Presented by Tahatai Coast School
People have been told the wrong story for way too long, and it's time to set things right! Most folks think that flying was just a wild dream until two brothers far away made it real. But guess what? The first real flying hero wasn't from some distant land—he was from right here in New Zealand!
Ever heard of Mad Pearse? His real name was Richard Pearse, and if you haven't heard of him, it's no surprise. The Wright brothers have been getting all the attention for the last hundred years! But now, it's time to uncover the true story of the man who may have taken the world's first-ever flight.
Back then, people would say, "Flying is just for birds!" But did that stop Mad Pearse? No way! He had a big dream, and he believed that one day, he would soar through the sky. And you know what? He was right! Because Pearse wasn't just a dreamer—he was a man who proved that the sky is never the limit!
