 Rocket Man Builds Backyard Spaceship | | By: BizarreNews | Published: 05/18/2001 | | |  |

BEND, Ore - 44-year-old Brian Walker never finished school. In fact, he dropped out after two semesters of engineering college. But this fact is not keeping him from building a rocket in his back yard. The self-made millionaire has already invested $250,000 in his project. The thrust will be produced by a combination of steam and hydrogen peroxide engines. If all goes as planned his rocket will take him up to 32 miles, where he will experience several moments of weightlessness and then begin to fall back toward Earth. My whole mission is to show what a person can do on his own, says Walker. If I die, I die. I´d rather die trying this than spend the next 40 years bitter that I never made the attempt.

...Have we learded nothing from Wyle E. Coyote? 2 things: don't use ACME rocket parts and, Damn it, don't point that thing at me!
Otherwise, this guy rules! "Laugh while you can monkey boy!"
