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.

Great viewing thought he was gone when he was spinning

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"

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.

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.

It wasn't far enough up to be able to go to a different country, plus think of how big America is
