Daredevil skydiver Felix Baumgartner breaks records

14 October 2012

Austrian Felix Baumgartner has broken the record for the highest ever skydive by jumping out of a balloon 128,100ft (24.26 miles, 39km) above New Mexico.

The 43-year-old also became the first person to fall faster than the speed of sound, reaching a top speed of 833.9mph (1,342km/h) - Mach 1.24.

Video cameras relayed the moment Baumgartner stepped from his balloon capsule to begin the nine-minute fall to Earth.

4:20 freefall

Nice! I was hoping they weren't holding onto this footage for the BBC documentary.

My wife and I watched it for an hour or so, ya there wasn't much going on for awhile but it was still exciting and interesting.

Guys there is another thread already devoted to Felix's crazy Sunday. Mods suggest combining said two threads for brevity.
