I did not see that coming. He also worked at nasa. He built a space probe.

Thanks OP... it was the Hubble Space Telescope.

He was no doubt a (joyful) plant by the producers.

And he is an Aeronautical Engineer that worked with the Hubble.

WOW is right, what I wouldn't give to hang with him for an evening and just listen.

The first time I watched the whole thing figuring he would cover Sinatra or something.

Mind Blown! Love this guy!

If so, job well done.

He's a well known karaoke guy in Albuquerque, NM, so you can go and hang out with him if you make the trip. He usually sings Elvis etc. but once (in 2014) garnered attention for his karaoke night by doing "Bodies" and a Rob Zombie cover.

Dude, that guy is my new hero. The crowd literally went apes**t! Mad respect. I think this dude should run for President! I would vote for him.

a reply to: stosh64

Wow some life still in that dude at 82.
Musing on older heroes..
I recently read the news that Indian strongman Manohar Aich has recently passed away at 104, ex Mr universe 1952.

Tributes have been paid to a celebrated Indian body-builder, Manohar Aich, who has died in the city of Kolkata (Calcutta), aged 104. Mr Aich died of age-related "complications" on Sunday, his family said. He is survived by four children. Mr Aich was the first Indian to become Mr Universe in 1952, five years after the country's independence. The 1.49m (4ft 10in) tall bodybuilder was popularly known as "Pocket Hercules". He began his career as a stunt man performing with a famous magician and would often enthral the audience by bending steel with his teeth or resting his belly on swords. Mr Aich, who once stood for election and lost, gave his last performance at the age of 89.

Thanks for that info. The wife and I always wanted to do a western road trip. I will pin it on the map.

Better probably do it sooner than later though. Not many of that generation left.

That was awful. Exploiting Grandpa. Simon Cowpile has done irreparable damage to the Music Industry. Every bit is staged.

Music is not a Damn Contest.
