Of all the Russian space explorers, Leonov has to rank foremost for courage and tenacity. He took on a job that no one had ever done, with dangers and uncertainties not faced before. He figured out a way to save himself (and probably his commander as well) using an incredibly dangerous procedure (venting pressure in a high vacuum is unbelievably risky). Their equipment was quite primitive as we know today. A man worthy of respect, even if viewed as a rival.

Not trying to hijack the thread here, but the lies of the Obama administration are recalled with the reading of this article.

The Soviet Commies covered up ALL bad news for 70 years, the only exceptions were when they couldn't.
