Yeah, GoPro would be pretty cool for something like that. You get a whole bunch of footage. Make a whole video about it, you know, from the trip down there, and the prepping for the jump, and then walking on the plane, and then flying up into the right altitude, and then watching people hook up and jump out of the door, the side door, and you're finally new jumping out the side door, and then the free fall for, I don't know, maybe 50 yards, something like that, and then the parachute opening up, and then you're just showing a layout of the land as you're floating down to the planet. That would be cool. KB0MAI. This is repeater stage... Well, the trip down, you know, I mean, after three million miles, the drive down is just the drive down. There's plenty of road video. I'm not taking any special route, but yeah, that's what it's going to be. I'm going to have some of the, you know, getting ready to do it, doing a pre-jump training, and walking out to the airplane, and getting packed in there, and actions in the aircraft. One of the big reasons I wanted to film it is my family has watched me jump before, but they're standing on the ground. There's a couple hundred dudes jumping out of airplanes. They're like, yeah, he's one of them up there somewhere, but they've never seen it from my perspective, and to me, that's the crazy part of it. And the part that, from the very first one, it'll be the same on this one. The thing that, to me, is most striking is when you're in the aircraft, it's just nothing but noise. You know, you've got the engines, the wind, people yelling commands, and once you step out, you go from just pandemonium on the noise spectrum to almost total quiet with nothing but just the air going past you. And yeah, I don't know if I can put it up on QRZ, but I'll definitely put it up. I'm definitely going to share it. And it's definitely going up, Brian. And once I get it all squared away and figured out, I'll tell everybody where it is, because it's one of those things that you don't expect a guy that's turning 69 years old three days after the jump to be doing.
