Zero G Monologue

QuestionAnswer
Zero G is a blessing and a curse. I mean, for keeping track of your film, it’s a curse, because the goddamn stuff, you put it down, which is a stupid thing to do. I always used to put it down on the edge of the simulator, and it just stayed there, you know? (laughs) And without thinking, I didn’t stick it on the Velcro.
I always used to put it down on the edge of the simulator, and it just stayed there, you know? (laughs) And without thinking, I didn’t stick it on the Velcro. Put it down here – where is it? I’d have to go hunting for it and that always puts you a few minutes behind. It’s also a curse from the bodily functions. I mean, next time you go to the latrine, imagine if you were in zero G.

I mean, next time you go to the latrine, imagine if you were in zero G. What does that stuff do? It just-ugggh. It’s hard, even with KC-135 (zero-G aircraft) flights, you are just not able to totally train yourself for zero G until you get there.

The plus side is, it’s a very comfortable place. I mean, I can’t sit still; my back starts hurting. And yet, I never got uncomfortable on the flight…it’s very relaxing. It’s easy.

You don’t have to be strong…Mainly you’re just like a big fish, like a jellyfish, lying there. And your arms are like this, in their natural position; your legs are like that…Pretty soon, after three days, you’re adapted to it. …I enjoyed zero G.

The thing that was the most difficult for me to sleep was that the damn sleeping bag was sized for somebody like C.C. Williams, the biggest guy around. I was like one pea in this pod.

I didn’t realize it, but I kind of like to feel the security of the bed up against me. And I can’t sleep on my back; I’ve got to sleep on my stomach, and feel pressure. And there was no pressure.

And I’m sure you’ve had this feeling, where you’re lying in bed, and just before you drop off to sleep, you suddenly feel like you’re falling…
