New World Free Fall Record


Felix Baumgartner fell 24.2 miles before landing safely on earth (NY Times story here).

Used to be people in the US did this sort of thing - now they just come here (Felix is from Austria) to do it...

How sad.

The previous record holder Joe Kittinger, a USAF Captain, had held the record since 1960.
