I've just seen this video on the BBC News website. I expect you already know all about it but here it is just in case: Spacewalker drops tool bag.
I'm amazed by how astronauts manage not to freak out while doing spacewalks. As in, "OMG! I'm in space! There's the Earth! Aaargh!" I suppose it must be because they've done a lot of preparation and are too intent on what they're trying to accomplish. I wonder if they have to do psychological tests before they become astronauts to make sure they're able to cope with it.
