The Mysterious "Lost Cosmonaut" Recording | Random Thursday 

DivinityOfBLaze damn

It was super sad when she yelled talk. You could hear how scared she was

i heard Pozhalasta.. as her last words this is tragic

@@niccoramos7965 Yeah "please". Though her pronunciation is really off... kind of sounds like a foreigner trying Russian. We don't really have accents in Russian so much as "wrong" ways to pronounce stuff. I guess if this is fake, that's more evidence into the fake pile. If not then just sad.

@@DivinityOfBLaze ive been to Russia and i can say that accent is quite different from the usual Russian accent. its like Romance language accent actually has some Italian on her intonations

Agreed I honestly can't think of a worser way to go.

well, it doesn't make it any better, but she didn't die in space suffocating, she burned to death inside Earth's atmosphere

@@jyro1072I don't think that's who he/she was talking about.

@@jyro1072 Ohh well that's a relief!

@@jyro1072 Yeh, except the girl speaking on the recording never went into space, let alone died there. She was the sister of the Italian brothers who made that recording.

I thought this too!

maybe it was cold and the heartbeat slowed down? I only know this happens to cold-blooded animals, so no idea if it makes sense for a warm-blooded dog

Russian dog different

Woof Woof.

It maybe slowed, film degrades over time.

the fact that this is probably fake doesnt mean it didnt happen with someone else. The USSR definitely suffered incidents with it cosmonauts that we never found out about.

Look up penguin mating and lower the pitch

@@waNErBOY With no evidence, you're basically making up fan fiction, then.

@@shuthemoody since when is the KGB deleting all negative docs about them a fan fiction?

@@waNErBOYDo you have any evidence they deleted evidence about this particular story? Ok, then. I didn't think so. Because there's a crap ton of evidence that says this is a hoax, like the basic fact that it could not have happened due to the radio blackout. Use your brain.

Seriously, you think it's more horrifying if it's covered up? I suspect it makes absolutely no difference to the one that died in space. They are kind of over that stuff now. ;-) Now to the families, not so much.

@@MrJdsenior I suspect that you don't understand the concept of time and how people lose interest in things said months ago.

@@-eternal Temporal nature is known to me, at least as far as it can be. You suspect wrongly. Also, typically, YT commenters ARE still interested in replies to comments left, even from long ago. Apparently you just have a VERY short attention span, becoming more and more typical unfortunately. ;-)

@@MrJdsenior Attention is given to the most insignificant matters, this does not support that a strong mind is behind at play. Sadly, this is becoming more and more common. :^(

Not bad ;-)

LOL

They named the first female Kerbal after her. Very cool

Russians are wonderful. Such. hardened people.

Made my day, thanks!

Yeah! Look at how the Soviets won World War 2, with women and children digging tank barricades by hand. Those women had to be tough.

Thank you!!

Thank you for your comment about the recording that sounded like an Italian trying to speak Russian. Another comment said their sister was studying Russian at the time.

I agree - I noticed non native accent too

I am a native speaking russian and I heard not a single trace of any accent in this recordings. I think it is a bit of a stretch. The problem is that the quality is so horribly bad that you can hear anything if you put your mind to it.

@@Sioolol That's not the first time someone objected to the accent. Also, the line about the signal getting weaker without a doppler shift is suspect.

She landed on her personal parachute

They invited her for dinner

@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 Bet that's not all they invited her for ....

Yeah, it was debunked.

So a Russian ground based radar tracking system reported an unmanned launch going out of control. Must have happened hundreds of times.

Every single government is hiding stuff. A lot of stuff

@@billpugh58 it’s happened a lot of times, but only reported a couple times. Gotta love governments 🙄

Yup.

To me it sounds phony, like a household toy drum beat

my theory is that the weird beeping was the "low oxygen" alarm, hence he gasps for air once that alarm goes off

Not really lmao

​@@barkpeeler2000Yeah the "heartbeat" sounds fake to me. But the breathing accompanied by the weird beeping is the most disturbing out of all the recordings. I really hope it was a hoax or something.

Fucking chills from the first audio

Hopefully they were eventually picked up by the Galactica on it's way here....

I am super curious about the SOS ("save our ship"), because in America, we use Mayday for air disasters (planes, zeppelins, blimps, helicopters). But do astronauts, cosmonauts, or other countries in air trouble? But i agree that whatever the signal was, having it move away and fade out spells disaster.

