    Cool movie about Chuck Yeager ? What about "Right Stuff" ? Much of the film tells his story was about (sorry for GT - i want to say - this movie is in 1/3 about Yeager). But It might be more ...

  • I have a DVD at home with a great film "Right Stuff" Phillip Kaufman (of 1983) which tells the story. A few brave American pilots were killed in this test when they try to overcome the sound barrier. But Chuck Yeager did it. And that has made this with broken ribs. The amazing story. But true.

    Sorry for my poor english. I used Google translator. Do not you think that it is getting worse?

  • Chuck Yeager this guy has titanium balls to climb into that jet, you guys should have a statue of him somewhere and a cool movie about Chuck Yeager and this event should be made, this guy is a fucking hero, im an aussie, and i have massive respect for this guy, he flew anything and everything they through at him

  • Thanks for this video.

  • Simply Amazing!

  • Awesome!
