Yeah I just watched it, pretty much flawless! Thought he was unconscious for a second before he jumped, he wasn't responding when they were asking him to remove his oxygen tubes, but I guess he was just taking a breather or nervous or something.
I think it's funny how he fell from space to earth in only 4 minutes and 36 seconds when most freefalls from a plane in movies last longer than that.
"I CAN GO SUPERSONIC!!! THE PROBLEM'S CHRONIC!!!" My grandma has been following this from the beginning. Crazy SOB. Sonic, you have some competition now.
Sonic's only got competition if it takes two and a half hours to load a level only to play for four minutes
I was so disapointed when I heard this on the radio today, I really wanted to watch it live. Still its insane he went over 800 mph, I wonder what that felt like.
Oh man, I heard about this crazy guy on some UK TV show. It may have been, Have I got News Foo You. Man, So he finally did it and survived? Crazy for sure but what a stunt. Of course living in Japan means nobody here knew fuck all about it since Japanese news only covers shit or Asian baby fighting between the countries. Mostly the Chinese being wankers.
Don't you normally need to do a second pass in the other direction and they take your average before they give you a speed record? I'd like to see how high he can jump haha. Nice feat but really if it is to be fair and consistent with other speed records he should have had to jump twice within the set time limit or have his achievement invalidated. Also he didn't manage the longest duration of freefall, just the highest speed, but I think he was aiming for speed anyway so it probably doesn't bother him as much.
Is that the Japanese version? It was all on www.youtube.com/redbull and www.redbullstratos.com so I assume they'll archive it if you missed it.
not real baby fight, I mean the asian bicker over shit like babies. China is being a right twat these days.
He got the highest jump record and fastest speed record. He didn't break longest freefall because his speed was too great.
movies are slower rate then actual actions and of course dramatised lol, and prehaps not going 800mph lol
