Guest Atom Dowry Firth Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Wow this came out of nowhere: Google's Alan Eustace beats Baumgartner's skydiving record The Google executive - who is also a veteran pilot and parachutist - had been planning this jump for several years, working in secret with a small group of people trained in parachute and balloon technology Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rixxx Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Luckily, some people can afford to do it on their own. But cool, nevertheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Atom Dowry Firth Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 There was a documentary shortly after Baumgartner's jump that followed him during the preparation stage and he just came across really badly imo. Massive ego, head completely up his own arse. He threw tantrums and threatened to walk away from the project because the suit people had spent years making for him didn't feel comfortable. I quite like the fact this guy has basically just come out of nowhere like 'oh yeah so that thing you did a couple years ago? Yeah I just did it better and didn't bother to tell anyone lol' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KovalainenFanBoy Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 So when will someone fly up to the ISS and jump from there? When the psychological preparation fails and one of the astronauts commits suicide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 So when will someone fly up to the ISS and jump from there? They would continue to orbit, with a gently lowering elevation if they pushed off of it in the direction of the earth. They would still be travelling so fast along the face of the atmosphere that by the time they got to the main body of the atmosphere, they would burn up. Oh and whilst I'm being faceatious rixxx, it's nonetheless. You're welcome everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
