Wow, this flight included an 82 year old woman.. wow. congratulations evrybody Blue Origin
Am not sure if you're saying she's just an old lady but she's way more then that simply google Wally Funk
@@gabm.3475 i just searched about her, and wow! Impressive backround and experience, she's awesome!
watching that old lady, made this flight too space soo special, probbly born in the thirtys been through so much and now an astronaut, god bless her.
She has trained to be an astronaut since the 60s as part of the Mercury 13 program. She’s not just any lady or just any 82-year-old. She fought for this and trained for this for decades. She is an icon, and I’m so glad she was finally able to realize her lifelong dream!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you believe this actually happened 😜😂🤣🥴🤪😩🤣
Just plain Happy for Wally Funk. Should have happened 40 years ago, we would have been better.
While I'm glad that Jeff made his dreams real, I'm so glad that my purchases over the years helped to right a wrong by getting Wally into space ❤️🙂
OMG you mean you contributed to this hollyweird presentation??? Have another glass of koolaid😂
@@lesliegums5119 haha! Chug chug, only £14.70 on Amazon 😂✌️
Jeff brother looks more like Jeff than Jeff himself.
ik. Jeff Looks like he's on Testosterone and HGH.
Jeff who?
True, except Jeff's more of a squirt...
Clone
I am so excited for Wally !! What a wonderful lady !
She's Awesome! Met her in college at flying meets. Always willing to take time and teach. Love you Wally!
What a supportive thing to say about Wally Funk! Glad you got to meet such an inspiring woman
82 years ! Wonderful.
I did a small contribution to this by buying a pair of socks from Amazon 🥴🥴
They couldn’t have done it without you
same i just bought a body lotion this morning
We must congratulate us because Bezos wouldn't have done it without our help... I bought an $5 e-book last month, that must have helped to buy one of the little balls they were playing with inside the spaceship.
@@gezfer5686 or the seat strap
😂😂
Go girl go! You finally got your ride! Congratulations!
We Love You Wally!!!! Congratulations!!!!!
Kudos to Bezos for doing this, and for having the foresight and decency to take Wally Funk with him. You go, girl.
Dito, what a woman, no one deserves more than Wally Funk to go to space, amazing woman.
@@darrenarmsden6409 Jim Fallon was mocking her senility... Well, Wally Funk is more coherent that Creepy Joe Biden.
@@myemperor Why make it political, stupid comment. And I won't waste my time to see your reply.

She has real guts. Age is just a number😍.
She is amazing.
Congratulations Wally Funk! I’m so excited for you ! That’s right GO FAST! You are an Inspiration to all women
Thank you for being an inspiration Wally 😍
Wally is a legend and Congrats Jeff
Happy for Wally!!
So happy for her amazing
Aww I would love to meet wally sparks she seems so energetic and entertaining
Wow, love Wally!
So happy for her
What a tremendous achievement!! Many Congs Team Blue Origin!!
Are we going to ignore the fact that Wally Funk said, "I thought I was gonna see the world but we weren't quite high enough."
Yeah I didn’t get that either
They only went 100 km up. Barely into space. The ISS for contrast is at 400 km. They were only over the Karman line for a few minutes.
Impressive!!! and congratulations 🚀🚀🚀👍
I love how excited she was about the whole experience!
I'm so happy for her! Congrats!
Love her!
You're an inspiration, Wally, thank you!!!
My new favorite person lmaoooo
Amazing so glad for her🙂
pretty sure most of astronauts she taught are so grateful for this.
Let’s go wally
We weren't quite high enough 😹
Congrats
I DIDN'T DO DOLLS. Women! Listen to her!!
I wish I could afford a home to live in.
so much fun
WoW... Go Wally Go..... "Girl Power" on top of the World !
ยินดีด้วยกับผู้หญิงคนแรกที่เดินทางไปด้วยเส้นทางแห่งสามัญชนคนธรรมดาสู่อวกาศอย่างแท้จริงคับ ยินดีด้วย ^ ^
Ay lmao greeted them you can tell
Space X and Nasa Need to just send her to Space Station Alpha
Really good acting , quite entertaining.
Go back wally go back
Bvc
saving up for my ticket now, at least my own satellite
Me too ! Lol
This old lady is marketing manager of bezos
Why because she trashed the view as being too low to see the planet?? Lol that was awesome and I’m sure NOT what Jeff wanted to hear from someone he gave a free ride too.
Of course its impressive! It's the first time for regular people! Do you have to be an astronaut to be in space?? What does it mean to be a astronaut exactly? does it even matter?
Interestingly: You don't actually become an astronaut until you go into "space" the first time. It's kind of an altitude marker thing, I guess.
If you need to beyond earths atmosphere and way beyond karman line. You have to.
Ok next stop, the Moon.
That lady deserves it
wally is the true star
My God Jim. The pilot is an AI.
The noise ??? After a 16 mph crash landing?? 🤔
im glad i payed for these people's flight. i buy amazon every day.
I thought she has experienced this before in some simulator aircraft.
They took her so that God couldn’t smite them. God bless her
Why the Uniform - it was all in a confined capsule? and now for the interview - other than to look like Astronauts.
Wally said we wasnt quite high enough to see the curve hahahaha
I thought it was Pete Carrol on the thump nail.
Mary Wallace Funk
The 18 years old man, looks like 27 28 even 30 be like..
He’s Dutch. They all look like adults at birth.
Exactly! I was expecting a teenager but I guess space makes them grow older.
I am 17 hopeful i can get a ticket by the time i reach 28-29
Please do something else more useful
Mr. Bezos is already thinking about shipping Amazon Prime to Mars!
Why Jeff is wearing hat?
