I know he didnt even land on his bum so so cool
he just walked as if it was the norm

This is basically Marketing 101 used by Red Bull.... Right out of the playbook of Conrad Levinson.

A modern day Publicity Stunt

My hearing isn't all that great so I ignored it when I thought he said he'd run out of oxygen and was going to pass out.

He jumped from 128,000 feet in the strastosphere. Here is a link to the actual video for the people who didn't see the stream. A bunch of pop ups come on the video just click the X on them I dont know why he would ruin his own video he uploaded.

The longest Red Bull advertisement in the history of the woooooorlllddd


It's funny how a company can do this but NASA or ESA or whoever can't find/get the funds for human exploration of space.
