Alexey Leonov - first human in the space

[MrSrgj]

Russian in 1971, the first launch to Mars, planetary probes. He sat down on the Martian surface and died within a few seconds. Anyway, he was the first on Mars. Russian as well, the first to launch an automatic station on the planet Venus.

Yuri Gagarin is first man in Space...

Alexey was the first man to walk in space

[Grant691]

Yuri Gagarin was first human in space 4/12/61

[themainproblem]

He is a true hero of the Russian space program. Actually all astronauts and cosmonauts are heros. But I especially admire the ones in the very earliest space flights. Nicely done Alexy!

Respect from Apache Junction, Arizona.

First human in open space walk

[Marakulous43]

What a misleading title...CHANGE IT NOW!!!!

[jerryaltman]

He was the first to "walk in space", but not the first on space. The first man in space was Iury Gagarin.

[JaDuetschland]

Yuri Gagarin bro Yuri.

[xXDennisThaGangstaXx]

@jerryaltman It's not lury, it's Yuri :)

[Serpico261]

@jerryaltman well the first astronaut in space, but kittinger was actually the first human in space

[satweavers]

IF Korolyev had not been killed by the incompetent, arrogant head of surgery, IF the N1 Moon Rocket program had succeeded, Alexey Leonov would have set foot on the Moon... perhaps before Armstrong. That's a lot of IFs, but the Soviet Space Program was glorious.

[carloscavalcanti]

I think Gagarin would´ve walk. I guess that accident wouldn´t happen if Korolyev was alive.

сила!!

[Andybucker]

Leonov says: "At the launch...at the launch, that's what Sergey Pavlovich told me: "Don't rush, report everything" and wished me a nice solar wind.. Pascha went up after me. Sergey Pavlovich talked to him about something for quite a while. The rumors are, that he said something like: "If something's wrong, eject Leonov and return to Earth" It's all bullshit of some idiots! He just said: "Watch Alexey. After all, you've got the console with his breathing, pressure and all the parameters..."

[vitoduval]

Like Alan Bean, Alexei Leonov is an accomplished painter

[Andybucker]

True, I like their work.

[ftutbs]

alan beans painting are amazing.

[iamwall]

i smell a conspiracy.. =p

[anders77]

Amazing man, Amazing circumstances, Amazing Russia! @fresshness2001 I too, wish I spoke Russian!

[daveythewavey19]

two guys went before gregarin, one died, the other was horrible mutilated in the landing

[fresshness2001]

It really is very unfortunate I do not know the russian language!

[andicela]

Great man! Read his book

[jmmarccks]

First Space walk NOT first human is space

[ValValiantThor]

Actually, General Leonov was the first human to have physical contact with space. During his first excursion from the spacecraft, he had to evacuate the air from his spacesuite in order to fit back through the capsule's airlock. To do this, he punctured a hole in his suite to let the air out. Thus, he was the first earth-human to make physical contact with space. This is a well-settled, undisputed fact.

[MichelNey1815]

He did not "puncture" his suit - he needed it for the rest of the flight, remember. Even he says he "lowered the pressure" through a valve designed for

that use.

[andragon85]

idd. Yuri Gagarin was the first man in the space!

[WWTLF109b]

Actually, better call this video first man in the OPEN space! of-course Gagarin was the fist, but Leonov is gream sun of our planet too
