I've been keeping my eye to this all day.
Very exciting.
There's been a huge amount of planning, but still very many unknowns, especially when he himself breaks the sound barrier.
I have to admire his self-confidence and motivation. Great

He breaks the sound barrier in relation to where we are on the planet but not if you compare it to the amount of mass he's passing through .... kinda cheating if you ask me .... I reckon he should try wing walking on Concorde

Postponed again due to wind conditions.
It was reported that the launch is the most dangerous part of the project

Just watched it, was pretty impressive. I was at the penultimate shuttle launch in Titusville last year, and reminded me how impressive and in some ways crude space travel is.

Mr. Eustace was carried aloft without the aid of the sophisticated capsule used by Mr. Baumgartner or millions of dollars in sponsorship money. Instead, Mr. Eustace planned his jump in secrecy, working for almost three years with a small group of technologists skilled in spacesuit design, life-support systems, and parachute and balloon technology.
He carried modest GoPro cameras aloft, connected to his ground-control center by an off-the-shelf radio.
Nice find joe, very interesting.
He certainly has some guts to keep things as simple as he did. Just dangling from a helium balloon
