Ya, still cool though. I would think the only way he could break it is if he had more control. i.e head down, but with no air resistance he is just spinning and no control, that has got to slow you down.

That was sweet! The Discovery Channel showed it live on TV too. I couldn't look away!

I think he did break the sound barrier, no?

Pretty cool that his last words before jumping were "I'm going back home now"

Re: Live feed of Felix Baumgartner jump...
 
Sound Barrier yes, Highest jump yes, Highest Manned Balloon yes, Longest Freefall not looking good. Awesome jump none the less.
