Very stimulating to watch. I wonder what the vibrations are like on that thing?
It’s a pp
I’m so happy for William Shatner going to space, hearing him in amazement is a moment I wanted to cry that he got this chance. Star Trek has inspired the generation of creators it’s inspired us all
Can’t stand that OLD show !
@Mike Booth go tell someone who cares about your opinion
Right about then Bill was yelling into the radio Scotty quick beam me up LMFAO
Lucy in the sky….https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB3uVARNhmM&ab_channel=OikocOylj1
Mark Sargent….what are you waiting for? Somebody knows who I’m talking about?
Who’s next, Patrick Stewart?
Maybe Harrison Ford can pass the physical. Or sign a stack of waivers as tall as that ship.
AT&T SUCKS
It’s a giant Dil…dho
Can we stop saying they are going to “space” when that’s not really what they’re doing…
We live in a globe. They never made it past the firmament.
Don’t let the Klingons get ya !
Am I the only one finding this sort of stuff sickening, the number of poor people suffering and the number of lives adversely affected by Covid and you have the rich and famous taking billion dollar Jollies to space and for what reason? Must be nice to be so privileged! I just feel sorry for the homeless people that missed out on meals today that some of that money could have paid for.
Exactly ! I celebrate every time rich Trash dies !
The sperm head has detach its tail and has impregnated the firmament.. just a wild perspective view from earth 🌍…
One more astronaut 😁 with ” Bezos licence”
what’s up with bezos and peckers
People believe this? Of course they do. Lol
Dumb sh1t for the masses
🍆💥
All fake….lets go Brandon!
Lame coverage
I wish my dad was still here to see this, we watched Star Trek together when I was a little kid… we only had a 13″ black and white t.v. with rabbit ears and tons of foil but I’ll never forget getting to spend that time with my dad.
Love cgi
Viajar de las estrellas GOOD RIGHT en Texas muy maravillosa love this photos sending love
I would have loved to see a camera inside the capsule!
This is the first one that actually makes sense. Of COURSE William Shatner should go to space, finally. Very fitting and long overdue. lol I wanna know if anyone called him Captain Kirk while he was up there?
Good for him Captain we salute you
So it’s not space space then
“Behold, the flying marital aid…..”
I want to see REAL footage…NOT cut away takeoff stuff, NOT cutaway landing stuff, NOT super zoom close up on while it falls from ‘space’ only to cut away to gopro camera footage of actually landing from 5 mile away…..WAKEY WAKEY
Look at that 🍌 go! 😂
Wondering what Lenard would have thought about this. Congratulations captain
Wonder if he did the Spock hand gesture to honor Spock?
He did…when he got out pretty cool of him.
Seems like I have a dirty mind or genius one to realize the shape of the rocket represent..
I mean, the competitor have car manufacturers business where he arranged the modEl name of each car to be s..
And this one, literally showing it to the world
Wish the NBC commentators would shut up
🎶” space may be the final frontier but it’s made in a Hollywood basement”🎶
Well done Kirk, the flea-hop heard around the world!
Well done Bill. Best wishes. You have done brilliantly. Love and best wishes.
It’s heading to Uranus…
“I’ll give it a ride” – Elton John
😄😄😄 I’m sure he would…. or should I say ‘WOOD’
Why does that thing look like a……👀😳
sigh never mind…😒
*Grow up people and stop being emotionaly driven.* These leaders don’t want to solve problems they want to run away and doing the same again… *We are were leaders leads us, change the leaders change the world.*
*Yeah things float in space we get it…* even a 90 years wize old human…
The cost of this only zero g trip could feed lot of homless people, orphans, save forests… renew roads…
*Dreaming it’s ok, but there is some real realies down here.*
Is it a… KAHN!!!
Really cool to see the Capt. head off to space after growing up watching him as a kid on Star Trek! Bravo and Cheers!
Shatner went up 60 miles and then came down. That’s hardly what could be called space travel. It does however show that our atmosphere is very thin.
talk about a pocket rocket lol
All aboard the D1LD0 rocket…anyone who understands aerodynamics knows this design makes zero sense and this is a joke.
The new meaning of word “crotch Rocket”..
Hollywood has done it again 🤦🏿
God is laughing at your foolishness.
Read Psalm 2.
Launching your ba’al shafts(phallic)
towards His habitation.
