Next Wednesday, skydiver Felix Baumgarter will attempt the highest and fastest free fall in history. “Fearless Felix “ and his team have been carefully planning this record breaking attempt for more than five years. This mind boggling 23 mile high leap will be from a balloon hoisted capsule over Roswell, New Mexico. Extreme care has been taken in the development and engineering of a pressurized suit and helmet for protection as he tries to go supersonic. Yes…that’s 690 mph or what is more commonly referred to as Mach 1. During the descent, the temperature could be as low as minus 70. Baumgartner's suit will be all he has between his body and the extreme cold.
If he succeeds, it will be accomplished 65 years after Chuck Yeager, flying an experimental rocket plane became the first human to go faster than the speed of sound. Now that is absolutely smokinggg fassssst !
