Space Stunts

[güttsfükk]

Astronaut Koichi Wakata, who has been living aboard the International Space Station since mid-March, has carried out a series of offbeat space experiments proposed by the Japanese public.

he experiments, which the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has dubbed “Try Zero-G,” consist mainly of physical exercises and gymnastics (including calisthenics, push-ups, flips, twirls, cartwheels, overhead soccer kicks, and swimming). In addition, Wakata folds clothes, rides a “magic carpet,” squirts water from a syringe, puts eyedrops in his eye, and attempts to propel himself through the room by flapping a fan. He also enlists the help of a fellow astronaut for some arm wrestling, hand-shaking, slap sumo, and tug of war.

I wanna play around in space, but since I can't go on my top porch because it's too high, I doubt I'd be able to go to space.

Jess!!! This is not good!! I shall take you to space. You will be just fine with me. We can play Battleships up there - it will distract you from the fact that space is much higher than your top porch!!!

Heights freak me out. I can't even go on a ferriswheel. I freak, shake like crazy and puke and that's just standing in the line. I braved my top porch before....it didn't end well so I would need a whole ton of drugs and maybe a few clubs to the head with a bat before I go anywhere near space.

Wasn't dissing anything. That's the only way you're getting me up there. Drug and beat me to the point of unconsciousness. I can't even watch planes in movies. I'm sad.
