Lost At Sea
Since Jonathan Swift's novel, Gulliver's Travels, was first published in 1726, it has come to be known as one of the most famous collection of stories of all time. Gulliver washes up onto the land full of little people after a boat crash and storm. This scene reminded me of several modern day movies I have been exposed to that seem to have the same concept involving a storm, boat crash, and a person who washes up to an unknown land in the midst of finding adventure. It seems that maybe this was the beginning of a trending scene that is used in many other stories and movies.
