skyfall and Mr Green

Mr Green is a well known guy. He loves people and loves flora and fauna even more. When it comes to make a choice, he always chose environment over human beings, because he believes when animals are happy, people will be happier. His full name even more interesting, his full name is: Mr Shoot Green. What his parents meant was he will grow up strong and health, just like a new shoot from any plant. But word has multiple meanings, it can mean he will hurt some people badly, and it can mean himself remain as a shoot, never really grow up to understand anything.
Anyway, unlike some other boasters, Mr. Green is a real doer. He sets good examples for others to follow. To protect environment, he moves into forest and builds a tree hut for himself. He wears leaves, he sleeps on hay mattress, and eats fruits, and even his strings are hand made out of natural fibre. The reason is simple: abandon modern living emissions; do fewer damages to environment; and get closer to flora and fauna. He has hundreds of followers, they come in tow, want to set up camps around his hut. He reckons they got too much belongings, not environmental friendly enough, asks them to setup camps outside of his forest. When he needs anything, he will go to the camps to pick up for free.
One day, a severe thunderstorm strikes the forest. One lightening electrified his tree. Mr Green falls to the ground. He is partially disabled. His left eye cannot see any more; his left arm cannot move any longer; his left leg cannot walk an inch. And most importantly, his brain might have been damaged as well. But he still knows where he is and what he is doing here, and he knows he was stricken by lightening. He reasons the world may be coming to its end, starts to worry his fellows.
He looks up to the east: the sky is torn open by lightening. "oh my god! The sky is broken! this is terrible!"
He looks up to the north: the sky is smashed by lightening. "Oh, Jesus, stop the lightening! Don't let the world come to its end!"
He looks up to the west: the sky is pierced by lightening. "Oh, please help me lord! Stop all these moves! Or we are going to fall into hell!"
He looks up to the south: the sky show up a devil's face in the lightening. "oh, the devil! The sky has fallen! You want to get me? No way! I will go to hide myself before you get me!"
He stands up with his right leg, furiously hops toward the camps, shouting "the sky has fallen" on the way. When he reaches the camps, he hops straight toward a giant bell. He picks up a hammer on the ground, hits the bell as hard as he can. All his followers come out at once.
"I saw the sky falling in the forest, we must quickly hide in caves to save ourselves. Let us go right now, run as fast as you can." he declared,
Someone wants to fetch a jewellery box, "no! Just go!" he shouted back.
He turns and starts to hop, but he is exhausted by now, he falls to the ground. His followers find a stretcher, carry him on it, he guides them toward the caves.
They arrive the caves very soon, someone remembered to carry some candles and matches. They light up candles, march into the caves. Not long after they got into the cave, there is a huge explosion, the walls around them start to burn. They have run into a coal cave in the rush. Mr. Green died along with a few followers, many of them were injured. They have to retreat and endure the sky fall.
So now there is a new saying: the sky did not fall, Mr Green shot himself.
