Upon Completion

        I believe Pi’s story. I believe that he was stranded on a raft with four wild animals including a zebra, hyena, orang-utan, and Tiger. I believe he tamed a Tiger and visited an algae island that turned acidic at night. I think if I was to have been told the second story first and then his story, I would have believed the second because it is something that seems more real. The second story never changed the strength of my opinion on the first one but rather irritated me that Pi would make up a new story just to please the investigators. If someone didn’t believe my story after everything I had been through at sea, I would say ‘I guess your gunna have to believe because that is the true story.’ Since the first story was so long and had so much detail that I felt like I was there with him sometimes experiencing it all, the second story actually just felt like a story he made up on the spot that only shared character similarities. So in the end Pi’s story was what I believed and the second story had no affect on my opinion on what was really the true story.