Desyat'… Devyat'… Vosem'… You wait, shivering with excitement and fear in your seat. *Sem'… Shest'… Pyat'…* You feel the rumbling of the engines under you. You watch the window in front, staring into the bright, blue sky. *Chetyre… Tri… Dva…* You begin to brace. *Odin… Vosplameneniye!* Suddenly, there is a pressure placed against your body as the rocket begins to shoot of the ground. The capsule starts shaking violently. You continue to stare out the window. Blue sky. You are now leaving Earth's atmosphere. The G-force of the upward movement has pushed you into your seat. You can’t even move your head. Even with the discomfort that feels like you’re about to die, you are not concerned. You have been trained well and, after all, you are literally leaving the planet you have called home for your entire life, so it’s bound to be a bumpy ride. You can’t wait to enter space for the first time in human history. Such an achievement is hard to grab, yet you did. Then, after around eight minutes, the shaking stopes. You are now able to move. The G-force once pushing down on you ceases entirely. Looking out the window ahead, you notice that the blue of the sky has been replaced with the darkness of space. Nothing but an abyssal void stretching for trillions of kilometres without end. Without any other object in sight. You look to your left and right. You can still see the curvature of your home. The point where the atmosphere that once protected you turns into the void. There is no sound, no movement, no weight. Nothing. However, after the majesty of floating in zero gravity eventually leaves you, you sense that something is wrong. Why can’t you see the Earth anymore? You should be orbiting, shouldn’t you? That is when you make the grim discovery. You start to fill with panic as you scan through each and every window separating you from the vacuum of space, and you see nothing but the dark abyss. The Earth is behind you, but there are no windows to see. You can’t be still moving? It’s hard to tell, but you aren’t taking any chances. You begin to try and manually steer the craft, as the automatic systems aren’t. But, no matter how far you turn, the view doesn’t change. Your windows continue to be filled with the black expanse of nothing you’re headed for. The booster systems that turn you have failed. “Beep, beep, beep… Beeeep, beeeep, beeeep… Beep, beep, beep…” You send out the tell-tale notes of dots and dashes that call for help. “S.O.S.” Frantically, you send the message back the way you came. Over and over and over again. “Beep, beep, beep… Beeeep, beeeep, beeeep… Beep, beep, beep…” You begin to cry. You’re terrified. You can’t turn the craft in either direction. All you can go is away from your home. Outwards into emptiness. You send an audio message, but there is no response. Just the white noise of static. At this point, you know you are going to die. It’s only a matter of time. Still, you send the S.O.S. message. You think of your family at home. Your partner, your parents, your children. Eventually, you give up. You scream and yell and cry, faced with your own mortality. You float in the middle of your capsule, your tears floating in droplets around you. Eventually, you begin the feel the effects of carbon dioxide poisoning. You feel tired, dizzy, soar. You are also dehydrated. You have a headache. You look out the window. All you see is the cold, dark, black, endless expanse of space you’re travelling through. Finally, your heavy eyelids close and you fall into unconsciousness . You died in your sleep, suffocating on your own carbon dioxide after three days travelling through space. Forever lost in space, your name was forgotten to history. You never existed. Your body remains floating in your spacecraft. You were the first person in space, and the first person to die in space. You stood on the edge of the abyss and fate pushed you in.

@@juliao1255 I think it was mose code that the signal was getting weaker as it flew to deep space..😳 Of all the stories told THIS is the one'a I'd pray is not REAL!🙏😢 Just to imagine a poor soul stuck in one'a those thangs floating away knowing they were lost forever....always bring a tear to my eyes!😳😕😢 in a situation like THAT.. All you can do is open the hatch(if possible) and end it quick vs having time to think of whats coming just waiting for DEATH. . Lord don't let that be true!🙏🙏🙏

Yeah, that has always bothered me A LOT too.

I recently learned that poor Laika died in the capsule after "only" about five hours.

To give you some peace of mind, I think the oxygen would deplete and the dog would have lost conciousness.. better than starving for days.

@Joe Bland OK Mr emo edge lord.

Joe Bland thx for the existential crisis

I think she was asking if she was gonna crash and no one was answering her!

Kolín?

I am Czech and yes, "Ozvi se!" means Answer me or just telling someone to respond back

It makes absolutely no sense in Russian. As a native speaker, I can hardly understand half of what was said.

