On the bright side-- he got far more attention this way.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

If he saw the film before his attempt, I am sure that would have qualified him.

Maybe he didn't pray on the way down that god would save him. But then again gravity is only a theory.
I hope I never see anyone die in person, I get scared shitless enough merely when my mom gets the sniffles.
