Red Bull Stratos, starting in 40 minutes!

[Pistil]

Red Bull Stratos is a scientific mission to 120,000 ft. Jumping from a stratospheric balloon one man will attempt to break the speed of sound in freefall.

After many days of attempts the weather is clean and he's finally starting the ascension right now!

He did it! He reached the speed of 728.87mph and broke the sound barrier, pretty impressing to see that guy sitting with his legs outside the cabin with such a small earth under his feet.... i wish i was him.

I watched live online and it was impressive. Wish he had broken the free fall record though.
