Hey Skydivr! check this out!

One week to go and it will happen live on the internet as he jumps!

All systems go for Felix Baumgartner's 23-mile-high freefall toward sound barrier | Fox News

Over 5 minutes of freefall and total time to ground is approx 15-20 minutes wow!


This guy is the real deal, not no toaster jumper.

 

[skydivr]

He is the man, that is for sure. People have been trying to beat Joe Kittenger's record for over 40 years. MILLIONS have gone into this attempt. I'll be watching.

 

[chrisjp]

i wish him luck

 

[MO-BUSA]

wow going to reach mach 1 and break the sound barrier, what a rush that must be...wish him luck

 

[Blanca BusaLess]

Imagine it took a pane to get Yeager past the sound barrier.
This guy is doing it by himself!

 

[VaBusa]

Can't fix crazy can ya? Nope, just toss crazy from a plane

 

[skydivr]

The jump itself isn't that dangerous. What is dangerous is that suit and the implications if it were not to hold pressure!

Funny, kind of like us saying "speed doesn't kill...it's the sudden stop"...nope, jumping isn't the dangerous part, it's landing

Crazy. This is what happens when you have corporate backing and unlimited resources. But hey Redbull is picking up the tab. Good luck Felix!!

 

[Blanca BusaLess]

But Sky, no jump no danger.
Happy on the ground I am and will never have my blood boil or smash into ground cuz my chute didn't open

 

[skydivr]

What I mean is, once he gets below 15,000 ft, it's pretty much a normal skydive....

A tandem is around $200-$225.....

I had 50 jumps when I went to jump school ('93 as a young CPT), but there was no way in hades that I was going to let the blackhats know it.....