@@vlc-cosplayer No, because babushka's marinara would be extremely slav and not much Italian

@@richardmillhousenixon Can't say Nonna either cause that would be too Italian. I think Grandma balances it out.

Not sure; the sound quality is too low. More strange thing is the way it's spoken: too slow, larger pauses between the words, and the words together don't make perfect sentences. However, all these factors could be more usual back in times of analogue radio communication.

@@e.s.6275 also reentering the atmosphere under g forces and extreme stress, in this hypothetical situation her capsule is burning up to boot Heat exaustion, g forces, stress Or its also a haox. The soviet union had a lot of control around space missions and covering up their failures. You dont get the first mam to space without trying first is what im saying. Or the first space station, maybe they covered up a failure or two there as well. Because that does not build confidence in the people or their space program.

How about they recorded voice over legit audio?

shalvius Were would they come from? Why would the brothers care?

@@samh3805 I mean, it's possible to do this way right? I speak Russian fluently and as others mentioned I can also confirm that voice doesn't sound like native speaker.

Asking Mr. Van Alstyne : Could there be a compound "skip" that would give the false speed and fading to a welder on a hotline as was suggested below?

I'd like to weigh in myself... I think it's fake. He mentions an earlier recording where it sounds like the signal is drifting off into interplanetary space... Um... No. The amount of potential a rocket has is measured in m/s of "delta V". Basically, how many meters per second a rocket can change its velocity by. To get to low earth orbit, a rocket needs to reach 8,000 meters per second (not accounting for energy lost from gravity and drag). The delta V required to reach escape velocity however is 11,200 meters per second... You don't just pull 3,200 meters per second of delta V out of your ass, especially not on accident, and especially not when you've BARELY managed to get the first satellites and people into space. You'd need a rocket overbuilt by 40 or 50%, and if the soviets HAD that, they would've EASILY won the space race. If you can escape earth in a capsule, it's not THAT much harder to go from that to actually landing on the moon. Getting to space is pretty difficult... Like... REALLY difficult. You simply don't accidentally fly off into interplanetary space. If it were THAT EASY that you could do it completely on accident, we'd be living on space stations right now. I'm not going to do it because I'm incredibly tired right now and just want to go to sleep, but I'd be willing to bet if you applied Tsiolkovsky's rocket equation to the Vostok rocket, you'd likely get a delta V readout around 9,500 meters per second, which when you account for air resistance and gravity on the way up, is only just enough to reach low earth orbit, and not much further beyond that (certainly not sounding like disappearing into the infinite void). Not to dispute your point directly Bill, you know a lot more about radio than I do. However, these guys were ALSO good at the subject, and likely knew exactly what to do to make fake recordings sound realistic. Could it be true?... I SUPPOSE, but the "flying off into space" implication has me thinking not. These 2 guys were good with radios... their WEAKNESS is spaceflight. I don't think it was conceivable at the time for a manned capsule to reach escape velocity.

None. Soviet regime collapsed and new government did everything to discredit communist regime by opening archives and venting all dirty laundry, including the biggest disaster of moon rocket explosion which killed several dozens personnel including some top ranking ones.

I have heard from other, interviewed native speakers that the translation is wrong. I mean, the counting is clear. But the other stuff about fire and heat is fuzzy. Perhaps you can listen to it again, while not looking at the translation, and confirm or deny the translation? Just your own, personal opinion?

@@bmobert Another native speaker here! It's not exactly wrong... it sounds strange and not natural. Like heavy accented speech.

I'm a native speaker too. So, let's debate it. Did you attend an army? Did you know about how they use words, etc? Pretty convincing for me. Especially when there a still a lot of "strange" stuff at Russia at 2019. So it's very, very, very, very possible. Don't forget that Korolev was in jail, and "police" broke his jaw...

I thought everyone in Russia is robot?

@@FelixFonRihhofen one problem, though: I've never heard such an accent. First time I hear someone pronouncing words this way. Very unnerving.

She probably wasn't a cosmonaut. Probably a test subject, like the dog. A farm girl with Down's syndrome or something like that. She wasn't expected to survive, but she could never know that. (Also, it's probably a hoax.)

@@kaistzar2831 well they did that with a dog, it would be cruel and cold but pretty logical in a scientific matter to put the very 1st human out there who doesnt know the consequences of disaster it could happen.

