I like how he just goes, "So I was completely blind outside of the spaceship..." "So what's the scariest thing you've ever done? A lot of people are scared of spiders..." Like this guy is incredible.
Really when he told about the launch... "In a few hours you will be glorious in space or you will be dead" still in mind, and I really felt like I was in that shuttle myself about to be shot into space. He really knows how to tell a story.
Chris Hadfield has successfully navigated the fine line of humility - writing and talking about yourself and your experiences so that they sound like a privilege rather than a peacock-type boast.
Chris is definitely a workaholic person he knows science physics chemistry mechanics piloting psychology philosophy music instrument multi-linguist and physically strong. what a charm.
you know many people have made similar comments about Chris Hadfield exalting his demeanor and ability to explain and connect with other's as well as his intellect, what really floored me once was in a interview where basically this same commentary was being made about him by the interviewer and he essentially said very humbly "you have to understand that as a Captain on the International Space Station they select for this". Which as a concept is obvious of course, but then you really have to understand there not just looking for Intelligence and fitness, they filter for a whole host of characteristics that would best help someone lead others in extremely stressful and dangerous situations while still having excelled at the educational background all Astronauts are required to have.
I got chills, this guy is just a model; a model that we should follow. I'm not saying that you gotta do all he ever did but, trying to think the way he does.
+Simon Duquette He is an inspiration for every human here. He inspired me, I always wanted to become an astronaut, and I'm working hard for it; I'm a 16 years old autistic boy, I'm from Canada, and I'm gonna fight for my dreams and my ambitions, I'm not gonna give up untill my dreams come true. And I really feel like I'm here on earth, to accomplish something great.
CAPT. PHAMSA I'm slightly autisic tho, I'm in a specialized class. And I don't think that my autism is an handicap physicaly and socialy, I feel like it's a gift.
I can learn languages really easily, I have an almost perfect pitch at piano which I learnt myself, and socially, I can make friends as If I was like the others. But I am so much empathic. Example: If someone I don't even know is being intimidated, I will try to help that person. And when one of my friend's sad, I am also sad. That have it's good sides, and it's bad side: I suffer from depression very often; well I suffered, I think I overcame that. With that said, I hope it answered your question.
So, let me get this straight...This guy is an astronaut, a great public speaker and he can also play guitar and sing... How many lifetimes does a normal person need to accomplish all of that?
He also played with the Houston Symphony while he was on the ISS, joined by other NASA musicians, on stage in Houston. www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/multimedia/gallery/jsc2013e011415.html
Damn, that 'fear not' at the end.. it's the kind of thing that sends chills of pure inspiration throughout your being. And who better to say it than a man who has walked BLIND IN SPACE and overcome everything needed, to be a truly awesome human being. Chris, you are a living legend!
I love how he tells the story of his mission step by step to let the audience feel like they were there with him. He's in an industry that is intimidating and hard to relate to, but he talks about it in a way that makes it feel relable and easy to connect to.
This man did more for the space programme than anyone before him. His philosophy and his practicality help him relate to every single member of his audiences. For many years I have admired him and I think that admiration arose particularly when he spoke directly to the school children who were mesmerized by him. He deserves all the accolades and recognition mankind can give him.
The beauty of the ending is when he says “Fear not” and is interrupted by applause and a standing ovation. Instead of going back to the point or trying to say what he maybe intended to say, he left it. He ended with “Fear not” which is such a good mantra to live by. An amazing and inspirational man.
Such an inspirational story. It reminds me of the time I was in the shower and some shampoo got into my eyes. I had no idea what happened. I just felt this burning sensation and shut my eyes closed. Fortunately from a lifetime of training I knew exactly what to do. I called 911.
I saw him talking live a few months ago, it was a two and a half hour presentation and he had the audiences' rapt attention the entire time. I mean there were small children- maybe eight years old- in the audience and it was just silent the whole time listening to him speak

@@davidm5707 My first thought was to start by holding jumping spiders. They're actually pretty cute (for a spider), they don't bite, and giving them a lift out of your house rather than squishing them is a good way to respect wildlife while expanding your comfort zone.
Probably my favorite living person on Earth. His speaking is so fluent, so understandable (even when beyond comprehension), and so easy to listen to...I'd pay copious amounts of money to see him speak like this in person or have a conversation with Colonel Hadfield. Loved this so much.
