And a very brave man today announced his intention to make history to become the first person to break the sound barrier without having an aircraft around him. Felix Baumgartner plans to free fall from the edge of the space, 23 miles up, wearing a special pressurized suit with oxygen and a parachute that everyone hopes will open as he nears the earth’s surface. We last saw him jumping from some of the tallest buildings and bridges on earth. So lack of courage is not the issue here. No word yet on the exact date of the new jump.
Please correct my mistakes. Thanks.
