December 9, 200619 yr Imagine how scary it would be jumping down at the speed of sound :D You'd die on the way down. Very quickly, so you wouldn't experience much of it. Me doing staff.
December 9, 200619 yr Author why did he survive? it took him 4 minutes to get down "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace.

December 9, 200619 yr why did he survive? it took him 4 minutes to get down I didn't click the link. It would just seem you'd die on the way down, especially on impact? Me doing staff.
December 9, 200619 yr Author he got up their in a balloon, looked around then jump off and it didn't look very fast but it was, then the air was thicker and he used hes parachute. im surprised he didn't die. you should watch it, amazing footage "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace.

December 9, 200619 yr why did he survive? it took him 4 minutes to get down I didn't click the link. It would just seem you'd die on the way down, especially on impact? Why would he jump down without a parachute? :? He wouldn't :) Gamertag: King Arizona

December 9, 200619 yr My teacher told me about this, he said this guy was nuts, but brilliant. He had to wait until he hit the atmosphere before you could open his chute, or wouldnt work. He also told us a story about how the glove on one of his suits came off and the pressure in his hand was greater than the pressure outside of it, so his hand blew up like 3x the size it usally is. apparently this guy was awesome ;) C'YEA H0'KAY

December 9, 200619 yr How would he have not burned up when he passed through the atmosphere like a meteor? Pretty interesting though Last.fm: http://www.last.fm/user/Aaronm14/MY FAVORITE BAND:http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu ... d=64310717And the bible is the big book of lies, call me a racist if you must.
December 9, 200619 yr How would he have not burned up when he passed through the atmosphere like a meteor? Pretty interesting though Meteors have tangent velocities in the kilometers per second. This guy jumped off a balloon, so he basically didnt have any. Gamertag: King Arizona

December 9, 200619 yr yea iv seen the vid in physics, its very insane. free fall for 4 minuetes is just crazy Does he have the world record for longest free fall? :| Cause I know there was this Russian fighter pilot in the 2nd World War that bailed out of his plane and his parachute failed and he went straight down. He survived cause he landed in very deep snow. The Enrichment Center reminds you that the weighted companion cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.

December 10, 200619 yr Now correct me if Im wrong but wasnt Yuri Gagarin the first man in space and wasnt that in 1961? He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus (525 BC - 456 BC)
December 10, 200619 yr Now correct me if Im wrong but wasnt Yuri Gagarin the first man in space and wasnt that in 1961? This guy was only the first man in the thermosphere. Yuri Gagarin was actually in SPACE. the russians are the best! Hands down!
December 10, 200619 yr Now correct me if Im wrong but wasnt Yuri Gagarin the first man in space and wasnt that in 1961? no i think this guy was the first person to get into the mesosphere *correct me if im wrong* and he was then in orbit of earth rather then in orbit of the sun. (like the moon) Started new account: flipflop v2
