It's awesome how simulation games like KSP teach people about rocketry and orbital mechanics - I bet KSP will contribute to the coming resurgence of interest in spaceflight.
Lots of KSP references in the youtube comments:

I dunno, it looked less likely to fall apart on the launch pad due to wobbling in the breeze...