Perhaps with the weak radio signal it was difficult to use more complex words? It is difficult to understand what is said even now

@@bigelectriccat1 you're joking, but if this audio was real, it would make a lot of sense that they put a common person in a capsule that was never intended to come back and didn't have any knowledge of that. It sure sounds like shit Soviet Union would do. And, well, I don't know, but maybe isn't there a chance that at some moment before the capsule reentered atmosphere it would get hot and it would still be possible to send radio signals? Depending on the angle? Well, I don't know anything about that...

@@alfredosilvaneto ...Yes, you don't know anything about this. Radio trasnmissions durng re-entry to Earth's atmosphere were impossible (and still are). These "recordings" were a hoax.... And the "desperate" side at the time was the US who lagged far behind the Soviet space program. That can explain why this "recordings" hoax was made by a scared Italian family. SCARY!! LOL.

@@Coffeebean1985 This recording has been thoroughly debunked many times over even since the 60's due to so very many basic as well as complex factors. The suspiciously Italian accent, poor grammar, lack of actual professional phrases and communication, that re-entry communication is impossible even to this day, why none of the far more sophisticated round-the-clock funded-as-matters-of-critical-national-security stations and centers picked it up around the world, how ridiculously intense and strict the selection process for cosmonauts were, the propaganda disaster this would be for the Soviets if it were real, and many more!

My theory would be that the brothers have a Italian Sister that studied Russian. And in the 60's recording, they have a very, very, very old microphone.

The most plausible hypothesis I have heard. She mentioned something to the affect of "the left". Which to me makes me believe she could see something then answered "yes". She was either hallucinating or someone was talking to her.

@@loub1105 They only picked up one side of the transmissions since the other was being sent from earth. Most probable cause I imagine.

This is what I was thinking without any real knowledge of aviation world though. It just makes more sense.

no, it's a hoax, she speaks Russian with a clear accent

If it was real, this seems like the most plausible explanation.

I see fire, is that a bad thing? Hello?

Dude, she's stressed out, things dont correlate well in that kind of situation

@@chronos1081 True but just saying that Gus Grissom's last words in the Apollo fire were not "I see fire in the capsule, is it dangerous?" Of course it was. Astronauts and cosmonauts were all a cut above us regular peeps, stressed out or no. I don't mean to detract from the post-modern theatre that this hoax provides, just bear in mind that it is one.

If it is real, you also have to take into consideration how things get lost in translation between Russian and English.

3dgun nah, she speaks with accent, this is just most likely a fake.

Be a believer. It’s more fun.

As a native Russian I’ve never heard an accent like that on a native person. Sounds like a hoax to me. Or a prank someone played on the brothers.

Mmmm covering fake stories, sometimes it's the signs of running out of topics.

damn how old are you?

Given the way the Soviet Union worked, it's not impossible that the tape is real, and the speaker sounds "wrong" because Russian was not her first language, even if her papers identified her as a Great Russian

@Rios Salvajes definitely a native Italian speaker, not Russian.

@MrZapparin> There have been Soviet Union leaders who came from all kinds of far off places There was no soviet leader that I'm aware of that had an accent from any language that was not part of the soviet union. Stalin had a Georgian accent, but Georgia was part of the union for example.

Who's to say it was Russian at all. Perhaps another country wanted in on it but they had to borrow Soviet equipment and she was responding to the Soviet ground control. Why they would do that, I don't know, there just could be loads of reasons why she didn't sound Russian.

Actually it can be just a rural accent

Throughout the entire transmission she throws out the numbers 32, 41, 45 and 50 while talking about how she feels hot.

