Blue Origin flight with William Shatner

[ChicagoFats]

Went off well. Wathing them land and subsequently trying to open the capsule and it kind of looks like a shit show.

They land in the middle of the desert and it probably took them 10 minutes just to reach the capsule. The passengers sat inside the whole time they were waiting and then an awkward video of Bezos tapping on the shell.

Its taken them another 5-10 minutes to get the whole door open.

Kinda weird.

I'll ad that Shatner looks incredible for 90 years old. Full homo

Was he in it?

Yeah Shatner was one of the passengers. He handled it no problem.

Beat me to it

Yeah Shatner was one of the passengers. He handled it no problem.

Equally impressive that he walked up 8 stories to get in. Man doesn’t age.

That flight was bad ass and how emotional he was afterwards. Borderline speechless with some amazing words.

I wish when the zoomed out he was sitting on a shitter

Beat me to it

It was just such an obvious reply. This popped in my head just as quick.




There is a Family Guy reference for everything.

Shat says he saw death on his trip…

Shat says he saw death on his trip…

I'm guessing at his age, he sees it everytime he looks over his shoulder.

Shatner was more compelling and interesting than the flight. Bezos can only pretend to be in the same class as Elon Musk.

First time I ever watched William was on an old episode of The Twilight Zone, then you young guys wouldn't know about that. We only had 2 TV stations in 1954 but the nightly lineup was great. One of my favorites was Amos n Andy. I watched the very first episode of Gunsmoke, all the old 30s sci fi series like Flash Gordon and others. Saturdays was non stop good series. I hated to see 5pm come round because the news came on and it just ruined an otherwise great day. Come to think of it today is about the same..

I was born in 53, but I grew up watching all of those awesome shows. They sure don't make them like that anymore. Not just nostalgia, but fact. TV shows today are cranked out like cookies and they go stale within a month. Shitty concepts, shitty scripts and shitty actors ads up to one big shit show!

Texaco Star and Milton Berle was gut busting......Ladies and Germs ;0) It was mid 70s when Benny Hill arrived to American TV and I still watch it on youtube it's so damned funny.
