Felix Baumgartner free-falls from space

Hey folks,

So I'm not sure if you caught this one today...but Felix Baumgartner, a former military parachuter, broke the record for highest free-fall today. He went up for over 2 hours in a capsule attached to a helium balloon, and, from 128,000 ft. above the Earth's surface (approximately 23 miles up) he jumped!

Baumgartner free-falled for 4 minutes and 19 seconds, also breaking the sound barrier (768 miles per hour!) on his way down.

Hmm...maybe Mr. C should try something like this some day! What do you say, Red Bull?
