Curious, the article doesn’t say how much Ford was paid to act or narrate that video?

I saw another video of him where he said he did the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.

What to believe?

“...12 parsecs ...”??

A parsec is a distance!

That line never made sense to me. A parsec is a measure of distance. It's like me saying saying I ran the Boston Marathon is 16.2 miles.

No matter how many Star Wars fanboys try to justify the language as meaning something rational, Lucas screwed up and wrote it wrong. AND whoever wrote "Solo" doubled down on stupid when Han Solo bragged AGAIN about making the Kessel run is 12 parsecs.
