I thought this was great. I wholeheartedly agree with his point of "on the other side of fear are the best things in life".





Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.

Someday your life will flash in front of your eyes. Make sure it is worth watching.

"on the other side of fear are the best things in life"

While that may be true - good luck getting someone with more than an avg fear of heights to jump out of that plane to test that statement

Good Lord, Dart! Your takeoff was insanely scary, but your nonchalant commentary made it kinda funny. smile



The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly it’s day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run

Irrational fear is a liar. I ain't sticking my #@%& in a hornet's nest no matter how many folks online tell me it's a great experience!

He does understated rather well.
His IL-2 videos were extremely entertaining because of his narration style and unique sense of humor.
