A flying pecker. Boy, that fits.

Seems like the engineering and fabrication for that shape would be more of a challenge than other basic shapes. I doubt it was done by accident. Do you reckon he paid extra for this feature?

Maybe they hired a "head engineer"?

I thought that this was just a joke until I Googled it.

Yeah it鈥檚 real, supposedly started by a guy protesting the existence of billionaires. 聽How much money Bezos has doesn鈥檛 bother me, but I don鈥檛 like the guy because of the deplatforming BS and Amazon trying to put the whole world out of business. 聽I don鈥檛 give them a dime. 聽

Congrats to Jeff Bezos...I guess聽 He managed to churn labor arbitrage to fund a fun day while doing less than Yuri Gagarin and Alan Shepard did 60 years ago.聽 Richard Branson did even less a couple of days ago.

I'm not unimpressed by the engineering and manpower it took to make this happen because I know it's amazing, but I also don't see it as a visionary thing for billionaires to try and redo everything done six decades ago with flasher tech.聽 Wake me up when we can send ordinary folks on orbital flights for a day, or on cruises to the exosphere on a moon and back loop.

It was the world's most expensive drop ride.

Yeah. I was kinda hoping that one of his testicles would explode due to lack of conditioning.
