This guy is attempting to set the record for the highest jump. He's about to jump in the next bit, and will break the sound barrier during his jump!

That was truly crazy, my stomach is in knots from watching it (but so grateful there are people in this world much braver than I to tackle feats like this!).

That was intense and amazing. So freaking cool. And even more awesome- the guy at mission control talking to him? That's Joe Kittinger, who held all the previous records for this stuff.

I missed the actual jump because I had to leave the house, but I was getting nervous just listening to everything. ACK!

I was flipping through the channels and saw it happening live when he was up in the capsule and they were going through all of the safety checks. I had so many mixed emotions about the whole thing that I think I might scrap it. Anyone know of a kit with a parachute?
