Somewhere in the mid 50-ies of the last century, a novice photographer, trying to make some money on all sorts of sensational photographs, Jacques Henri visited promising idea.While the Eiffel Tower leaped to the pavement next suicide bomber, who in the history of this building turned out to be the 99th.
«And if I can shoot jubilee hundredth !?- Zhahnul on the brain enterprising Frenchman.- This is how much I unbuckled million newspapers and magazines! »
Henry figured: a year from the tower jump an average of 2 (two) suicides, which means that he will have to wait for the next about six months.Photographer compare their costs to the event with the expected fee for a unique frame and decided - it's worth it.
think - done.Monsieur Jacques every day, just as a job, went to the Eiffel Tower - to the benefit of members of the press were allowed free of charge - and the poor guy was waiting for the anniversary.From the attic, swallowing the cooling coffee from a thermos and eating cherstveyuschimi croissants (food, he always took with him, for fear, and for a few minutes to absent himself in a cafe), a photographer with the opening to the closing of the tower looked around and kept the "funnel" in full combat readiness.
but were day after day, week after week, and tourists stupidly staring at the roofs of buildings, and none of them did not give the possibility of Henri rich.
Cursing obmelchali, unable even trivial suicide folk, Monsieur Jacques decided that it is not necessary to follow all indiscriminately and relentlessly twist head against its axis - have neck start to ache a bit, and started looking for people around more analytical, trying to figure out who isare able to break out, so to speak, of the life context;in other words, who looks more miserable.
found that gloomy faces on the tower missing, but a gain photographer is still to no avail.In addition, many of the characters are too irritated react when Henri saw them closely;shlopotat risk in face and profile proved to be too great.And in the end he started to look for an entirely different - shoes.
Indeed, if people worn shoes, why the hell did he spend the last sous and francs at an expensive ticket for the observation of urban neighborhoods?For months I monitored footwear tourists - women, men, and children's - he gradually began to notice from moccasins, boots, shoes, boots gradually systemic defects and to estimate the possibility of removing them.And Henry suddenly became interested in this new hobby for myself ...
Jubilee suicide Monsieur Jacques did not wait, but he soon opened his shoe shop.Over time, the network of "Shoe Atelier Jacques Henri" covered the whole of Paris, and a frustrated photographer became a successful businessman.
It turned out that even a small decision to make human problems more easily than someone else's misfortune.
