A few days ago the story popped up on a news feed, it seems the FAA had issues with him killing himself on public land. So they had to move the show to some private land… ---

The Earth can’t be flat, it has cats living on it and they haven’t pushed everything off. ---

Oxygen is also an oxidising agent and can be corrosive. ---

That rocket must be a work of devil. If god would like human to fly, he would give him wings. 😏 But seriously now, if it isnt a joke, I dont know what it is. Stupidity can have some limits right? Right? Oh no, It have no limits! 😂 ---

But I can’t help wonder if “things” will keep delaying the launch, until people kinda puts it out of their minds and he quietly can slip away and wipe the sweat of he brow saying " man I really dodged that bullet, how could I have been so stupid" ---

That is what I was thinking. 🙄 Maybe the science he had to accidentally do to build the rocket showed him that it was dangerous…🤣 ---

Yeah if this goes off, it will be a very nice explosion and then people will flock to get the bits as souvenirs, and yes that includes body parts… ---

You just cant protect everyone from truly their own making. Government stepped in, but maybe this guy have laws in disregard just now and planing to secretly launch it to prove that its flat. 🤔 I think we will heard about him more.
