In the story, “A Sound of Thunder” by Ray Bradbury a man by the name of Mr. Eckels goes on a safari expedition with a company called Time Safari Inc., sixty-five million years back in time.

While Biff is in some ways desperate to impress his father, he is also conscious about the fact that Willy has failed his attempt to be successful in his career. He considers his dad’s dreams materialistic and unreachable. As a matter of fact, in the Requiem, even after his father’s death, Biff says: “He had the wrong dreams.

As he pushes the starting lever into the extreme position, he wonders if what he is experiencing is actually happening. As he tears his vision from the clock, the Time Traveler realizes a storm is forming around him and pushes the stopping lever. The machine stumbles in the sky and the Time Traveler is flung through the air! In the novel The Time Machine by H.G.
