Keen to watch the GoPro footage of an Austrian falling from 24 miles above the earth? Sure you are. This newly released video shows the first person perspective of Felix Baumgartner’s jump from back in 2012.
Has it been a year already? Geez. I’m sure we all remember trying to get our Wifi connections pitch-perfect to watch the most momentous skydive in history – only to be told a few minutes later that the jump was cancelled. But eventually, the magnanimous Felix Baumgartner did take the jump
Austrian sky diver Felix Baumgartner has been convicted of punching a lorry driver during a road-rage incident in 2010. Baumgartner was driving in Salzburg when he overtook a queue of four cars waiting at a roundabout, only for his car to become wedged in front of the other drivers.
Last night, at about 8pm local time, an Austrian by the name of Felix Baumgartner rose 128 000 feet into the air and jumped, free-falling 128 000 feet from the stratosphere. Part of the Red Bull Stratos project, this is the highest skydive ever attempted. He even landed on his feet. We’ve got the video.
