Mumbai: Reid Wiseman and Steve Swanson, the two NASA astronauts got their head shaved on losing out on a bet. Alexander Gerst, German crewmember took up the initiative to shave their heads off. The three space flyers wagered on the United States-Germany World Cup match on Thursday (June 26), which Germany won 1-0.
It was pre-decided that if Germany lost, Swanson and Wiseman would get the chance to draw an American flag on the head. But as the US national soccer team fell to the European nation 1-0, Alexander Gerst got the chance to shave Wiseman and Swanson bald.
On getting bald, they weren’t disappointed but instead happily posted their photos on social media.
Good game Germany! Thanks for the shave @astro_alex #worldcup pic.twitter.com/mJ0upYT87c
