so close to breaking the last record. How many did he break? Speed,height and?


longest freefall?


I'm pretty sure he bob'ed the freefall by releasing the parachute too early?


Nah he was going so fast there's no way he could have gotten the time free falling record.


He released the chute way too early, he was expected to get the longest free fall record. Oh well, it was still a fantastic jump.



I think they were going for breaking sound barrier spesicifly, so he didnt slow down decreasing freefall time.

Still, he was losing speed waaaay before that, he could have break the freefall time record.

I wonder what kind of data they specifically got out of this..

They can gather data for emergencies of astronauts. If they can jump from "space" back onto earth without a space shuttle.

The fact that they rose above the projected altitude is valuable data as well.

They should keep suits like his on commercial flights, if he can survive at 700mph, so should passengers of an aircraft going quite a bit less than that.

Thought there would be a microcam on his helmet to get his descent view. Oh well.


It's a fundamental technical issue nowadays in extraordinary-applications. It's really difficult to transmit data at a speed above ~250km/h in real time. For example your mobile telephone doesn't work, when you drive a train/car faster than 250 km/h. You could hear even his voice was kind of cutted because the "single data packages of his voice" don't arrive in time/differently.
