The moment of the climax is described in vivid detail, with the author’s use of imagery and sensory details immersing the reader in the scene. The author builds up the tension throughout the story, creating an atmosphere of fear and danger, as Rainsford navigates the jungle, hearing the sound of Zaroff’s hounds getting closer and closer. However, when he is finally cornered on the edge of a cliff, Rainsford makes a daring decision to jump off into the ocean below, rather than be killed by Zaroff or his dogs. Rainsford spends days running through the jungle, trying to evade Zaroff and his skilled hunting dogs. After being outwitted by Rainsford at the beginning of the story, Zaroff sets out to hunt him down like an animal. In “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, the climax is the intense moment when Rainsford is being hunted by Zaroff.
