tom foy is in his 60s, trapped there three days, brought to earth and he's fine, he says he's settled and well adjusted, all he wants to do is work a hard day, not a minor anymore, but come home to his family at the end of the day. but for these younger men, they're going to be supposed to something they've never been supposed -- exposed to before ever in their lives, whether it's book deals or tv appearances, who knows who could come their way, and to deal with that and adapt, tom foy says is the biggest challenge for the men now, especially the the younger -- not the older gentlemen. he makes the point between age because he thinks when you're older you're a bit more settled and have different priorities but some of the men in the late 20s, 30s, they'll have enormous challenges and that will be part of the recovery going forward. martha: they do sort of a check of this capsule after one person gets out to make sure that it's safe, that nothing is damaged on the way up, that they can send it back down and get ready for the next person. imagine the anticipation, if you're a family mem
