A jump from the edge of space.

[poppingpro40]

The reporter said no man has ever done this before........ this guy did it in 1960

/watch?feature=player_embedded­&v=xE71aKXjss0

Get your facts straight dickhead

[garun25]

дебилы вы пендосные,прости господи

[perfectsnake6969]

That's only until he enters the lower atmosphere cuz by then the air will start to slow him down

[nutkins112]

Wouldn't deploying the chute stop him so fast that he would sustain injuries? I mean if he's going the speed of sound...

[breakyourfear]

Yhea....when was this supposed to happen?

[kukenjitsu]

when is he doing this?

[YDSproductions]

whats her name

[TrueMooo]

Wait hold on, What if he gets hit by a plane, or a bird! If he hits something while he`s traveling at MACH 1 he will most likely be killed instantly...

[SuliemanTheGreat]

It was 102K feet!

[burtoncustom3]

Kittinger did it 51 years ago, and now one else since? Straight up boss.

[trebor1171]

The record is still set at 100 000 feet, he hasn't jumped yet

[KyleJPie10]

Did he ever do it?

[mariotubes1]

So that was 2008 Did he finally did it or maybe the Austrian of redbull ?... I dont think the record got broken since the 60's ... !)

[RcFlying121]

@dontbeamathew - Terminal velocity is governed by air density, the higher you go, the less dense the air, meaning more speed is required to reach terminal velocity :0)

[TheGeoffrey0]

@RcFlying121 imagine how superman feel when he flys faster than the speed of light.

[sebastionthegreat]

Well, miss reporter, if he doesnt make it he'll be a new satellite.

[realisticHomeboy]

sooopar sornic skaayyydayyvaa

[DontBeAMatthew]

does terminal velocity not apply for people anymore??

[crawforj301]

@DontBeAMatthew They jump from so high, the area is defined as Near Space, and is only a few miles in distance. There is no air, what soever, so the coeeficient for Air Friction is nonexistent. Even though they are falling very fast, they cant even tell how fast they are falling due to the lack of air and lack of noise.

[MThomasAudio]

does anyone have the link for the actually jump he did? really wanna see it!

[redandwhitekite]

already done in the 60's you turd. joe kittinger jumped from 30klms outside the stratosphere. from a helium balloon, mad fecker...\

[HawaiiJuniorCycling]

Not a hot air balloon :/

[BigTigerfan1]

Sounds fun!

[t9snowboarder]

i wonder where he will land

[Ollied]

Did he ever do it?

[iDxCL4N]

Faaahoooooookkkkkk thatt :L

[kiriakos2012]

he hasn't the balls of  cittinger

[XDarXx]

/watch?v=xE71aKXjss0&feature=r­elated this bloke done it already...!

[xXbARnEYateMeXx]

Kittinger needed all that stuff 2!

I think....

But just wasnt as high.

[MegaWickedboy]

be frustrating if he does all that then lands in the middle of a war zone then gets shot by some kid...

[bmw121]

too bad he will hit terminal velocity WAY before he gets to supersonic! he might get up to 150mph no where close to 600+

[FreeRunningHawaii]

@bmw121 at that height wind resistance goes down changing the max terminal velocity because of thinner air.

[HawaiiJuniorCycling]

@bmw121 No air resistance, you dumb shit.

[laikros]

/watch?v=xE71aKXjss0&feature=r­elated The 1st man who tried it !!! He was more crazy because nobody did that before him !

[luisfilipecaldeira]

im scared falling from my bed to the ground.. :s

[zevlosthegreat]

this guy is probaply jumping over LA and lands at Miami

[SenorMatthew]

heh kinda like just cause 2 aye?

[Superpsychicsonicsol]

When you see the curve of the earth, YOU MUST KNOW...

Shit... just... got... real...

[SgtTwinkleToes]

I want to do that... With a wing suit and land half way across the world. :D

[Jiglobil1]

kittinger did 102k up

[thecow777]

@Jiglobil1

and this guys doing 120k up

[Jiglobil1]

@thecow777 yeh that was my point, because everyone was saying kittinger already did it.

[TritonDenis]

Miles, feets... damn, why isn't in meters as all normal world?

[PaoloGiacchetta]

Sorry for my english but i can't say it in english.. i would like to say it in italian and i hope that u can use the translator for understand me.

Questo video è vero, l'uomo che si gettò da 31km d'altezza raggiunge una velocità di 989km/h in caduta libera, dove, a 15.000 metri d'altezza ha aperto il paracadute per un malore

[WatsupBroh]

so did this guy do it or not?

[zer0dahero]

Stupid news woman (had to be a woman)... just as soon as she said "no human had every travel so fast outside an aircraft" she mentions Kittinger, who is a human, and did just that decades ago.

