“I’m an astronaut, I’ve gone Mach 25”! And that’s not even the biggest flex in his life
-
Dude has so many talents but one of the most underrated is his talent to talk and present. Absolutely fascinating to listen to.
-
14:30 This part here, where he says he'd been in space so long that he'd forgotten his lips and tongue had weight and it affected his speech back on Earth, that's incredible. It's those fun little details that nobody would ever know or even think to ask about if they had never been to space before. What a unique perspective astronauts have.
-
Chris Hadfield saying " I REALLY like The Expanse" has made my day - I'll take that as a seal of approval any day
-
If we were ever to find aliens, Chris Hadfield should be the one to make first contact and communication. He's the perfect representation of humanity.
-
Chris Hadfield gives us 21 minutes of incredible verbally intelligent rational explanations.
-
I see Chris Hadfield, I click. So simple.
-
Loved it when Chris Hadfield says, “I’m an astronaut, I’ve been at Mach 25” …. What a flex!
-
Expanse needs its own breakdown video with Chris Hadfield! It has so much going on over nine books / 6 seasons
-
I love watching Chris Hadfield sharing his decades of experience and enlightening us all about the realities of space travel. Thanks for the fantastic video!
-
Chris really is the most easily and effortlessly articulate person I've ever heard (and read) who has described the experience of being an astronaut. He's one of few Canadians that make me genuinely proud to be Canadian.
-
The fact Chris praises The Expanse makes me very happy as a huge fan of the show
-
This segment could have been double the length and still wouldn't be long enough for me. I love watching Chris Hadfield speak, he is captivating.
-
I always thought that Fast 9 space scene was so ridiculous but Chris explaining the expression on their faces when seeing Earth was actually touching 😢
-
Chris Hadfield, still a class act, and trailblazing our understanding of the science of space travel. Astronaut, educator, fighter pilot, philosopher, author, interplanetary musician. Thank you Canada for this literal gift to humanity.
-
Love that he loved The Expanse. I can't recommend it enough. Note belters tend to live in 1/3rd G in spin stations. In fact later in the series there is a pregnant character and they specifically mention they have to go to a spin station for gestation.
-
I was lucky to meet Col. Hadfield a few times in my life. One of the nicest and kindest people I have ever met.
-
It amazes me how evey clip where you think he's only gonna talk about the space aspect he's like "Yeah I was actually a marine" "yeah I was a test pilot" "yeah I wrote a book about that' "yeah I advised the director on that film" like how is he such an interesting person
-
Careful, thoughtful, disciplined and teamwork oriented people. Quality every professional should have and strive to become.
-
I would love to hear a whole episode of him just delving into the Expanse.
