Did Mechanic Try to Launch Himself Into Space with Dynamite Explosion? | Granger Taylor Analysis

The dynamite may appear to us to be detonated, but it identifies as undetonated, so we should respect that and not speculate about how it was detonated since it wasn't?

Dr. Grande! I would love for you to talk about the mental health of Larry Walters aka Lawnchair Larry. This is a man who tethered 43 weather balloons to his lawn chair in July 1982 with some beer, sandwiches, a camera, and a parachute, and took a 45 minute flight. He caused a blackout on his descent and was arrested for his shenanigan. He later ended his own life in 1993.

St Peter: "Welcome to the Pearly Gates, Mr. Taylor, but I have to ask- what was the last thing that went through your head?" Granger: "My ass."

[@vladimirputindreadlockrast812]

I identify somewhat with Granger's magical thinking. When I was 8 I was living in an abusive environment, not allowed to leave the sitter's backyard. I developed a fantasy that the Star Ship Enterprise would beam me up, that I would be given a uniform and a phaser, and trek around the galaxy saving damsels in distress. This fantasy was a coping mechanism. When I was 9, I got an Etch-A-Sketch for Christmas. I was so convinced it was a tele-transporter, that I stood on top of it, shouting "Beam me up!" and when nothing happened, I stomped on it (unintentionally), shattering the Etch-A-Sketch. However, what puzzles me is that Granger was raised in a quite different, more supportive environment. For instance, he was allowed to rebuild engines, cars, airplanes, and locomotives. It doesn't strike me as a spirit killing environment, and with that I can only look from afar at his relative good fortune. I can't understand that his life was so bad that he would A) Need an escape fantasy, as I did, or B) want to kill himself.

[@bunberrier]

If he had intended to end his life, he would not have blown up the truck. He loved machines. Thats obvious. I think he was on his way to rendezvous with the aliens, real, or imagined, and it went off by accident. There was a massive storm after all. RiP dude. Your accomplishments are impressive.

[@martkbanjoboy8853]

A long time ago I was doing some unrelated research which led me to book some time viewing old local newspapers from the 1960's on microfiche. There was an article detailing the story of a US military helicopter pilot who was killed in combat in S.E.A. The story was a follow on to his obituary. He had been interviewed by a journalist from the local paper sometime before his death as he actually was a Canadian citizen, a member of a local Indian tribe. It was revealed that the courageous man had spent $ to get formal instruction in piloting rotary wing aircraft in hopes of increasing his chances of being recruited by the RCAF for the MOC of helicopter pilot. He was bluntly told due to his non white / non country club status, there was no way in hell he would be recruited as such. So instead he was recruited by the US military, and was allowed to follow his dreams come what may. He served with distinction and was killed in the intense fighting. A significant contingent from the US military attended his funeral on his treaty territory, & the funeral was carried out with full military honours - by representatives of the United States military. Granger Taylor - like Troy Hurtubise did not conform to the mediocre standards expected of Canadians. They had issues? Certainly. What does this cold intolerance of individualism and iron willed excellence say about our often mediocre domestic society? Imo it sheds needed light on an ugly aspect of Cdn. society, that should have its head shoved underwater when ever it appears. Another old folk song which comes to mind in this case is Ode to Billy Joe by Bobbie Gentry. Granger Taylor's legacy deserves a long delayed softness, he should be remembered with nostalgia, with forbearance and admiration of his stellar accomplishments in his chosen field.

[@gossamer9966]

It's sad to hear he didn't really have friends, and it's unlikely he ever had a romantic relationship. It's so important to be loved and accepted in general by your peers.

You'd think someone with such a tight grasp on mechanics and engineering would better understand the (nearly impossible to overcome) complexities and complications involved with interstellar space travel. When considering the vast distances involved, without the ability to manipulate spacetime itself, interstellar space travel borders on entirely inconceivable. Even if a highly advanced civilization were to, somehow, achieve the ability to travel at near lightspeed... there would still be immense obstacles to overcome -- mainly time. E.g. If one of these highly advanced civilizations resided in the Andromeda Galaxy (the nearest galaxy to our Milky Way, excluding dwarf galaxies)... traveling near the speed of light, it would still take them roughly *three million years* to come visit us here on Earth. Suffice to say, when you start doing some simple math, it becomes incredibly clear just how implausible interstellar space travel truly is.
