oh ok well ill change it again, i love the commentary, kittinger had a malfunton in his glove and still managed to have enough protection from space.

"there was no ripple in my suit so it was a very weird feeling."

wow

I never saw it before. Really cool. 20 mile free fall :wee:

If any of you have not made a jump I would encourage you to go. It is very different from what you would expect and well worth the money. My wife and I both have a few jumps and always enjoy going. It is statistically not that dangerous and is a great life experience.

Kittenger was the offical first person to go to space. he just ever got the recognition

It is a great sensation as you free fall to earth. I used to do it but not any more. Keep the feet on the ground now.

i have seen another one with a modern suit, like 120k feet.
