The fastest speed you have traveled... Land, sea or air?
Or perhaps someone has been to space?

Re: The fastest speed you have traveled... Land, sea or air?
I don’t think I’ve ever been on anything faster then a passenger jet.
I’ve been weightless, been on an aircraft carrier, jumped fences while horseback… I have jets regularly flying at insane speeds a few hundred feet above me… but I’ve never gone very fast anywhere.
Security takes longer then all of the flights I’ve been on practically… outside of going to Italy that is…

I once had a customer pick me up in a rather impressive BMW in a German airport. He asked if I wanted to drive it on the Autobahn. I took it up to 150 miles per hour or so, quite legally. But not for long, it was too much faster than other cars were driving.

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

Re: The fastest speed you have traveled... Land, sea or air?
It depends on your point of reference.
Our solar system and earth is spinning around the center of our Milky Way galaxy at a speed of 220 kilometers per second, or 490,000 miles per hour
So we are all traveling at that speed every moment of our lives.

Speed is relative.
Arguably gravity and time is too.

I have no regrets about being on the fastest passenger jet, the Soviet Tu-144 "Concordski," in addition to the Concorde.

The fastest I travelled was when I decided to go to the hardware store ... after accidentally breaking some of my wife's favorite plates.
