Live: Felix Baumgartner attempts supersonic Space Jump

**Stardust** · 10-14-2012, 11:55 AM

Live on the Discovery Channel right now. Jump is scheduled around 1:30 but you can watch the climb right now.

Felix Baumgartner will once again attempt to break the world record for the highest, and fastest free fall in history on Sunday, Oct. 14.

During his fall from 23 miles up in space he would break the speed of sound. He will do this with the help of a 3000-pound capsule and a high-tech suit.

You can also watch it here, if you don't have discovery channel.

Red Bull has been getting all these nut jobs to do crazy stuff like this lately.

**Stardust** · 10-14-2012, 06:36 PM

It was truly enthralling to watch. I cannot imagine free falling from 24.5 miles at over 700 MPH!!!

**toussaints** · 10-14-2012, 08:07 PM

im glad that parachute opened up before he became one with the earth

**nky** · 10-14-2012, 08:42 PM

He sure would have made a large imprint on the earth

**OffTheHook** · 10-15-2012, 12:03 AM

^Wouldn't have had any need to bury him...lol.

**RunItUpTheGut** · 10-15-2012, 01:17 AM

What a nut sack on this guy.

Remember........Red Bull gives you wings.......lol

**LeeCoUKFan** · 10-15-2012, 09:09 PM

I saw this and it was absolutely insane!! I don't see how the guy didn't pass out when the capsule was spinning end over end at something like 500 mph!! This guy is obviously not normal in any way!:insane:

He was out of the capsule when you saw the spinning. That was him spinning, during free fall, after he jumped out. He jumped out of the capsule at the edge of outer space.

As to your avatar, I guess I wasn't the only one that watched Bob paint, back in the 70's-80's. On KET, nonetheless. :Thumbs:

Oh ok, well either way, I don't see how he didn't pass out. He looked fine and acted like he had just gotten out of a car and not a 120,000 ft free fall after he landed and took his helmet off.
