[BigKwell]

@BulgarianTuber Didn't expect that gophers would be nesting that close to the pad. Wonder how they get used to the noise of lift-off?

[jabao1990]

Did the golfaz got kill or what my brothahs?

[TrueNumbers]

@BigKwell I have a hunch there isnt a launch frequently and so there is time to nest.

[TrueNumbers]

Baikonur, kazakstan? Sorry if I didnt spell the city and country correctly.

[PROosmotr]

@BulgarianTuber they will die =((

It's impossible to erect Saturn V this way.

[ChamplainDivision]

@BigKwell They don't. It's not a noise you can get used to because it doesn't happen often enough. If it did you wouldn't have gophers living that close to the pad.

I want you to kill all the gophers by the launch pad.

Why?

So they don't go deaf when the rocket launches.

[BulgarianTuber]

@BigKwell They must bury themselves into the ground.
