He wanted to prove the earth is actually flat, apparently all he did was prove the earth is hard, very very hard.

Are you guys trying to tell me that the earth really is round? My grandma Oxner told me that it is flat because the Angels stood on the four corners of the earth.

Looks like he just tied himself to a big bottle rocket. Were they really expecting a different result?

His entrance and exit to my consciousness were covered by the same video.

Even I could determine the outcome on that one. What was he thinking? They had the blastoff figured out just not the landing.

I learned flying isn't that difficult, it's the landing that will get you.

He died doing something he loved. He took chances, sometimes that "chance" turns in to "stuff happens".

I hope he was unconscious as was suspected. If not, he sure didn't feel anything.

I saw a video purporting to be this crash, and the parachute flew out as soon as he took off. If it really was the correct video he was doomed from the get go.
