I didn't think there was any air at 111,000 feet. What caused all the turbulence?

Dumb ass second top comment lawl

It looks like the parachute kept collapsing because the rope line was all twisted at the top.

There isn't enough air at 111,000 feet to create that much turbulence. (If you can find a video of Kitinger jumping without music over it or anything you'll see what I mean).

why don't film my 10000000 ft dick?
-
shit shit shit shit and shit + shit = much shit
-
Just for the uncertain, air decreased by 1hpa per 30ft in elevation, 1013 is average at MSL (mean sea level) cbf doing maths but im sure there would still be air at that altitude
-
what kand of camera ?

@Mufaso1000 Balloons work by displacing the air around them with a lighter gas, so they always have to be in air or they'd fall like anything else. It's incredibly thin up there though, and offers little resistance so when the balloon bursts the payload will fall at an impressive rate, and at high speeds even thin air will cause the turbulence seen in the video.
