The Documentary Thread

claim seemed suspect since I assume 99% of people on earth have never heard of this speck of rock in the ocean, comparing it to the number of people who've been to the moon?

'tarded. There's a small hill in my backyard and less people have spent more than 1 night on that hill than have spent on that rock or the moon! 0 people. that's right, 0 people in history have ever spent more than 1 night on this hill I call "death's gaze hill of doom". and no one on earth can prove his claim wrong. It's such an insignificant thing zero evidence of any claims to the contrary exist. it's ridiculous.

It's a tiny outcrop of rock jutting out of the sea, how long a person can stay on it is determined 100% by weather patterns and luck it has nothing to do with endurance or strength of will or determination or any other factor. All this documentary can do is inform people that this "challenge" exists so it can easily be beaten by choosing the correct time of year to perform the challenge and praying that the weather holds.

Never really thought about it, but would have assumed a g-suit was part of the uniform for all fights. Although thinking about it now, I vaguely recall seeing them walking off the tarmac in their standard blue uniform, directly to the meet and greet tent.

As an aside, while the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds are great and put on an awesome show, the best performance I remember was from the Canuck Snowbirds. They have 11 planes in the air and it's just nuts. While they are still a jet team, I think their planes allow them to fly a bit slower, which is better for a ground spectator.
