Pretty Sure I Can Fly is a humorous exploration of things that had never been done, until someone did them. It’s a series of weekly conversations about what it takes to break through the barrier of “impossible” and set new standards for human limitation. Pretty Sure I Can Fly is like going to history class, except your teachers are actor, stuntman, and outlaw radio DJ Johnny Knoxville and long-time This American Life contributor Elna Baker. And each week they bring a new guest to tell you all about how they “grabbed the bull by the bunglesteen” or “really hogwrenched that spatooly.”

DIY Space Exploration with Jeff Tremaine
This week, we're joined by Jackass director Jeff Tremaine to talk about Nick Piantanida, a record breaking parachutist from the 1960s. Knoxville and Tremaine tell the story of how a truck-driving, exotic pet-dealing, all-American hunk singlehandedly created the field of civilian space exploration, and how he eventually lost his life to that pursuit.
