Did they give an estimate on the jump time?

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement.

It's live on Discovery channel

SomeGuy if I had a beer in the house I would have one with ya, but I'm out.

I have a window open in the R.I.P. section............

I can't find the Discovery Channel. Where the Hell is SHARK?

Here's some of the problems:

The jump poses many risks. Any contact with the capsule on his exit could tear the pressurized suit. A rip could expose him to a lack of oxygen and temperatures as low as 70 degrees below zero. It could cause potentially lethal bubbles to form in his bodily fluids, a condition known as "boiling blood."

He could also spin out of control, causing other problems.


Scientists also don't know what happens to the human body when it breaks the sound barrier since it's never happened before.

And there's this:

To prevent a potentially fatal condition called ebullism, Baumgartner must wear a custom-made space suit and helmet. Although the suit, based on those worn by high-altitude reconnaissance pilots, is designed to maximize maneuverability and visibility, it constricts his movement and vision. He'd never worn a pressurized space suit before, and he felt the claustrophobia — which, according to a New York Times account, was so severe it brought on panic attacks — threatened to bring the mission to a screeching halt.

KS is cheering for a splatter. Dude...

Yeah, I am going to say this guy has a death wish. This is his 3rd time doing shit like this, how many times do you tempt fate?

I wonder what kind of ratings Discovery Channel is getting with this going up against the NFL?

I dunno, but I bet FreeAjent has the answer.

Imagine if he lands on a pawn shop or a storage unit. Or a swamp region peopled by colorful rednecks.

Trouble with the heat in his visor. Not good.

Ok, it's time for predictions. I say he spins out of control, one of the parachutes opens prematurely, and he lands on the moon.

He'll have a knee

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement.

I wonder if Vegas has odds on this jump.
