When Annie took the stage beside her barrel, the audience was confused. Could this person in front of them, this grandma, really be the brave and fearless Mrs. Taylor who dared to ride over the waterfall? Annie told her story, but when she was done, there were no eager questions or loud applause. Everyone seemed to find the oak barrel more interesting than the woman who had ridden inside it.
When Annie was still back in Bay City, imagining her path to fame and fortune, she believed going over Niagara Falls in a barrel would be the hard part, but she was wrong.
