Red Bull High Altitude Skydives
Hi,
The video below was taken at a Minnesota Soaring Club member meeting a week or 2 ago. Brian Utley is a soaring pilot and also (as a hobby) validates world records for the FAI. He was there for one of Steve Fossett's around the world flights in the jet. The video shows Brian giving an overview of the Red Bull high-altitude skydive jumps so far. I found it fascinating. Their goal is to set records for the highest altitude jump, and also for the highest speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CAMTl6c-Ks Paul Remde
