I was thinking the same. How many can claim to have gone at that speed, kept safe by a spacesuit? :p

That's a good topic, but the real question should be; Who Cares?

I'd rather sit in living room for the whole day and stare out of the window, hoping to catch a glimpse of my neighbour's cat walking through my yard. Much more exiting, beautiful and culturally important.

I guess your not much of a projectionist.  Some people have the ability to watch others do something incredible and place themselfs in that persons shoes, thus partially experiencing the range of emotions of the person that is actually doing it.

I'm surprised, that was a beautiful jump - he sure had a nice spin going there too. But, oh well.

Im guessing youre talking about your neighbors cat?

Did he brake the sound barrier?

I think they are confirming it to make it official. But yeah I think he was going 728 mph.

Saw it live! it was breathtaking! AMAZING!

It was very scary when he started spining out of control....uff

That guy is insane!!! :D

Well, look who's mister full package.

For the ladies (and some guys too ) .
