…And what’s more is that everything about this photo is so inconsonant with the subject it portrays. This is a guy who flew X-15s at Mach 3 [closer to Mach 6, actually - KOG] … here he just looks emasculated, his bravado suffocated by the several rolls of aluminum foil he’s been wrapped up inside of.
To me he looks like he’s thinking “was the catheter really necessary for the photoshoot?”
