Loading ...On August 16, 1960, Joseph Kittinger jumped his last all Excelsior jump, doing so from an air-thin height of 102,800 feet (31,334 meters). From that nearly 20 miles altitude, his tumble toward terra firma took some 4 minutes and 36 seconds. Exceeding the speed of sound during the fall, Kittinger used a small stabilizing chute before a larger, main parachute opened in the denser atmosphere. He safely touched down in barren New Mexico desert, 13 minutes 45 seconds after he vaulted into the void.
The jump set records that still stand today, among them, the highest parachute jump, the longest freefall, and the fastest speed ever attained by a human through the atmosphere. Somewhat in contention is Kittinger’s use of the small parachute for stabilization during his record-setting fall. Roger Eugene Andreyev, a Russian, is touted as holding the world’s free fall record of 80,325 feet (24,483 meters), made on November 1, 1962.
Guy Skydiving A Bicycle – AND Landing It
This is some really awesome footage of a guy who skydives a bicycle. Plus it’s not just like he dives out with it, does some tricks, then pulls his shoot and lets the bike fall. He actually rides the bike all the way down to the ground under canopy and lands the thing!
