I liked how he emphasized "a man".

Buzz is in great shape for his age, but his age is showing in his voice.  Are the commercials playing on TV somewhere or just on the WWW?

It's playing on TV in Finland.

I didn't even know the folks that make Crunch bars are also in the oil business...

Oh, wait.

In Finland?  That raises the possibility that Aldrin was deliberately leaving pauses and "hesitations" so that translations could be added.

I couldn't help but think of Nestea as well.  It turns out Neste has an office just down the street from my work.  I should take them a Crunch bar and some ice tea just to say hello.    Maybe they'll introduce me to Buzz. ;D

That certainly makes sense. Many of the gaps were when he was not on screen.  It would be odd for the editing to leave them in.  But as it is, it sounds as if he can't speak without having to gather his word in mid sentence.  I can only hope to be in that good of shape when I am in my 80's.   Much as I would also like to punch BS in the nose.  I've given up on going to the moon.
