Flat Earther and wannabe astronaut killed in homemade rocket

IceC0ld

and 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - here comes the CT nutjobs to say he was killed by NASA to stop him showing the truth .................................

bright enough to build a 'rocket' - but steam powered ? was it launched as per the US carriers do with jet fighters ? and if he WAS that bright, and rocket science was his thing, he had to take into account the gravitational pull of the big spherical thing he was standing on to allow him to actually break free of its bonds

yea, to my mind his particular tree didn't go all the way to the top

and much as I would not wish death on anyone, he did seem increasingly crazy as this project progressed, and so maybe there is a death wish, and he's hoping to generate interest via that

TL:DR

not too sure exactly what was going on in his head, but it did him no good :o(