[jaffey2006]

@zer0dahero She was right about that, this new guy did travel faster than Kittinger. She didn't say that the new guy was the first one to do it, so what's the issue?

[cebrowski]

@zer0dahero She was referring to traveling at 700 mph. Kettinger didn't get to 700 MPH.

[Kakhaufe]

the poor Camera Man

[ogicabp4u]

I wonder how high you can jump from space without going SPLAT!!! into the atmosphere??

[ogicabp4u]

she asks why...

well if you go up in a space ship such as Virgin Galactic you need an escape route if the spaceship fails. You can fairly easily jettison from any craft in space but you can't very easily from an commercial airliner.

Skydiving from space would probably be the only choice.

[5Element4]

where's the actual video of him jumping... this is just like a trailer.

[ghstar101]

So this was ages ago. What happened to him? He obviously never finished?

[vatnec]

and the camera? what happened with the camera?

[killuminatii1]

There must be two names on the record label. He and the cameraman.

[TheMakerHimself]

@killuminatii1 lmfao

[XiLeStudio]

Chuck Norris can free fall form Mars using his Ball as a parachute.

[bioniclemaster1]

@XiLeStudio no he cant.

[ogicabp4u]

@XiLeStudio ...correction ...using his Scrotum Sack as a parachute..

[paddys1888]

he would get serious ball pain when his parachute opens

[Anthony883]

What the fuck? 1. Shouldn't he be VAPORIZED? 2. 120 IS TERMINAL VELOCITY. ayahyay..

[kmw1191]

@Anthony883 terminal velocity is 120mph with air resistance. at 100k feet there is no air, therefore no air resistance, without doing anything he will slow down to 120mph as he gets closer to the earth where there is air

[Anthony883]

@kmw1191 he should still burn right..

[kmw1191]

@Anthony883 not quite, you only burn up upon re-entry of the atmosphere, which is at 170k feet, he was jumping from the middle of the stratosphere and as long as they dont try to enter that they would be fine

[mojokiller720]

How will he reach 700mph? Isn't the terminal velocity of a human much less?

[Fookananer]

@mojokiller720 terminal velocity is completely contingent in the amount of mass that pushing back, in this case the "air" is 1/50th as dense as it is down at the surface

[Anthony883]

@Fookananer His organs would be pushed back HARD.. doesn't matter hes still fucked.

[Raven1024]

@Anthony883 No they won't it's been done before.

[jakedude11]

HAHAHA wtf is up, with that MILF and the way she talks????super sawwwnic, ssskkkeeeyyyyy diiieeyyyyvvveeee" "fap fap fap fap fap"

[PatrikLarssonRang]

What if he'd start to float away into space? xD

[jakedude11]

@PatrikLarssonRang he would have no option but to fall back to earth with all the bricks he just shit :P

[CommanderScofield123]

i wonder how they get at the edge of earth.....you can't go there with a simple plane..!!:O

[TheHyroi]

@CommanderScofield123 Helium Balloon.

[DookNun]

I know ther'es a lot going on in this video and it should be the last thing I'm thinking of... but who the hell calls their child Nina Nanar?

[xserbia97]

@DookNun an idiot

[weepaul1985]

joe kittinger jumped from 102000 feet. this guy is goin 23000 more. hes got balls

[Tree0rnament]

@weepaul1985 Kittinger did it in 1960, though...

[elijahvivio1996]

but kittinger did it LIKE A BOSS

[Derek70214]

*yawn* it's been done.

[13755562]

10000 feet is the limit where you cannot breathe without supplements. 15000ft is the service ceiling of a Cessna 172. What plane is that at 0:43 that can go to the "edge" of space? BTW, our upper atmosphere extends to 400km.

[sixt6mattstang]

@13755562 She says that that jump was from 13,000ft.

[barthoedemaker]

@13755562 sr71 could go very high

[Raven1024]

@barthoedemaker & @13755562 SR-71's flight ceiling is 85,000 feet.

[HVpeppenhiem]

I certainly hope he's not jumping from a hot AIR balloon.

[VrOOm1337]

When Kittinger jumped, he hit 1000 kilometers per hour.

[TheLolNOU]

Chuck norris jumped from hell over to heaven.

[HackerGuitarist]

@TheLolNOU The Norris jokes started in 1994 .. is that the best you can come up with in 2011?

[k0stas83]

chuck norris jumped from I.S.S.!

[LucasPrada1]

terminal velocity is only reached once you hit the lower atmospheres...

[Melimo]

Um for all you people complaining about mentioning Joe Kittinger, until this guy actually jumps from 120k ft, which he STILL hasn't done to this date, Joe Kittinger will forever be the awesomest man on earth behind Chuck Norris.

[eRev21]

I like how they play youtube's vid of kittinger's jump in the background for much of the report. You can hear that Moby remix very faintly in the background for a lot of it.