I met him when I was about 8, I have a picture signed by him with my name and telling me to reach for the stars, it's in my closet somewhere because it's in such a strange frame and such a strange size I don't hang it but I do have it. Sadly like 99.99% of the human race my aspersions to become an astronaut didn't work out but it's still such a motivational peice none the less
... you guys think a redback is the worst it gets? its like having a daddy long legs in your bathroom for us aus. how about a perfectly formed web that spans a 20 foot gap between 2 trees and is about 10 feet tall, and on it is a spider as hairy as a brush and as large as your palm, waiting for you to walk into it. lets not forget... they only make these webs in the night to get ALL the bugs haha
This gave me so many goosebumps when he was talking about just looking down and seeing earth live on without him and the sheer darkness below him. Makes me really think about the perspective of things, incredible.
@@Nautilus1972 Going into low earth orbit entails thousands of hours of training, speaking multiple languages, being an experienced pilot, being in perfect physical condition passing strict hearing and eyesight tests, be overall fit, be an engineer, be highly intelligent and persevere enough to be select amongst tens of thousands. No big deal
I like how Chris elaborates his experience without too much technicalities just casual talk which exactly how we would want to hear. Enjoyed it all the way! thanks Chris.
I'm 67 last month. Appreciate the push. Had a he'll of a ride. Worked with US and foreign military/aerospace, Area - 51, DARPA, NRL, STAR WARS, MOD's, Global Embassies etc. Merry Chrisrmas to you and your Loved Ones!
I give astronauts so much respect! You gotta have some serious balls to leave a planet you know as home going through layers of atmosphere into a completely different atmosphere with zero gravity to where your body floats around days or months. Because of people like them we’ve been able to learn so much about what’s outside of the bubble we live in. Astronomy always amazes me. Also his analogy about fear and danger was a little motivation to not let anxiety and false fear/the unknown you perceive as danger stop you from experiencing life!
I love how animated and descriptive he is when articulating his experience, specifically the part about the liftoff. It almost doesn't need pictures he paints with his words.
I had goosebumps from just listening him explaining this whole space experience. Can't even imagine how is it to experience this on your own. Fascinating. Simply amazing. Yes it is dangerous. But we will all die some day. So why not to play dice with lady luck and do one of the most exciting things you can do being a human - go into space.
The way hee speaks reminds me of how a grown up would describe things like a child. He has the way of speaking and creativity in his imagery like a kid does, but he does it with the knowledge and calmness of an adult. Its quite cool.
What a storytelling skill...i actually felt all the things he told...He a full package of adventurous, enthusiastic and narrative talent... Hats off to you sir!!
Oh man, I needed to hear this a very, very, very, long time ago!!! As I've grown older I've found I've become afraid to just venture out into different states or travel abroad because I'm afraid of the world now- it's ridiculous, BUT after hearing this I'm going to toss it all into the wind, "WORLD, here I come!!!" Thanks for opening my eyes once again!!!
Mind you his message was not necessarily to throw all fears to the wind, but rather to understand where the fear comes from, inform yourself on the actual danger relative to that fear, prepare yourself for said danger, and then with all of that knowledge and understanding, move forward towards your goals. At least that was my understanding of it. Good luck to you. Fear not.
How about walking into the bathroom to pee only to realize that there's a venomous centipede that crawled out of the drain or out of the toilet the other time you used it
Astronauts are heroes. Risking their lives taking the most insane ride you could ever take to further our understanding of space in the name of science. I can't imagine sitting in a shuttle waiting for launch into the open sky without my heart leaping into my throat. These are truly courageous men and women.
Lol calm down, they're far from heroes. Humanity is an earth based civilization that sees extreme danger on the surface. Be it war, natural disasters, creating dangerous machines and chemicals, etc. Most rockets blow up upon launch. If anything the engineers are the heroes since they get them up there safely. Sometimes.
The he way explained space and his experience during spacewalk is just amazing! It's so real that I feel like I can literally see and feel a tangible sense of heaviness and fear in the vastness of universe.
Oh please, don't insult Canada like that. Hadfield is nothing but a professionally polished liar. Watch just 2 minutes of this clip from NASA's actual space station footage and you will never see these frauds in the same way again. ruclips.net/video/0kcc5UrlkMU/видео.html
@@chrislantos I felt my brain cells getting fried while watching the video in your link. It's not anyone else's problem that you flunked out of science class because it was too hard for you. Maybe put some more effort into your pathetic life before you start tearing down your betters?
