German free diver Tom Sietas held his breath underwater for 22 minutes, 22 seconds in May 2012- a new world record! Yuk! Astronauts in space often lose their sense of smell and taste! A mosquito being hit by a falling raindrop is like a human being being hit by an SUV- but they survive by riding the raindrop for a fraction of a second!

I has to do with the gasses they breath on the spacecraft. Besides, with astronaut food made by the lowest bidder, it helps.

I don’t think Sir Paul is too worried about your opinions of him. As the most successful composer and performer of pop music to date and a net worth estimated between 800 million and 1.2 Billion dollars he has passed the test of time. You don’t have to be the most talented just take full advantage of the opportunities handed to you. Great timing and marketing are key and he had both.
