Felix Baumgartner's supersonic freefall from 128k' - Mission Highlights

Red Bull not only give you wiings it gives a great big pair of steel balls!

 

Awesome jump. I would have taken his place but I was a little busy...

What makes it really neat is that Joe Kittinger helped him from day one. I remember the first time I saw Joe's spacesuit on display; at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Museum. All you had to do is look up... His display is there, amid the backdrop of a blacked out ceiling, showing him right after his step off from the gondola. I took a picture with a crappy little disposable camera. When I got it developed, the company enlarged the photo and cropped it in a vertical panorama. That was the best pisture I ever took, I framed it, and hung it up.

As for Red Bull... I love the stuff. I really like it with vanilla vodka or Jaegermeister. Way to go RB! I hope RB Stratos finds another venture to go after; they did a great job with this one.
