Super Mario Catches a Buzz

Posted Nov 5th 2007 12:40PM by TMZ Staff

Astronaut legend Buzz Aldrin has gone head over heels for Super Mario Brothers -- literally!
Buzz Aldrin and Super Mario
As part of a promotion for a new Wii game, the 77-year-old Moonwalker floated in a zero-gravity chamber in Las Vegas this weekend, alongside his favorite Italian plumber pal, Super Mario. One small step for man, one giant leap for geriatric kind!

No dentures were lost in the taking of this picture.

5. For the record, there is no such thing as a "zero gravity chamber." This photo was taken in the Zero Gravity Corporation's jet, G-Force 1, a Boeing-727 that has been modified to allow the aircraft to perform parabolic maneuvers in flight. When the pilot performs a parabola (much like a roller coaster dip) ZERO-G flight participants experience approximatley 30 to 32 seconds of weightlessness. ZERO-G has offered this serivce as a commercial service since September 2004. Experiencing weightlessness is a fabulous experience that you ought to try. You'll be able to fly like Superman.
