Brian Walker's website under "External Links" is not longer extant, apparently. Perhaps, if he launched himself from the giant crossbow as he intended, Mr. Walker, himself, is not longer extant.Pepperosa 00:51, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
No Real Rockets
editI pointed out that this individual has never launched a rocket. In fact, he has not come anywhere close to doing so. His flair is for publicity, rather than rocket building. 66.80.222.104 17:37, 3 May 2007 (UTC)Duncan
- The implication that he is not able to launch a rocket pushes NPOV and more acutely he's just not that talented at publicity to sustain the implication he's anything but sincere (hell at the very least he'd have more information in this entry).
Mr. Walker argues that his rocket is so small a sub-scale test would be impractical. http://interviews.slashdot.org/interviews/02/07/12/1410203.shtml?tid=160 Litch 05:58, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
Notable?
editDoes not seem to be worth an encyclopaedia reference. Comments? BTW - this is not about me! docboat 13:14, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Seems notable to me. Anyone that has a chance to catapult themselves into space under their own power is worth notice. It certainly is not commonplace yet. Apparently he had a bad marriage BTW, according to: http://www.sptimes.com/2003/02/14/Floridian/As_the_fuse_fizzles.shtml WonderWheeler (talk) 01:51, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
