One of my very favorite, 'gateway drug'-astronauts - I'd recognize that sweet drawl, anywhere..

Why John Young is more badass than Chuck Norris

Mythbusters never needed to test anything. They just had to ask John Young.

John Young has never had to eject from a plane. He forced it to land by sheer will.

John Young invented the Blue Steel in 1956.

When John Young criticized the Gemini capsule design, the Gemini capsule cried.

John Young’s gaze once burned down an entire hangar bay.

John Young never gets dirty…he only gets tousled.

John Young has been on every spaceflight known to man, including unmanned flights.

John Young once arm-wrestled a rabid raccoon in an Orlando swamp. He walked away with a new Davy Crockett hat.

John Young once made a cameo appearance on America’s Next Top Model. He ended up being the only male to ever win.

John Young doesn’t need a flight surgeon to tell him he’s healthy enough to fly. He just somehow ends up on a spacecraft.

Wherever John Young is is a spacecraft.

The lunar rover had only two speeds when John Young was driving it: FAST and GOD HELP US ALL.

John Young never had to ask Deke for flights. He just looked at Deke and Deke GAVE him all the flights.

Pete Conrad and Neil Armstrong both agreed that they thought John Young was cooler than they were.

John Young doesn’t wear fragrance, his body sort of makes its own fragrance. And he gave it five stars, because he knows a freakin’ lot about stars.

John Young wrote Gene Cernan’s entire autobiography. John Young didn’t even read it.

They named a parkway in Florida after John Young. John Young then called Florida’s senate and asked them to change the name of the state to “John Young.”

You know when you’ve been John Young’d.
