love it. that achievement may not seem like it but it's comparable to the moon landing in terms of complexity. of course most people are more concerned with the latest instagram post from a celeb or too busy being "outraged" over the latest CNN/Fox News headline. long live the types of people in that video. death and disease to the average dipshit of the world! :D
Sergei Krikalev aka the last Soviet citizen. The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991 when he was in the orbit and he had to stay there for about 10 months before returning to his new country.
Whats impressive is that landmark made it thru that.

The breastplate of 23 year old cuirassier Antoine Favreau, struck and killed by a cannonball, June 1815, serving Napoleon Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo.
In 1999, an expedition crew led by Johan Reinhard was carrying out an archeological excavation near the summit of the world’s tallest active volcano, Mount Llullaillaco, in Argentina. The crew set their camp at an elevation of 6,600 meters where the temperature would go down to -40 °C.
A surprise came when a member of the group screamed, “Mummy!” And so, they discovered the “highest burial site” in the world and more importantly, the most well-preserved mummy in history.
Archeologists found 3 child mummies on the site (the other two being La niņa del rayo and El niņo). However, the child mummy La Doncella (translated as The Maiden) was the most notable one.
La Doncella is the mummy of a 15-year-old Incan girl. Over 500 years ago, she was offered as a sacrifice to the Incan God of Sun. Scientists determined that before La Doncella was taken high up in the Andes Mountains, she was given chicha, a corn beer that made her fall into a deep sleep.
Coca leaves were found on her lips, which was used by the Incans to decrease the effects of altitude sickness. Furthermore, coins were found in La Doncella’s palm, alluding to her status as a messenger to heaven.
