In the novel Crabbe by William Bell, an inductive leap too far is mad by the main character Crabbe, which leads to the main conflict in the novel. Crabbe is not happy with his life from his parents to his school. He believes that everybody doesn't treat him well, so he decides to a inductive leap too far and decides to run away into the woods. Crabbe doesn't think his problems through, and he decides if he packs up properly he can probably survive alone in the woods. So without hesitation Crabbe leaves and runs away into the wild without no one knowing. This is an inductive leap too far because Crabbe didn't think over the possible life-threatening dangers he might face alone in the wild, and also he lets his feelings judge his opinion. Does he not know that if he falls or gets seriously injured no one will be there to help him. Crabbe should have thought his problems and decisions through before running away all alone. Because of his decision of running away, while in the wild Crabbe almost got attacked by a bear and then he broke his ribs and bones by getting pulled by the current while canoeing and falling off a water fall. The drop from the waterfall almost killed him if it wasn't for a young women near by who saved him. If that women wasn't close by, Crabbe would have certainly died.
