I'm not entirely sure him being immortalised by a failed launch would be particularly great tbh.

Who's next in line in leadership? Cause that's some cyberpunk plot line to become CEO if something goes wrong for Bezos

Andy Jassy takes over as CEO next month. Jassy is a near ground-floor Amazon employee who ran the Amazon Web Services division, and when Bezos announced a year or two ago that he was stepping down as CEO Jassy seemed like the obvious successor. He doesn't have much of a public persona but he's generally liked among tech reporters, or well, he's thought of as competent and effective.

elysium was kind of a dopey movie but the part about space and space-associated tech being reserved for the ultra-wealthy while the rest of us choke and die on earth, that part was spot on.

Hopefully his billions go to actual good causes should he end up not coming back.

Its a pretty safe flight - 15 consecutive successful flights and the capsule does not reach orbit (but goes above the Karmen line) or orbital velocities. So long as the parachutes open, everybody will be fine.

How about we start with not wishing him to die?

Do you think Jeff Bezos cared about the damage he caused when he didn't pay his taxes and kept hoarding his decadent, ill gotten wealth for himself? Do you think that Jeff Bezos cares that he could solve as many of the world's ills as he wanted and still live in luxury for the rest of his life? Do you know how much money you could take from him and he'd still be richer than entire continents of people?

Why we gotta make nice with the sleeping dragon atop of a mountain of gold?

I figured you'd dodge the question. Should we just give you a gun and skip the discussion?

It's okay to want billionaire parasites excised from our society.

If it makes you feel better I'm pretty sure nobody is going to do him on their own but, you know, it'd be pretty funny if he died in a tomb paid for by his obscene wealth.

I know this shit is complicated and launching anything on a rocket even without a manned capsule is a colossal undertaking that I can barely begin to comprehend, but I can't really get excited for suborbital shit anymore. Mid 90s era Discovery channel promised me moon bases and manned Mars expeditions by now.

As for the Bezos minute of hate, I'm not going to actively wish death on him but I won't begrudge anyone their animosity towards a billionaire who added tens of billions to their net worth during a global pandemic that killed over half a million Americans and over 3 million word wide.

Nobody is reading the OP and thinking that if he is gone amazon would change

Amazon is likely gonna be the same and the flight takes place AFTER he resigns as CEO

Anyways I would never do a flight like that - I'd rather wait than be the first person to take a trip like this....

Edit: oh it's not their first flight

Millionaires doing test runs for when they inevitably leave this planet for good.

The planet that is almost unlivable due to said millionaire's shenanigans.

LMFAO did you think this was a "gotcha" moment or some shit?

JFC. This fucking site. Can't even laugh about launching Bezos into the sun.

You totally can, but you'll have folks who agree and/or worship him come out of the woodwork then disappear again. Which is strange, as Bezos is one of the worst human beings alive today. I can't imagine having a positive thought towards him.

Jeff Bezos identifies aliens only for them to be killed off because he overworked them to death.

No matter what you think of someone, that really isn't called for. Some of the replies here are horrible.
I always find it kinda fascinating tbh. But Just gotta assume the ppl who come to discuss someone like Bezos or any other super rich person hates them. Hoping he dies or something is kinda crazy though.

We gotta think nice thoughts about the parasites of our planet. Expressing discontent for the people who will destroy our lives without a second thought is actually the real evil.

Jeff B-bezos, pweases stop abwusing yo wowkews enen pay-y yo taxes uwu
