I thought he dead when he started flipping out of control, I was so scared TBH.
But he was O.K and I have to congratulate him for having balls that big.0 -
Great viewing thought he was gone when he was spinning0
-
This is what he said before he jumped:
"Sometimes you have to get up really high to see how small you are. I'm going home now"0 -

Watched it live on BBC News channel - amazing stuff. Must have been very scared when he went into the spin. Just seen the news conference on BBC News Channel and he seems quite calm about it all.0

he does jumps like that for a living and i think they were saying on the youtube feed that he's been in jumps before where hes spun loads and had no control and had the sun in his eyes etc. This seems pretty calm in comparison.ME14addick said:Watched it live on BBC News channel - amazing stuff.

Felix Baumgartner, who once broke the world record for the highest skydive by jumping from the edge of space, has died in a motorised paragliding accident in Italy.
The 56-year-old fell to the ground near the swimming pool of a hotel while flying over the village of Porto Sant'Elpidio in the eastern Marche region.
Porto Sant'Elpidio's mayor, Massimiliano Ciarpella, said reports suggested he may have suffered a sudden medical issue mid-air.
The Austrian daredevil made headlines in 2012 when he broke the world record - and the sound barrier - for the highest-ever skydive, jumping from a balloon more than 39km (128,000 ft) up in the stratosphere.