I've never been that interested in space growing up. Always thought it was cool but never really cared to much about the great expanse until I started watching him describe his experiences and it really is the coolest thing
“The danger is entirely different than the fear.” Coolest quote ever.

Probably my favorite living person on Earth. His speaking is so fluent, so understandable (even when beyond comprehension), and so easy to listen to...I'd pay copious amounts of money to see him speak like this in person or have a conversation with Colonel Hadfield. Loved this so much.
This actually made me cry. What a beautiful, amazing human being. Thank you.
of course it does. It is designed for it!
This guy made me feel like I was in space. Enjoyed every second of this talk :)
kimberly miller no
I agree. Personally I enjoy listening to him talk about stuff like this and explain stuff that only a highly select few will ever get to do.
legendary mustache on a legendary astronaut. thanks for inspiring me and so many more.
Occasionally, in life, you come across people who are just so awesome.
Hes so interesting. Id love to just chill and talk to him about anything.
Oh yes he is.. How.r u
ruclips.net/video/a_CKFD-1Ljg/видео.html watch this tell me what you think
You mean Netflix and chill?
Your are literally a goddess
This is the most badass Canadian ever.
David St-Jacques is up there too, another astronaut.
Deadpool
He is up there for sure, but I'd have to give that to Terry Fox.
Trevor
HEY ! Wayne and Sidney are pretty cool.
Why do I have tears in my eyes while listening to this guy?
must be the anti-fog
Jay Ffs Lamo in dead 😂☠️
Because you didn't use the Johnson anti tear shampoo
I really dont know
But you can't cry?
I met him when I was about 8, I have a picture signed by him with my name and telling me to reach for the stars, it's in my closet somewhere because it's in such a strange frame and such a strange size I don't hang it but I do have it. Sadly like 99.99% of the human race my aspersions to become an astronaut didn't work out but it's still such a motivational peice none the less
"We are the people and not robots, exploring the universe" that touched me !
Iss Hi
Chris: “Next time you walk into a spider web... don’t go crazy and go with your caveman instinct”
Me: well here in Australia
hahah my thought exactly....
Get bit by a redback? You’ll be fine
well here in florida, going outside on its own requires me to suppress my screaming caveman reaction
... you guys think a redback is the worst it gets? its like having a daddy long legs in your bathroom for us aus. how about a perfectly formed web that spans a 20 foot gap between 2 trees and is about 10 feet tall, and on it is a spider as hairy as a brush and as large as your palm, waiting for you to walk into it. lets not forget... they only make these webs in the night to get ALL the bugs haha
😂👊🏾
I love the quote "We are not machine exploring the universe..We are People."
using machines. we've created and enslaved them.
👌
@@thirdworldrider6991 what do you do with machines other than enslaving em?
I met him 3 years ago and he’s just as interesting to talk to!
I love Chris. The twinkle of his eyes does not match his body but matches the twinkle of a child full of hope.
true
Nope, Just idolizing a guy who told his story.
It never left :)
I admire this guy's public speaking skills.
Rich 'Chicken' Panini good fuckin morninggggg!!!!!!!
This gave me so many goosebumps when he was talking about just looking down and seeing earth live on without him and the sheer darkness below him. Makes me really think about the perspective of things, incredible.
Chris Hadfield is the epitome of an absolutely amazing human being.
what I took away from this is... even spiders are ridiculously polite in Canada
YOOOOOOOOOOOO 😂😂😂😂😂
Yeet
Ya0
It is all the Tim Horton's timbits and that the spiders get all their aggression out in the hockey ring.
What's bad about that?
Most people idolise musicians and celebrities, but Chris hadfield is the real MVP.
Cornelius LL he is a musician and a celebrity so.....
A guy who is a musician and a celebrity.
Because he went into low-Earth orbit?
@@Nautilus1972 Going into low earth orbit entails thousands of hours of training, speaking multiple languages, being an experienced pilot, being in perfect physical condition passing strict hearing and eyesight tests, be overall fit, be an engineer, be highly intelligent and persevere enough to be select amongst tens of thousands.
No big deal
@@Nautilus1972 He is a nice guy. Watch The Park Bench's Artic trip video! Tom Scott describes his own experience being a roommate of Chris'.
