I am always on the lookout for the interesting news story on TV except, of course, they don’t become available to be broadcast on our TV every hour or every day. But, about a few months ago, I just got lucky one day and found out that ABC (Australia) news channel was broadcasting a piece of weird but interesting news.
Anyway, the news story was about a person in some part of India who could survive weeks just by eating grass. Initially, I couldn’t quite believe the news, thinking that the news presenter was probably asking us to think about a hypothetical situation where one would need to survive weeks by eating only grass. But, as the news presenter started to show the activities of a person in a small Indian village, who was chewing grass and swallowing them, I stopped doubting about the authenticity of that news.
The news also presented the interview of the strange Indian man where he was seen to be answering different kinds of questions. For example, he was asked about why and when he decided to start eating grass. The questions like how it really tasted to eat grass, and what his family members really think about his grass-eating habit were also asked. Anyway, the news (more like a mini-documentary) about that person had continued for about 10 minutes where the details about the person’s life, his family, his professions and his other activities were also discussed, apparently in an effort to prove that he was just another regular person, not some superhuman, like any other person except that he just had an incredible ability to survive by eating only grass for weeks.
All in all, it was interesting news because it successfully managed to put together the extraordinary habit of a rather ordinary person from another part of the world. Besides, it also went to a great length in presenting the facts on the ground in order to prove that if people really want to do something or learn something unique, they can do so with their courage and determination.
