oh no his visor is smoking up!!!

I turned it on 10 seconds into the jump so I missed him actually jumping :okay:

He almost reached speed of sound :(

He didn't break the sound barrier?

mb_ 10-14-2012 10:18 AM

AND HE'S ON THE GROUND!!!

radioman 10-14-2012 10:18 AM

well he only reached an estimated 729 mph so thats not breaking the sound barrier by about 39~mph

Lets see if they can get a more accurate reading.

dude sooo happy for him

shawnly1000 10-14-2012 10:20 AM

Awaiting confirmation on whether he hit Mach 1

OTG-ZR2 10-14-2012 10:22 AM

Like a baus

radioman 10-14-2012 10:22 AM

At sea level its 768 but I think in free fall if he reached 690 he would have reached it. I'm not sure lets just sit and wait!

yogenfruz 10-14-2012 10:36 AM

May not have broken the longest freefall record, but damn, to say you jumped from >24miles up... Insane.

Actually got goosebumps up until he jumped, then my jaw just dropped.

Apparently he broke the barrier.

twitchyzero 10-14-2012 11:36 AM

RacingMetro92 10-14-2012 11:45 AM

Here's the first minute or so. Long enough to see that he breaks mach 1.