I like how Chris elaborates his experience without too much technicalities just casual talk which exactly how we would want to hear. Enjoyed it all the way! thanks Chris.
As an aspiring astronaut, I love seeing all the space content and the excitement that there is around space travel! Thanks for the insightful talk.
i wish you luck in becoming an astronaut!!! never give up!!!
It’ll be awesome to see you as an astronaut, keep going mate, you really can achieve it
Listening to this man describe the unfathomable wonders of space travel kinda makes me want to leave everything behind and become an astronaut.
FeejGuy Rza I liked Scott Kellys tales too. "Once you realise you're not gonna die, it's the ride of your life." 😂😂
This was great
snowcat ayyyyyyyy
snowcat u have check mark by name that means u important hello important person it is i not important person
snowcat motorcycles and spaceships
snowcat do another stunt vid
hello
This. This is my motivation. This is why I love space and astronomy. This, is why I stay calm.
DkWw BEAST that comma shouldn't be placed there.
I think he meant it to be like, "This....is why I stay calm"
Lol he didn't go into space. He's a Freemason. He's lying to you
DkWw BEAST this is why ur a weirdo loser
FREE GEMS this is why nobody wants to be friends with you
Brought tears to my eyes.
I was that 9 year old boy and my Father talked me out of it.
Sad.
Great job Chris!
It's not too late.
I'm 67 last month.
Appreciate the push. Had a he'll of a ride. Worked with US and foreign military/aerospace, Area - 51, DARPA, NRL, STAR WARS, MOD's, Global Embassies etc.
Merry Chrisrmas to you and your Loved Ones!
@@jacdragan8918 Thank you!

I hope you are doing well 💖 Lots of love 💖
this changed the way i look at life

wth is going on here 😇
"Unfortunately, without gravity... Tears don't fall." THEY CRASH AROUND MEEEEEEE!!!
Hey. Bullet for my Valentine. Haven't heard them in a while!
Bullet for my Valentine baby
!!!
Just put that song on. Thanks
I love you.......
I give astronauts so much respect! You gotta have some serious balls to leave a planet you know as home going through layers of atmosphere into a completely different atmosphere with zero gravity to where your body floats around days or months. Because of people like them we’ve been able to learn so much about what’s outside of the bubble we live in. Astronomy always amazes me. Also his analogy about fear and danger was a little motivation to not let anxiety and false fear/the unknown you perceive as danger stop you from experiencing life!
I love how animated and descriptive he is when articulating his experience, specifically the part about the liftoff. It almost doesn't need pictures he paints with his words.
That man isnt just an astronaut, he is an inspiration man.Just i need to hear him everyday
I'll show this video to my children ... there is so much in this talk.
I had goosebumps from just listening him explaining this whole space experience. Can't even imagine how is it to experience this on your own. Fascinating. Simply amazing. Yes it is dangerous. But we will all die some day. So why not to play dice with lady luck and do one of the most exciting things you can do being a human - go into space.

This is very unlikely. I like to dream about it, but I realize this is barely resembles what realistically will happen.
MrCorvusC
There was a contest with a large money prize for the first designed airliner. Now people have already signed up.

Troll or idiot? There are tonns of pictures of Earth. And you comparing picture on a screen with actually being in space? Wow...
This is deeper than J.F.K penis in Marilyn Monroe.
True that brother. Don't mind the assholes here.
The way hee speaks reminds me of how a grown up would describe things like a child. He has the way of speaking and creativity in his imagery like a kid does, but he does it with the knowledge and calmness of an adult. Its quite cool.
The wonder in his voice is precious-can you imagine being up there to see the world?

I’m fine down here when I can see you haha. 😳😳😳
This guy is an absolute legend.
Howdy Alan! didn't expect to see you here. :P
.........you're here
His descriptions are captivating-I just went to space with him.
I really enjoyed this. I've watched his videos from space and they're awesome too. He's a cool guy.
What a storytelling skill...i actually felt all the things he told...He a full package of adventurous, enthusiastic and narrative talent...
Hats off to you sir!!
"To finish"... Come again? 16 minutes that looked like 5. He's captivating
That was the best TED talk thing I've ever watched. The storytelling was so vivid and this guy is just incredible and inspiring
This really is the most motivational speech I have ever heard.
