He makes it into space and then ends up dying in a plane crash. Bummer.

[nickcarraway]

Remember when he killed his wife?

[Jhadur]

Wearing a red shirt?

[mass55th]

But was he vaccinated?

[naturalman1975]

At least he got to go into space before he died. I’d like to do that too.

[Sacajaweau]

What are the chances...

[plain talk]

De Vries, co-founder of a tech company, traveled Oct. 13 aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard spacecraft, spending more than 10 minutes in space after launching along with Shatner and others aboard a ship built by Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin company.

De Vries was an instrument-rated private pilot, and Fischer owned a flight school. Authorities have not said who was piloting the small plane.

Unfortunately it happens all too often this time of year.
Private Aircraft, warm days and cool nights equals condensed water vapor in the fuel tanks.
The engine quits due to water in the fuel line on full power climb out at low altitude.
Without enough airspeed or altitude to make an emergency landing they crash.

Sounds like they want it be Shat’s fault, heh.

Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode where three astronauts went up in space. When they came down, they started disappearing. The final astronaut speculated that they had encountered “something up there” that didn’t want them to come back to Earth, and was coming after them.

Never wear a red shirt around Kirk:

I found it most interesting that he was the CEO of a software company that specialized in “clinical research”. Hmmm.
Were they crunching numbers on the vax injuries?

“... De Vries co-founded Medidata Solutions, a software company specializing in clinical research, and was the vice chair of life sciences and health care at Dassault Systemes, which acquired Medidata in 2019...”

Two expert pilots on board. Make one wonder if this was accidental.
