If I recall, this is just about the amount of time the doomed crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger (God Bless 'em) fell before crashing into the Atlantic. No doubt Kittenger and Redbull had a much better time of it, and it must indeed seem like a very long time.He didn't break Kittinger's record of 4:36 minute free fall. He had 4:22 min.
800 mph.Top speed attained anyone??
I think he broke Mach 1...
Holy shit! Kittinger did it wearing his Carhartt's, work boots and winter leather gloves. His communications package is the wood box of 4 index card drawers strapped to his ass.
Carharts and orange duct tape! And the Red Bull folks sprung for a million-dollar pressurized space suit? So tell me just who is the bravest (craziest) man.Holy shit!
