102,800 foot jump from space

This is a video of the first person jumping from the edge of space. He rode a helium balloon all the way up then jumped out. The audio is a little loud on this vizz but I feel the romance that it adds to the visual makes it worth it.

When he was falling, he said that there was no sound for the first bit of time because there is of course no air up there. Must be a lonely feeling falling from the edge of space and not being able to hear or feel anything.
