Gus said it wasn't ready you didn't listen to him
He got in there under his own power. Laying blame isn’t really a problem-solving skill. It appeals to the part of human nature that delights in problems happening.
I worked with the doctor who was monitoring the crews vital signs during this tragedy. He said, thanks be to God it was fast. I met the doctor several years after this event when we were both working in an emergency clinic.
What changed Wally was that his close friend Gus had been killed
Gene Kranz blamed the organization and culture. Same factors were later blamed for Challenger and Columbia. Wonder if they were ever corrected.
Gus was very vocal about the shortcomings of the rocket systems. Some say this occurred to silence him. It’s hard to imagine that there was no way to quickly open the hatch from the inside. This could’ve saved their lives.
Space travel has always been a gamble, either it’s safe and goes according to plan or minor barriers result in tragedy. Just like what’s been explained here and The Challenger.
I feel like Grissom was murdered. But prolly not.
Excellent. I wish everyone would realize that the end of the decade was December 31, 1970. Yes, 1970. The very first year recorded was 1 not 0. So the 60s-- and every decade go from 1 to 0. The first year of the new millium was 2001. Stanley Kubrick, director of the movie 2001, had it right.

Wally was good when everything was smooth... after accident he lost composure... first hurdle and no more Wally
Grissolm was silenced
Grissom was not silenced. He was the Commander. On the final day before the accident, Grissom took a lemon from a tree and,hung it on a simulator because it kept crashing.
Huh
There always has to be ONE like you, eh bikerjohn? This thread contains TWO of you!
@@martyzielinski1442 he may have been
Nope.
No proof not evidence.
But you're a conspiracy theorist.
And conspiracy theorists are tiny, insignificant losers that have never accomplished anything.
Learn your place, understand your value, and grow up.
Illuminati sacrifice
The guy at North American who designed the wiring and the other guy who installed in initiating wiring should have been convicted of manslaughter.
Can't watch with all the bubble crap in the way 😡😡😡😡
It's basically a podcast, but yeah. This is an intensely visual subject, and strict audio, especially for things like a launch feels... awkward.
"In this brief clip..." 33:03 . OK, gimme a clear _view_ of the clip.
It’s a podcast. Idk why they even added the visuals they did.
