There are lots of things that I see in my life and think, “NOPE…not for me.” None of those things even begins to approach the level of NOPE as the famed vehicle known as Sonic Wind 1, the rocket sled that Col. John Paul Stapp rode to speeds and G-loads that no living human had ever experienced in the middle 1950s. This was the type of cold war research that required people with massive smarts and massive balls to pull off. Stapp rode the sled a couple of times and defied death every time the belts were cinched down. The dude went 620+ mph on it during his last ride and that’s where this video comes from. This is the setup for that final blast (not) into oblivion.
Here’s the thing. This video is silent and in some ways it is kind of boring. But it is only boring if you do not know the context of what is happening. The rockets being pulled out of their crates, Stapp standing there talking to people, saying God knows what and somehow keeping himself from being a blithering mess before breaking Earthbound speed records that human beings had never thought of before.
Video like this is a legit window into time. It is not edited, produced or otherwise altered. This is as it was the day that Col. Stapp went rip roaring down the tracks for the final time before he retired.
It is doubtful that we could have put humans into space and ultimately to walk on the moon without brave men like Col Stapp who willingly risked his life to help scientists learn the limits of the forces we humans could tolerate.
Without courageous men like Col. Stapp, who was ready to risk his life to assist scientists in determining the limits of the forces that humans could withstand, it is highly unlikely that we would have been able to send humans into space or eventually walk on the moon.
The democrat created food crisis is going to hit you hard inthe coming months as more than 100 food plants have been burned to the ground so you have to do this ASAP!!!
