2. The Parachute
• I’m going to talk
about the
parachute.
• The man who
invented the
parachute was
Leonardo da
Vinchi from
Italy.

3. • He got the idea in
around 1512. One
day when he was
watching the birds
in the sky, he
noticed that they
landed gently on
the ground.
• Leonardo made the
first sketch of a
parachute.

4. • It is a very good
invention because
it helps people to
jump safely from
very high places.
• The Parachute
was used by the
army during World
War I and II.
