How Is That Possible?
Felix Baumgartner has completed his sky dive from a capsule
that was lifted 128,000 feet by a large helium balloon. He is unharmed and now somewhat of a
hero. Afterwards among his many comments
was that this was harder than he thought it would be.
Really? He rode a
helium balloon into the thin atmosphere where lack of air pressure would make
his blood boil (literally) if he were not wearing a pressure suit, he had to
jump out of the capsule and free fall, he would reach speeds greater than the
speed of sound and he somehow had to land safely.
What exactly was he thinking would be the easy part?
