Near the edge of space, Felix Baumgartner stepped into the void with nothing but a pressurized suit between him and death. Falling from 39,045 meters, he broke the sound barrier at 1,357 km/h and survived a four-minute freefall that pushed human limits forever.

Skydiver Felix Baumgartner jumped from space. He ascended over 24 miles in a helium balloon into the stratosphere and then jumped. Upon his decent he broke the sound barrier, reaching supersonic speeds of 840 mph (Mach 1).

Today we lost a one of a kind person. Felix Baumgartner. The man who sky-jumped from outer space and broke the sound barrier without a plane tragically died in a paragliding accident. Sending all my love to his partner miha schwartzenberg who has been an incredible friend to me and our community. May his memory forever be a blessing.

Record breaking daredevil and proud Zionist Felix Baumgartner (56) died today in a paragliding accident in Italy. Known as “Fearless Felix,” Baumgartner gained international recognition for his 24 mile free fall back to earth from the stratosphere. Felix was also an outspoken ally of the Jewish community, using his platform to condemn the October 7 Massacre by wearing a FCK HMS sticker on his helmet during multiple stunts. Baumgartner is survived by his partner, pro-Jewish activist and Romanian celebrity miha schwartzenberg. 😔🕯️

13 years ago, eight million people watched a man step out of a capsule 39 kilometres above the earth and fall. He hit the speed of sound in 34 seconds. You could hear the sonic boom from the ground. Felix Baumgartner was an Austrian skydiver who had spent years doing things nobody else would try. He once made the lowest parachute jump in history off a statue in Brazil. He crossed the English Channel wearing a carbon fibre wing. But the stratosphere jump almost didn’t happen, and it wasn’t because of the height or the speed. It was the suit. The pressurised spacesuit he had to wear made him so claustrophobic he nearly walked away from the whole project. They had to bring in a psychologist just to get him to keep going. The jump took five years to plan and cost $20 million. On 14 October 2012, a helium balloon the size of 33 football pitches carried him up for two and a half hours in a capsule barely bigger than a phone booth. At the top, the door opened and his visor started fogging. Mission control had to decide whether to call it off. They didn’t. The only voice on the radio was 84-year-old Joe Kittinger, who had done a version of this jump himself 52 years earlier. Nobody else on earth could talk him through it. Kittinger’s last words before the step: “OK, we’re getting serious now, Felix.” He fell for 4 minutes and 19 seconds, reaching 1,357 kilometres per hour. Landed on his feet in the desert. Dropped to his knees. Afterward, Baumgartner said that when you stand up there on top of the world, you become so humble. That it’s not about breaking records anymore. “It’s all about coming home.” Baumgartner passed away in July 2025 at 56.

Extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner, the first skydiver to fall faster than the speed of sound during a 24-mile leap through the stratosphere more than a decade ago, died in a paraglider crash Thursday in Italy. He was 56. This is him speaking after that record jump.

Jason Bateman on Donald Trump and his voters: “At what point do you think the story would change from reporting on the outrageousness of Trump and his actions and instead move to the people that have voted for him twice? It’s the people that have put him there and then put him there again that really deserve a great deal of responsibility and a talking to”

🐿️ I really wanted to rap a song like that with Felix. So, it was my first time performing a full hip-hop song as a unit on stage, and it felt really different. The audience's reaction was also really positive. Felix has such a naturally amazing voice, so I worked on the flow and Felix wrote the Chorus lyrics, which fit perfectly. He really brought the flow to life, and I thought that part was truly impressive.

The Right Stuff (1983) is a sprawling epic tracing the US space program from Chuck Yeager breaking the sound barrier to the Mercury astronauts in orbit. A terrific ensemble cast and a script full of wit balance the film’s soaring heroics.

Today we celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the record-breaking StratEx space jump by former Google executive, pilot, and current Space Perspective board member, Alan Eustace. Eustace, in partnership with Paragon Space Development Corporation©—at the time, led by Space Perspective Founders Jane Poynter and Taber MacCallum and included several other, now-current Space Perspective employees—worked together to break world records with this jump. Together, they created a zero-pressure balloon to carry Eustace to 41,422 meters (~135,890 feet), as well as a pressurized suit to keep him safe on ascent into and descent out of the stratosphere. On this jump, Alan broke the FAI record for exit altitude (previously held by Felix Baumgartner during the Red Bull Stratos jump), and set the records for distance fallen with a drogue device and maximum vertical speed with a drogue device. Beyond breaking records, the suit and systems developed were important in furthering technology for stratospheric exploration. StratEx Record Stats: Exit Altitude - 41,422 meters (~135,890 feet) Distance of fall with a drogue - 37,623 meters (~123,435 feet) Maximum vertical speed with drogue - 1,320 km/h (~820 mph) If you're interested in learning more about the record-breaking jump, check out "14 Minutes from Earth", a great documentary that goes in depth on the StratEx program. #alaneustace #stratex #spacedive #worldrecords #safety #design #engineering.
