Steam power didn’t kill him, the lack of a functional parachute did.

The fact that somebody this stupid lived to be 64 is an achievement in itself.

And 5,000 feet isnt space. There are better ways to get to that altitude.A quick commercial plane ride would have gotten him 6-7 times that. Hell, I live at 5,280 MSL.

The Darwin Awards are a tongue-in-cheek honor, originating in Usenet newsgroup discussions around 1985. They recognize individuals who have supposedly contributed to human evolution by selecting themselves out of the gene pool via death or sterilization by their own actions.
Liberals In a couple of decades, if left alone to their life styles, will have destroyed themselves via their abortions, drug use age, homo sexual life styles, both DNA wise and soul wise due to their stupid and terminal life choices.
The Democratic Party is rapidily morphing into the DCP/DonnerCrat Party on a daily basis.
Here we have another: Darwin Award Winner!

once saw Conan Obrien interview this guy. What sticks out in my memory is that its a miracle this guy made it into his 60s. The other is that he talked about about sex with young girls, a lot.

The Karman line at 5000 feet?
From Wikipedia: The Karman line is the altitude where space begins. It is 100 km (about 62 miles) high.

This was not Hughes’ first launch. Hughes, who believed the Earth is flat, propelled himself about 1,875 feet into the air before a hard landing in the Mojave Desert in March of 2018.

Maybe Karman was his girlfriend and the restraining order wouldn’t allow him to get within 1 mile of her. 5,280 feet.

He could have simply contracted to ride in a hot air balloon. Higher climb. Simpler and safer technology.
