 Morning everyone!  

Hope´s you are all well! Today I´m going to share a culture text I read on ´The Guardian´.

The title is ´Ian McKellen says fat suit saved him after ‘horrible’ stage fall´. It talk about an 95 years old actor called Ian McKellen, he has ´agonising pain´ by a fall in London’s Noël Coward theatre, he was falled from the stage into the first row of the audience, that was horrible. He said the fat suit he wore saved his ribs and other joints.

He describe the entire fall, he want to shake it off when his foot got caught in a chair, and fall into the lap of someone in the front row.

After that accident, he still reassure himself that he can acting as an actor, but it´s not been able to go back. 

At the end, he thanked all the people who were treating him in hospital.

It difficult to think a fat suit can save people´s life, but that was happend, what a lucky thing in a unlucky accident. If not that suit, we would´t know how bad will happend in that accident...
