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"

Sound Barrier yes, Highest jump yes, Highest Manned Balloon yes, Longest Freefall not looking good. Awesome jump none the less.

Just watched this for the first time. That was simply amazing. Most definitely makes you feel good to be alive. Haha

Yeah it's strange. You get to a certain altitude, and the temp goes up, then down, then way up again.

It's not a fascination. I just go through old posts often as well as search through old posts. If it interests me, yes -- I will bump it. In all honesty I don't even bump super old things very often, and if I do it's because some people may have never seen them or because I don't want to duplicate a thread and get the oh so common "Use the Search Function!!!!!"

Something a month back isn't that bad. Besides, this is an awesome subject.