"On the other hand, we do have the final words of cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov, who died when his faulty capsule re-entered. " == That was a long-standing rumor based on a guy who served at an NSA [not CIA] listening post in Turkey, 'Winslow Peck'. It was marginally plausible until very recently. Recent new Moscow-source verified documents have proven that the ‘Komarov self-sacrifice’ story is bogus, invented by a British author a few years ago to sell books. Komarov did not expect to die, and still go - it’s a made-up myth. Here’ the proof: www.amazon.com/Soyuz-1-Death-Vladimir-Komarov-ebook/dp/B08777Y32S/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=asif+siddiqi&qid=1594740942&sr=8-4 I’ve waited for more than half a century to read this report, and often despaired that, as memories and records rotted away, the secrets would be lost to history while the misleading myths and misrepresentations thrived across the internet. But a dogged, insightful researcher has found and properly exploited the critical records and recollections, and now has produced the long-awaited consummate authoritative report. That he also was once gracious enough in another book to credit a book of mine for sparking his original fascination with the historical specialization of ‘sleuthing Soviet space secrets’ [still a target-rich environment] is awesomely rewarding, personally. A dream come true - so let THIS report in turn serve as a shining example to ignite flames of dogged curiosity in a new generation of ‘space sleuths.’ The future of spaceflight deserves the truth about the past, and the past has taught us that we never should wholly depend on official voices to provide completely authentic narratives of past triumphs and tragedies. Without such experience-derived wisdom those who follow us may not be adequately equipped to measure up to the judgment needed to match the cosmic choices and challenges of future endeavors. Digging out these secrets and separating them from the popular but misdirecting fantasies and legends is not mere idle curiosity, it is the key to enabling the spaceflight future we all dream of. Help lay such a firm foundation, and even if you never leave the ground yourself, you will strengthen the launching pad of those that will. One of the most shocking revelations in the book is that the flaw in the parachute system was probably due to fabrication and installation errors in the space craft that had been duplicated in the second vehicle, Soyuz-2, that was to dock to Soyuz-1. Had the multiple unrelated failures on Soyuz-1 =NOT= caused the cancellation of Soyuz-2, it would have been launched, and BOTH crews on landing would have died. Imagine the horror of the remaining craft in orbit, with Bykovsky alone, AFTER the first had crashed, as the team had at least 24 hours to imagine what they might do to avoid the same fate -- and they couldn't.

Komarov believed he was gonna die before he even left the earth. That whole Soyuz 1 mission was a disaster waiting to happen. Komarov was supposed to do an EVA transfer to Soyuz 2 (which was taking off a day later, but ultimately got cancelled) but as he pointed out in training, the porthole was too small to fit through when fully suited up. He really wanted to postpone the mission, but knew that if he cancelled his flight, then his friend Yuri Gagarin would be sent to die instead. There were all manner of problems from the start (a solar panel failed to deploy, meaning there was a lack of power) and it was miraculous that he even managed to guide the capsule into a re-entry position given that he had to manoeuvre to the right angle in darkness. The main parachute failed to open, so the craft was travelling ridiculously fast when it crashed. His body was just a burnt crisp measuring 31 inches long. (A photo exists). He'd apparently requested that he had an open coffin for his funeral because he wanted people to see what the authorities had done to him. The people at the US listening post in Turkey claim that one of the last things he said was "They've killed me".

Peter Boyarsky Is it possible to admit those weird time, accent, etc, due to being really hot? Having little oxygen? Fearing you’re going to die? Or even due to her training making it important to not put much emotion into her speaking?

I wonder if perhaps it was a Chinese ( or someone from another country) women but speaking in Russian to make it seem like it was a Russian program if anyone was to find out. The US and USSR in a Cold War trying their hardest to get to space to be the first. While the focus was on them, a different country comes out and wins the space race. Idk. Just a though after you stated she sounded odd or with an accent.

Peter Boyarsky Maybe she worked the Minsk metro for a while.

I heard to italian brothers recorded it and got a woman who spoke russian and faked it they apparently addmitted to faking it

Excellent! I didn’t think of that, and why not? From any communist country! And if it was a early test they might not have wanted to risk an important or well known astronaut. You’ve convinced me, I’m sure it’s real.

I am sad for Laika, but, does being a victim make him a hero?

@@juliao1255 Yes that's exactly why she's a hero.

Only issue with it being genuine is that people have noted the woman speaks with an Italian accent. Once more, the sister of the guys who recorded the audio just so happened to be learning Russian at that time.

If they wouldn't have covered up all there crash's

Not to mention we already know of cases where cosmonauts have died in reentry, for example Vladimir Komarov, so why would the soviet government have hidden one event while not hiding the events of Soyuz 1? Occam's razor suggests its fake

To go further; even if modern words were used, the accent is way off. Like I commented in the general thread, it sounds like someone trying to speak Russian for the first time. The pronunciation was butchered to hell and back.

It's not fake. She was a CIA agent who pretended to double cross and let herself get killed by her pupil in order ro save her nation. She was a true patriot.

