36.5km above the Earth (Felix Baumgartner Skydive)

[BLAHBLAHJAH]

That was intense!

Top fucking lad... Astrolad

[pkay]

Kinda bummed he didnt break Joe Kittinger's free fall record.


Anywho seeing Joe Kittinger all day in mission control was fucking classic. If this guy doesnt become an internet meme stat its a crime

[AxeD]

Not all the records, but that was pretty impressive stuff.

[TooMuch]

wait what record didnt he break? did he break the soundbarrier.\

My stream was piss poor considering I watched from 70,000 ft...

[AxeD]

I believe he did not break the speed of sound.
Although their measurements might be different.

[kay]

Records to be confirmed, press conference soon. Measurements displayed on the live feed might be slightly different from actually measured.

[noam]

he didn't brek the freefall record

still woulda laughed if he jumped out and started floating upwards

but good guy, span constantly at 700mph for 3minutes

[cloquet]

michael caine's really let himself go

all joking aside that was incredible. choked up when he was stood on that little platform preparing to jump.

[Dub_freak]

Missed it

[pkay]

real question

given the same budget and support team, would you do it?

ive sky dived before so not scurred of the sensation, but extremely worried I'd pass out from pressure changes or something weird going on. I'd like to say I'd do it, if I wouldnt it would be due to personal physical limitations

[noam]

yea as long as i was fit enough to keep the blood pumping when spinning in freefall

sure he must've experienced well over 7-8 G's during those first few minutes

[BLAHBLAHJAH]

In a heartbeat man

[wilson]

Kind of gutted they didn't show any footage from his body cams during the jump.

Maybe if I had like 20 years of skydiving experience like he does.

[Dub_freak]

Doctors say i shouldn't even do normal skydiving but i would if i could.

[knell]

and then was like OH NO MY VISOR IS FOGGY

freaked me out for a sec when he said that, don't blame him for pulling the chute early, a couple of records is enough for one day

[LACE]

deffo pkay

i'd volunteer for manned space flight to mars if everything was paid for

[volcanogeorge]
