     The blog post before this was when I literally just started reading the book so I'm writing another one about the same book Scorpia by Anthony Horowitz. Currently in this book Alex Rider (the main character) was just caught for sneaking around the campus of the organization Scorpia (a group of people that are supposedly evil)
and was shoved into a room that was going to be flooded. Alex cleverly found a way out with the help of some adrenaline that gives him a boost of strength.

     When I was reading this I started thinking, is every one capable of doing these things that this kid can do? Can everyone pry open metal bars if they are in a life or death situation? Or... does everybody posses the amount of strength to do all of this if they really try?

     I know that adrenaline is supposed to give you something like 3 times your normal strength. But does adrenaline give enough strength to save you from almost any situation. I'm pretty sure that it all depends on what kind of shape you are in, but is every human being able to do so much more than they think if they were in the same shape as Alex and had the same kind of training as Alex? I know that he's only a fictional character but still.

     I think that we all posses the same power as everybody else in the world. But some people can "unlock" that power better than others. If we all train the same than we all can access this power that some people like Alex posses.
