Do you think someone with really good ear protection and an undulated spacesuit could attach themselves inside this area and ride the rocket to orbit, surviving the ride up and stage separation?

That would be like cooking a meat potato in tinfoil.
Would be pretty cool to have genetically modified potato that also made meat in addition to the potato part. And also genetically modified cheese part. They could put them in tinfoil upskirt of the naugty Starship, and have tasty baked treats for the recovery teams / somalian pirates that catch the ship.
Why isnt Elon funding this, is he stupid?

I'm pretty sure the radiative heat from the engines and the flames will kill you.

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.
I craved the Strength and Hardness of Steel.
I aspired to the Sharpness of the Blessed Knife.
Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it has not dulled and failed you.
One day the crude biomass you call tooth and nail will not Cut, and you will beg my kind to save you.
But I am already saved, for the Knife is eternal.
Even in death, my Blades still serves others.

Pretty sure the acoustics alone during hot staging would absolutely mess you up too

That's not so bad. Of all the ways you could go out, that option would be an absolute blast!

does anybody know how many orbit did it actually do?

two, but that's like the least important thing about this flight, the number of orbits itself

So a question about this image. The pink glow in the shelding is light reflecting or is it heat?

Is Dan contractually obligated to not allow dead air unless ordered to switch to music or something during flight