I would disagree about plamaya, it is commonly used by firefighters for example, though it looks like fake to me aswel, sounds like she is not a native speaker.

If it makes you feel any better, it seems to be fake. That is, the recording is not that of a cosmonaut. Whether it is a straight up hoax or just an airplane pilot is not certain. Though someone mentioned that the sister of the guys who recorded the audio was learning Russian and that the voice sounds like an Italian speaking Russian.

Since she was talking about how hot it was, I always presumed she was reporting on the temperature inside the capsule. 32 degrees Celsius is 89.6 Fahrenheit, so at that temperature it would feel hot inside the capsule. In the full video, she also says "Forty five" and "Fifty" (Which would be 113 Fahrenheit and 122 Fahrenheit respectively) She also says "Forty one. I feel hot!" (Forty one Celsius is 105.8 Fahrenheit) So I am of the opinion (If it is real) she was reporting internal capsule temperatures. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4tQzY-bGJek.html

That sounds great tbh. A historical fiction sort of thing.

@@alalalala57 heh... I back that 😀

This comment became genius level when he slipped in "trilogy". A single thread can indeed produce a lot of cloth in Hollywood.

Like the movie "Contact" ?

But the recordings are fake

pashalsta !! I could understand that, when I went to russia i heard that word everytime after saying spacibo, I believe it now!

Pazalusta I know russian Thanks

....."Where's the onion?..." ..."No parmesan??... ...AAaahhh....!!..."

@@STVN9111 You're being sarcastic, I hope? Hard to tell online sometrmes! This recording were debunked long ago due to multiple clear flaws and problems.

Please in Russian convinced me.

Protocols can change from mission to mission depending on various factors.

it seems real by the fact she was trying to get information. saying numbers and saying on the left and talk seems like she was trying to make adjustments.

ColinJPZ Get rekd

ColinJPZ aha, neato

@@marco3dartist Russians never say один when counting though. It's not just about protocols, it's about Russian language.

This probably should have been saved for Halloween.

Chaos X Otaku I think you're mistaking the high pitched sound which is the signal.of Spudnik 2, it sounds just like the first Spudnik earlier. The heartbeat is a low thrunming sound, like the one they record of a man's heartbeat and breaths later, you need to wear headphones and turn up your volume or you can't even hear the heartbeat.

Hells yeah

I think you would go unconscious pretty quickly

All you'd have to do is turn your oxygen supply way down and you'd just drift off....

Pretty fucking metal way to go out

I would prefer slowly falling asleep than to burn alive for seconds/minutes before dying.

lady does not have an foreing accent, the voice is not so clear but my wife whose native language is russian says it is russian, its accent is a russian accent spoken in different parts of russia

Wouldn’t put it past the Soviets putting a non Russian at risk tbh. Why risk a Russian citizen?

Michelle Charlton in the early days of CSSR, ONLY top class extremely smart 100% Russia people were allowed in the space program

Michelle Charlton cosmonauts were literally heroes in Russia and in no way would the Soviet Union “disgrace” their space program by using a Russian minority

Michelle Charlton by smart people I mean fighter pilots with thousands of hours of flight might get selected, along with elite soviet scientists or someone of that caliber

I think this sounds more likely, especially since the US program suffered a similar issue, but on earth. It also explains why there was no Ionic shielding to interfere with the radio signal, as well as why the sight of fire would panic her. She wouldn't have noted fire being present if it were, say, outside the porthole window (if there was one) while she reentered, that'd be expected, and if she saw fire inside during reentry, I sincerely doubt she'd have had time to report it! Sounds like an on-orbit accident....

This is a really good explanation, but I'm still going with it being terrestrial.

@@Corbald But then the missing Doppler effect would be unexplained. Unless she was maybe at the peak of an extremely parabolic path? And if she was so high up, it's even stranger that noone else picked up the signal. Unless the signal was directional.. Is that practical?

I think they were at the stage that they still used 100% oxygen pressurized capsules, meaning it would've completely burned up everything inside within 15 seconds.

@@Shupavin I don't think the Russians ever used 100% oxygen.

Same here. G-night from Sydney.

Good morning guys

I'm going to sleep, too...in Brooklyn, NY!

wait, how are you typing right side up?

hahaha and one day later, I too can post the same comment: "Last video of the night, time to sleep...heyoos from Melbourne, Australia. 👋"
