redbull jump

Felix Baumgarter jumped from a space balloon and broke the speed of sound. That took a lot of science. I'm not sure how he could go so fast while spinning but it's amazing. I wonder how fast he could have gone if he hadn't spun out of control and stayed aerodynamic.  I also wonder if the scientists assigned to this project or something knew that he would reach that speed. Nonetheless it was a cool thing and I'm glad he did it.
