Space Travel


Space. The final frontier.

Before we even get started- This is NOT the post about whether or not Trekkies can be manly. That post will come, but this is not it.

No, this post is about the amazing men (and also some very manly women) who strap themselves to giant tubes of explosives so they can go on an eight and a half minute ride straight up. Men like Buzz Aldrin (a personal hero), John Glenn, and many others who have taken the ultimate joyride.

Speaking of Buzz Aldrin, this guy is probably the Manliest Man in the world. Sure, everybody knows that he and Neil were the first two men to ever walk on the moon, but what a lot of people don't know is that YOU DON'T MESS WITH BUZZ. See, a lot of freaks don't think that humans were manly enough to fly to the moon, and the whole thing was a giant hoax. Whatever. There was one guy who was, I believe, trying to make a movie that would prove that the moon landings were faked, and he kept following the original astronauts around, badgering them, trying to get them admit that everything was a lie. Well, this loser tries to do that to Buzz
, but Buzz teaches him a valuable lesson: YOU DON'T MESS WITH BUZZ.

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQKxAqpjroo

I had to log in to watch it, but trust me, it's worth it. Buzz is about 70 when he knocks that loser out with one punch. May I be half the man that Buzz Aldrin is. Oh, and a disclaimer- All comments on the youtube page were written by 13 year olds with Tourette's Syndrome.
