    So, a few years later we have the predictable ending.

    'Mad' Mike Hughes dies after crash-landing homemade rocket


    With the help of his partner Waldo Stakes, Hughes was trying to reach an altitude of 5,000ft (1,525m) while riding his steam-powered rocket,

    Could have saved himself by getting on a commercial flight, but then again he was more interested in being a budget version of Evel Knievel than really attempting to prove the Earth is flat. Maybe Musk will send his ashes up on a SpaceX rocket out of respect for a fellow rocketeer, and also for a bit of irony (look what you would have seen).
    Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

        How can it be flat with 10 dimensions?
