  • Adam Savage is obsessed with spacesuits, and his latest costume build for this year's Comic-Con incognito walk is a replica of the very first spacesuit made for famed aviator Wiley Post in 1935. Adam's also excited to experiment with Worbla in this build for the helmet, and make heavy use of his sewing machine for this striking suit!

      Actually if you watch starting at 1:07:10, there is music being played. The difference is that the music being played is in no way a distraction to the viewer. There may have even been more instances where they played this kind of music but I only listed the last one. This kind of music seems to fit and is more soothing to the ear, and is in no way a distraction to the video, such as in some video's where you hear nothing but a wailing guitar. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the sound of a wailing guitar. In fact, I actually have 7 guitars of my own and love playing them and making them wail. But there is a time and place for everything.

    One neat little fact about this helmet is that the window wasn't centered perfectly, since Post only had one eye! He fed compressed oxygen into the helmet right near his face, which would probably freeze your face right off -- except it emptied out onto his eye patch. Such a great tribute to an absolute badass, and such a great build!

    • @j.stevenyork5271

      You beat me to it. I groaned when I saw him center the port, as I knew it would drive Adam crazy when he found out.
      Special interest to me on this one. According to family legend, my granddad (who was a pilot in the military) used to hang with Wiley Post (and Will Rogers too) at a nearby airport when he lived near Oklahoma City.

    • @HowToOverthink

    • @dbolan
      @dbolan Před 6 lety +14

      J. Steven York I'm pretty sure he's aware, since I learned that fact from a book he recommended in another video :P But Adam's got both eyes (obviously haha) and the off-centering is pretty subtle, so I can't fault him for making it a little more comfortable for him to wear!
      Edit: Book is called Spacesuit: Fashioning Apollo by Nicholas de Monchaux. It details the design process of the Apollo Spacesuit kind of from an art historical perspective, and is pretty fascinating from start to finish!

    • @korenn9381

    There is something about a craftsman working that is just is nice to watch. I know and won't call you a master craftsman. Just because you dabble in so much and so different fields of things, from working with fabrics, wood metal, plastics, paints and everything in between. but for the most part, you have an understanding of what you are doing or how it could be done and some learning along the way that is so accessible to so many people that watch this and think "I could build anything I want now". which I have thought many of times watching endless videos of yours. Also reminds me of when I was little watching my granddad make things out of MDF as he was an amateur woodworker from home with the lathe, table saw, drills and all bits and pieces. Great memories from my childhood. Keep up the awesome work with all builds. Very inspiring.

    Super cool! About 20 years ago my father, who at the time was CEO of a huge job shop, built three exact replicas of the helmet. They were constructed as accurately as possible using Wiley Post's original patent documents. Two of the helmets are still on display here in Oklahoma (Where Wiley Post was from). One is in our science museum and the other is in our State's historical center. The real ones are VERY uncomfortable!

    Hey Adam, great build! You mention maybe painting your mannequin around the 43 min mark. I thought why not paint it with a whiteboard paint, than you could use dry erase markers on it when patterning and wipe it off later.

    • @samwolfe9403
      @samwolfe9403 Před 6 lety +7

      Helge Frisenett thats a fair point. But if he used if for making it up, recording measurements and working notes in their needed locations than it would be pretty useful in my opinion. He ended up using a different mannequin part way along anyways. You wouldn't have to assemble the fabric on it or pin stuff to it. It could be useful for patterning and determining how to best lay stuff out.

    My favorite thing about these builds, is that you release the walkthrough in comic-con first, which is the content most want to see, and upload the build after (obviously to hide the identidy) but most youtubers will leave the real content for last, almost trying to force viewers to watch the build, but with this style of uploading you actually make me WANT to see how the costume is made, and so i'll sit through the FULL Hour of building, EVERY. TIME. well done to you all at tested, please keep up the amazing work.

    Fred M. Sample invented a *_"suit for aviators"_* . Then, Wiley Post helped develop one of the first pressure suits also for aviation. But the first *_pressurised SPACE suit_* was invented by Emilio Herrera in 1935, a Spanish military engineer and physicist. His prototype inspired NASA when the U.S. space agency was creating space suits for its astronauts, including those worn by the crew on the Apollo 11 mission to the moon.
