Wilbur Wright was born April 16, 1867 in Millville, Ohio, and four years later he had a brother born August 19, 1871 in Dayton, Ohio. (The Wright Brothers Bio) Boys have always been interested in mechanics since they were born. Their father knew a Frenchman who owned a toy store, the Frenchman gave him a flying toy to give to his sons. The boys loved toys and every time the toy broke, they rebuilt it. Orville, very young at school, was studying lessons that the teacher had not yet assigned. Another thing he did was make woodcuts. His younger brother Wilbur, however, had launched an army outside the school saying he wouldn't be forced to do any work. The army even had leaderboards and battles with the janitor trying to catch them and put them in their classes, but he never really had any luck with that. The Wright brothers had many interests when they were children. They loved tinkering with little toys and improving them. Orville had worked on woodcuts. (Chronology of Wilbur and Orville) But what really interested them was the toy that the Frenchman gave them, they found it so cool. But one day, while playing with the toy, the brothers had an idea. What if they could improve the toy and make it bigger and better? They then started making models in their garage building small flying toys, but they never flew as well as the original small version. They then forgot about it and moved on. The Wright brothers had done other things but were still going to school. They then went back to the models of their flying toys and thought, what if we could build a model big enough and made so that we could ride it? on it?But it was just a dream because there had never been a flying machine that people could pilot, but what others considered...... in the middle of paper. .....f America to go to Europe to sell planes. The Wright brothers sold a bunch of planes to various companies and people. And they lived rich and worked on airplanes and helped make the world what it is today. People started making planes, buying them, and putting weapons in them for the future. wars.And Wilbur and Orville taught people all over the world to follow their dreams.On May 30, 1912, at age forty-five, Wilbur Wright died of typhoid fever (Wright Stories). Orville Wright then sold him and his brothers' company and retired, but thirty years later he died on January 30, 1948 from two heart attacks (Orville Dies of a Heart Attack) . Wilbur and Orville revolutionized universal transportation and opened the doors to new, easier travel, communications, and even international trade. They were among the many people we admire and respect today.
