According to the book "Dragonfly" this whole EVA got pretty heated, to
the point that Cosmonaut Solovyov claimed Cosmonaut Tsibiyev punched
Astronaut Jerry Linenger in the space helmet at one point.
Linenger said that EVA'ing was absolutely terrifying, as he felt like he
was falling towards the Earth the entire time, and he never wanted to do
a EVA again as long as he lived.