Oh man, I needed to hear this a very, very, very, long time ago!!! As I've grown older I've found I've become afraid to just venture out into different states or travel abroad because I'm afraid of the world now- it's ridiculous, BUT after hearing this I'm going to toss it all into the wind, "WORLD, here I come!!!" Thanks for opening my eyes once again!!!
Mind you his message was not necessarily to throw all fears to the wind, but rather to understand where the fear comes from, inform yourself on the actual danger relative to that fear, prepare yourself for said danger, and then with all of that knowledge and understanding, move forward towards your goals.
At least that was my understanding of it.
Good luck to you. Fear not.
@@LethalShadow thank you for the solid advice, I agree!!!
He conveys his message so calmly, honestly and powerfully that I ended up in tears by the end.
I was so emotional too!!
Good way of putting it.
Bad idea in a spacesuit outside the SSI lol
Fortunately you cried in a place with Gravity
That's really interesting. I find some of his Q and A sessions calmer and more impressive. The TED format kind of strives for effect.
A pilot, an astronaut, an engineer, musician, author and a father. What more can you ask
He is Fighter pilot too
@@villejaaskela1038 This guy has so many achievements, i'm so thankful to have someone like him on and off this planet.
He also worked in a submarine
To be an astronaut you HAVE to be a pilot and an engineer. It is a requirement
Johnny sins has entered chat
Hadfield: I was blind in space.
Me: *thinking about that one time I freaked out looking at an ant*
You know when you wake up to go pee in the night, you turn the light on and BAM. Cockroach? This is the fear I know.
How about walking into the bathroom to pee only to realize that there's a venomous centipede that crawled out of the drain or out of the toilet the other time you used it
@@healthya7975 I think I'd rather pee outside in a bush thanks...
UnverableComics 🤣🤣🤣
@@fayeharrison1741 what if theres a snake in the bush??
I cried twice while watching this video, It really touched my soul. Watching earth from outside and we are people not machines.
“The danger is entirely different than the fear.” 10:14
Love this line 🖤
Astronauts are heroes. Risking their lives taking the most insane ride you could ever take to further our understanding of space in the name of science. I can't imagine sitting in a shuttle waiting for launch into the open sky without my heart leaping into my throat. These are truly courageous men and women.
Look for the #dearMoon project. Amazingly inspirational stuff, made me tear up a bit
Lol calm down, they're far from heroes. Humanity is an earth based civilization that sees extreme danger on the surface. Be it war, natural disasters, creating dangerous machines and chemicals, etc. Most rockets blow up upon launch. If anything the engineers are the heroes since they get them up there safely. Sometimes.
For science? No friend, in the name of humanity... for all of us.
Hero implies doing something you wouldn't do otherwise for someone else. He would go to space even if it didn't benefit humanity.
@@Kai...999 More of a hero than you though
"What was the most dangerous thing you've ever done? Because I went to fucking space."
I once kicked into a table and I shouted in pain :(
+Solymosi Soma That's pretty dangerous too dude.
+SomeGamerKid Most dangerous thing I ever done? Walked barefoot in a lego factory.
I lived in a house with toddlers
+I'm So Random :p i asked a girl how old she was........i..i think we know what happened next..
The he way explained space and his experience during spacewalk is just amazing! It's so real that I feel like I can literally see and feel a tangible sense of heaviness and fear in the vastness of universe.
This man is a true Canadian hero
An all-around good human
Oh please, don't insult Canada like that. Hadfield is nothing but a professionally polished liar. Watch just 2 minutes of this clip from NASA's actual space station footage and you will never see these frauds in the same way again. ruclips.net/video/0kcc5UrlkMU/видео.html
@@chrislantos I felt my brain cells getting fried while watching the video in your link. It's not anyone else's problem that you flunked out of science class because it was too hard for you. Maybe put some more effort into your pathetic life before you start tearing down your betters?
NewJak14 a true *international* hero
Why does he fly for NASA? Does Canada not have a space program?
He's probably one of the most interesting people alive.
18 minutes of Hadfield time feels like, 6 minutes or so. I love listening to what he has to say
I've never been that interested in space growing up. Always thought it was cool but never really cared to much about the great expanse until I started watching him describe his experiences and it really is the coolest thing
I really hope we put Chris on the 10 dollar bill in Canada! He’s such a huge inspiration and deserves so much respect and recognition!