Just so you know, men(mankind)
your modern-day tower of babel will
never reach the throne of the Almighty.
More like William Shaftner with that flying Johnson
Actually didn’t travel in space… Only the edge of our atmosphere. Big difference.
To boldy go where Alan Shepard has gone 60 years before…
Alright enough of this crap
he heard about the two meteors and was like IM OUT!!
from 0:10 to 0:17 that is totally CGI…who they trying to fool?
I was hoping a guy in a rubber lizard suit would try to fight him up there…
They must be laughing from another galaxy. Reminds me of the Austin Powers joke. Lol
Earth’s atmosphere has lost its virginity!
🤣🤣🤣
Booooo…👎 help people in need…
Instead of play the “I’m rich, look at me” card
A Yamaha image will not pop up in mind anymore when I hear the saying “Crotch Rocket” !
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now one of these billionaires needs to take one of the leaders of the Flat Earth movement up there. But I suppose even then they’d come up with some b******* explanation about how the windows distort the view or something
No rocket exhaust. Green screen?
Ha ha Blue Origen go Brrrrrrrr
Well, I guess we can’t knock a naturally efficient design that gets all concerned parties completely there and back again as quickly and safely as possible and is, in due time, totally reusable to boot. []:-)
Picard is 😠
Who the cares! Billionaires playing space rockets, while we have a lot of work to do here on this earth. Wip–dee-doo-da!
Just looks like a giant phallic object flying into the air.😁
Probably on purpose.. signifying they want to penetrate the mystery of space.
I wonder if they read these comments to see who’s on to them & who’s not., catching their drift…their subtle intent. Think they are sadistic comedians at times.
and a Canadian!
It’s reciprocating and they been practicing over and over and Shattners been goin in and out.
YT KIDS, and their very ignorant comments, dumb and ignorane now has a new meaning when it comes to YT!
LMFAO
You mean coolest person ever to go
Not even space, low earth orbit. More falsehoods in a flying phallus.
It’s amazing to think that cgi is still so crappy in 2021
Even more amazing that they’re still trying to pass that off as a rocket landing😂🤣
It has a long, smooth shaft…
More than that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
So none of the designers ever thought maybe the shape of the rocket might look like a giant d!@@o. No one at all
Well how else are they going to get a space vessel to penetrate the final frontier 😏
Shoulďve called it enterprise hahahaha
BLUE BALLS ORIGIN …
just a publicity stunt with a dying actor. lol.
Im going to watch SPACE X videos now…
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWTiAyrU4fTtm6-rEXuN_7A
William Shatner is one of the coolest guys ever.
Wonder if he saw any Klingons up there 😏
They said Brian Laundrie’s ridiculous horseshoe bald head lit up like a beacon from their amazing view.
Total fake. What a POs. Motion graphic
Is the rocket sponsored by viagra
So the man that sees the gremlin rippin the wing n engine apart on his 1st flight flys again…
Fake news.
No live images, bit weird. I guess nasa will have to censor any images that might show the earth is FLAT.
RIP Leonard Nemoy. He would have loved going into space with William Shatner. I still can’t believe Shatner had the balls to go into space at 90. Live Long and Prosper. 🖖
so correct me if im wrong.. but this is basically just the most expensive amusment park ride ever created, right? What purpose does it serve other than giving rich people a few minutes of fun? Like maybe Blue Origin engineers are getting telemetry data from the flights or something, but this feels like a joke when you have SpaceX putting people into orbit. Half the people on earth already have a PP that goes up and down..
Of course he adapted well, that’s crazy to doubt otherwise his success in the ultra-altitude experience, even if senior commissioned having spent most of his life in space…right?, he’s evolved into it. To bad his remaining missions crew couldn’t of joined in for adoring, in devoted fan’s everyone of Star-Trek.
Mission complete & Shatner whom space-bound back farther than I can remember pulled it off again. 👍
Greta hates this
I bet this rocket burns viagra pills for fuel
He should have been dressed in his Star Trac uniform with all accessories,
A joyride to space. Why worry about what’s going on here on earth? Pathetic.
Unbelievable how dumbed down this world is to believe this.
Spock should have been there RIP
He’s now shatnered in two worlds…
Let’s go Brandon
Shatner is still crushing life at 90 years old! Coolest grampy I’ve ever seen! 👨🏻🚀
