Not a lawn chair and pellet rifle, but pretty impressive.

Breaking a 52 year old record.  Oddly enough, I remember reading in my Weekly ready in elementary school about the first jump.

  Great feat to pull off and live.  I bet it was noisy with all the wind.

According to Red Bull Stratos's website, this was not the record jump. It was prelim jump #2, and was from 96,640ft. The record is 102,900.

Yep, except he won't hear much... All the sound will be behind him in the shock wave if he succeeds!
