Glückwunsch an Felix Baumgartner zum erfolgreichen Sprung vom Rande des Weltraums und danke für einen verdammt spannenden Sonntagabend.
The Red Bull Stratos team says Baumgartner has broken the record for the highest manned balloon flight, having surpassed 113,740 feet on his way to roughly 128,000 feet, and that should also set the record for the highest freefall. His freefall time of 4 minutes, 22 seconds does not break the record for the longest freefall (4:36). It remains to be determined whether he went supersonic or broke the speed record, but he was freefalling at more than 600 mph.
