Live TV report of Le Horla's sudden descent
Answers
Answer:
Good evening guys... I am Cathy from BBC news. Now, our team is standing in front of La Villette Gas Works, Paris. You can see a crowd of about 300 people behind me. Some are examining the basket. As we see, a huge balloon is lying in the courtyard and it looks like a cake made of yellow cloth! The words 'LE HORLA' is written in golden letters on a mahogany plate.
Oh! now you can see that the gas is being filled in the balloon through a long tube. The people are commanded to stand back. Captain Jovis and the whole passengers are coming out of the canteen. I think they are getting ready to take a flight. Lieutenant Mallet jumps in to the basket attached to the balloon. He is climbing up to the aerial net that is covering the huge balloon. I think he is going to be in the aerial net. He may be in charge of the look out. The whole crew are getting into the basket. We can see them discussing something. Oh! M. Eyries got out. I think the balloon can't afford the weight of the whole crew. Poor guy! He had a big loss of an amazing journey! M. Joliet has cut the rope. Look! Le Horla is flying up and up! It's taking a flight like a bird! It leaps! What a superb view! People are screaming with excitement and joy! Everyone's eyes are traveling with it. The balloon looks like a huge marquee from here! I am sure that it will be a tremendous journey! So, let's wish them luck and let's pray for their safe landing.
This is Cathy covering news for BBC news from Paris. Bye.
PS:That's all. Hope it helps ya!