To do with the ranch it launches 🚀 from.
Space Cowboy ( nerd )
Small patches of hairs poping
@@pcchavan8752 it’s got nothing to do with small patches of hair lol . He created a 300,000 thousand acre ranch by buying everybody up. 🎠
Hiding the hairline
63 miles and no Earth view, wow ths Earth must be 10 times the size they think it is, I thought you could see the curvature from 46,000ft, they were over 330,000ft high🤔
Hmm Funny everyone says they see curvature 60 miles up and she said she saw NOTHING !! Horizon rises with elevation so she agreed she couldn't see nothing but flat land !!!
Anyone else notice the USA flag on their arm is back to front.
Only on the right arm. The flag is shown with the staff end forwards, as if it is flying back. You’ll see it reversed on the right side of aircraft, boats and vehicles, and on military uniforms. Other countries do it too.
👍♥️👍👏👏👏👍♥️👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥰
I'm tired
Bernice Sanders
Hello... I think you're missing a little detail... To go into space one needs a heat shield. No heat shield, no space, no Buck Rogers... the heat shield separates the men from the boys..and girls...
She really doesn't act her age. Could be late 50s or early 60s with that kind of energy.
But why did she call her Amelia Earhart?
why weren't they gazing in wonderment of the earth rather than bouncing up and down playing catch ?
Did this lady have to pay $28 million too?
She’s really disappointed because it’s not a curvature 🤣🤣🤣
Now that Branson and Bezos have done their sub orbital shows, Jeff when you put your Lunar Lander on the Moon be sure to set it up with multiple high definition zoom cameras with infrared lenses and film our Pear Shaped Oblate Spheroid Earth Tilted Wobbling And Spinning In The Soul Lure System … I have a Swiss Forensics team ready to scrutinize it, if it passes I will gladly go back to the Ball… Peace
I like the NASA SpaceX version better than the Blue one Jeff did. Elon's Space X is Much more professional & the most successful.
glad Jeff got it DONE..!! ABOUT TIME..
This was a publicity stunt and a joke. For God's sake look at how perfect the parachutes were spread out when it landed listen to them Wahoo as they see the Earth from above for the first time where most people would be speechless not screening Wahoo wahoo. Look inside the capsule when it finally lands had he already removed his helmet because I never seen a helmet the whole way down and the picture was hd-quality very close to the capsule but when you got close enough to actually look inside it looked like a dummy in a blue suit which either way it was accept this dummy was either a Library owner who went to space with the little old librarian or a big gimmick publicity stunt
Wally Funk!!!! what a name lol
it was just a few minutes of jumping up and down, which could have been done on a trampoline...meanwhile, the most majestic blue planet was whirling by, and people were focusing on weightlessness, which could be experienced on earth, with proper equipment..not as exciting as the Chinese launch of the taikonauts
Not high enough to see the curve huh?
Just here waiting to see interior footage of them during the launch and the landfall.
WoW amazing 💕💕😍👌 day in History 💙😂☺️ 😍 Congratulations 🎉💖 Jeff Bezos 😘🇺🇲🌹🚀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😘💖🎉🇺🇲☝️❤️👌
Wally?
🤔
Astronauts 🤔 lol
Sayang gak reti artine
Reminds me of Joe Biden trying to talk, you just cant grasp what they are saying.
Typical "journalism" today... Like how much effort does it take to scratch a few lines about her background, etc.
👩🚀👩🚀👩🚀👩🚀
They didn't even take the old bag to see the earth from space
She must be a liar... It's impossible she's in her 80s...😁
How are they astronauts? Did not reach orbit, did not pilot anything.
They didnt go in orbit put they did go in outer space anything over 100km is consider space . The reality his most astronautes don't really pilot anything when going into space it's mostly auto pilot. I do agree with the point of view that most of them didn't do alot to be called astronautes, but in theory it's the appropriate name to use. Based on the Oxford definition an astronaute is anyone who's trained to travel in a spacecraft. I personally don't believe calling them astronautes devalues the title, it simply signify that what people have been working on for decades is becoming what they hoped, space his becoming more accessible and as much as I dislike the company's owner it's unfair to downplay the legitimacy of what those people are part of.
Dafaq
Did he wear those boots to space
T-gendered
She wasn't high enough to see the world? What the f*** does that even mean
Sorry, but that whole thing wasn't very impressive and definitely doesn't make any of them astronauts.... it's a good step for blue origin.
I kind agree with you.
always that one guy, live life for once will ya
@@allen57 not to sure what you mean there bud. This has nothing to do about me living life. I'm just not impressed by this stunt. If you are... cool, happy for you.
@@allen57 Honestly it was rushed effort by Bezos Blue Origin. There is a reason NASA rejected Blue Origin in favor of Space X. Just watch when Musk decides to board on of the Rockets of Space X. Those Rockets actually orbit Space. Bezos supposedly started this project nearly 20 years ago. We have seen man supposedly land on the Moon. So how is this impressive?
@@MARZOSIRUS People are also acting like Elon Musk hasn't sent 2 crewed missions to the I.S.S. granted he hasn't gone himself, but he has a lot of things hes working on.
If you're going to spend all that money to go out of space at least stay up there for at least 3 days then come back
Mao once said, a journey of a 1,000 miles starts with one step. How many steps taken today?
We're supposed to believe this lady had the ability to have an elephant sit on her chest feeling 6 G's of force
6 gs would be 6x the gravitational force, this lady looks like she weighs 130 lbs. 6 x 130 is less than 1,000 lbs.
A roller coaster is 3-5Gs soooo…
Just wondering why everything has to be so negative for some people. Just leave it alone.
Thought I was going to see the world 🤷♂️ oh dear
