R.I.P. Neil Armstrong: August 5, 1930 - August 25, 2012 (Our Nation's Hero And - Easily - One Of The Bravest Men To Have Walked On This Or Any Other Planet,...)

Only those who have volunteered for war come close to the level of bravery this man exhibited, and few have matched the level of dignity with which he lived his life afterwards. A truly remarkable human being.


The true face of courage. 

 Here's what his amazing feat would've sounded like if it were me:
