Call 911...We got a Jumper.....

Jump

Screams the crowd

He just passed Kittinger's record altitude of 102,800 feet!

Let's see this 1960 record get blown out of the water

This is a pic from my crummy camera. I'm surprised we can still see him as well as we do, the pic doesn't really do it justice. Picture taken when he was around 85,000 ft.

What time does he actually jump? GMT time preferably if anyone knows?

Thanks for the link OP.

Any idea at what altitude he is supposed to jump?

No one answered my question but...

I did a little digging around and it looks like he's jumping from where the balloon will level out, or around the 120,000 ft mark.

Almost 5 million people logged on to 1 single Youtube page....crazy!

Can this still go ahead with the visor heating problem? I hope they don't take any unnecessary risks just because he is already up there..

It is a rather crucial component so the situation seems a bit "unlucky".
I have been waiting to see this jump, but the way the situation is now, I hope (and think) that they will not take any risks.

Did he not get one of these?

This better than the Moon or Mars landing.

Godspeed Felix!

Over 5 million people being unproductive!

Nah I'm kidding, this is pretty sweet. I wish I could try something like that.. Anybody have some old balloons they wanna donate?

In many ways this is actually allot more cooler!

edit on 14-10-2012 by LiberalSceptic because: (no reason given)

well he's nearly there now, and the only way down is jumping....Go Felix..Yo da Man!!

Decision made. He will jump!

Soon 125k feet. This is amazing!

Starting the checklist now...
127,600 ft.....fluctuating a bit.

Checking bail out bottle pressure.

This guy is NUTS!
For some reason, I am glued to this

And I am one of the ones stuck with an error message. I was watching the beginning just great, but then boom - can't seem to get connected again. I am guessing server capacity issues on other side.

If you have cable or satellite TV, many channels are carrying it (mainly the Discovery channel). That's where we're watching it.

Just jump already!
