This newly released footage of Felix Baumgartner's space jump is INSANE

[DA 20]

In October 2012, Felix Baumgartner leapt from a balloon floating 24-miles high and fell to Earth, breaking the sound barrier on the way down. Now, newly released footage shows in unprecedented detail what Baumgartner saw on his record-breaking descent.

All I can say is that guy must have a tough time walking with the set of nards he has.

How about the guy in 1960 in opening clip? Talk about having a set.......lot's of unknowns and relatively new technology at the time.

Kittinger was also CAPCOM for this mission.
