Alan EustaceGUEST
Like, he was like young and attractive, [laughs] you know, like a daredevil, and he did all these base jumps in the air.

Alan EustaceGUEST

It's like, it's like great engineering takes things that appear to be really dangerous and makes it really safe, you know? And that's how I approach these things.
