Friend,
There is a documentary movie on Amazon Prime about this guy. The title is Rocketman: Mad Mike’s Mission to Prove the Flat Earth
Watched it last year. It was interesting and leaves you wondering during the entire film if it will end with his death. He had some major mental health issues and seemed abusive to the people who helped him, but he also had a dream. His drive to find truth, even if it was a demented quest, was honorable.
Yours,

Yes it was.
Crazy how that guy was smart enough to get it to not blow on the launch, but dumb enough to di something that dangerous just for several hundred feet of altitude

Should have spent more time on that parachute system that malfunctioned during launch.

looks like he should have spent more time working on the parachute - deployed a little too early.

He didn't prove the earth is flat, but he did prove it's pretty damn hard.

I dont think he appreciated the gravity of his situation.
Posted on 2/23/20 at 7:31 am to vol-boy
Wonder if he got high enough to see the earth's curvature ?

Science is an unforgiving bitch. Only a few more to weed out.

Fail or sabotage? There were a lot of people who didn’t want him to bring back any evidence.

Still made it farther than a North Korean rocket
