some may think of them as selfish‚ he had his reasons for packing up his few belongings‚ leaving his family and walking “Into the Wild.” The death of Chris McCandless was an accidental tragedy.

prepared for nothing‚ he felt that he was above nature and it could not affect him. Chris McCandless in Jon Krakauer’s “Into The Wild” went into the wild unprepared for the conditions he was about to face.

Chris McCandless is a person who did not believe in rules of society. He believed that
