the wind and the terrifying sight of the body. They are so frightened that they run back to the group and report seeing the Beast on the mountain.
Simon's death is ironic because he is on his way to tell the rest of the boys that the beast on the mountain top is simply the dead body of a man when he himself is mistaken for the beast and is savagely beaten to death.
In the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, when Ralph asks for a sign from the grownups, a dead parachutist is discovered on the mountain. Initially mistaken for the beast, this discovery amplifies the boys' fears and further destabilizes their society.
The boys run from the dead parachutist because it represents the loss of their innocence and the arrival of true evil on the island. It symbolizes the descent into savagery and the collapse of their civilized behavior. The boys are afraid of the implications of this event and the darkness it represents.