[Tlow187]

So this was three years ago .........never heard nothing............did he float off or what? :P

[piersremus]

Record making jump???? what the fuck are they on about????

Joe Kittinger has done this way back!

[KDALove]

@piersremus Yes, but they're planning to beat his record. This one is set for 120,000 feet.

[remiedog]

I think the camara man break the record

[doddy321]

wow, all these people going on about joe kittinger already doing it she talks about him at 1:15 saying he is the current holder jumping from 102,000 feet, this guy is going to 120,000 feet, even when the video tell you the facts people still go on and try to make a point/ argument ........... worst trolls ever, what the betting the people who are talking about joe kittinger only watched the 1st 20sec before typing

[greycolumbus]

It doesn't beg the question, it raises the question.

[morbidseth]

joe kittinger jumped fell 4 6 minutes straight......

[MrSimsFry]

i always wanted to know why can nasa spend some much money on aircrafts and other stuff... but they always send people to space with these shitty cameras.....

[therichm10]

BULLSHIT JOE KITTINGER ALLREADY BROKE IT!!!!!!!!

[whateveryounub]

Sandra Sully FTW

[Chakdegirl]

Did u hear the reporter call her name in the end? LMAO.....NEENEE NAANAA.....

[batousicoltz]

wait, what does the little pully thingy do- *splat* nevermind

[Mycophilliac]

A liquid in a vacuum has a lower boiling point than when the liquid is at atmospheric pressure.

"In a perfect vacuum any liquid will boil at extremely low temperatures. As for water in space, there are other things at work besides the

vacuum. Space is very, very cold, only a few degrees above absolute

zero. Even though there is a vacuum, water will freeze into a solid in

space. If liquid water is exposed to outer space, it boils violently

and then immediately freezes solid"

[paddyskate]

NINA-NANA!

[TERRANG0D]

@paddyskate NINA NANA FTW!

[HarryDavisMusic]

did he died

[39hige1]

@HarryDavisMusic no

[evanandodd]

Joe Kittinger already did this!

[TymesRhymes]

@evanandodd Yeah but this is about 18,000 feet more.

[iHeardYouLiekThem]

@evanandodd No, I'm pretty sure he jumped from 103,000 feet.

[9oozFgl8]

@evanandodd aahhh but he jumped from 102 thousand feet!! Steve Truglia is trying to jump from 120 thousand feet =_=

[azynkron]

@evanandodd Yes, they mentioned that in the video.. Thanks for repeating it, Captain Obvious.

[cityisonfire1]

@evanandodd 102,000 feet

[EPICT0ASTER]

@evanandodd he's breaking his record. or at least seeking to.

[matt876mma]

@evanandodd Didnt you hear the reporter, kittinger did it from 100,000 feet, this guy is doing it from 120,000.

[realisticHomeboy]

He jumped from 120000 feet. Space is defined to start at 100km = 328000 feet. He only went little more than a third of the way.

[c4nea]

@evanandodd if you watched the whole video youd see that they discuss that...

[MGPalex99]

yeah, but the other guy went up in a hot air balloon you went up in a plain.

[sjerseyb856]

@MGPalex99 plane

[InvisibleMajority]

Your body won't boil instantly, not even your fluids will. You could float around space naked for a few minutes before you would 1. get burns from the radiation and 2. get decompression sickness. You could even move your diaphragm to try to breath, you simply won't be able to inflate your lungs.

[monkynutzuk]

finger my rusty poo hoop xxx

[longcatisfat]

@monkynutzuk yeah

[monkynutzuk]

@longcatisfat you trooper ;)

[MrZ359]

Okay I'm from Louisiana (in America ) and I think talkin bout the british people mean isn't nice sorry.

[abonawal2009]

he is very brave

[warl3k1]

Haha he didn't do it lamo

[EpicNoobBoyTV]

He can't. His body will boil instantly at that hight, and he has to wear a special suit if he is going to do that.

[liamdudeeee]

@EpicNoobBoyTV how the hell will his body boil? the video clearly said at that height the temperature will be -70 Celsius. Space isn't exactly a hot place.

[WiryOak]

@liamdudeeee but the going outa space is.. dipshit.

[liamdudeeee]

@WiryOak he isnt going to outa space you idiot. he is going to the edge of space. still in our atmostphere. and no outa space is not hot you idiot, its absolutely freezing.

[WiryOak]

@liamdudeeee Read your messages, i don't want to embarrass you to much =]

[liamdudeeee]

@WiryOak sorry to break it too you but your the one who should be embarrassed if you think space is boiling hot. read a book, seriously.

[SuperAngelo13]

wouldnt his skin rip off at 700 mph?

