David Saint-Jacques: You know, wow, so, there are so many things that you cannot prepare for coming here. You know, I knew it would be fun to fly, but I had no idea it would be this fun, that you could just turn around like this and fly! And, actually, what I’m surprised is that now, I find it normal. Isn’t that amazing? How incredibly adaptive we are. Even flying like this for me now is normal after two months. My body has adapted, so that’s an incredible thing: how much we can adapt. So even if you’re afraid of something, it doesn’t matter – you can adapt to any situation.
