Pete Davidson may leave this world soon after reaching an agreement to accompany Jeff Bezos into space.
The 28-year-old Saturday Night Live star is currently in talks to board a Blue Origin flight with the 58-year-old Amazon founder to spend just over 10 minutes 100 km above the Earth’s surface, according to Six.
“Pete is excited,” a source close to the comedian told the paper, although they noted that this was not a complete deal.

He was joined on this initial flight by pioneer aviator Wally Funk, who became the oldest man to fly into space at the age of 82.
