Default Felix Baumgartner - 23 Mile Free Fall
I am tuning in tomorrow to see him go for the Speed of Sound!

Skydiving from 23 miles above Earth is certainly not for the faint of heart. That’s what 43-year-old Austrian daredevil Felix Baumgartner will set out to accomplish this Tuesday morning (Oct. 9).

With only a pressurized spacesuit and a parachute, Baumgartner hopes to become the first person to break the speed of sound during free fall. If successful (i.e. survives), he will set a new record for the highest and fastest human free fall in history.
