In the classroom were 20 students. every body except one was paying attention to what the teacher was teaching. The boy who wasn't paying attention was looking out of the window, at the apple tree which stood just beside the school gate. He saw two apples falling down...on the ground. The teacher was heard yelling, "Hey, why are you looking out of the window?? Why don't you listen to what I am teaching??"......The boy stood up.
"Sir, I have a question."
"Ask."
"Why does the apple fall down when it is detached from the branch of the tree?? Why doesn't it move up??"
...The whole class was laughing....even the teacher. His classmates started calling him names because he had asked a silly question....
.......Several years later, the boy came up with the answer. The laws of gravity. The boy was none other than Isaac Newton.
