I still can't get my head around this...wow....it really seems simple. Space suit, weather balloon, parachute....couple a gopros...and of course some red bull stickers. A walk in the park lol. Can you imagine standing on the edge of space?? The jump from there would be no big deal because you can't see the friggin ground... Oh...and...lets break the speed of sound while we're at it....so when I go by you won't hear me screaming for a few seconds....... Unreal. |

This is certainly intriguing. I watched the countdown to the first attempt before it was scrubbed due to wind. I've never sky dived but have had the itch a few times. I can't imagine how it must have felt standing there on the edge of space, with your only option being to JUMP. I heard this morning that he fell for 4 1/2 minutes and hit a top speed of 800 + MILES per hour. Jesus! |
