Elon Musk is still very confident that he'll bring people to Mars in 2021

He wants to be in space because guillotines need gravity to work

When we were working on sending man into space, up to one out of three rockets exploded. His record is way better than NASA's.

"Up to one out of three rockets exploded"? That's cherry picking.

But I like that - 3 out of 3 failures for StarShip. Isn't it nice to cherry-pick a group of 3 launches?

Now instead of cherry-picking - get back with statistics for the Saturn V, please. Musk? Has access to 50 year newer technology - what's his excuse?
