Stuntman plans dive from outer space to break sound barrier

By Tiki God • Images • 10 Feb 2012

The project is called Red Bull Stratos and features Austrian stuntman Felix Baumgartner, who will jump from 120,000 feet, or roughly 23 miles above the Earth. The coordinators of the project believe that Baumgartner may even become the first space diver to break the sound barrier. The jumper will travel to the edge of space powered by an air balloon carrying a tiny capsule vehicle.

Why are people always jumping out of perfectly good aircraft?