[JerryFromNewJersey]

@SuperAngelo13 clothes atleast, he wouldnt be able to handle the pressure of 700mph free falling

[yerty2000]

@JerryFromNewJersey *sighs* he will only reach those speeds in very thin atmosphere. As the atmosphere thickens, he will slow down - gradually. By the time he reaches 11,000 ft he will be travelling at no more than 100-135mph. His clothes will not 'rip off'. And even when he is supposedly supersonic, the speed of sound will be lower at those altitudes due to the reduced pressure.

[itsallovernowWD]

@yerty2000 gravity pulls him down at an acceleration of -9.8 m/s^2

[yerty2000]

@itsallovernowWD very good. now factor in wind resistance

[googler69er]

no human has ever gone that fast without an aircraft?? well err .. captain joe kittinger did so this is bollocks

[JaneyOneMil]

If you people are going to argue, at least get his name right: Joseph Kittinger.

[DestroyTheseWalls]

man that takes balls

[ILuv2troll]

wow this guy needs to do it or shut the fuck up. You think Michael Kittinger was talking about it before he did it? NO because that shit was fuckin TOP SECRET! He was on equipment that was never even used before...Typical thinking he can top an AMERICAN legend simply by diving at a few thousand more feet? Give me a break. and did he ever do it? No, therefore since my name is Steve, I can accomplish as much as this asshole simply by talking about it. FUCK YOU EUROS

[Nonphixion2]

@ILuv2troll Yeah...."Sometime next year..." was the reply I got whenever I asked dad if we could go to Disneyland... :*(

[nanoling]

@ILuv2troll

I'm sorry, i couldn't hear you over the noise from my healthcare.

[nanoling]

@ILuv2troll fuck you right back, you toothless redneck bastard.. piss off back to your banjo!

[ILuv2troll]

@nanoling im gonna put a fuckin hot air balloon on my trailer and do it again!!!! Just to show you fuckerz what's up!!!

[Trollingwithmyhomies]

@nanoling america did it first

[dhudson369]

it will never be allowed like the redbull stratos jump

[MOEclique83]

he probably pussied out , can u imagine that shit , how it would keep going up , and up and up , it would seem like forever until its time to jump

[OffNation]

@MOEclique83 A man already did this back in like the 1950's before the apollo missions

[MOEclique83]

@OffNation Michael Kittinger 1960 102,000 feet. Yea I know. You should type that in at the top. They have it all on film.

[masternoob1911]

and i thought kittinger's jump at 102 000 was big, this guy's doing it at 120 000!

[puttinonahappyface]

damn if he gets the sweats at that height it'll freeze to his skin

[MsExtremesports]

what about terminal velocity?

[MeatJackn]

@MsExtremesports Relative to the amount of air resistance... there is barely any that high.

[smeghead666]

@MsExtremesports Terminal velocity is dependant on air pressure, the less dense the air is to push against you the faster you can go, more dense is slower. Hence why you could say that water has a much lower terminal velocity than air

[cLaX1227]

@MsExtremesports terminal velocity only exist's where there is air he was in the stratus sphere where there is no air p.s. terminal velocity is because of wind resistance if there was no air and you were in free fall forever you would infinitely get faster and faster

[aritra13]

@MsExtremesports The terminal velocity is much higher than the regular 120-140 mph tat a much greater height due to the air being way thinner.

[zackjackzeke1]

@MsExtremesports terminal velocity its caused when the air resistance equals the force of gravity, basic physics. This guy is jumping from so high up, the air is so thin, causeing little to no air resistance.

[dancockfield]

@MsExtremesports depends on the shape u are as you fall



[cartmanisafatninja]

@MsExtremesports at the height he would be at (the outer stratosphere) there is no air, therefore no wind resistance, therefore no terminal velocity. for at least a few kilometres

[TheAngryPirateSays]

@MsExtremesports Theres less air up there.



[Qwertybobz3]

@MsExtremesports What about it?

[wtf7894]

@MsExtremesports he will be able to go faster than what is allowed in earths atmosphere because he is outside of earth's atmosphere. There is way less air resistance when he is closer to space, and that is why he will be able to achieve such great speeds. However, once he does come closer to earth his speed will stabilize.

[InfernalxOFxBlaze]

my cat can do that and land on its mother fucking feet.

[0iMySize]

Chuck Norris doesnt fall to the earth, the earth moves towards him when he sky dives

[easyworship]

Solid Snake could jump from higher altitudes

[theboxmike]

@easyworship pfft master chief jumps from orbit wearing no parachute

[MetalxXxMayhem]

And people still think the world is flat.....HA!!!

[xXLifeObservedXx]

@MetalxXxMayhem Nobody thinks that...

[iliavko]

Erm.. so did he jump?.. i didnt see anything about it lol

[AKAtheA]

@Shuyin1337 that's just the problem... if you jump wrong, you end up in rotation and die (centrifugal force) before you hit the ground.
